7 Fancy Clutches for Making Every Week Fashion Week

The time of year fashionistas live for is finally here: New York Fashion Week. Whether you’re hunting for celeb style inspo or fiercely following the top NYFW Instagrammers, it’s a fabulously frenetic time. And every busy girl knows that hectic times call for functional accessories. Enter the clutch: a great way to add style to your look while toting around your essentials — sans the hassle of a big ol’ bag. Check out these seven beauties we’ve corralled just in time for NYFW.

We realize it's not even March yet, but we are so ready for warmer spring weather. Along with the gentle change in the season comes a fresh set of fashion trends, and we're ready to hop on board. We got a peek at a ton of new trending styles at NYFW, and we're starting to see more trends emerge as spring approaches.

Though it's easy to shop with a trend-focused mind, collections like the & Other Stories Spring 2023 drop offer tons of timeless styles that can last you beyond one season. If you tend to stick to seasonal trends, consider how you can style the pieces you love all year long. Wear an oversized blazer with your go-to mock-neck top in the fall, then layer it over a flowy maxi dress for the spring and summer. This sustainable model for shopping and wearing can really stretch your wardrobe, and it allows you to be creative with your 'fits each time you get dressed!

The & Other Stories spring collection embraces pieces that can be worn for everyday looks, and statement picks to wear for special occasions. You'll see a lot of structured tailoring, long line coats, rosette details, and dainty accessories in soft pastels. We're excited to see some of our fave spring trends for this year and to start brainstorming how we're going to style them.

Our Favorite Pieces From The & Other Stories Spring 2023 Collection

Oversized Blazers

Oversized Padded Shoulder Blazer ($219)

A padded shoulder gives this oversized blazer lots of bold structure. Pair with workwear like wide-leg slacks for a chic office look, or wear over a mini slip dress on a girl's night out!

Oversized Parka Jacket ($149)

This jacket is structured, giving it a blazer feel with a cute outerwear twist. Layer it over bright colors for a stylish spring look.

Winter Florals

Buttoned V-Cut Midi Dress ($129)

A fitted dress enhances a super effortless feminine look. We love this midi spring dress because it's made of thin viscose fabric, making it a lighter wear, and easy to breathe in. Time to relish in the sweet spring breeze!

Printed Silk Blouse ($139)

This blouse embraces the same intricate floral pattern and colors in light cotton. Tuck in the curved hem with a fitted denim jean, and you've got yourself a new easy spring uniform.

Denim

Flared High Waist Jeans ($119)

Denim will never die, and we love that we're always seeing new, unique takes on the classic jean. This pair boasts two statement front pockets and a higher waistline to accentuate your figure, and give you a fun shape to pair your springtime tanks and sweaters with.

Treasure Cut Jeans ($99)

The Treasure Cut jean design features super wide legs and a high waist. These are truly a year-round closet staple because you can wear them with just about anything. For a casual look, throw on some Adidas sneakers and tuck in your fave band tee. To dress this jean up, layer on a light sweater and blazer with some ballerina flats!

Coquette

Embroidered Scalloped Edge Shirt ($119)

Coquette is a newer style term that embodies a feminine, flirty persona. You'll see a lot of frills, ribbons, florals, and lace, all in lighter pinks or whites. This organic cotton shirt flaunts frills on the cuffs and florals around the collar. We could see this piece being a cute go-to throughout the whole year.

Tie-Front Ribbed Cardigan ($99)

The tie-front cardigan is definitely an "add to bag" piece. The ribbons are the perfect understated take on the coquette trend, and make us feel all the girly feels.

Mulberry Silk Layered Frilled Blouse ($199)

This gorgeous blouse is a more courageous take on the coquette trend, with large shoulder frills and billowy puff sleeves. It's the perfect wear for springtime since it's loose-fitting — the long sleeves let you adapt to the chilly days, and but the carefree silhouette will keep you comfortable on warm days too.

Slime Green

Mock Neck Sweater ($59)

Slime green is a color we can totally get behind. It's electric and eye-catching, adding a ton of visual interest and pure fun to any outfit! You can totally crush this hue when paired with leather separates, like a black leather pant or oversized jacket.

Leather Separates

Curved Leather Shoulder Bag ($199)

If you are hesitant to dive fully in to the leather trend, dipping your toes in is made easy by accessorizing with leather pieces. This shoulder bag is sleek, so it's easy to pair with just about anything, plus it's super roomy so you can take all your daily necessities with you.

Heeled Leather Penny Loafers ($129)

Loafers are the hero of preppy style, and you can wear them with any springtime look. This pair is super comfortable, so catch us sporting these everywhere this season.

Strappy Kitten Heel Leather Sandals ($129)

A strappy sandal is the ultimate match for a floral dress when spring is in full swing. These also come in a vibrant teal blue color, so if you're feeling bold, go for that colorful look!

More of Our Fave Spring Trend Items

Wide Trousers ($119)

We can never get enough of a wide leg pant. These trousers are fit for a more formal spring look, and deliver all of the comfort.

Chunky Oval Hoop Earrings ($25)

Where would we be without our hoops? These chunky earrings wear well with any trendy spring outfit.

Cropped Knit Sweater ($49)

Cotton and wool blend together to form this warm sweater that you can throw on for cooler spring evenings. It comes in eight different colors, so you can pick your mood.

The Kansas City Chiefs suffered a Super Bowl tough loss on February 9, 2025, and there's one major thing on everyone's mind now — is Travis Kelce retiring? The subject's come up multiple times throughout the 2024-2025 NFL season, but much like his brother Jason the previous year, Travis hasn't given a definitive answer on the matter. Amid everything from Taylor Swift wedding rumors to starring TV roles (anyone else watch Grotequerie?!), the Chiefs tight end definitely has a lot going on right now. Could all this — plus an overall great football season, sans the Super Bowl loss — add up to the end of his NFL career? Here's what we know so far.

Scroll to find out everything we know about if Travis Kelce's retiring.

On February 12, 2025, Travis Kelce opened up about his potential retirement on the New Heights podcast. "I know everybody wants to know whether or not I'm playing next year, and right now, I'm just kicking everything down the road," he said. "I'm not making any crazy decisions."

Travis shared that the Super Bowl loss a "tough pill to swallow" and a "tough reality," but also noted that the Chiefs team is focused on "being there" for each other in the aftermath.

"I'm gonna take some time to figure it out. And, I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it's a wholehearted decision," he said. "I'm not half-a--ing it, and I'm fully here for them."

During the 2025 Super Bowl, Travis only made four catches, resulting in a gain of 39 yards — his "lowest postseason output since 2019" according to The Athletic. Still, USA Todayreported that he broke Jerry Rice's record of 35 career Super Bowl catches. However, it was pretty clear that even a record-breaking performance wasn't enough to bolster Travis's mood.

The football star didn't hold a larger post-game conference, but he noted that they "haven't played that bad all year" and said that the Chiefs "couldn’t get it going offensively" to a few reporters. He acknowledged, "You don't lose like that without everything going bad," before leaving for the night.

Still, Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes was asked about what comes next for Travis's career. "I'll let Travis make that decision on his own," Patrick said. "He's given so much to this team and to the NFL, and he's been such a joy, not only for me to work with, but for people to watch."

Mahomes notes Travis "still has a lot of football left in him" and that he "always makes plays in the biggest moments." He said, "But I know he still has a love for the game, and he’ll get to spend some time with his family and make that decision on his own."

Patrick reassured everyone, "He knows he’ll come back here with open arms. We love that guy not only for the football player, but for who he is every single day."

Travis made his way to the suite with Taylor and his family after the tough Chiefs loss. It was a stark contrast from his "fight for your right to party" vibes of last year, so we hope we was able to find some comfort among his loved ones. And as for if Travis is actually retiring, we'll definitely keep an eye out for what he says and does next. 👀

Blink, and you may have missed it — New York Fashion Week has already come to a close, after jam-packed days taking over the streets of New York (and our Instagram and TikTok). While the fashion set has already decamped to other festivities, like Sunday night's VMAs and Monday night's Met Gala affair, we're left salivating over all the NYFW Spring 2022 trends and inspiration for dressing next season. After a year and half hiatus, most of the major New York based brands showed up with IRL events and presentations that showed off a whole lot of optimism for next year. The colors were bright, the tailoring was relaxed, and the designs were all-around playful. Fashion seems to be saying the future will be bright — but for those of us who can't stand to wait any longer, here's how to start shopping for next season's biggest trends, now.

This splurge-worthy statement coat will add a whole lot of charm to your wardrobe for years of wear to come.

​Metallic Madness

As Seen At: Tom Ford, Rodarte, Christian Siriano

Tom Ford knows how to end Fashion Week with a bang — this year, it was with a sequined, satin-filled, majorly-metallic moment that (literally) mirrored other collections with celebratory sentiment. If the best is yet to come next spring, the least we can do is start dressing the part!

River Island Sequin Halter Top ($50)

The runways have confirmed: You no longer need an occasion to justify wearing a sequined halter top out.

Commando Sequined Leggings ($200)

These are the kind of leggings that make you want to dance as soon as you put them on — which is the point of this trend to begin with.

City Chic Class Satin Joggers ($79)

Get ahead of the metallics trend so you can wear your new pieces through the holidays, too. Hopefully, as fashion has predicted, there will be plenty to celebrate by then!

A fresh coat of paint on your front door is one of the easiest, most affordable ways to boost your curb appeal and try something different with the exterior of your home. After all, it's something you see every day and costs just the price of a gallon of paint to refresh. According to Zillow, front door paint colors can impact the number of offers and how long your home sits on the market. Darker colors tend to inspire higher resale value, but while you live and enjoy your home go with a color that you love.

Here are 15 inspiring paint colors for your front door.

Clare Paint

Earthy green paint colors, like Clare Paint Daily Greens, are becoming the new neutral for front doors. They give a natural, welcoming vibe and pair beautifully with brick, wood, or stone. Choose natural shades like olive, sage, and moss for timeless curb appeal.

Leah Newhouse

Blue door colors like Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines in Deep Denim Blue or Benjamin Moore in Prussian Blue will always be classic in this inviting Mediterranean blue hue. Refreshing your shutters if you have them is also a good idea!

Lina Kivaka

Deep reddish browns are also giving front doors a burst of color. Try Benjamin Moore's Cottage Red or Backdrop's Self Portrait for this regal look.

Benjamin Moore

Benjamin Moore's Aegean Teal on the front door is a lovely compliment to the soft blue-green Gray Cashmere 2138-60 on the interior walls.

Go for a dramatic and refined look with Behr's Black Evergreen (MQ6-44). Think shaded groves with its deep dark green color.
