When it comes to style icons, history has its Lauren Huttons, its Audrey Hepburns, Jane Birkins, and Jackie Os. But the kinds of style we look to for inspiration has changed a lot over the years—especially the diversity of style, and the individuality of it. So before March wraps up, in honor of Women’s History Month and hot on the heels of all the chic on display at the Academy Awards, let’s shine the spotlight on our current style icons.Cate Blanchett: No wonder celebs from Joan Rivers to Adele have called Cate their personal fashion icon; she’s as serious about fashion as she is about acting. And this year’s Oscars presented a perfect example: Cate exuded confidence and classic beauty in a Louis Vuitton gown with a blue draping top and a flowing black skirt—winning points for both grace and strong lines. If she’s not in a Cleopatra-inspired Jean Paul Gaultier gown or a yellow, oxblood, and lilac Valentino frock, she’s in golden, flapper-esque Balenciaga.Rihanna: A perfect exampl...Up for a promotion – but wanting to stay put
Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:17:35 GMT
Q. I am in line to become a manager. Only thing is, I don’t want to get promoted. It may sound crazy, but I’m not interested in more headaches, honestly I prefer to just coast. Can I do that — can I tell my boss no?A. Absolutely! Congrats on the opportunity, but as you just pointed out — you are in the driver’s seat for your career. That means being proactive and knowing what’s best for you. If that promotion is not what you want, then follow that north star. Also know that you’re not alone. Many people choose to not climb from rung to rung as work-life balance and their mental health are prioritized, knowing in many cases (not all, but many) with more responsibilities and more on your plate means something’s gotta give somewhere else. (That said, there are many benefits I’m sure you know to a promotion including, of course, higher pay.)You may want to tell your boss you prefer to not accept the promotion. But, you may ask if tha...Dear Abby: SIL’s influence creates hurdle for couple

Dear Abby: My husband and I have been married for six years. The problem is his sister and the emotional hold she seems to have on him. There have been several instances in which she has been disrespectful and invasive where OUR business is concerned.When I object to my husband about it, his response is either that he’s sorry or he acts like he doesn’t understand why I find her behavior intrusive. When he talks to her on the phone, it’s as if he feels compelled to tell her OUR business, i.e. financial status, which I have told him repeatedly is none of her business, to which he agreed. Yet he recently did it again.He acts like he’s afraid of her — like she has some type of emotional hold on him. I’m about to blow a gasket. I want to revisit the subject in a way that he will FINALLY understand my point of view and not be so eager to share everything that goes on in our home. Any thoughts? — Private Person in IllinoisDear Private: You and your...Celtics blow 19-point lead, alarming issues persist in brutal loss to Jazz
