Photos of Cuban women embracing nail art as escape from economic crisis

HAVANA, Cuba (AP) — Despite Cuba's economic crisis, many women are embracing elaborate nail art as a bold fashion statement. Manicurists like Marisel Darias Valdés treat it as an art form, creating intricate designs that can take hours and cost up to $40 — more than triple the average monthly salary.

Heidi Klum Has a Nip-Slip in NSFW, Mermaid-Inspired Bikini Shoot and Her Response Is Priceless!

The supermodel shared a photo of herself wearing nothing but a bikini bottom in the sea at St. BartsNEED TO KNOW Heidi Klum posed for a mermaid-inspired photo shoot in St. Barts, and posted a photo of the final shot on her Instagram, on Aug. 10 The supermodel posed in nothing but bikini bottoms and covered her top half with seashells In the process, Klum had a wardrobe malfunction, which she joked about in her captionHeidi Klum knows how to make a splash! The supermodel, 52, had a wardrobe malfunction while going full-mermaid in her latest summer photo shoot posted to her Instagram on Sunday, Aug. 10. Klum, who posed in knee-high water and leaned against a rock while vacationing in St. Barts, was pictured wearing nothing but a bikini bottom in the shot. As for her top, well, she improvised. The Project Runway host covered her upper half with two tiny seashells that she held over her breasts. While the shell in her left hand provided complete coverage, the shell in her left slipped, causing a wardrobe malfunction on the beach. Klum held up the left shell just below her breast, resulting in a cheeky nip-slip. She shielded it with a yellow star emoji, and comedically poked fun at her mermaid-aligned wardrobe malfunction in her caption. "Woopsy😅," she playfully captioned the post, and added the credits of those who were involved in the shoot. " 🏝️🥥🐠💦☀️," she added, setting the clip to the song "Ooo La La La" by Sunmoon. The shells Klum used to shield her breasts in the photo shoot, shot by photographer Antoine Verglas, appeared to be attached to a necklace designed by a St. Barts-based brand, Bijoux de la Mer. The jewelry company is known for its handcrafted pieces inspired by nature, specifically stones, pebbles and shells, like the one Klum wore for the shoot. The TV mogul didn't identify the brand of her bikini bottoms, but they kept with the nature-inspired theme. They were primarily brown, with animal print on the sides and colorful leaves on the front in shades of pink, green and yellow. Klum's immersed pose in St. Barts was just the latest water-centric photo shoot she's had in recent weeks, having recently graced the cover of PEOPLE's July issue where she dazzled beside a swimming pool in Beverly Hills. The cover star, who wore several hot summer looks looks in photos taken by Max Montgomery, opened up to PEOPLE about her marriage, motherhood and making every season of life sexy in a revealing interview. "I've been photographing nude or in lingerie since 1992, way before Instagram,' she told PEOPLE. "So for me, it's nothing new. For the past 15 years, other people are now doing what I've been doing for 30 years. Instead of being in my little bottoms in a magazine, I'm on Instagram. It's the same thing." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. And yet, Klum has no intention of stopping. "For me to be older, it doesn't matter. I don't have this age-shaming or body-shaming thing," she said. "I feel like everyone should do what they want to do. I like to run around sexy — even now at 52." Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

Burberry Returns to the City on a Red London Double-decker Bus

LONDON — Burberry has had its fun in the English countryside; now it's coming back to the city. In a new series titled 'Back to the City,' the photographer and filmmaker Angelo Pennetta captures the city's landmarks from a red double-decker bus. More from WWD Fashion Gaming App Drest Teams With Jimmy Choo on a Paris-themed Styling Challenge Kristen Bell Talks Starring in Knix 'You're Good' Campaign and Breaking the Period Taboo 'With Honesty and Relatability' Space NK Opens Its Doors in Oxford Circus 'Think of it as a guided tour of this incredible city. A celebration of its famous skyline, the beautiful buildings and the Londoners who choose to call it home,' said Daniel Lee, chief creative officer at Burberry. The campaign features a handful of colorful characters, including musician Jimothy Lacoste, who produced an exclusive soundtrack for the film; TikTok's Bus Aunty, otherwise known as Bemi Orojuogun, who goes around posing with the city's famous red buses, and models Nora Attal, Rubuen Bilan-Carroll and Libby Bennett. 'It's the personality of its people that makes London feel so unique. Something you'll find woven into the very fabric of Burberry,' said Lee. The campaign's tongue-in-cheek humor is light and fun — elements that Burberry chief executive officer Joshua Schulman along with Lee have been incorporating into the British brand. The red double-decker bus follows the city's bus tour routes that spotlight London's cultural landmarks, from the National Gallery and the London Eye to Trafalgar Square. The campaign is a stylish tour with the cast wearing pieces from Burberry's fall 2025 collection, as well as new items such as the Fitzrovia, a new trenchcoat style with a double-breasted button closure; throat latch; epaulettes; a B buckle belt, and side button welt pockets.

Selena Gomez Channels Hollywood in Scarlet Gown During Wedding Date With Benny Blanco

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco made a stylish appearance at a wedding last night—and no, it wasn't their own just yet. Instead, the couple stepped out in style for the nuptials of their friends Lil Dicky and Kristin Batalucco, with the two coordinating their looks and leaning into full retro Hollywood glam. The actor shared a carousel of photos on Instagram, writing 'About last nights wedding 💒.' For their outing, the Only Murders In The Building star chose a bold red sleeveless gown with a sleek turtleneck halter. She layered it with a plush black coat and added statement geometric diamond earrings. She doubled down on the fiery hue with a classic red lip. Gomez also pulled back her hair into a glossy updo that featured a swooping wave on one side. Blanco complemented his fiancée perfectly in a cobalt blue suit paired with a black shirt and layered gold pendant necklaces. Though Gomez and Blanco were guests this time, their own wedding is on the horizon. Blanco proposed last December with a cheeky Taco Bell-themed soundstage picnic. Speaking to InStyle in June, he said, 'I love kids; I love being an uncle. I want to be a dad, though, God willing. I'm just dreaming and praying every day.' Blanco added, 'I met Selena when she was 16. We didn't work together until many years later. They say you've probably already met the person that you're gonna spend the rest of your life with… I never believed that shit until it happened to me. And now I get to kiss her. It's like my own little fairytale I concocted.'
