Bella Hadid debuts new bangs in skin-tight double denim look

Bella Hadid reaffirmed that the Y2K revival isn’t going anywhere, as she fully embraced her Hannah Montana–inspired sartorial fantasy while in Milan this week. On February 27, for her new collaboration with Miss Sixty, the supermodel rocked up to the flagship store with a bold new hairstyle reminiscent of the country pop star. The 29-year-old debuted a full set of blunt bangs in a fresh, blonde-highlighted hue, styled in soft cascading waves. The hairstyle was teamed with an equally Hannah-coded ensemble. Bella rocked a light-wash, zip-up denim jacket with a pair of skin-tight flared jeans adorned with leopard print star patches. The double-denim outfit was layered over a simple white roll neck shirt and accessorized with silver-rimmed Bru sunglasses with a red lens, and a pair of Anonymous Copenhagen’s burgundy stiletto pumps. Bella unveiled her first design collaboration with Italy denim-driven label Miss Sixty, following three years as the face of the brand’s campaigns.

Nostalgic ‘popstar bangs’ are trending again – here’s how to style them now

Nostalgic ‘popstar bangs’ are trending again – here’s how to style them now

Miley Cyrus set social media alight earlier this month when she announced she’s set to reprise her iconic role as Hannah Montana for the 20 year anniversary of the show, slipping back into the trademark wig she wore to play the fictional popstar. From 1980s-inspired rock chick for her 2020 Plastic Hearts album, to emo icon during her ‘Can’t Be Tamed’ era to her infamous bleached pixie cut, 33-year-old Miley has tried it all in the hair department – but nothing can top the heavy bangs she wore as Hannah Montana, and her reprise of the role that kickstarted her career signifies the return of the popstar bang. On the enduring popularity of Hannah Montana’s heavy, face-framing fringe, celebrity hair stylist Adam Reed comments: “That full, heavy fringe paired with long, glossy lengths was pure pop fantasy; it framed the eyes dramatically and instantly transformed Miley into ‘Hannah’. It’s unapologetically theatrical, and it wasn’t just hair, it was character creation.” © WireImageThe structure of the Hannah Montana fringe is what makes it unique Fellow hairdressing legend …

The Big Bang’s final and most difficult prediction: confirmed

The Big Bang’s final and most difficult prediction: confirmed

The idea of the Big Bang has captivated the imagination of humanity since it was first proposed nearly a full 100 years ago. Since the Universe is expanding today (as observations have indicated since the 1920s), then we can extrapolate back, earlier and earlier, to when it was smaller, younger, denser, and hotter. You could go back as far as you can imagine: before humans, before the stars, before there were even neutral atoms. At the earliest times of all, you’d make all the particles and antiparticles possible, including the fundamental ones that we cannot create at our low energies today. As time went forward, the Universe would cool, expand, and gravitate all together. First atomic nuclei would form from protons and neutrons, then neutral atoms would form, and then gravitation would lead to stars, galaxies, and the grand structures of the cosmic web. These leftover relics — the light elements formed in the Big Bang, the relic photons from the primordial plasma, and the large-scale structure of the Universe — would, along with the …

Cool Guys Have Boy Bangs Now

Cool Guys Have Boy Bangs Now

For the past decade, men’s hair was the domain of skin fades, hard parts, and gravity-defying coifs. Call it the millennial boy-band ‘do, or the retired soccer player’s day-old fade—you know the look. Respectable. Kempt. Slightly high-maintenance. (Perhaps with subtle lowlights.) “For so many of those years, everyone wanted to look like David Beckham,” says Mark Alan Esparza, a New York–based hairstylist. “Shaved on the sides, long on top.” But men aren’t looking so manicured these days. They’re working out in jeans, protein-maxxing by way of all-meat diets, and overall leaning into a more unvarnished kind of guyishness. Alongside the resurgence of homegrown ’90s aesthetics—dirtbag caps, crispy selvedge denim, busted unbranded kicks—hair has followed suit. Today’s styles run the gamut, from snippy bowl cuts to manosphere shags, but they share one inescapable detail: boyish, face-framing bangs New York musician The Dare has rocked a bed-headed, baby mop top for years. Now the wave of indie rockers rising around him (Jackson Walker Lewis of Fcukers and the grungy duo, The Hellp) has adopted the look, albeit …

Germany’s far right bangs at the gates to get into the Munich Security Conference – POLITICO

Germany’s far right bangs at the gates to get into the Munich Security Conference – POLITICO

But since that time, the AfD has come under the increasing scrutiny of national and state domestic intelligence agencies tasked with monitoring groups deemed anti-constitutional, culminating last year in the party’s federal classification as a right-wing extremist organization. Ischinger’s successor, career diplomat Christoph Heusgen, refused to invite AfD leaders for the past three conferences, arguing that a party deemed at that point to have been at least partly right-wing extremist by intelligence authorities had no place at the event. After all, he argued, the conference was founded after World War II by Ewald von Kleist, one of the aristocratic Wehrmacht officers now revered in Germany for having partaken in the failed 1944 plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler. “I can well imagine that Ewald von Kleist would have supported my decision against the AfD,” Heusgen told German newspaper Tagesspiegel.
