google “cat lady” and you’ll find everything from Taylor Swift memes to the “Are You Destined to Become a Crazy Cat Lady” quiz, which asks if you’re the single friend or if you eat cereal out of the box. Well, yes, I do, but that’s beside the point. When did owning cats (which I also do, proudly!) become synonymous with being lonely and undesirable? Why the hate? IMO, cats— intelligent and self-sufficient— are the millennial woman’s spirit animal. So I’m happy that major fashion brands from Gucci to Marc Jacobs have kitties in their recent collections, helping to flip “cat lady” into a wearable badge of pride. They call it a catwalk for a reason! —JenniferLance November’s Must-Read The title of Zadie Smith’s new book, Swing Time, is a tipoff:…

Q I want to start layering more. So what’s your must-have layering piece? And how do you wear it? —Elizabeth, 30, Richmond, Va. A I have the free world’s supply of vests, so that’s my answer. I wear them under and over coats. One of the things I love about them is that if I’m wearing a traditional look, a Windbreaker-type vest underneath gives a f lash of color. I have one that’s orange, and I probably wouldn’t wear it on its own, but under a navy coat, it’s a fun pop. And I love putting a furry vest underneath a tailored wool coat so you have just a hint peeking out. That texture can also look great under a slick puffer coat. Or wear your vest over a jacket—I…

I believe there’s a secret designer in all of us—and I found mine this year when I was tasked with helping create Glamour and Lane Bryant’s new collection of chic size-14-and-up clothes. As a former plus-size model and a bigger-than-average fashion person constantly frustrated by the lack of stylish options in my size, I jumped (OK, lunged) at the opportunity. And with our collection hitting stores this fall, and new items arriving monthly, I’m sharing what I learned along the way: 1. The old rules don’t exist. If you’re above a size 14, you’ve most likely been instructed to avoid horizontal stripes, cover your arms, blend in by wearing black—the list of nauseating commands goes on and on. Because of those conventions, plus-size labels often play it safe. But Glamour…

HER FAVORITE FACE POWDER “[Blac Chyna] and I are very different when it comes to beauty, but the powders from her line are really good.” HER BEAUTY COLLABORATOR “Flirt creative director Donald Robertson, who made this illustration for our launch party, first reached out to me on Instagram.” HER EYE-OPENING TOOLS “Lashes have always been my thing.” HER SIGNATURE LOOK “Pink cheeks and a red lip. I like the new MAC gloss that turns matte.” My latest project: I still have no idea why [Flirt Cosmetics] even wanted me! I thought they were going to come in and say, “Hey, can you grow your hair out? Cover your tattoos up?” Instead it was “We love your buzz cut. We love all your tattoos. We love your feminism. We’re obsessed with…

Boutique fitness classes like SoulCycle and Pure Barre can run upwards of $35 a pop, a price many women are willing to pay for the expertise of the instructors and the community of exercisers. But if you want a little of that vibe at home, here’s how I, Glamour’s health editor, re-create my favorite studio sessions. When I crave a treadmill class: I love Mile High Run Club, a treadmill studio in New York City, but when I can’t get there, Skyfit (from $10 a month, App Store) is my savior. You can download classes for treadmills, stationary bikes, and ellipticals—no more hopping on a machine with no idea what to do. The instructor-created playlists match the music with the intensity, and the time flies. When I need (virtual) people…

“I grapple with this question every day. Nobody knows what to do while dating anymore! A lot of guys are trying to be good feminists, so they won’t insist on paying, and other men are traumatized by the idea of a woman going on dates with them just for a free meal, so they split the bill to make sure you’re actually interested. If a guy really likes you, I think most times he’ll want to pick up the check. But also know that for a lot of guys, picking up the tab does make them feel entitled to another date. That doesn’t mean you have to go, but if you’re OK dealing with that expectation, go for it. You can be a feminist who also romantically wants to be…

Gunfight that wounded Berkeley Country deputy part of ‘terrible’ trend in US, sheriff says When I was 10, my family and I would watch Cops every Saturday. I remember thinking, I wanna go chase bad people. As I got older, I learned more about the real risks of being a police officer, but still, there was nothing else I wanted to do. On the night shift I’m usually hard at work getting guns and drugs off the streets. It’s tiring, yet some nights I can’t sleep because of what I’ve seen. But right now I’m on light-duty status, doing office work because I was shot while on the job in February. (More on that in a minute.) I should be back on the road by October, and I’m not scared…

Tipping Point If Clinton is elected, women would run three of the world’s seven largest economies— those of the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. But do female leaders do things better? See page 176. One of two things will happen on the night of November 8, 2016: Either Hillary Clinton will be elected the first female president in U.S. history—or she will become the first woman in 227 years to come thisclose to the Oval Office. As Glamour went to press, the majority of young women were rooting for Door Number One, preferring Clinton two to one in a head-to-head race against GOP nominee Donald J. Trump, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll. You may or may not be among them, but regardless of outcome,…

Turn Up the Volume Say it loud, say it proud: Stand out with ultrahigh platforms or a vibrant bag. Earn Your Stripes Look for graphic patterns on everything now. Wear with solids or other patterns. Because freedom! Go Patriotic Hey, it is election season. Choose red, white, and blue on sneaker-slides or a mini bag #forthewin.…

Seeing Red I’m calling it: The now-est shade in hair color officially goes to candy apple red. Seen on women like Georgia May Jagger, Katy Perry, and Rita Ora (and inspired, maybe, by David Bowie’s 1970s crimson?), the hue is having a major moment. Intrigued? Test the waters with temporary color (try Garnier Intense Wash-Out color in Red Temptation, $8, at drugstores) or a wig— the one here was designed by Perry’s official wig master, Shon Ju, but you can find cute options on manicpanic.com. As someone who’s been a cinnamon shade of red for a while now, I’m ready to dial it up. —Lindsay Schallon, senior digital beauty editor Owning Your Vote Need a reminder of why it’s important to vote? This early-1900s postcard attacking American suffragettes does it…

Who’s That Girl? She’s model Emanuela De Paula, 27, and she loves a long menswear coat. “My style is a mix of masculine and feminine,” she says, “so I usually balance the tailored coat with a pretty ballerina flat or heel.” Sporty Spice Athleisure fans: Check these sleek red, white, and black staples. Oh, and a bold lip never hurts! Your Inspiration “Alone, the sweater is casual,” says De Paula. “But the chic turtleneck and metallic bag dress it up.” (A classic wool coat and polished wide-leg pants would look terrific too.)

1 A Wild Collab Fashion editors love to look back on H&M’s designer collaborations (Balmain, Versace). This time the Swedish superstore has teamed up with Kenzo, known for its signature color-blocking and animal prints. I can’t wait to rush into stores November 3 for a tiger-print coat! —Noah Silverstein, @noahsilverstein 2 The Best New Coat Brand I discovered Saks Potts last winter when every streetstyle star (like Pernille Teisbaek, left) was cozying up in its coats. Now the brand is expanding into accessories, like irresistible silk scarves and fur chokers. Snap ’em up at sakspotts.com. —Shilpa Prabhakar Nadella, @shilpa p nadella 3 Menswear for Us For No21’s new Petite Taille collection, creative director Alessandro Dell’Acqua copied his menswear in women’s sizes. Voilà: borrowedfrom-the-boys realness that fits. Now my man can…

Call it “sexture,” or messy, justrolled-around hair. It’s soft, shiny, nuanced—and more often than not, it’s the work of celebrity hairstylist Adir Abergel, who has used his trademark wave technique to create Marion Cotillard’s piecey bob, Rosario Dawson’s perfectly undone strands, Nicola Peltz’s bendy volume, and dozens of other looks. (Just check his In sta gram, @hairbyadir, to see the variety.) His rule: “You have parts that are blown out and others that feel more textured,” rather than uniform waves all over. “If you want to feel beautiful but not overly done, this is your look,” he says. Here’s how to nail it in four steps. STEP 1 Start Clean Begin with freshly washed hair. “You want fullness and volume, and the only way to get that is without oily…

from the time you get your period, you’re tracking it; I know patients who plan sex, their vacations, even their outfits around their cycles. And then sometimes… it changes. Of course that would spark questions! Here’s what to know before you freak out. If Your Period Is Suddenly Heavier Bleeding so much you need double your usual pads or tampons? If one period is crazy heavy, wait it out, but if a few in a row are, you may have developed a polyp or fibroids in your uterus. Sounds scary, but these benign growths are more of a nuisance than a danger. Or you may be experiencing a hormonal imbalance in your thyroid or pituitary—also completely treatable. Your doctor can order blood tests or an ultrasound to figure out the…

i skipped work the day after I got dumped (in a Panera Bread, no less) because I felt physically ill from the ordeal. But a day later I was fine, if a little prone to weeping. Sure, I was gutted by my sudden breakup, but I wasn’t really worried about my future: I would heal better than a friggin’ starfish, I told myself; I would become, to borrow from Fiona Apple, a better version of me. I was going to pull a Breakfast at Tiffany’s and have a tiara, a fancy cigarette, and a dog named Dog (I don’t like cats). I was going to be JUST FINE. And I was. But the world didn’t seem to think so: Little did I know, that day in the Panera, that I…

i’ve always loved a celebration. After my husband, Colin, and I threw an awesome wedding on a small budget in 2005, my boss asked if I’d help a neighbor whose daughter was getting married. I agreed and started getting so many requests to plan other parties that I quit my job to start my own events company. Fast-forward to 2008: I had $4 million in business and was pregnant with my daughter, Lizzie. Taking a rare day off, I was on a plane to visit a friend, reading an article about birthday parties, and I got excited imagining the Pinterest-worthy bashes I’d throw my child. Then I turned to another magazine. Staring back at me like a smack in the face was an image of a little boy with no…

i n the pilot episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, my character Rebecca googles, “How long can a person go without sleep?” It may seem like a weird thing to look up, but that scene was inspired by me at my very worst. Rebecca is depressed, and as my cocreator, Aline Brosh McKenna, and I were writing that episode, the anxiety and depression that had invaded my own brain like an alien when I was a kid came back in full force. It all started with one sleepless night: Aline and I were pitching the show to networks the next day. In my head, this was my chance to “make it,” which hinged on my performing in those meetings. I had a friend staying over, and suddenly it was midnight. I said…

Her Headspace “I had to go through [losses] to know I could stay sober through anything,” says Lovato. Body Say “I don’t have a sixpack,” says Lovato. “Maybe I don’t even want a six-pack. It doesn’t sound very appealing.” I first saw Demi Lovato perform at Jones Beach in New York in August 2010—and at 22, I was one of the oldest people in the arena. Lovato, then a Disney superstar, was on her Camp Rock 2 tour with the Jonas Brothers. I joined the sea of screaming tweens and sang along. So much has changed since then: Lovato left that tour early to seek treatment for cocaine use, bulimia, cutting, and bipolar disorder. She received intensive treatment in 2011 and in 2012 entered a sober-living facility for more…

During her time in the public eye, Hillary Clinton’s popularity has bounced from devastating lows during her early First Lady days to soaring highs at the start of her tenure as secretary of state. At press time the majority of young women say they’re voting for Clinton—but 45% still hold some negative feelings toward her. (She’s got nothing on Donald Trump, though; 78% of young women view him negatively.) Here, a look at how we feel now, after a year of brutal campaigning. Is She a Good Role Model for Women? 54% of women say she is, while 44% disagree. As one young woman put it in a focus group: “She’s been under public scrutiny for a very long time, and she has handled herself pretty well.” Added another: “She’s…

YAAAAASSSS! @bellahadid looking in @dkny for the September issue of @glamourmag. —@endabfashion, via Twitter Reading about all the women [in “We Are America”] pursuing their talents gave me goose bumps and inspired me to pick up my writing again. My goal is to write a novel and a screenplay— thank you, Glamour! —Vaia Tselios, Whitestone, N.Y. I loved the idea of 50 women sharing what it means to be a woman in America today, but I was less excited when 19 of the 50-plus women included “model” as one of their job titles. I don’t want to discount the amazing things these women do, yet how about firefighters or teachers? Custodians, chefs, therapists, scientists, stay-at-home moms? I feel like you missed the mark. —Lindsay Devaurs, Bakersfield, Calif The September issue…

1 These jeans balance the look of the oversize shirt. The kick flare is my favorite style. Plus, the abovethe-ankle cut makes my legs look longer! 2 Tucked into a sequined skirt, the shirt is ready for a night out. I like how the stripes of the shirt mimic the rows of sequins. 3 The culottes and slides make the top look a little bit pajama-y— which is a big trend this fall. 4 I made this vintage gown feel more casual by tying the shirt around my waist. It also gives shape to a dress with a boxy silhouette. This Month’s Essentials Pantin works a chic puffer, a menswear-inspired shirt, and track pants. 5 On to the track pants! Red pumps and a chic sweater dress them up for…

1. A fashion show. In Cuba. Explain! While airlifting a fashion empire nearly 4,800 miles away from its Paris headquarters is hugely complicated, we’re talking about Karl Lagerfeld here. “He can take a pin and choose anywhere on the map,” says Davison. “Looking at this collection, I could see that Karl was clearly inspired by Havana’s Latin culture, colorful architecture, and people, so it made sense to have an al fresco show on the Paseo del Prado, a main promenade in the city. I started my career at Chanel, so I know firsthand the meticulous detail that goes into everything the company creates. Working there made me realize I wanted to be a fashion editor.” 2. WTF is “cruise,” anyway? It’s the midseason collection, also known as “resort,” which arrives…

The perfect cure for pumpkin spice fatigue? These out-of-the-box recipes from Pinterest queen and Little Bits Of blogger Kelsey Preciado, who created some wildly inventive uses for fall’s fresh harvest. IF YOU LOVE SWEET POTATOES, TRY: Sweet Potato Toast With Avocado Packed with vitamin A, fiber, and antioxidants, sweet potatoes may help reduce cancer risk, and they provide a variety of nutrients that nourish and satisfy, says nutritionist and chef Sara Haas, R.D.N., a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. For this huge-on-Pinterest recipe, Preciado discovered that slices of sweet potato will crisp right up in the toaster—no precooking needed. “And the texture with the avocado is amazing,” she says. 1 large sweet potato 1 avocado Salt to taste Lemon pepper seasoning (in the spice aisle) or fresh…

the summer I turned 21, I dated a musician I’ll call Connor. Well, I thought he was a musician and that we were dating. He thought he was a screenwriter who occasionally played music and that we were “hooking up and not labeling things because labels cause drama.” He was 28 and something of an introvert. I took this to mean that he was deep and artistic and probably judged me for talking as much as I do. Once we broke up, I realized it just meant that he was kind of boring—and probably judged me for talking as much as I do. But before that, I actually had conversations with friends that sounded like this: “Do you think I’m coming across as overeager?” “Maybe? Why don’t you just not…

w hen Andrea Sanchez, 29, scored a big new title at her marketing f irm, she was initially worried about one employee: her friend and former peer Sara Pence, 24. She was used to sharing details about her dating life with Pence; now she was her boss. Pence also had reservations: “I wondered, Can I still tell her if I had a few too many drinks over the weekend?” But now, a few months in, both agree their relationship has prospered. Why? “We keep the lines of communication open and are honest with each other,” says Sanchez. These two make it sound easy, but managing (or reporting to) a friend can be far trickier. Since it happens more and more— research shows that one in three adults meets at least…

Easy Breezy “Whatever I wear has to be comfortable,” says Robson, who plays Craig Cody on TNT’s Animal Kingdom. “I’m into soft oversize sweaters, vintage tees, and leather jackets.” Pair yours with earth-toned pants and boots, and you’re done.
