The Unexpected Print That Will Be Dominating Your Wardrobe This Fall

If the fall runway shows and latest Instababe sightings are any indication, then it won’t be long before you’re embracing military-inspired camo prints with open arms. Whether you rock a RiRi-style faux fur camo parka over a bodycon dress or test drive an ultra-femme camo print blouse for the boardroom, the versatility of this tough-girl pattern shall not be overlooked. Still not convinced? We’ve compiled 16 delightfully unexpected camouflage items that deserve to be added to your slew of statement-making pieces for a season of #winning looks. Combat boots not required, but definitely appreciated.

1. Reclaimed Vintage Overdye Military Jacket in Camo Print ($73): *THIS* is the camo print topper you didn’t know you needed, but now won’t be able to live without. The purple hue is a welcome change of pace from your typical army green — but don’t be mistaken; it’s no less fierce. Dial up the drama with a boxy knit sweater, a bodycon skirt and Doc Martens for an off-duty uniform that takes you from a.m. to p.m.

2. Reclaimed Vintage Military Jacket in Camo Print With All Over Cactus ($89): Where, oh where, was this rad military cactus print jacket during festival season? Roll up the sleeves just a smidge and toss it on alongside some distressed boyfriend jeans, for a casual-cool getup that doesn’t mess around. Factor in a plaid button-down and some cowgirl boots for instant Southwestern flair.

3. TNA Alix Pant ($85): Part athleisure, part military brat, these casual camo print pants were made for a lazy Monday spent working from home. Not only are they ridiculously comfortable (hello, drawstring waist!), but they’ll take you from tackling your inbox to heading out for a mid-afternoon coffee run like that. Did we mention they’re SUPER soft? We digress.

4. Zara Camouflage Dungarees ($70): Maybe you’re gearing up for hunting season or perhaps you’re just a camo enthusiast. We’re leaning toward the latter. These camo dungarees would look best styled with a ribbed turtleneck sweater and a knit beanie for a brisk afternoon in the park. Avoid fluorescent orange at all costs in favor of ‘90s-style hoop earrings and combat boots for a grunge aesthetic that slays.

5. Nasty Gal On a Warpath Camo Cardigan ($68): Rest assured there won’t be any blending in with this camouflage cardigan that will keep you snug and stylin’ on nippy mornings. Put the va-va in the voom with a lace-up bodysuit and suede OTK boots, or prep for a GNO with a come-hither slip dress and lace-up boots.

6. French Connection Adeline Dream Camo Relaxed Shirt ($108): If you thought camouflage was reserved solely for self-proclaimed tomboys, then guess again. This sophisticated camo-floral print blouse is for the London girl in all of us. Proceed to toss it on alongside cropped flares, pointed ankle boots and a chic fedora for a low-key date night or an evening spent barhopping. Sign us up, please.

7. Free People Cap Sleeve Camo ($128): ICYMI: Camouflage is the new animal print. This camo print cap-sleeve button-down, complete with utilitarian pockets, is more than deserving of a spot in your weekly wardrobe rotation. It takes two seconds flat to style with jeans (just add backless loafers) and can be popped right over a leather mini skirt for the easiest #OOTN (outfit of the night) yet.

8. Charles & Keith Camo Print Crossbody ($86): Baby steps, people, baby steps! Girls on the go will appreciate the versatility of this free-wheelin’ camo print cross-body bag that can double as a clutch for post-work drinks. With culottes or a LBD in tow, you’ll easily be the bossest babe around.

9. Express Camouflage Soft Twill Popover Shirt Dress ($70): Take note: Every girl needs a popover shirt dress this non-fussy on standby. You’ll be inspired to reach for it on lazy mornings when you press snooze one too many times, for a look that screams modern-day G.I. Joe. Size up for a more effortless fit or cinch the waist with a belt for a hint of sexy.

10. River Island Khaki Camo Pumps ($70): Channel major confidence and swagger at your nine-to-five with these camo pumps that can stand on their own. They’ll look best paired with tapered trousers, a slinky white blouse and an after hours-approved leather moto jacket. Come the weekend, distressed black skinnies and an off-duty sweatshirt will be your jam.

11. Topshop Tall Camo Print Jumpsuit ($74): Too much camo? No such thing. A one-piece wonder with this much cool-girl appeal will always do you right. It’s sultry enough to hit the dance floor, but conservative enough to suit up for the office — suede mules and a smart blazer are required for any and all after-hours affairs. Pssst: It even has pockets.

12. Rag & Bone Woodland Camo Scarf ($195): Enough with the plaid blanket scarves already — this camo print scarf is made for edgy girls who swear by leather jackets and biker boots on the daily. Proceed to pair it with a white V-neck tee and gray skinny jeans for an alternative look that doesn’t cramp your style.

13. Missguided Tall Camo Print Pencil Skirt ($24): Camo for the boardroom? We can’t speak for HR, but to us this gray camo print pencil skirt looks legit enough to work the reception desk. Teamed with a cream-colored mock neck sweater and Chelsea boots, it could also double for a night on the town with your squad.

14. Free People Teddy Toggle Coat ($198): Just a reminder that cold weather happens, y’all! Enter the cuddly Sherpa toggle coat, featuring a built-in camo shirt, that will shield you against the elements this winter. Between frigid morning commutes and trips out to the pumpkin patch, it’ll serve as a way chic alternative to any oversized puffer.

15. After Party by Nasty Gal You Know the Drill Camo Tee ($48): Introducing the anything-but-basic basic you need in your life STAT. This green and brown camo print tee with a ribbed neckline (AKA your new secret weapon in disguise) will style itself on more occasions than you can count. Pair it with streamlined leather joggers or denim overalls for a dialed-down look, and don’t hesitate to tie a silk square scarf around your neck for instant panache.

16. Zara Short Camouflage Print Quilted Coat ($100): Turn down for what? Keep the camo haters away with this fly quilted coat that’ll shut ‘em down in just one sighting. Pair with track pants for an off-the-clock look or reach street MVP status with a crop top, high-waisted mom jeans and fuzzy steppers. Either way, you’ve got this.

20 Bauhaus Prints To Add A Pop Of Color To Your Space

Bauhaus, German for "building house," has become synonymous with geometric and abstract art, architecture, and design, inspired by the early 20th-century movement that launched Staatliches Bauhaus, a utopian art school in Germany. Founded in 1919 by German architect Walter Gropius (and where Paul Klee, Vasily Kandinsky, and Josef Albers were teachers), the Bauhaus school influenced what we know as modern design today, and has inspired architects, designers and artists for more than 100 years. Often saturated in retro mid-century color or totally minimal black and white, Bauhaus prints can feel modern and retro all at once and can add a punch to most home decor styles.

They also keep their relationship pretty private. Here's the latest news on it.

Tom Holland and Zendaya actually took to Twitter (now X) to tackle the rumors. "Wait wait...my favorite is when it says we go on vacations together HA! I haven't been on a vacation in years!" Zendaya says, to which Tomreplies, "Does the press tour count[?]"

November 17, 2021 — Tom Holland And Zendaya Open Up About Their Relationship

In an interview with GQ, Tom Holland opened up about his relationship with Zendaya and how their relationship to fame has impacted everything. "One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn’t really in our control anymore, and a moment that you think is between two people that love each other very much is now a moment that is shared with the entire world,” he says of their July 2 kiss. “I’ve always been really adamant to keep my private life private, because I share so much of my life with the world anyway...We sort of felt robbed of our privacy.”

“It was quite strange and weird and confusing and invasive,” Zendaya agrees. “I think loving someone is a sacred thing and a special thing and something that you want to deal with and go through and experience and enjoy amongst the two people that love each other."

“Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible," Tom later told The Hollywood Reporter. "We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers.”

The London premiere of Dune 2 was *very* eventful.

"He's just naturally very good at that. Or as for me, I've definitely had to pull it out of me a little bit. He's got that natural gift."

Ahead of Zendaya's spring movie Challengers (in which she plays a tennis pro-turned-coach opposite Mike Faist and Josh O'Connor), she watched the BNP Paribas Open Men's Final at Indian Wells Tennis Garden. Alongside Tom Holland and her assistant Darnell Appling, who she frequently calls her brother, Zendaya got comfy in a cream-colored tennis skirt, tank top, and zip-up hoodie ensemble. Spring really is here!! My favorite part of the afternoon is when Tom Holland and Zendaya sang along with Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody."

April 9, 2024 — Zendaya Raves About Tom Holland

In her Vogue cover story for May 2024, Zendaya talks a lot about how fame has affected both her life and Tom Holland's. “His [career] changed overnight. One day you’re a kid and you’re at the pub with your friends, and then the next day you’re Spider-Man,” she says. “I definitely watched his life kind of change in front of him. But he handled it really beautifully.”

That star power was evident in 2022, when Tom Holland and Zendaya spent the afternoon at the Louvre in Paris...and almost broke the internet. “You just kind of get used to the fact that, 'Oh, I’m also one of these art pieces you’re going to take a picture of. I just gotta be totally cool with it and just live my life,'" Zendaya continues. (She also says that when the museum let them walk around after-hours, "it was like Night at the Museum.”)

This spring, Zendaya can't wait to see Tom Holland in his London production of Romeo & Juliet: "[I] could not be more proud. I’m going to try to see as many shows as I possibly can.”

April 10, 2024 — Challengers Premieres In London

Tom Holland showed up for the London premiere of Challengers, and got to support Zendaya in the sweetest way. In this video captured at the premiere, you can see Tom and Z share a hug and a kiss on the cheek during the evening. Even the smallest gesture can mean a lot during a busy night, and I love how in sync Tom Holland and Zendaya are!

The latest viral clip about Tom Holland and Zendaya also has to do with Challengers. During another Challengers press tour stop, Zendaya's overjoyed to be presented with a bouquet of gardenias. “These are my favorite flowers!” she exclaims. When asked if Tom Holland buys her flowers, she points at the camera and jokes, “I hope he's watching!”

While not every girlfriend necessarily wants a bouquet, every couple definitely has to figure out each other's love languages so they can get to know each other better — and apparently A-listers are the exact same!

October 15, 2024 — Tom Holland Launches A New Company With Unexpected Help From Zendaya

After going sober in 2022, Tom Holland announced on October 15 he was launching a non-alcoholic drink company called Bero. “When I got sober, I started exploring the world of non-alcoholic beers and realized there was space for me to fit in,” Tom says in an interview with Forbes. “My first year sober was really difficult, and had I had Bero, I think it would have been easier.”

“Zendaya hates beer, like, absolutely hates beer," he continues. And when she helped with the taste testing, a joke helped guide the overall brand. "She does not drink beer at all, and the first round of testing she was like, ‘Wow, these are really tasty’, and I was like, ‘Well, that's probably not a good sign.'"

And at the launch event for Bero in New York City, Tom and Zendaya wore matching shades of burgundy! Z stunned in a floor-length leather dress while Tom paired a short sleeve sweater with black trousers.

October 15, 2024 — Zendaya Reveals Why She'd Never Take A Dance Class With Tom Holland

While speaking to Teen Vogue for her partnership with On, Zendaya reveals she'd probably avoid dance classes with Tom Holland because "he's too good, it would piss me off," she jokes. "I would want to take someone who could be equally as bad as me."

"Kayaking, I would choose Tom because I think that, if I can remember correctly, with the kayak, you have to be in sync with the person," she continues. "And I think it would be hilarious because we are both very controlling and we both want to be in charge. So it would be funny to watch us be like, no, we're going to go this way. No, we're going to go that way. And I think it would be a good story after the fact."

I Found The Best Drugstore Lipstick — & I Already Bought It 3x In A Row

Move over expensive MAC haul — I've discovered the best drugstore lipstick that rivals my $20+ purchases. I love finding dupes for my beauty lovers who can't continuously drop a huge amount of money on new products that eventually expire. Since I'm 100% against using old makeup, I'd rather chat your eat off about the affordable drugstore finds I'm using consistently these days.

IMO, the best drugstore lipstick is the Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink Lipstick! Coming from one of the OG beauty brands, it's formula was surprising because I almost expected it to fail. It sounds silly, but trying drugstore brands used to be a hit or miss before social media started demanding that all makeup products stop being subpar.

Since this lipstick passed the test, here's everything you need to know about it — including why I l keep buying it and all the other best drugstore lipsticks I love!

What is Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink used for?

Jasmine Williams

Anyone can say that their lipstick is THE BEST, but that's not always true. So, what's the tea on the Super Stay Matte Ink formula? According to the brand's notes on Amazon, here's what you can expect to this lipstick to do:

  • Glide on easily because of the "unique arrow application"
  • Provide a "perfectly matte" finish
  • Remain "smudge-free" for up to "16 hours"

It sounds like a lot of fluff if you've never tried the formula before, so I scrolled through the comment section to see what other customers think.

What are other customers saying about it?

Maybelline

Most of the customer reviews I read through on Amazon are extremely thorough so here are the ones that stood out the most:

  • "I am really hooked on this lipstick! It's very long wearing and it's super gentle on my lips...Let me address some common complaints among other reviewers and why I think they're wrong...Oil takes this stuff off quite easily, so do some makeup wipes...Secondly, I do agree that this product is very sticky. I have found that I can put my Mac lipgloss on over top and now it's not sticky anymore!"
  • "I’ve purchased this longevity wand type lipstick a few times and I like the texture and staying power. Sometimes I put another glossy lipstick over if it seems drying however it stays very nicely for the day."
  • "This is my first time purchasing this brand. When I say it last all day, it doesn't come off until you take it off! Some might see this as bothersome, but having it stay on until I need it off is the greatest thing."
  • My Favorite Review: "I put it on at around 3:30 pm and fell asleep with it on cause it was a busy night, it was still on the next morning. I had to use multiple makeup remover wipes and wash my face with a good makeup remover to get it off."

My Review For Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink Lipstick

Jasmine Williams

I used to be terrified of wearing 'nude' lip colors because I thought they would be too much of a contrast against my complexion, but watching a few YouTube tutorials nipped my fear in the bud. I make the 'Seductress' shade work for me by lining my lips with a dark brown liner. Once I did that, I immediately fell for the way it looks on me. It's to the point where I actually can't stop wearing lip combo — it's so easy to apply and takes less than two minutes to set!

How long does Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink Lipstick last?

Before I started applying gloss over my nude lip combo, I wanted to test two very important things:

  1. If this matte lipstick could pass the smudge-proof test. I've tried other brands, and they haven't always stayed in place — especially when eating or drinking something — so I was skeptical.
  2. How long it actually lasts, smudge-proof or not. I mean, who among us hasn't gotten home after an evening out to find their lipstick basically nonexistent?

Like one of the customer reviews suggests, this lipstick has come off a little while eating things like pasta or pizza, so it's not 100% "smudge-free." Given that, I only had to reapply this lipstick once throughout an 8-hour day — which isn't a huge deal to me because it takes less than 30 seconds to reapply it. The best way I get it to stay put is by applying lip gloss and a teeny amount of setting spray over it.

Target

Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink Lipstick

Lately, I've even been adding the Maybelline Lifter Gloss in the shade 'Stone' as a way to truly lock in the color. It highlights the 'Seductress' shade of the Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink Lipstick which is a huge plus for me.

For less than $12, I think it's absolutely worth buying multiple times!

More Best Drugstore Lipsticks

Target

The Lip Bar Vegan Matte Liquid Lipstick

When I'm in the mood for a universal red lipstick that has the best color payoff, I always turn to The Lip Bar's 'Bawse Lady.' She's a gorgeous blue-red that highlights all undertones without making anyone looked washed out.

Target

Revlon Colorstay Limitless Matte Lipstick

I discovered Revlon's Colorstay formula while browsing for a deeper lipstick for fall and it does not disappoint! It's another vegan product that has triple hyaluronic acid and upcycled cranberry extract in it so it literally feels like you're not wearing anything on your lips!

Target

Milani Color Fetish Matte Lipstick

The word 'Fetish' may be off-putting, but don't write this lipstick off because of the name — ha! I typically wear this when I don't want to wait for a liquid lipstick to dry. It's super velvety and also contains hyaluronic acid in it to help keep lips moisturized.

Target

Nyx Professional Makeup Smooth Whip Matte Lip Cream

Last but not least, Nyx has never let me down in the lip department before. If I'm truly shopping on a budget, I'll reach for the Smooth Whip Matte Lip Cream because it glides on my lips like butter. That's not to say I know what it feels like to rub butter all over my lips, but you get what I mean! It's soft and has a gorgeous color payoff that makes me feel like it's comparable to the best lipstick I swear by.

How To Turn 1 Flannel Shirt Into 6 Halloween Costumes

Dudes — do you own a flannel? Well, we're pretty sure that you do, so behold SIX different ideas for easy costumes for men using that one shirt! You're welcome. Even if you have a different Halloween party every day of the week, you'll have different costumes you can wear to each one. Not only are they made with things you already own, but they're also pretty comfortable if we do say so ourselves.

To make these epic Halloween costumes, we picked up this basic red flannel from our local thrift store for $5 and paired it with a bunch of basic clothes most men already have. Scroll on to see how we made these super easy (last-minute even!) halloween costumes!

Brit + Co

Thanks to Zane for rocking all of these looks!

The Brawny Man Halloween Costume

Brit + Co

Men, get those muscles and those pearly whites ready for this flannel shirt costume! In our eyes, the Brawny Man has everything we're looking for. He’s got that tough muscle bod to swoop us off our feet, the square jaw line to melt our hearts and the perfect dark hair that we just can’t wait to run our fingers through.

Brit + Co

First, shop the (hilarious) Muscle Shirt. Think of it like a push-up bra for your entire torso. Cut off the lower arm section of the muscle suit so you can roll up the flannel sleeves and get down to business. Don't forget to grab a pack of Brawny paper towels to complete the costume!

Brit + Co

Don't panic if you start saying things like, “Oh gosh, is that some dirt over there on your vanity mirror? Girl, I’ve got you. Let me fix that.”

Brit + Co

We're giving this two thumbs' up because it's such an easy costume for men!

Al Borland Halloween Costume

Brit + Co

Remember this 90s sidekick from Home Improvement? Go as him or just any tool-belt-loving fella ;).

Brit + Co

This is a super easy costume for men because if you're a workman, you probably already have the flannel, boot cut jeans, and work boots! The key to getting this look right, however, is all about the accessories. We purchased this basic tool belt from Amazon. Fill it with your tools (or a flask) to really get you in the Halloween spirit.

Brit + Co

We all hate measuring to hang up your favorite framed pieces of wall art. Don’t worry, Al is here to save the day!

Brit + Co

If you don't want to commit to a full bushel of a beard, we understand. We picked up this fake beard and find the look quite comical. You can trim it to get a look that you like best.

Larry The Cable Guy Halloween Costume

Brit + Co

“I'm happier than a tornado in a trailer park!" There's nothing better than a man who can make you laugh. Larry the Cable Guy has a particular kind of humor, but the one thing we can always count on him for is his sleeveless flannel shirts. I guess he must always be running warm.

Brit + Co

Get ready to release some anger, because you’ll need to rip off the sleeves for this look. (Meaning that if you're planning on using all of these costumes, you might want to save this one for last). Pair your sleeveless flannel with boot cut jeans, boots and a trucker-inspired baseball cap.

Brit + Co

This look says, “My cooking is probably subpar, but I can make you laugh while we try to cook together.” ;)

Brit + Co

Larry's signature look is his goatee-mustache combo. We weren't going to subject Zane to actually shaving for this costume, so instead we created the look with a fake goatee stick-on beard and a brown eyebrow pencil. Easy as pie.

The Hipster Halloween Costume

Brit + Co

Does your beer brewing side hobby need your constant attention?

Brit + Co

Zane completely dressed for this costume himself from his own wardrobe. Pair your flannel with a V-neck tee, cuffed slim-fitting jeans and your best pair of leather loafers. Accessories are a must — think thick-rimmed glasses, beanie hat and a cold beer. PBR or Tecate will do the trick, since you are already in the process of creating the perfect beer yourself ;)

Brit + Co

Need man bun styling tips? Or man braids if your hair is long enough.

Marty McFly Halloween Costume

Brit + Co

Okay, real talk – can you believe the year Marty traveled to in his time machine was 2015? How time flies (even if the cars don't).

Brit + Co

Marty’s iconic look is all about the layers, so be sure to add a jean jacket and that signature puffy vest over the flannel. Pair with boot cut jeans and the whitest pair of 90’s (dad) sneakers you own.

Brit + Co

Zach let us borrow his board but you can find an inexpensive skateboard on Amazon too.

Brit + Co

Keep the hair simple. We went for a side part and wind-blown vibes — traveling through time is windy, right?

Wind-blown Man Costume

Brit + Co

We’ve all had those bad umbrella days…All jokes aside, this look was our absolute favorite to create. We are just dying over the fact that no wind or fan was used in creating this photo.

Brit + Co

We had Zane dress in a normal everyday outfit, then added some wind-blown tweaks. You will want to stick wire down the inside of your tie to give it a rippled shape and then safety pin it to corner of the flannel. We also pinned up the bottom corner of the shirt and taped on some wind-blown newspaper ads to the knee of the pants. Most importantly, you’ll want a broken, inside-out umbrella to complete this costume.

And that's a wrap!
