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...

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...

Diaper Shorts Are Back - How to Shop the Controversial TikTok Trend

Of all the street style trends to dominate our FYP and social media feeds in recent years, bloomer shorts seems to be the most bizarre (and ironically one of our top favorites) yet. And who do we have to thank for it? TikTok, of course. In a single scroll on the popular app, you've probably come across the piece multiple times, from those viral Miu Miu briefs to Aritzia's more affordable offerings. Slightly more flirty and risqué than the stomach pudge dress or the fisherman aesthetic , bloomer shorts (aka "diaper shorts") have officially made it to the top of the sartorial food chain. What Are Bloomer Shorts? While the idea of bloomer shorts may seem new or daunting at first, they're far from groundbreaking. Similarly to most trends, the good ol' "everything is new again" concept applies here, as the fad dates back to 1850 when the silhouette was invented as a practical solution for women's health and comfort - eventually grabbing the atten...
