Black bags are out: Reese Witherspoon proves this color is so much more chic
Bored of your old black purse? We're right there with you. While black is obviously the classic hue and hard to avoid when it comes to accessories, this season, why not take a cue from Reese Witherspoon and swap your standard black purse for a burgundy style?
The rich, wine-colored shade is surprisingly versatile and feels so much fresher than old standbys like black and brown.
The 48-year-old Oscar winner was spotted carrying Cuyana's Ola Bag in New York in late January and we haven't been able to stop thinking about the style since. The petite burgundy number is made with premium Italian leather and features an architectural gold top handle, as well as a crossbody strap. Witherspoon paired it with a red and black look that was giving us all the Valentine's Day vibes.
Witherspoon's Cuyana bag is at the top of our wishlist, but it will likely have to remain there for a bit, seeing as it retails for a steep $458. While this purse is a great investment piece, you don't have to splurge to add a burgundy bag to your rotation (unless you want to, to which we say, treat yourself!). Keep scrolling to shop five burgundy purses we're eyeing — all for less than $100.

5 classic summer blockbusters just landed on streaming — and they'll make you feel like a kid again
They just don't make summers like they used to. Growing up, these months meant no homework, riding bikes until the streetlights came on, and listening out for the tune of the ice cream man. Nowadays, your summers likely aren't so carefree, but you can still get a blast from the past with these quintessential nostalgic summer blockbusters that just landed on streaming. Some of the biggest summer movie hits from the '70s, '80s, and '90s can be found across the best streaming services, and some are even streaming for free (if you don't mind a few pesky ads). There's never been a better time to indulge your inner child by revisiting the same films that captivated you on those rainy days or summer nights that feel like yesterday. So grab some popcorn, curl up in the AC, and stream these five classic summer blockbusters that'll transport you back to a simpler time. A list like this isn't complete without the OG summer blockbuster, "Jaws." Steven Spielberg's nerve-shredding thriller struck a nerve in our collective consciousness, sparking a tidal wave of sequels, imitators, and an enduring fear of the ocean that still haunts beachgoers today. Adapted from Peter Benchley's best-selling novel, "Jaws" follows police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) as he hunts down the great white shark responsible for a string of deadly attacks off Amity Island's shores. Driving the suspense is John Williams' legendary, Oscar-winning score—an ominous two-note motif that has become one of the most iconic pieces of music in film history. Watch it now on Tubi Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The '80s and goofy sci-fi movies go together like Stay-Puft marshmallows and s'mores. While recent sequels like "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" and "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire" haven't exactly been blockbuster hits, there's no question that the original 1984 "Ghostbusters" remains a true classic. Whether they're battling the paranormal or just trading wisecracks, comedy icons Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis are endlessly entertaining. Their effortless chemistry is what truly makes "Ghostbusters" so rewatchable; everything else, including the looming apocalypse, is just icing on the ectoplasmic cake. Joined by Ernie Hudson, the crew plays a team of ghost hunters that take on a growing supernatural crisis in New York City, though the specters they face are more hilarious than horrifying. Watch it now on Peacock Let's be honest, "Jurassic Park" doesn't need much of an introduction. When it roared into theaters in 1993, it became the highest-grossing film of all time. Now with half a dozen sequels under its belt, the franchise has earned a reputation as towering and unforgettable as the T-Rex on its iconic poster. Steven Spielberg's sci-fi adventure follows eccentric billionaire John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) as he unveils a one-of-a-kind theme park that's home to living, breathing dinosaurs cloned from ancient DNA preserved in amber. A small group that includes Alan Grant (Sam Neil), Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) is given a tour before it's open to the public, but a bit of corporate sabotage turns their dream expedition into a prehistoric nightmare when the dinos get loose. Watch it now on Peacock Seeing Jim Carrey being his usual wacky and hilarious self in "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" sent me on a binge of his greatest hits, and you know "The Mask" topped that list. Carrey stars as Stanley Ipkiss, a timid bank clerk whose life takes a wild turn when he discovers an ancient mask that turns the wearer into a manic, near-invincible trickster. With the help of his newfound alter ego, he sets out to impress a nightclub singer (Cameron Diaz) only to get tangled up in a local crime syndicate. It's another one of Carrey's roles that feels tailor-made for him. His expressive face, kinetic energy, and rapid-fire delivery turn the character into a living cartoon, making "The Mask" feel like pure animated chaos in live action. "The Mask" not only solidified Carrey's place as a 1990s comedy icon but also launched Diaz's Hollywood career. To this day, it remains a fan favorite from the period for its slapstick humor and groundbreaking visual effects. Watch it now on Hulu Another titan of '90s comedy, Will Smith, stars in my favorite entry on this list, "Independence Day." When Earth lands in the crosshairs of a massive alien invasion that threatens to wipe out humanity, a ragtag group of heroes — including fearless fighter pilot Captain Steven Hiller (Smith), brilliant computer whiz David Levinson (Jeff Goldblum), and the determined U.S. President Thomas Whitmore (Bill Pullman)—come together to launch a desperate counterstrike. It all builds to a high-stakes showdown on July 4th, turning America's Independence Day into a global fight for survival. Packed with explosive action, groundbreaking special effects, and one of the most iconic presidential speeches in movie history, "Independence Day" remains a crowd-pleasing spectacle that helped define '90s blockbuster cinema.

‘Big Little Lies' Creator David E. Kelley Is 'Hopeful' Season 3 Will 'Happen': 'Everyone Is Very Committed to It'
David E. Kelley is holding onto hope that Big Little Lies will return for a third season. Season two of the HBO series arrived in 2019, two years after season one debuted. It's been half a decade since the show debuted new episodes, though the series creator told People that he's 'hopeful' season three will 'happen.' More from The Hollywood Reporter Hollywood Flashback: When Paul Giamatti Was Elected to Win an Emmy George Clooney-Produced Ohio State Abuse Doc Gets Date, Trailer From HBO 'Industry' Creators on How Their Storytelling and Characters Have Evolved (in Bleepable Ways) and HBO's "Fantastic Notes" 'We're hoping it happens,' he said Monday at the Gotham TV Awards. 'We had a great time doing the first two seasons and we all want to do it again … I'm hopeful it'll happen.' Big Little Lies featured an A-list slate of stars, including Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Lauren Dern, Meryl Streep, Zoë Kravitz and Shailene Woodley. If a third season does come to fruition, Kelley noted that no one is 'under contract' at the moment, but they'd 'need to corral a lot of high-caliber talent and their publicists, but everyone is very committed to it.' Kelley praised Liane Moriarty, the author of the novel the TV series is based on, for the continued interest in the show. He also teased that Moriarty has 'written another book' that a potential next season 'will be based on.' 'I think it's a credit to Liane Moriarty, too, who wrote the original book,' he said. 'And she's written another book that season three will be based on. It's a pretty good collection of talent.' In January 2024, sources told The Hollywood Reporter stars and exec producers Witherspoon and Kidman were developing an idea for season three that they were looking forward to pitching to the network. Five months later, the actresses opened up about their hopes for a new season in an interview with Vanity Fair, somewhat indicating that a new installment was happening. 'I've got Laura [Dern] calling me and Zoë [Kravitz] and Shailene [Woodley]. They're all like, 'Nic said that we're making Big Little Lies season three?'' Witherspoon said, to which Kidman rebutted, 'But we are now! We're moving fast and furious, and Liane [Moriarty] is delivering the book.'
