They looked like any other couple as they let their hair down for the weekend. Lauren showed off her toned figure in a white mini dress and threw a trendy black blazer over it for some tailoring. She was every inch the country queen wearing cowboy boots.

Lauren also revealed to
Vogue

‘Practical Magic': Everything you need to remember about this witchy classic before the sequel
Above The 'Practical Magic' house is architecture as aspiration. (Photo: IMDB) Victorian coastal fantasy with a greenhouse kitchen and a garden full of deadly nightshade? The house wasn't real (it was a set built on San Juan Island, Washington), but it remains the blueprint for every Pinterest board titled 'cottage witch goals'. The tower, the herbs, the stained glass windows—it's architecture as aspiration. If your friend group hasn't reenacted this tequila-fueled chaos with a blender and a Stevie Nicks song, are you even close? 'You put the lime in the coconut' became an anthem for slightly unhinged sisterhood, emotional spirals and group exorcisms. You can't think of Practical Magic without humming this song at some point. Detective Gary Hallet (played by a smouldering Aidan Quinn) is the most sensitive man to ever wear a badge. He reads star signs, believes in true love and is literally marked by a celestial constellation that matches Sally's dream man. Fate? Witchcraft? Both? 4. Aunt Jet and Aunt Frances Above Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing are a masterclass in theatrical bohemian elegance. (Photo: IMDB) Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest serve peak 'witchy aunts with mysterious pasts' energy. They make potions, wear purple velvet and are exactly the kind of relatives you pray for when life gets chaotic. (Except that part where they left the sisters to clean up their own mess, only to return home to even bigger madness.) Their wardrobe alone is a masterclass in theatrical bohemian elegance. Above Kidman's wild mane became a visual metaphor for untamable femininity. (Photo: IMDB) Curly, red and absolute chaos—just like her character Gillian. Fans and cosplayers have studied, praised and lovingly replicated it. That wild mane became a visual metaphor for untamable femininity, sisterhood and maybe a little bit of tequila possession. See more: 10 biggest celebrity paychecks for a single film (that we know about) Petals in the wind, herbs in the mortar, chalk circles on hardwood floors. It was witchcraft with a dreamy, DIY vibe. Who didn't want to learn a little kitchen magic after watching this? (Bonus: real witches consulted on set to keep it authentic.) The Owens family curse—that any man who dares love them is doomed—gave us one of the most original romantic setups of the '90s. Instead of chasing after love, Sally tries to avoid it completely until fate (and maybe a little summoning spell) brings Gary to her doorstep. The film had a notoriously tricky production since test audiences didn't like the original tone. Instead, Warner Bros added reshoots and leaned into the rom-com angle. Still, the melancholic-magical core shines through. Stevie Nicks' songs were featured heavily in the Practical Magic soundtrack. After all, nothing says witchcraft like a shawl and a tambourine. Her raspy, wind-swept vocals float through the film like a spell in motion, especially in tracks like 'Crystal' and 'If You Ever Did Believe', which feel tailor-made for moonlit rituals and heartbroken incantations. Nicks, the original boho witch goddess, didn't just set the mood—she was the mood.

Pamela Anderson Steps Out in Showgirl-Worthy Style at the Met Gala 2025
Pamela Anderson has had quite a year. First, the 57-year-old star's career-defining turn as veteran Las Vegas dancer Shelly in Gia Coppola's The Last Showgirl got rave reviews and earned her a Golden Globe nomination; now, with the chaos of awards season behind her, Anderson is ready to celebrate the first Monday in May with her oldest son Brandon Thomas Lee by her side. Anderson hit the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala with Lee, a producer and actor known for his roles in TV shows and movies including Cosmic Sin and Sierra Burgess is a Loser. (Anderson's younger son, Dylan Jagger Lee, is also a model and musician.) Anderson wore an ice-blue silk mesh Tory Burch gown embroidered with twisted silver sequins and a mix of scattered crystals, and in a nod to the night's Tailored for You dress code, the dress's silhouette was tailored from the inside out using traditional menswear techniques. Lee wore a custom tuxedo by Genuardi. Anderson and Lee's professional collaboration didn't begin and end with the Met Gala, of course; Lee was credited as an executive producer on The Last Showgirl , telling Variety in December 2024 of his involvement with the film: 'My personal mission was to give my mom the opportunities she gave me as a child. She would do anything for me. She showed up and was a very good mother.' Hopefully, we'll have many more projects (not to mention red-carpet looks) coming our way from Pamela Anderson & Sons in the future. Article originally published on Vogue US
