Mindy Kaling Wore a Striped Top From POPSUGAR at Kohl's, So Now We're Wearing Striped Tops From POPSUGAR at Kohl's

Remember on The Office when Mindy Kaling's character, Kelly Kapoor, chanted, "Fashion show! Fashion show! Fashion show at lunch!," after Pam received a box of clothing she ordered online? For some reason, that was the first thing that came to mind the minute I heard Kaling wore a striped shirt from the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's.

Because I love a classically striped top as much as I do a humorous Kelly Kapoor quote, I immediately inserted myself into a fictitious Office scene wherein Kelly regales me with all the reasons she lives for a striped top as I pass through the annex en route to the vending machine. It goes something like this:

She would tell me she just got it. She would twirl in it for me. She would ask me what I think. Before I could answer she would fervently tell me how versatile it is, sharing anecdotes about how she styles it effortlessly with jeans and sneakers, dresses it up with heels and fun jewels, and even lounges around the house in it while she binge-watches Netflix and indulges in an at-home face mask with a glass of wine in hand. She would tell me she owns five or six similar versions because, duh, they're timeless and a woman can never have too many striped shirts in her wardrobe. She would ask me how many striped shirts I own but before I can interject with my response she's telling me that I probably need a few more and now is the time to stock up because, OMG, they're on sale at Kohl's right now and I should act fast or they'll all sell out before Summer when I'll want to be wearing one at the beach, on casual Fridays, and on my upcoming vacation in Paris, because, hello, the Parisians basically invented stripes and I'll totally be mistaken for a local if I wear mine.

[End scene] And, yes, she said that last part all in a single breath.

While my made-up monologue was super fun (it was, wasn't it?!), the point of it was to convey how versatile classically striped tops really are and how we should all own at least one or two. Though Kaling's exact style is no longer available - it debuted in September - I shopped out 11 versions from the current POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's so you can get in on the action and live your best striped top life, just like me and my fictitious gal pal Kelly Kapoor like to do.

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...

Michael Kors has established himself as the go-to designer for all things American glamour, whether that's easy West Coast chic or '80s power bitch, so it was not particularly surprising when he cited the Studio 54-era of New York City as inspiration behind his Fall 2019 collection, shown ...
