Rosé Gives 3 Cheers for Bra-Forward Fashion
After a couple of days in New York City, Rosé has her summer uniform down to a science—and it all revolves around a black bra. Last night, the Blackpink singer galavanted through the streets of Chelsea dressed in a gathered black cotton square-neck bra top with a delicate ruffle detail on the strap. She paired the bralette with a matching high-waisted pair of button-up boxers. She infused the sweet summery look with a masculine edge, thanks to a pair of baggy, low-slung jeans in a rugged stone wash, styled with a pair of chunky sneakers. TheStewartofNY TheStewartofNY The previous day, Rosé opted for two looks that followed the same formula. Spotted strolling through SoHo during the day, she layered a dainty white lace top with an asymmetrical hem over a black triangle bra, which she paired with slouchy mid-rise blue jeans, a pair of surfer-dude-friendly flip-flops, thick cat-eye sunglasses, and a white quilted Chanel crossbody. She updated the look for night, swapping her white top for a black lacy camisole (which showed off the same black bralette), cinched with a slim oxblood belt. If you're wondering how to incorporate your underwear into your summer style, look no further than Rosé, who just demonstrated three very viable options.

Legendary '70s Rockers Announce New Album
Legendary '70s Rockers Announce New Album originally appeared on Parade. Original Roxy Music band members Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone) and Paul Thompson (drummer) have announced a new album due out September 19. "AM PM SOHO LIVE is due out on September 19th via Expression Records & BFD/The Orchard and features material from Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay's recent album, AM PM, as well as notable tracks from Phil Manzanera's solo catalogue and several Roxy Music classics," reads the press release. It continues, "Much of the material on AM PM SOHO LIVE is sourced from the 2023 Phil Manzanera/Andy Mackay collaborative effort, the instrumental AM PM. Recorded during the lockdowns, the album was so well-received that it inspired Manzanera and Mackay to play the tracks live. Recorded at those three sold-out gigs at an intimate screening theatre in London's Soho in March 2024, AM PM SOHO LIVE is mixed in Dolby Atmos and also features British/Portuguese singer/songwriter Sonia Bernardo and another ex-Roxy Music alum, Anna Phoebe, on violin."'Listening back to the tracks from this album, especially in Dolby Atmos, and trying to make sense of what is AM PM SOHO LIVE has made me realize that the original ad that I answered to join Roxy, which said 'Guitarist wanted for Avant Rock group' was a thought and a mission statement staring me in the face and has informed quite naturally and organically the whole of the AM PM project," said Manzanera in a statement. Roxy Music was formed in 1971 with Thompson, Mackay, Manzanera plus Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno. They quickly became known as "elegant, art school rockers." They took a hiatus in the 1980s and 1990s, then returned in 2001 with a new tour. In 2019, Roxy Music was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and then in 2022, the band celebrated its 50th anniversary with a worldwide tour that culminated in a sold-out show in London. A live performance video of the first track off the album, "Out of the Blue," is available now.

Sofia Richie Grainge Is Loyal to This Drugstore Mascara
Sofia Richie Grainge likes to experiment when it comes to beauty. (Ask her how many products TikTok—or Billie Eilish—has made her try.) But when the beauty muse who brought back the bridal bun finds something that works, she's loyal. And that's why there's one drugstore gem she's so prone to gush over, she has to give a disclaimer: 'This is not an ad,' Richie tells Vogue while spilling her latest Beauty Secrets. Instead, the 26-year-old's ode to Maybelline Lash Sensational Full Fan Effect is something that comes from the heart, after lots of trial and error. 'I've tried every mascara,' she says. 'I don't know what is wrong with me, but this is the only mascara that works for me. Otherwise, I look insane, and my mascara's running down my face constantly. This stays on all day, all night, doesn't run.' And there's more: As the new mom swipes on her beloved mascara, she praises the way it fans out the lashes, lifts them, and gives them a dark but still natural-looking tint. Richie is also loyal to Anastasia Clear Brow Gel, which she's used for a decade, and she's still tight with the concealer that carried her through pregnancy-related hormonal acne. 'This is my girl,' she says, holding up a tube of Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear All Over Concealer. 'It's silky and gives me good coverage, but it's not replacing my skin. It's just enhancing it.'
