Halle Bailey’s Milk Chocolate "Velvet Nails" Are Peak Fall Vibes

Big Budgets, Fake Drama & Tears: An Oral History Of 'Say Yes to The Dress'

Camila Lincowski’s 2018 episode of Say Yes to the Dress follows her heated battle with her equally headstrong mother, Oniria Correa, while shopping at the storied Kleinfeld Bridal salon. “Who wants to be a basic b*tch in white?” asks Camila. “I want a black wedding dress, so it can match my black little heart.” After a series of burns, threats, and tears, the now-Las Vegas-based real estate agent acquiesces and settles on a $5,300 embroidered mermaid gown by Alessandra Rinaudo — in white.

Although TLC has yet to announce its 23rd season, the show has found a new legion of fans on social media, where the hashtag #isaidyestothedress has 33 million views on TikTok. Celeb cameos abound, including Jersey Shore’s Mike “the Situation” Sorrentino and his also-made-for-TV brothers, stealing the show from sister Melissa in 2015. She’s torn between the crystal-encrusted Pnina Tornai ball gown that dominated early 2010s weddings and her eventual choice: a Mark Zunino drop-waist lace number gown for a cool $8,250. (Her brothers remind Melissa that she may not want to walk down the aisle looking like everyone else in the then-$11,600 dress.)

But what happens when the cameras disappear? Is the experience all it’s cracked up to be? Ahead, Camila and four more SYTTD brides spill the tea (or champagne) on fabricated drama, dress regrets, and what really happened off-screen.

Halle Bailey’s Milk Chocolate "Velvet Nails" Are Peak Fall Vibes

Halle Bailey is quickly becoming the It Girl for mani inspo. During summer, Bailey leaned into her role as The Little Mermaid’s Ariel, opting for mermaid-core manicures, oceanic blue hues, and even clear 3D designs. As soon as temperatures dropped, she painted her long tips in rich shades of chocolate brown and burnt orange, which created a pumpkin spice look. And now, her chocolate nails have a velvety finish.

16 Creative Barbie Makeup Ideas For Halloween 2023 That Are So Glam

The summer of 2023 was basically defined by the highly-anticipated, instant classic Barbie movie. Leading up to the star-studded film and long after its theater release, all things Barbiecore — from hot pink manicures to permanent tattoos that nod to the film — have been at an all time high. With Halloween just around the corner, it makes all the sense in the world that Barbie-inspired costumes are sure to reign.

Julia Fox On The Obsessive Thrill Of Female Friendship

When Julia Fox set out to write her memoir, she knew it was going to be a “masterpiece,” but she had another goal in mind: to offer a portrait of female friendship unlike anything that’s come before. There aren’t many books on the topic, the Down the Drain author tells Bustle, “and they’re usually still written in the male perspective, which is very much like ‘the good [girl] and the bad one.’ Or it veers off into some weird lesbian thing.” The only thing that comes close to reflecting her experience, she says, is Netflix’s tragicomedy, Dead to Me, which centers on two women who become best friends after meeting at a grief support group.

Get Your Home Ready For Fall With The Best Decor From Walmart

As temperatures slowly drop, it's all the more tempting to celebrate the season, and there may be no easier way to do so than by investing in some pretty autumnal home decor. You may have already picked up a pumpkin or two, but a few additional accents can help you to really get into the fall spirit. Thanks to Walmart, it’s easy to snag a throw pillow, candle, or wreath that will turn your place into an autumnal wonderland, without going overboard on your budget. Sure, some might think fall decorations are a little #basic, but this season’s all about embracing the things that make you happy. Who doesn’t love a little bit of festivity, right?

ENTERTAINMENT

Constance Wu Brings Her “Big Feelings” To 'Little Shop Of Horrors'

She plays Audrey opposite High School Musical alumnus Corbin Bleu as Seymour (but no, she’s never seen the Disney movie). And while she’s performed in New York and Los Angeles stage productions before, it’s been a while since she warmed up her vocal pipes. “It was like going to the gym again after 10 years,” she says. Playing Audrey reminds her of her childhood in Richmond, Virginia, when she “had to be very scrappy to survive,” she says. “There’s a reason you've never seen me at a fashion show. I don’t feel excited by fancy things. I feel excited by watching my kids try a strawberry for the first time.”
