Prince Harry and Meghan Mental Health Awareness Month -Visit Local Youth Group

While headlines are swirling about our favorite royals enjoying sushi with A-listers, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cameron Diaz. It is important to make sure enough of the spotlight is shown brightly on all of the upbuildings; as well as the positive actions that the Sussexes are making.

Best-Dressed at the NBA Draft

The fact that the NBA draft occurred smack in the middle of the Paris men’s wear shows was something of a cosmically appropriate coincidence. After all, the draft has increasingly become one of our most watched runways, the heart of the convergence between fashion and sport that has spawned the tunnel walk and social media accounts that chronicle players’ wardrobes — and leads to front row seats at shows like Louis Vuitton, recently attended by LeBron James, and Rick Owens, where Kyle Kuzma showed up. And it is only getting more important. ESPN has added a one-hour “NBA Draft Red Carpet Special” just as E! does for the Oscars and the Met Gala, including a 360 degree cam kind of like the E!
