Bella Hadid Convinced Me to Buy 501 Levi's Shorts on Amazon
And while her wardrobe might occasionally lean unrelatable—she is still a super rich supermodel, after all—her latest look is not only totally accessible, but has convinced me to finally buy a pair of 501 Levi's cutoffs for myself. Bella was photographed making a quick pit stop to pump gas (see, relatable queen, told you!) in Aspen on Sunday, wearing a medium wash of the style with Classic Micro Uggs, a casual tee, and red varsity jacket.
Though, TBH, I don't know her exact shade, I found a pretty (if not exact) match for her shorts on Amazon—and they're only $34. The universally flattering summer staple has that lived-in vintage feel but with a little update from the OGs. The style has a waist-defining high rise fit and 100% cotton fabric that won't stretch out two sizes too big after just one wear. But, even though they hold their shape well, they still have just the right amount of give so you're not uncomfy.
Thousands of shoppers raved about the denim shorts. "This is my first pair of Levi's or shorts without stretch so I went through hundreds of reviews to settle on a size and these are perfect," one customer said, before adding that "they make [their] legs look longer" and are "surprisingly comfortable too."
Another said that the "fit is amazing" and they're "snug in all the right places without being too tight." Others added that they're "always true to size" and "super flattering on any body type."
If you want to complete Bella's entire look, you can snag her Uggs to pair with the denim and toss on a simple red bomber (maybe this one or this one?). I'm certainly going to just in hopes I manifest a cowboy BF of my own.

Bella Hadid Can't Stop Wearing Vivaia's Sneakerinas – Here's How To Style The Divisive Shoe
The more Bella Hadid steps out in sneakerinas, the less and less divisive the trend starts to look. It's a story as old as time: supermodels managing to make just about anything look appealing. With the ballet flat renaissance well and truly underway, 2025 was the year a less 'palatable' hybrid trainer version came into the mainstream. But, lest we forget, ugly shoes are fashion catnip. Soon this lovechild was influencing the shape of new sneaker drops and street style spotlights. Goodbye chunky soles and Triple S vibes, hello to the slimline silhouette we loved back in the Seventies, with sporty side stripes, suede uppers and featherweight serrated soles. There's a reason Puma Speedcats, adidas Sambas, Onitsuka Tigers and Miu Miu Plumes are having such a moment. Now, Vivaia has hopped on this bandwagon with a new take on its cult Cristina shoes. If the original design was delicate and balletic, crafted in lustrous satin and dyed in pastel hues, the new Yancy style is sportier than ever. Bella Hadid was spotted out in West Hollywood just this week modelling the creamy 'Natural' shade with tonal Jean Paul Gaultier jeans and a matching denim jacket. Made from padded Re-Nylon (that's recycled Nylon, for the non Prada-mad out there), the Vivaia Yancy has swooping overstitching and suede panelling, as well as a retro rounded toe. Unlike the candy-coloured Cristinas, this shoe comes in basic black, white, cream and a bold red. Of course this isn't the first time Bella has been spotted wearing Vivaia. In fact, the shoe brand has the model to thank for its sudden success. While, yes, the direct-to-consumer label has garnered a roster of celebrity fans – Selena Gomez, Julia Roberts, Alexa Chung and Katie Holmes, to name but a few – since its launch five years ago, in 2025 Vivaia entered the big leagues. When the Cristina sneakerina launched in February, it took less than a month for it to sell out – all thanks to Bella, who was seen wearing a a black pair with a Saint Laurent bag and wool overcoat in early March 2025. Two short weeks later and the Orabella founder was out in sneakerinas yet again: this time in New York, in Vivaia's ivory Cristina with capri leggings and a black Saint Laurent bomber. Cue another sell-out situation. Naturally, in April of this year, it was impossible to get your hands on a pair. But, luckily, Vivaia has kept the drops coming, with fresh new colourways landing all the time – namely butter yellow for summer and an on-trend burgundy to see you through the autumn season. We're big fans of the square-toed full vamp Cristina that Bella Hadid and Amelia Gray Hamlin own, but these shoes also come in a more balletic version, the Yanka, for the truly trainer-averse. Charli XCX has these lower-cut, rounded-toed sneakerinas in pink – she was seen wearing them at Glastonbury and out with friends in NYC. As a self-confessed trainer hater, my life changed the day Vivaia's Cristina sneakerinas landed on my desk. I find – believe it or not – classic trainers to be uncomfortable and I hate the silhouette they create. I was partial to a slim Nike Cortez once, but would rather opt for a heeled boot than ever wear a dress with trainers. Then, ballet flats returned and my feet were freed from their clip-clopping prison. However, there are some outfits that the classic ballet flat can easily take into 'twee' territory, and this is where the sneakerina really comes into its own. That injection of easy athleisure was just what my stripy Ganni midi needed to feel less mumsy (I am a mum, the fear is real), and suddenly my all-black outfits had a cherry on top in the form of low-key flats, not heels. You get the gist: sneakerinas are wearable. No one should be intimidated by this shoe. It goes just as well with an unabashedly girlish midi or mini (think Simone Rocha or Cecilie Bahnsen) as it does with streetwear or sleek Skims loungewear. And, as Bella has proven, it also goes particularly well with this season's favourite capri pant and a relaxed leather bomber (or any bomber jacket for that matter).

Indiana State Fair announces 2025 Taste of the Fair winners
The Indiana State Fair has announced the winners of its annual Taste of the Fair competition, the rare contest at the Fair where the entrants are eaten before receiving a blue ribbon. After 10 days of voting by fairgoers, Sheridan-based Wilson Concessions claimed first place Aug. 13 with its Cinnamon Toast cookie butter pretzel bites. The dish, which features doughy hunks of pretzel doused with cinnamon, sugar, cookie butter spread and Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, also tied for the highest-rated concession in IndyStar's annual fair food ranking. In addition to the obvious glory, Wilson Concessions will receive $2,500 for its first-place finish. Coming in behind Wilson was Florida-based Swains Concessions, who narrowly missed out on its third overall victory in four summers with its latest frightening twist on pizza, this year topped with pickles, bacon and ranch dressing. The 2025 runner-up receives $1,000. Another familiar name rounded out the podium as 2024 Taste of the Fair champ Nitro Hog BBQ took third with its BBQ Machos, tortilla chips topped with macaroni and cheese, pulled pork, cheese sauce and barbecue sauce. Nitro Hog owners Jessica and Jeff Orme are no strangers to top-three finishes and finally broke through last year with their prize-winning fried sugar biscuit with pulled pork and apple butter barbecue sauce. The Ormes will take home $500. The three finalists were the highest vote-getters among 39 competing vendors, whose creations included deep-fried pickle-topped Oreos, burgers sandwiched between grilled Little Debbie Honey Buns, cotton candy-flavored beer and five different funnel cakes. The State Fair runs through Aug. 17. That means you still have nearly four full days to try this year's most acclaimed fair foods, or perhaps whichever ones strike you as the best balance of delicious and unsettling.

Pharrell Launches New Creative Platform, VIRGINIA
Between leading bespokeJOOPITERauctions, nurturing a lucrativeadidascollaboration, producing chart-topping songs, and heading up the luxury behemoth that isLouis VuittonMen's (amongmanymore duties), Pharrell somehow has the time for more. Today, Skateboard P has officially announced the launch of his new creative alias, community platform, and brand, VIRGINIA, a 'destination where music, fashion, design, and community converge.' The all-new banner will serve as Pharrell's base for future creative projects, which will include live events, limited-edition merch drops, new music, and early access to collaborations. VIRGINIA is both a 'pseudonym and a playground for experimentation, storytelling, and direct connection,' according to an official release. 'Virginia is where I'm from, but it's also who I am creatively. It's my space to dream, and a way to connect with people who are dreaming too,' said Pharrell. To kick things off, Pharrell has debuted VIRGINIA's first full range of limited-edition merchandise, which includes logo-laden apparel, swimwear, beach gear, surfboards, accessories, and home items. Most of the line will be available the home of VIRGINIA, which launches with a takeover from Virginia-based artist Sam Clayman and houses a full-blown virtual karaoke game. Additionally, Pharrell has officially claimedBLACK YACHT ROCK VOL 1 CITY OF LIMITLESS ACCESS, the album he anonymously released in 2024, as the first musical project to reside under the VIRGINIA banner. The record introduced the artist's 'Black yacht rock,' or a sound reimagined 'through the lens of Black musicality and personal memory,' hence the website's domain. Finally, a brand-new VIRGINIA Adistar Jellyfish, Pharrell's latest design for adidas, will be available to shop exclusively on VIRGINIA's platform, ahead of its global launch at the end of this month.
