In 2006, I started taking Xanax and continued, more rather than less, for the next 17 years. The drug was first prescribed to me after I experienced a panic attack. I had thought that I was dying. My children were two and six years old. We were at home—my husband had gone for the day and the babysitter was late. I started sweating and had this urge to run, to get outside. I didn’t know what was wrong, but my heart felt weird and I didn’t want to die in front of my kids. So I stuffed them in a stroller and went down to the street—West 106th in Manhattan—hoping to intercept the sitter. There she was in the lobby. She took the children. I didn’t explain. On the street, the noises were loud, the light galactic. I think it was summer. I was walking but had no idea where I was going. Fear crawled over me like ants.

In January 1811, Charles Deslondes, a slave living on a plantation in the German Coast Region of the Louisiana Territory led a small army of slaves in an uprising. Marching in military formation toward New Orleans, the army killed at least two people and burned plantation buildings and fields. Louisiana Militia ended the rebellion, which ultimately led to the brutal deaths and treatment of participants in the uprising and the tightening of Slave Codes.

The spring 2025 menswear shows wrapped up a month ago and one of the biggest trends from our male street stylers? Brooches!. While we can thank the 2024 award season and stars like Barry Keoghan and Cillian Murphy for popularizing the trend into the mainstream, we must remember where the brooch resurgence truly began: Pharrell Williams’s first show for Louis Vuitton. On the runway, several looks—from casual denim jackets to dressy tuxedos—were embroidered with pieces of bling.

Thanks to their “back to school” associations, loafers were once considered a winter shoe that you revisited in September, when knitwear comes out of hibernation. However, in recent years they have become a year-round classic, that look just as good with a white sundress or pair of shorts. The spring 2024 collections were awash with loafers, including creative director Sabato de Sarno’s debut at Gucci which had 25 platformed loafers in the line-up.

"Notes on 'Camp'" is a documentary series that follows Sweet Beef Theatre, a fringe theatre collective from London, UK. Their show "Crying Shame" explores the loneliness and vulnerability of queer individuals. In their words - “It’s a cabaret. A wellness journey. A 10 step programme. All about loneliness... I know, how embarrassing.” The series provides insight into the performers' meditative world as they transform into their characters. The title references Susan Sontag's essay "Notes on ‘Camp’" from 1964.

Mariah Kennedy Cuomo and Tellef Lundevall’s romance all started with a college visit. The two first crossed paths in 2012 after Tellef developed a close friendship with two of Mariah’s cousins, Kate Kennedy and Amanda Cole, while they were studying together at Brown University. “The three of them bonded over their shared characteristics,” Mariah explains. “They’re all funny, kind, thoughtful, creative, and game.” Mariah and Tellef first met at her cousin’s apartment on Angell Street in Providence while she was visiting the college as a prospective student during her final year at Deerfield Academy. “That visit cemented that Brown was the right choice for me,” Mariah remembers. “And I also left very interested in Tellef.”

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

Jon M. Chu’s Wicked, starring Cynthia Erivo (as Elphaba) and Ariana Grande (as Glinda), may not be out until late November, but hype for the movie-musical is already at an all-time high. “I’m so looking forward to everyone being able to see what we've created,” Erivo tells Vogue. “I’ve seen it already; I can’t wait to see how people experience it!” The simmering excitement for the film can be attributed, in part, to its two stars’ handful of appearances dressed in character—Erivo in shades of Elphaba green, and Grande in Glinda pinks. The method dressing continued last night at the 2024 Olympic Games opening ceremony, as well: Erivo and Grande shut down the red carpet in two Wicked-inspired ensembles.
