Insecure: Molly's Wedding Was a Celebration of New Beginnings and Oscar de la Renta

The epitome of growth. On Dec. 26, Insecure wrapped up its fifth and final season, giving fans closure and characters happy endings in a string of flash-forwards. While the show has been centered around Issa Dee (Issa Rae), it's her group of girls and their professional and personal plot lines that have kept us locked in since 2015, which is why it was so important for the finale to touch on each of them. But we're here to talk about Molly (Yvonne Orji) and Taurean (Leonard Robinson) and their beautiful love story that was complete with a stunning Oscar de la Renta wedding dress.

Fans were ecstatic to see Molly and Taurean tie the knot in a gorgeous European ceremony accompanied by bridesmaids in red dresses, a tear-jerking father-daughter dance, and a beautiful tribute to Molly's late mother. Molly was breathtaking in an Oscar de la Renta fern gown. The strapless embroidered dress featured a sweetheart neckline and a full corset back. And the symbolism of the fern dress did not go unnoticed, as ferns typically embody feelings of new beginnings and hope for the future.

In an Instagram post following the finale, Yvonne gave a shout-out to Molly and Taurean's love story, but also acknowledged that the real full-circle story was between Molly and Issa. "For FIVE seasons, @the_a_prentice told me, 'when Molly finds happiness, the show is over,'" she wrote about a conversation with Insecure show runner Prentice Penny. "Well, he kept his word. @issarae, Molly might have married Taurean, but you will always be her one true love." When Issa helped Molly take off the intricate corset holding up her dress, fans teared up knowing they had been through it all together and have never been stronger. Ahead, check out photos of Molly's radiant Oscar de la Renta fern wedding gown, and get excited for the future of the characters. Now go explore Greece, Molly!

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...

Does Uniqlo Heattech Really Keep You Warm? An Editor Investigates

I live in a perpetual state of being cold. Whether it's 70 degrees or below 17, you're bound to find me wrapped up in a blanket at home or venturing out with a jacket in tow. Growing up in Arizona hasn't exactly prepared me for how to navigate cooler temperatures, which is why I often rely on heavy layering during the winter months to keep myself feeling warm. In the past, this has translated into me dressing like Ralphie's younger brother from "A Christmas Story" - think chunky snowsuits, a double-wrapped wool scarf, and so many layers I'm hardly able to breathe (let alone move around). It wasn't until I was introduced to Uniqlo Heattech gear that I realized lightweight, movable thermals exist. Uniqlo's Heattech line is arguably one of the brand's most popular collections. Loved by shoppers for its wide variety of styles, the capsule boasts warm, insulated pieces that are designed to replicate the effectiveness of a thermal layer without the...

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...
