Pope Leo Dons Throwback-Style Nike Sneakers For a Rome Stroll

Pope Leo Dons Throwback-Style Nike Sneakers For a Rome Stroll

We were all burned by the AI-generated prank images of Pope Francis in a puffer jacket, but this time, the papal street style is real. In a set of photos that’s sweeping the internet, Pope Leo was well and truly seen in a pair of Nike sneakers, paired with his traditional, priestly robes. Pope Leo XIV in 2026 Vatican Pool/Getty Images The suddenly ubiquitous images have been taken from Leone a Roma, a Vatican-produced documentary about the Chicago-born pope’s years in Rome before his ascension to the Catholic church’s highest role, which happened almost a year ago today. The pontiff’s casual footwear choices, therefore, do not appear to be a secret preference: Though the rules imposed by the church in terms of priestly clothing respect tradition and formality, a film planned for distribution on Vatican media channels was certainly scrutinized for any impropriety. That it’s public news that Pope Leo shared a shoe brand with Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and Cristiano Ronaldo is hardly an accident. Source link

Duchess Sophie dons ‘playful’ sheer dress for special occasion

Duchess Sophie never misses in the style stakes. From statement wide-legged trousers to daring animal print, the wife of Prince Edward always looks brilliant, and tonight was no exception. The Duchess of Edinburgh joined King Charles and Queen Camilla for a reception at Windsor Castle to honour carers across the UK, alongside Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his wife, Victoria Starmer. For the emotional event, Duchess Sophie opted to wear a timeless monochrome polka dot dress with sheer sleeves – and it isn’t the first time she’s slipped into the patterned number. © Getty ImagesDuchess Sophie first wore the dress in 2021 Back in 2021, Duchess Sophie wore the Carolina Herrera dress to an event at Hillsborough Castle in honour of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association’s 50th Annual British Isle and Mediterranean Region Conference (BIMR). Back then, she swept her blonde hair into an updo, but for the Windsor Castle reception, the 61-year-old wore her hair loose around her shoulders, adding subtle jewelled earrings and a matching necklace. © Getty ImagesDuchess Sophie’s dress is playful Feeling playful …

Trump foe dons MAGA hat after Maduro raid

Trump foe dons MAGA hat after Maduro raid

Time is a curious construct in Donald Trump’s second term. It’s hard to believe that it was only one month ago that the U.S. staged a military incursion in Venezuela and abducted Nicolás Maduro, the country’s president, and his wife, bringing them back to America to stand trial. At the time, this seemed like a world-altering event. Now it has almost completely disappeared from the news due to all that’s happened — in Minneapolis, in Iran, in Greenland — in the weeks since.  Today, it’s just business as usual in the Trump administration.  On Tuesday the president met with Colombian President Gustavo Petro in the White House, and considering the harsh words exchanged between them over the past year — Petro was a “lunatic” and a “sick man,” Trump said, while Petro accused Trump of being a fascist and “complicit in genocide” — nobody knew what to expect. But Trump signaled all would be well in advance of the meeting, suggesting that his action against Maduro had cowed the Colombian leader, who would now be content to serve …

Margot Robbie Dons Jewelry With Historical Ties to Emperors and Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor with the heart-shaped necklace and Richard Burton. Bettmann Burton and Taylor met on the set of Cleopatra (1963), where they played lovers on-screen, only to end up falling truly in love with each other in real life. Shortly after, they married, then divorced, and then remarried again. For his bride’s 40th birthday in 1972, Burton, aware of Taylor’s passion for jewelry, gifted her a necklace with a heart-shaped diamond in a gold heart-shaped setting embellished with rubies, jade, and diamonds. Elizabeth Taylor on her birthday. WWD/Getty Images It is certainly no coincidence that the jewelry is known as the Cartier Taj Mahal necklace. On the surface of the heart-shaped diamond is engraved a romantic inscription reading “Love is eternal” in Parsi. It also bears the name of Nur Jahan, the original recipient of the jewel, as a gift from her husband, the Mughal emperor Shah Jahangir. According to reports from the auction house Christie’s, where the jewel sold at auction in 2011 for $8.8 million, the Indian ruler had his wife’s name engraved …
