10 Celebs Proving ’90s Makeup Is Making a Comeback

Our fave celebs are bringing the ’90s back this award season with a classic brown makeup palette. Stars like Emily Blunt and Felicity Jones are sporting coppery shadows for a natural, dewy look, while Kerry Washington and Dascha Polanco are using brown-based hues on their lips. These shades are classic and complement the bright, bold colors we’re seeing on their gowns. We’re counting down the days until the Academy Awards and predicting even more natural beauty looks on the red carpet.

Would you rock brown shadow again? What are your favorite ways to wear it? Let us know in the comments.

We all love getting that extra 15 minutes of beauty sleep thanks to lazy-girl-approved hairstyles (topknot, we’re looking at you), and our absolute favorites of the bunch are those that make your hair look great for multiple days. What’s even better is when that multiple-day hairstyle is a contemporary spin on a classic ‘90s ‘do, and it seems like Kerry Washington feels the same. The Scandal star recently rocked a modern version of an old-school hairstyle that she hacked to make her hair look amazing on day two, aka pulled a lazy-girl card, and you’ll definitely want to copy it. We’ll set the scene:

Day One: Kerry Washington recently stepped out in NYC with a high braided ponytail that featured messy volume and a super-thick braid, both of which kept the look feeling very current. Takisha Sturdivant-Drew, Kerry’s hairstylist, explained to US Weekly that the key to this look was the volume at the front and the use of Velcro rollers (Velcro seems to be having a moment with celeb hairstylists) to pull back Kerry’s bangs and the hair at the crown of the head to give her ‘do that slight rocker edge, but also keep it fancy enough to dress up her take on jeans and a tee.

Day Two: The day after Kerry’s epic braided ponytail revival, we noticed Kerry on the red carpet at the 2015 Global Citizen Festival wearing her hair in a thick, wavy ponytail, which we’re hunching is the residual style from her day-one braid. The look was totally different — her hair was looser — but you could see some similarities, like the volume up front and the same high pony placement, we’re guessing to hide any unwanted kinks from her elastic. The bonus of this look is it’s so easy to get if you follow her hair hack: Just undo the braid, throw those rollers back in for bang volume and gather your hair in a high ponytail. You can tease the ponytail if you want added oomph.

Props to Kerry + Takisha for successfully reimagining an old-school hairstyle into a very 2015 ‘do that looks even better the next day. Bookmark this #wokeuplikethis look for your next weekend wedding away, two-day conference or anytime you feel like time just isn’t on your side. Now our minds are racing about how to make other throwback hairstyles cool again and last through the week.

Jennifer Lawrence and Dakota Johnson are two of my favorite people in Hollywood because of the fact they do literally whatever they want, and they don’t care what you think about it. I aspire to be this confident and unbothered!! They've both had pretty big years — Dakota led both Madame Web and Daddio, while Jennifer announced she's pregnant with her second child at the end of October, and when I saw they hung out together, I knew this was one celebrity friendship I'd LOVE.

Are Jennifer Lawrence & Dakota Johnson friends?

Yes, Jennifer Lawrence and Dakota Johnson are friends! The actresses were recently spotted on a stroll in Los Angeles, beverages in hand. Jennifer wore a tee and blue hoodie that showed off her growing baby bump while Dakota kept things chic with a black-on-black coat and v-neck sweater over a white tee shirt. They both looked super cozy! And, let's face it, beverages are basically an accessory at this point, and their drinks of choice prove they love little treats as much as we do!

And this isn't the first moment Jennifer Lawrence BFF moment that's made us fangirl this year! At the Oscars in March, Jennifer introduced Emma Stone, who ended up winning Best Actress for her role as Bella in Poor Things. Emma cried, Jennifer couldn't stop smiling, and it was an adorable moment for girls' girls everywhere.

Did Jennifer Lawrence date Chris Martin?

Not only are they two of Hollywood's "It" girls, but they also share an overlap in their dating history. Jennifer Lawrence (who's now married to Cooke Maroney) dated Dakota Johnson’s current beau Chris Martin between 2014 and 2015. Dakota started dating him just two years later.

Rumors started circulating in August that Dakota and Chris had called it quits, but thankfully, Dakota proved they were just rumors when her rep told Page Sixthe couple is still "happily together." The Social Network actress also told Bustle that when it comes to Chris' kids (whom he shares with ex Gwyneth Paltrow), she loves them "like my life depends on it. With all my heart." I'm simply obsessed.

Stay tuned for all the best Jennifer Lawrence & Dakota Johnson friendship moments, and read up on why Dakota Johnson's Book Club Isn't Your Average Celebrity Reading List.

Sure, it’s fun to watch all those fab frocks (and suits) make their way down the red carpet, but knowing that Claire Danes’ dress was a Prada creation or Kerry Washington snagged her mixed-media gown straight from the Marc Jacobs runway — we’re talking Spring 2016, people — might invoke some wardrobe envy. You might not have a stylist on speed dial or the paycheck to support couture duds, but that certainly can’t stop you from nabbing a bit of that chic celeb style. From statement steppers to color block getups, here’s how to nail Emmys 2015 glamour IRL.

1. Clover Canyon Autumn Lilies Neoprene Skirt ($235): We loved how Judith Light opted out of the standard dress and rocked this bold, bright high-waist maxi and silk shirt combo instead. Spice up your nine-to-five rotation with a similar style and get ready to turn some heads. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

2. Topshop Poppy Double Collar Blazer ($65): Tatiana Maslany isn’t afraid of a little post-Labor Day white. The Orphan Black actress stepped out in a polished, yet oh-so-daring cream-colored suit and sleek bun. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

3. Front Row Shop Strapless Jumpsuit ($65): It’s always refreshing to see celebs mix things up, so we were definitely feelin’ Sophie Turner’s strapless jumpsuit. Rock your own during the work week with a button-down shirt and killer heels. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

4. French Connection Lula Colour Block Dress ($168): Orange Is the New Black actress Danielle Brooks lit up the red carpet with both her confidence and flowy eye-catching frock. This color block number packs plenty of punch like Brooks’ own ensemble, but with a more contemporary, everyday edge. (Photo via Mark Davis/Getty)

5. ASOS Hot Spell Faux Fur Heeled Sandals ($61): Furry shoes and quilted fabric added a softness to Maisie Williams’ structured pink dress. Do the same to your night-out look — while adding a major zing — with these electric steppers. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

6. Diane von Furstenberg Aubrey Chain Collar Silk Sleeveless Top ($248): Claire Danes totally killed it in this shimmery purple number (we’ll take five, please). While Prada might be a little out of our price range, this chain-linked top packs the same modern appeal. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

7. Forever21 Faux Leather Platform Brogues ($30): A full-blown suit and flatform kicks? Director Jill Soloway is a woman after our own hearts. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

8. The 8th Sign Lace Sleeve Mini Dress With Contrast Bust And Skirt ($332): Girllllll. Naomi Grossman’s barely there frock definitely made a statement last night. The “naked dress” trend is definitely not for the faint of heart, but if you’re into the funky effect it creates, this toned-done version is IRL-approved. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

9. Kate Spade Stamped Dots Shirt Dress ($208): Loved Teyonah Parris’s polka-dot dress? This vibrant shirt dress interpretation takes the tried-and-true print to the next level. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

10. ASOS Full Metal Waist Belt ($54): The metallic belt continues to prove its status as a stylish wardrobe staple with yet another celeb — TV personality Nancy O’Dell — strutting one down the red carpet. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

11. Nasty Gal Fly Girl Asymmetrical Cape Dress ($30): Fall 2015 is proving to be all about the cape. Capes makes for a stand-out detail on a classic dress — while keeping your shoulders warm too. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

12. Amuse Society Midnight Silver Sequin Dress ($132): Kerry Washington — does she ever not get it right? This hot-off-the-runway stunner (it appeared just days before in Marc Jacobs’ Spring 2016 show) knocked it out of the park. Steal a little of Kerry’s style with this silver sequin number. (Photo via Jason Merritt/Getty)

13. Nic + Zoe Fringed Up Skirt ($158): Channel some of Natasha Lyonne’s Emmys style with a fringed-out midi skirt. Style it with a flowy top for the office, then dress it down with a classic tee for an elevated off-duty look. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

14. ASOS Shift Dress in Bright Textured Chevron ($63): Ellie Kemper’s psychedelic dress had us right from the get-go. It manages to make chevron feel fun and fresh, which isn’t always easy to do. (Photo via Albert E. Rodriguez/Getty)

15. Urban Outfitters Mercer Bib Necklace ($32): Believe it or not, it’s the statement collar on this Miu Miu dress that really caught our attention. We’re ready to team it up with everything from an LBD to an everyday tee. (Photo via Frazer Harrison/Getty)

16. Zara Studded Top ($50): Christina Hendricks kept her cool despite the sweltering temps in a studded Maxior design. Give off your own tough-girl vibes with a lightweight embellished top. (Photo via Mark Davis/Getty)

17. Lavish Alice Floaty Midi Dress With Wrap Lace Up ($104): Amanda Peet was looking oh-so fly in a classic black gown with a saucy midrift cutout. For day-to-day wear (because Amanda’s gorgeous style might be a bit much for running errands), this Lavish Alice interpretation is it. (Photo via Jason Merritt/Getty)

18. Paul By Paul Smith Easy Fit Jersey Dress In Multi Check ($242): Ladies and gents, meet plaid 2.0. Despite what the critics say, we’re kind of obsessed with Jaimie Alexander’s fashion-forward getup. (Photo via Mark Davis/Getty)

So long, pumpkin spice season: Starbucks’ holiday menu is on the way, and per menu leaks, it reportedly brings back a ton of seasonal favorites starting next week.

From a classic Peppermint Mocha to the beloved Caramel Brûlée Latte, the recent menu rumors say a new Refresher flavor, 6 unique cold foams, and 4 new bakery items are on the way as the holidays draw near – including many items we predicted! The speculated lineup is honestly wild. Starbucks teased that the holiday menu will hit stores on November 7.

If you just can’t wait to order off the Starbucks holiday menu, here’s every offering reportedly coming to your closest cafe!

When will the Starbucks holiday drinks for 2024 come out?

Starbucks

According to an Instagram post from Starbucks, new holiday drinks and snacks will come out on November 7, 2024.

Will there be holiday cups?

Starbucks

We do anticipate that the Starbucks holiday menu will include some new holiday cup designs! Though we don't know what they'll look like just yet, previous holiday menus over the years have featured vibrant reds, greens, and pinks, plus stars, sparkles, Christmas trees, swirls, and stripes. Typically, Starbucks' holiday cups span across hot and iced drinks. Additionally, a new lineup of reusable cups and mugs should become available!

What's missing from this year's rumored Starbucks holiday menu?

Starbucks

Per rumors around the Starbucks holiday menu, the Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread Loaf won't be returning to cafes for 2024. We're especially sad to see the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha not included, though the official menu lineup has yet to be released!

When is Starbucks Red Cup Day 2024?

Starbucks

Though there's no official word out about Red Cup Day for 2024, our best guess – based on the Red Cup Days of years past – is it'll return mid-November. In 2023, Red Cup Day fell on November 16. In 2022, the coffee chain held the event on November 17. Both dates landed on the third Thursday of November, so we predict it to hit on November 21 for 2024. Red Cup Day is when Starbucks customers can get a free reusable red cup when they order a seasonal drink off the holiday menu.

Drinks On The Starbucks Holiday Menu 2024

@markie_devo

NEW! Cran-Merry Orange Refresher

The Starbucks holiday menu leak reported that this brand-new Refresher is packed with sweet orange, tart cranberry and warm spice. It also has cranberry inclusions and is order-able mixed with water, lemonade or coconut milk.

Starbucks

Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai

Chai is a totally underrated holiday flavor in our opinion. This iced drink is crafted with warm chai spices and creamy oat milk, then gets topped with even more frothed oat milk infused with gingerbread-flavored syrup and a sprinkling of spice.

Starbucks

Peppermint Mocha

You know it, and you love it! The Peppermint Mocha has hit Starbucks menus year after year, making it a total statement sip for the holiday season. This drink (available hot or iced) combines peppermint syrup, mocha sauce, and your milk of choice with espresso for a festive feel. It's traditionally topped with whipped cream and tasty chocolate curls.

Starbucks

Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha

Similar to the classic Peppermint Mocha, this bev swaps chocolate for white chocolate sauce.

Starbucks

Caramel Brûlée Latte

This rumored Starbucks holiday menu drink is very rich. The sweet caramel brûlée sauce totally completes the sip, along with plenty of whipped cream and crunchy lil' brûlée bits for textural variety.

Starbucks

Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

Literally like a sugar cookie in liquid form, this super-sweet latte is handcrafted with blonde espresso (it's sweeter and lighter than Starbucks' traditional espresso shots), sugar cookie syrup, and almond milk for a little bit of a lighter effect. It's finished off with red and green sprinkles to up the seasonal vibes even more!

Starbucks

Chestnut Praline Latte

This nutty latte – rumored to return for 2024 – brings on notes of chestnut and praline, which is a nice, flavorful departure from the very expected peppermint you'll see everywhere come holiday time.

Starbucks

Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew

Initially introduced for fall 2024, it appears as though the Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew will stay on the Starbucks menu well into winter. The salted, pecan-flavored cold foam offers that classic sweet n' salty twist you'd enjoy on fall snacks like trail mix or dipped pretzels. The best part is you can now also order the cold foam in non-dairy form!

Starbucks

Holiday Cold Foams

Per the menu leak, Starbs will be bringing back four beloved holiday-flavored cold foamsand two new options for 2024. They're the perfect drink customization to add to your iced coffees and cold brews if you don't want to order an all-out holiday drink. See all the predicted flavors below:

  • NEW! Gingerbread
  • NEW! Salted Pecan
  • Peppermint Chocolate
  • Sugar Cookie
  • Chestnut Praline
  • Caramel Brûlée

Snacks On The Starbucks Holiday Menu 2024

@markie_devo

NEW! Dark Toffee Bundt

Per the menu leak, this sweet toffee-flavored bundt will be topped with holly- and berry-shaped sprinkles. How perfect for the holiday season!

@markie_devo

NEW! Turkey Sage Danish

This savory snack reportedly includes "turkey sausage with creamy béchamel sauce in a pastry." It sounds like Thanksgiving in a single treat, and we can't wait to try it!

@markie_devo

NEW! Penguin Cookie

This cutie sugar cookie is decorated like a lil' penguin bundled up for the cold.

Starbucks

Snowman Cake Pop

Starbucks' classic vanilla cake pop gets a wintry twist with an adorable snowman face – this sweet really makes us crave the holiday season!

Starbucks

Sugar Plum Cheese Danish

This cream cheese-filled danish is topped with a slightly-spiced sugar plum jam. It's been one of our go-to's over the past few holiday seasons at Starbucks!

Starbucks

Cranberry Bliss Bar

The Cranberry Bliss Bar has become an absolute staple on the Starbucks holiday menu, and for good reason! This blondie treat is smothered in a delicious cream cheese frosting and sprinkled with orange zest and dried cranberries for added seasonal enjoyment.

What People Are Saying About The Leaked Starbucks Holiday Menu

Though most commenters on @markie_devo's Starbucks holiday menu leak post seemed to be excited for the upcoming rumored menu items, some Starbs fans noticed a few things missing from the leaked lineup.

"Still missing eggnog 😢," someone noted.

"Where is the toasted white chocolate mocha 😢😢😢😢," another questioned.

"ALLLLLL these cold foams, and not the one people want: Irish Cream," one more commenter said.

"Ugh still no gingerbread loaf 😭," a disappointed user wrote. "Everything else looks bomb though!"

Despite the Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread loaf not being part of this year's menu predictions, the holiday season is our favorite time of year at Starbucks. Many more users shared the same sentiment:

"So excited for all chestnut praline shaken espressos & cranberry bliss bars 🎄🎄🎄🎄," someone wrote.

"Oh hell yess all the chestnut praline offerings," another rejoiced.

This post has been updated.

It seems Thanksgiving is barely a week away by the time we start thinking about the menu. But while ovens all over the country will be working overtime this year, don't forget your secret weapon — the crock pot! Kitchen strategy is key when you're trying to factor various cook and prep times for both oven and stovetop dishes. There just never seems to be enough time (or counter space).

Whether you're already finalizing your menu for the day or are just in charge of a few side dishes, we've scoured the web and found 18 Thanksgiving crock pot recipes that are perfect for any gathering.

Creamed Corn

Damn Delicious

Cornis a standard side dish for most Thanksgiving meals, but this recipe is a total game-changer. Five simple ingredients go in your crock pot, and three hours later you’re greeted by corn that is so creamy and delicious, you’ll never be able to eat the canned stuff again.

Wheat Bread Stuffing

Recipe Runner

Free up some room in your oven and cook the stuffing right on the counter this year. Crusty whole wheat bread, celery, onions and chicken broth will have you going back for seconds. Once it’s cooked, turn the heat to low and it will be ready whenever you are.

Brussels Sprouts

Damn Delicious

These aren’t Grandma’s Brussels sprouts. Covered in a brown sugar balsamic reduction and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, these sprouts will have you converted after just one bite.

Sweet Potatoes

The Magical Slow Cooker

This one takes minimal effort, but packs maximum flavor. Wash and dry your sweet potatoes before wrapping them in tinfoil and piling into the crock pot. Cook on high for six hours, and resist the urge to open the lid so the steam doesn’t escape. Serve with butter, brown sugar and mini marshmallows.

Apple Cider

Damn Delicious

Your guests are going to need something to sip on. Made 100% from scratch, this apple cider recipe will definitely steal the show: Combine apples, cinnamon sticks and spices and cover with water, and drink in the delicious smell while it simmers in the slow cooker.

Candied Sweet Potato Casserole

Creme de la Crumb

Okay, so this does require a little oven time, but it’ll be the last thing you heat up before you can dig in (and it’s totally worth it). Peel and chop 5lbs of sweet potatoes and let your slow cooker do all the work for the next four hours. Transfer to a casserole dish, spread a layer of pecans over the sweet potato mixture then bake for 20 minutes to achieve maximum crunch before adding the mini marshmallows. Bake for five more minutes (or until marshmallows are golden brown) and dig in.

Caramel Fondue

Creme de la Crumb

From apple slices to pretzels, there’s no wrong way to dunk with this dip, made from only three ingredients — caramels, heavy cream and marshmallows. Say hello to your new post-Thanksgiving party trick.

Garlic Ranch Potatoes

The Cookie Rookie

Tender red potatoes are a great alternative to the typical mashed variety. Top the wedges with ranch seasoning, chives and garlic for a fresh side dish that no one will believe you made entirely in the crock pot.

Cranberry Sauce Crock Pot Recipe

Gimme Some Oven

This is the ultimate set-it-and-forget-it recipe. Toss in the ingredients and come back in three hours for cranberry sauce that is the perfect combination of tart and sweet. Add a splash of vanilla extract right before serving.

Cinnamon Apples

A Spicy Perspective

The best side dishes double as dessert. Cover thinly sliced apples in brown sugar, cinnamon and bourbon, then simmer for four hours. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoy as is — they’re delicious either way.

Cranberry Meatballs

Spicy Southern Kitchen

Trade out the usual jar of grape jelly in your famous meatball recipe for cranberry sauce to give it a holiday update. The sweet and tangy flavor will keep you coming back for more. In fact, you better double the recipe.

Maple Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix

Averie Cooks

This tasty party snack is perfect for clearing out your cabinets: cereal, peanuts, pretzels, dried fruit and graham crackers all come together in a salty sweet crunch. Drench the mix in butter, maple syrup and pumpkin pie spices before testing your willpower for the next two hours.

Apple Pie Oatmeal

The Healthy Maven

Breakfast is still the most important meal of the day (especially on Thanksgiving), but this oatmeal couldn’t be easier: Toss all the ingredients into your slow cooker before you go to bed and you’ll wake up to the aroma of nutmeg and maple syrup.

Buttery Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Creme de la Crumb

A pile of fresh herbs, butter and garlic make these mashed potatoes stand out on the buffet table. Use red potatoes and leave the skins on for a rustic flair that not only adds a ton of flavor, it also saves you some work.

Spinach + Artichoke Dip

Damn Delicious

Keep your guests from getting hangry while they wait for dinner: Serve this creamy spinach and artichoke dip with bread, pretzels or pita for a Thanksgiving staple made super easy, thanks to your crock pot.

Butternut Squash Soup

Life Made Sweeter

Combine coconut milk with chunks of butternut squash and sweet potato, then cook in the crockpot for four hours. Once everything is fork tender, break out your immersion blender to make the texture velvety smooth. Top with extra coconut milk and toasted pumpkin seeds before devouring.

Pumpkin Cobbler

The Gunny Sack

Trade in your standard pumpkin pie for a cobbler that is made in the crock pot from start to finish. Pro tip: place a paper towel underneath the lid to keep the condensation off the food and ensure a crispy crust. Top the plated perfection with a dollop of whipped cream and caramel syrup.

Dinner Rolls

Lil Luna

The slow cooker might be the last place you'd think to bake dinner rolls, but trust us on this one. This trick comes in handy year-round, especially on hot summer days when you don't feel like blasting that oven. Genius.
