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.

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.

I don’t know about you, but come summertime, the last thing I want to do on a sweltering hot day is fuss over a complicated outfit; I want to wear as little clothing as possible. Accessories, then, become an instant wardrobe hack—hero pieces for tricking others into thinking you’ve put in effort. Jewelry, in particular, has been my daily essential these past few months—specifically, the summer pearl necklace, which has become my surprising go-to.

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.”
