Meghan Markle Is Launching a Workwear Collection to Remind Women "We Are in It Together"

It's no secret that Meghan Markle is a style icon, and thanks to her upcoming workwear collection, women will be able to say they were styled by the Duchess of Sussex herself. Following her recent stint as a guest editor for the September issue of British Vogue, Meghan has partnered with a few of her friends from the fashion world, including Marks & Spencer, Jigsaw, John Lewis, and Misha Nonoo, to create a line of stylish and sophisticated workwear for women in the UK.

Meghan announced the news of her capsule collection in British Vogue, according to royal reporter Omid Scobie on Twitter. "Not only does this allow us to be part of each other's story, it reminds us we are in it together," Meghan told the magazine, per Omid's tweet.

The collection is set to launch later this year, and each item will be sold on a "one-for-one basis," which means that for every item of clothing purchased, another will be donated to a woman in need. Back in January, Meghan became the royal patron of Smart Works, a charity focused on helping unemployed women looking to return to the workforce by providing free clothes and interview training. The "one-for-one" system will directly support Smart Works, helping women regain their confidence and secure the jobs they deserve.

During her visit with the charity earlier this year, Meghan said, "It's not just donating your clothes and seeing where they land, it's really being part of each other's success stories as women." Cheers to that, Meghan!

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

I Wore Sofía Vergara's Viral and Divisive Sneaker Heels - and Actually Sort of Loved Them

Despite what some people may think, the return of sneaker heels - largely attributed to Sara Blakely , the inventor of world-renowned Spanx, and now Sneex - happened by accident. "Our founder did not set out to create a sneaker heel. She set out to create the world's most comfortable high heel and this is where the innovation led her," a brand rep says. Not only are they supportive, they add noticeable bounce to my steps, which actually makes walking in high heels sort of . . . fun? Nevertheless, merely one year in, the company can report that The Tepper in Silver ($595) sold out in just 24 hours after launch and accrued an 11,000-person waitlist. One-third of the brand's customers have already invested in a second pair. And celebrities from Jane Fonda and Sofía Vergara to Reese Witherspoon and Suki Waterhouse have already been spotted wearing them. "The Sneex customer is responding to sneaker heels because they want height and wearability," the S...
