She’s skeptical of online dating; though she admits to once catfishing people with her friends on a dating app; largely as a social experiment. ‘It didn’t go well. We had some passive-aggressive and some just like aggressive messages, being, like, ‘You’re not real!’ And I was like, ‘And you’re right, I’m not!’ Delete.'”

So as you can see, even celebs are adjusting to the new world and whirl of dating. Nonetheless, catch Thompson’s full interview as well as The Cut’s Fall Fashion preview in their spanking new issue out now.

Runway Fashion: Iris Van Herpen Syntopia Runway Show

Iris Van Herpen Syntopia

Whenever you think of an Iris Van Herpen show you know you are in for masterful drama as well as a level of architectural precision that is light-years ahead of any artisan. The recent Iris Van Herpen Syntopia Runway Show did not disappoint. Exquisite tailoring, imaginative patterns as well as mind-blowing lasercut garments radiantly made their way down the dark, shadowy catwalk.

We can only describe this fashion show in one word, mesmerizing. From gowns that float as if they had sprouted wings or drip from a waterfall; to attire reminiscent of iridescent feathers. The entire Iris Van Herpen Fall 2018 collection is just a divine spectacle to behold.

Designer Iris Van Herpen shared a few words regarding the inspiration beyond this extraordinary show. Iris reveals,

“For ‘Syntopia’ I felt inspired by the intricate echoing work of the artists Studio Drift. Their spatial kinetic installation ‘In 20 Steps’ is constructed of 20 delicate glass wings; that represent all the different steps of flying in an abstract way.

The vivacious glass bird flows in symbiosis with the models while they move over the runway. Their delicate interaction emphasizes the fragility of new worlds living and soaring together.”

Fashionable Mention: Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal from Milan Fashion Week

Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal

We just want to have a fashion sandwich with Dan and Dean Caten! These chic masterminds behind the Dsquared brand have once again showcased stylish ingenuity. How so? Well, for Milan Fashion Week the duo hit the crowd with the Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal. All we can say is, “Yippie-Ky-Ay!”

Fashionable Mention: Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal From Milan Fashion Week

Let’s keep it 99 plus 1… These are not your average sandal heels! For their Dsquared Fall 2018 collection the label marries together the vintage old west with modern flair. Their Cowboy Boot Sandal at first glance resembles a normal cowboy boot with leather, rhinestones, cow hide patterns and other studded detailing. However, the real fun begins with the sandal cut-outs, straps as well as sharp, thin high heel. Bomb.

Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal

Therefore, how can one pair these shoes with garments currently in their closet? You might be surprised, but it honestly would not be hard at all. These sandals will add fire to any Bohemian style dress or skirt. Also, boot cut denim as well as a black pleather/vegan pant will go seamlessly with this Dquared look.

Dsquared Fall 2018 Cowboy Boot Sandal

Furthermore, we are always all for recycling a trend and making it feel fresh. For instance, last year denim suits (as spotted on Kelly Rowland) and jumpsuits (seen on Ciara and Teyana Taylor) heated up the fashion scene. Therefore, do not toss these ensembles out, just make them cool again. Update a denim suit or jumpsuit that you have in a cinch with a pair of these bad boy sandals. By incorporating something new, instantly your clothing with take on a more current impression.

Autumn/Winter Fashion: The Plaid Pant

Fashionable Mention-Plaid-and-Tartan-Pants-2014-2015-For-Women2

Many fashionistas find the autumn and winter seasons to be enjoyable times to be stylish. Usually more layers are needed which means more couture that gets to be modeled (yes, the streets are our personal runways) and incorporated into an ensemble. Sometimes, the power of a great pant can easily get overlooked. Nevertheless, that is why the plaid pant should be a part of your wardrobe during the cooler months.

With plaid you don’t necessarily need to channel 90’s grunge (although we think that would be pretty hot) you can simply think of it as an addition to mixing and matching your favorite fall/winter pieces. Pair a plaid pant with knitwear, blazers, long vests, leather jackets and graphic tees. The overall look is attention-grabbing and effortlessly cool.

Fashion Tip: Since these bottoms can be quite bold, compliment them with more muted and less loud tops.
