These Boho Boots Will Be Fall's Status Shoe
Sienna Miller in 2003.Kate Moss in 2003.Over on the fall/winter 2025 runways, Ralph Lauren and Zimmermann took a more subtle approach via elegant knee-high leather boots with buccaneer buckle detailing and a slight scrunch. Others went full-on pirate, with boots big enough to fill with loot – at Balmain the crumpled-up boots were so cavernous you could fit another leg in there, and some even had hidden coin purses concealed in the folds, where you can quite literally hide your treasure.
Louis Vuitton leaned into boho Noughties nostalgia with its sheepskin-lined studded boots that rippled over the ankle (very Sienna Miller circa 2003). Other styles, meanwhile, had a sleeker leg with a fold over the top, in true Three Musketeers fashion.

One of the precursors for this revival has been the renewed interest in Vivienne Westwood's famous Pirate boots, which were designed in the '80s, but later defined Noughties style. Earlier this summer, Haim recreated an image of Kate Moss leaning against a car in the buckled, scrunched-up boots. They featured in Westwood's first runway show, Pirate, in the autumn/winter 1981 season, where they were styled with smock shirts and admiral boots. 'Malcolm and I didn't want to be seen as token rebels,' the designer later said of that collection. 'We wanted to get off this island and plunder the world, like pirates.'

Another brand that will always be aligned with this style of boot is boho pioneer Isabel Marant. Earlier this month Vogue declared that 'Isabel Marant feels so right for now,' noting that even the wedge sneaker has seen a 1,580% spike in searches on eBay year on year. Another longtime Marant signature is suede boho boots that look like they have been squished, with the fabric scrunching and pooling around the ankle.

White leather slouchy boots couldn't be more '80s, but for this autumn, boots are realized in richer shades such as chestnut, black, grey and burgundy. These boots also lend themselves to the Noughties boot tuck, which started bubbling up on the street-style scene this February. 'I'm living by my own mantra that skinny jeans walked so jeans in boots could run,' Vogue's Julia Hobbs explained in February. 'What started as a tongue-in-cheek take on 2010s 'date-night dressing' has become my everyday uniform.' And any of these boots, wherever they fall on the pirate scale, can house a pair of drainpipes snuggly in the leg. Ahoy autumn!

Who Is Leonardo Dicaprio's Girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti?
We're gonna keep this short and sweet since we know you're here for all the 🍵 on Leonardo DiCaprio's latest girlfriend of *checks calendar* two years (!!!!), supermodel Vittoria Ceretti. While the two have kept things relatively low-key (save for their buzzy mega yacht getaway with Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez...), we're here with absolutely everything you need to know about their relationship status, how they met, and that Leo pic spotted on Vittoria's phone during last year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. But first! Let's start with a bit of background. Vittoria was born on June 7, 1998, in a small town outside of Milan called Brescia. At 14, she made her modeling debut at Elite Model Look, aka one of the most distinguished international competitions in the world. And ever since then, she's been seriously booked and busy. Among one of the many highlights of her career, however, was her first beauty contract with Chanel. 'My first contract with Chanel, my beauty contract, that's when I was like, 'What happened, how did I get here?'' she gushed during a candid interview with Vogue. Since then, the supermodel has graced the runways and campaigns of countless top designers, including *takes deep breath* Alexander McQueen, Ralph Lauren, Chanel, Givenchy, Fendi, Prada, Miu Miu, Versace, Valentino Proenza Schouler, Bulgari, Tiffany & Co., and Gucci. Whoah. Yep, as a hugely successful figure in her field, Vittoria cultivated relationships with a buncha famous designers, including Karl Lagerfeld, who passed away in February 2019. Fast-forward to the 2023 Met Gala, which paid tribute to the late celeb via its 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty' theme, and the model made sure to be in attendance. Prior to walking the legendary red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Vittoria took to social media and shared a touching tribute to him in the form of a letter on Instagram. The year? 2023. The event? Leo's Killers of the Flower Moon premiere at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. Despite meeting at the ultra-exclusive event, however, it wasn't until August of that year that the two were romantically linked thanks to some 👀 pics of the couple on an ice cream date in Los Angeles that dropped. According to an eyewitness who spoke to Page Six, there was most certainly a 'vibe' between the duo just by the 'way they were talking to each other, you could feel the energy.' Well! Then!!!! Oh, and just a few days after, in early September, Leo and Vittoria upped the ante by being spotted dancing in Ibiza, Spain, where the actor reportedly called the supermodel his 'girlfriend.' 'Vittoria is a beautiful girl, but Leonardo is of course surrounded by many beautiful girls most of the time,' an insider told the Daily Mail at the time. 'But he adores her and she him, they have been spending a lot of time together this summer, traveling around on romantic trips.' P.S. When it came to Leo's, erm, track record, the source dished, 'It has obviously led to much chatter within his circle that Leo is ready to hang up his lothario ways. There have been many women pictured with him, partying with him, but what he has with Vittoria is much more serious.' You read that right! In photos shared by Page Six in September 2023, Leo and Vittoria were seen in Milan leaving the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana Museum the day prior alongside the actor's mom, Irmelin Indenbirken. And clearly, the family reunions haven't stopped, because in October 2024, the couple and Leo's parents (aka mom Irmelin and stepfather David Ward) were snapped in Italy enjoying dinner, according to TMZ. Luckily, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show blessed us with many things—including the tidbit that the supermodel has a small photo of a young Leo from his Growing Pains days on her phone case. Ahem: So 😭 happy 😭 for 😭 her 😭😭😭. But people def thought they were after Vittoria was spotted wearing a silver ring on *that* finger back in March 2024. Despite the 👀 placement, however, multiple sources told TMZ that Leo hadn't proposed. Plus, Vittoria has reportedly had the ring since at least September 2022—aka before the two even began dating—so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. That said... Back in January 2020, the celeb said 'I do' to Italian DJ Matteo Milleri, though it's believed the two are currently separated. Per Grazia magazine, the two tied the knot in a stunning ceremony in Ibiza, where Vittoria donned a flowy, A-line gown by Jacquemus. '01.06.2020 🤍 from this day forward,' Vittoria penned in the caption of a sweet Instagram carousel of wedding photos. Side note: The supermodel stopped sharing images of Matteo on social media around 2022, which is well before she and Leo met, so do with that what you will! Aaaaaanyway! That's pretty much all we know about Vittoria and her 'ship with Leo, but fear not! This story will be updated with any and all news about the couple.

Movie Review: Kristin Scott Thomas directs Scarlett Johansson in comedic drama 'My Mother's Wedding'
Before Kristin Scott Thomas turned 12, she lost her father and stepfather. Both were Royal Navy pilots who died in crashes. The first happened when she was 5. The second at age 11. Thomas uses these facts, a kind of origin story, as the basis for her directorial debut, 'My Mother's Wedding,' a comedic drama about family, trauma and getting on with it that opens in theaters Friday. Knowing that the story comes from a real place is important for the experience. It gives 'My Mother's Wedding,' a perfectly average film that doesn't quite land the way it should, an emotional depth that it's otherwise lacking. This is a strange shortcoming considering the caliber of the cast, including Thomas as the bride to be, and Sienna Miller, Emily Beecham and Scarlett Johansson as her daughters. But it's a cruel reminder that a good hook, talented actors, one killer monologue and a picturesque setting (in this case, the English countryside) aren't guarantees that a movie will work. In the film, the deaths may be in the distant past, but they continue to haunt Diana's (Thomas) adult daughters as she prepares to marry another. Diana's new man is not a dashing pilot, forever preserved in handsome youth. Geoffrey (James Fleet) is very gray. He likes to talk about birds, ospreys in particular, has never had children and comes with a very silly last name (Loveglove) that she plans to take. Her girls are not exactly impressed, though they've all got their own stuff to deal with. It should be said that Johansson is indeed playing a British woman in this film, and while I don't feel qualified to comment on the nuances of her accent, all I can say is that there is a consistently strange disconnect to hear it coming out of her mouth. Johansson is a great actor who I've believed in many wilder roles, from Marvel movies right on down to her Ellen Greene riff during 'Saturday Night Live's' 50th anniversary show. But, somehow, she's hard to buy as Katherine Frost: A British, lesbian Royal Navy officer in a longtime relationship with a woman named Jack (played by fellow beauty Freida Pinto). Miller's character is Victoria, a Hollywood actor known for franchise dreck (no one can remember whether the latest 'Dame Of Darkness' is the fourth or fifth in the series) and short-lived relationships. And Beecham is the youngest Georgina, a nurse who suspects that her husband is having an affair. To find out, the girls hire a private detective to surveil her house and show them the footage after the wedding. It's a very busy, fraught weekend for everyone. There's lots of fretting over why Katherine won't marry Jack, and why Victoria is dancing around a relationship with a wealthy, older French man when her childhood crush still pines for her. There's lingering anxiety about their mom marrying this man who seems so unlike the two heroes that came before and much discussion about the importance of last names, marriage and making sure kids feel like they belong to someone. Some things get resolved, but it's hard to shake the feeling that everyone might need a new therapist by the end. 'My Mother's Wedding' also has a silly lightness to it that's aiming for something along the lines of a Richard Curtis romantic comedy. But coherency of the vision is limited, as is the audience's investment, though there are some lovely and inspired touches like using Iranian artist Reza Riahi to hand paint several animated flashback vignettes based on her memories of her fathers. Thomas co-wrote the script with her husband, journalist John Micklethwait, which includes a particularly poignant monologue for her character telling her daughters, essentially, to grow up and move on — a mature and worthy statement that might come a bit too late. 'My Mother's Wedding' feels only partially realized. But Thomas did have the good sense to end with a song that might just conjure up some feelings for any 'Heartburn' fans out there: Carly Simon's 'Coming Around Again,' this time a duet with Alanis Morissette. 'My Mother's Wedding,' a Vertical release in theaters Friday, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association for 'brief nudity, some sexual material and language.' Running time: 95 minutes. Two stars out of four.

Justin Bieber Vows to Change as Wife Hailey Gives Him One ‘Final Shot': Source (Exclusive)
Justin Bieber is trying to make up for his recent behavior — and his wife, Hailey Bieber, is giving him a chance to change, according to a source. 'Justin has completely thrown himself at Hailey's feet, begging for another chance and promising he'll do whatever it takes to fix things,' a source tells Star. 'He's telling her he's ready to grow up and make her and their family the priority.' 'Hailey's accepted his promises, but she's also made it very clear this is his final shot. She loves him, but she can't keep living on this rollercoaster with him,' the insider shared. 'She's laid out a list of things she wants to see changed. No more public meltdowns, no more immature behavior, and he's got to cut way down on his weed habit.' The source said the 'Baby' singer is 'really trying' and taking the 28-year-old Rhode founder's requests 'very seriously' explaining, 'He even did a total detox to prove he's serious. Things have been very good the last couple of weeks.' However, the source noted that this has been a recurring pattern in their relationship. 'Justin pushes Hailey to her breaking point, and things explode, and all sorts of threats and promises are made, and then they make up, and things are good for a while before the cycle starts again,' the source shared. The pop star — who shares a 10-month-old son, Jack Blues, with the model — has made headlines in recent months as fans express concern about his well-being. In June, Justin took to Instagram to share concerning posts, including one in which he admitted he was 'broken' and copped to having 'anger issues.' Justin followed up that post by sharing a video on his Instagram Story that addressed infidelity. In May, the two-time Grammy Award winner shared a photo of his wife's Vogue cover on his Instagram and detailed a 'huge fight' between them in which he told her 'she would never be on the cover of Vogue.' He later changed the caption to read '🤷🫵🏻🫶🏼🥹' — leading fans to speculate Hailey was unhappy with his original statement. In her Vogue interview, Hailey discussed the public's ongoing scrutiny of her marriage. 'Well, I thought seven years in it would've already [died down], and it hasn't,' she told the publication. 'You would think after having a child, people would maybe move on, chill out a little bit, but no.' Justin continues to keep the public on their toes: Despite his cryptic social media behavior, he shared a loving post hugging Hailey on July 6, writing, 'My forever n always 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕,' in the caption. Days later, Justin released his new album Swag, in which he seemingly referenced his marriage. On the track 'Walking Away' he sings, 'Girl, we better stop before we say some s**t. We've been testing our patience. I think we better off if we just take a breath and remember what grace is.' Solve the daily Crossword
