Meghan Markle Only Just Announced Her Pregnancy, but Her Maternity Style Is Already on Point
On Oct. 12, Kensington Palace officially announced that Meghan Markle is expecting her first child with Prince Harry. While we can't wait to see the duo becoming a family of three, we can't deny that there's one other thing we're pretty damn excited about. The thing in question? Why, all the maternity ensembles the duchess has already been wearing, of course.
When it comes to regal pregnancy style, Meghan is in good company - after all, no one does it better than her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton. Over her three pregnancies, the Duchess of Cambridge has worn a multitude of great outfits and discovered a few brands that, in the next few months, might come in handy for Meghan when it comes to dressing her growing bump.
So far, the Duchess of Sussex has stuck to her go-to, ever-so-stylish ensembles, turning to brands like Givenchy, Jason Wu, and Misha Nonoo. As we patiently wait to see Meghan develop her maternity style even further, read on to see all the outfits she's worn so far - from the dress that started the baby rumors to what she's been wearing on her first royal tour.
Zoë Kravitz's Engagement Ring Is So Huge, You Could Likely Spot It From Outer Space
Leave it to Zoë Kravitz to confirm her engagement in the most casual, nonchalant way. During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the 29-year-old star spilled the beans, admitting that her now-fiancé, Karl Glusman, popped the question this past February. The opposite of casual and nonchalant, however? Her enormous engagement ring, which she's somehow been waltzing around with on her left hand for the past eight or so months without raising any suspicious eyebrows.
Zoé's ring appears to feature an oval-shaped center stone with a band that's covered in smaller (yet still pretty darn large) diamonds. The actress notably wore it to the Met Gala this year, along with a supersexy Saint Laurent gown, and she's been pictured with the ring at a few other public events since getting engaged to her soon-to-be hubby. Considering the fact that her sparkler deserves its own zip code, we're pretty surprised it flew under the radar for so long. Keep reading to zoom ALL the way in on the blinding details of her bling.
Mandy Moore on This Is Us Spoilers, Her Fossil Partnership, and What Kind of Bride She'll Be
Mandy Moore is winning. She stole our hearts as Rebecca on This Is Us, her Emmy's red carpet style made the internet's jaws collectively drop, and her newest role, as a brand ambassador for watch brand Fossil, was just announced.
We talked with Mandy about why she's so thrilled to work with Fossil and to get some sneak previews of her This Is Us wardrobe, learn more about the actress's own bridal style, and discover which '90s trends she's not so in love with. Spoiler alert: tiny sunglasses are going to be a no.
POPSUGAR: Why do you feel that Fossil is such a great fit for you as a brand ambassador?
Mandy Moore: I am really excited to be a part of the Fossil family. I remember Fossil growing up; it's a super iconic brand. But what resonated with me the most is the message, especially this season - the idea of celebrating creativity, authenticity, and optimism. They really just let me be my most authentic, creative self when we were on the set. They wanted to hear my story and what makes me tick, no pun intended. They celebrated my interests and my style; it was such a genuinely meaningful connection right off the bat.
They really just let me be my most authentic, creative self when we were on the set.
PS: Fossil's new mood watch was just released. Do you have any favorite details you love about it?
MM: What I love the most about it is that it's a throwback. I'm a sucker for anything that's '90s, and it makes me happy to see a trend like the mood watch come back. I was actually wearing it this morning at work and we were joking around that you could use it to get in character. We're like, "Let's gauge my mood from the beginning of this process until the end. Let's see if we're able to shift the dynamic a little bit." It was a fun experiment. But I started on green and I ended on green, which is relaxed. So that's a good thing, I think.
PS: Are there any throwback trends you could live without?
MM: I'm not into fanny packs. I'm not into those tiny sunglasses. There's a lot of the '90s trends outside of the mood watch that I'm not going to be participating in. But I applaud people who have the balls to wear bike shorts. Good for them. It's just probably not going to be me.
PS: Congratulations on your engagement to Taylor Goldsmith! What did you think of Rebecca's wedding gown? Is your personal wedding style anything like hers?
MM: I loved her wedding gown. That was a vintage dress that I felt was a nod to a different era, even though it took place in the mid-'70s. I love that about Rebecca. I think it's a little more traditional than I would tend to go for at my wedding. But I don't know. I certainly loved the lace aspect of it. I'm definitely a romantic at heart. So that sort of speaks to me. But I might do something that's a little bit less fussy.
I applaud people who have the balls to wear bike shorts. Good for them. It's just probably not going to be me.
PS: Can you give us any This Is Us spoilers on Rebecca's wardrobe for the upcoming season?
MM: Oh, we're starting an episode. We started it today, actually, and it fits nicely back in the '70s, during the early courting days of Jack and Rebecca. That to me, always signifies the most fun wardrobe and hair and makeup, because she's young and carefree, she's bohemian and is a singer. Rebecca wants to explore that more creative side of herself.
Hala Bahmet, our costume designer, is obsessed with sourcing vintage fabrics and building out really beautiful pieces, like a knit sweater that she patterns off of something from the '40s. In this particular episode, there are a couple of bigger scenes that we've had time to plan for, so she's built two dresses from vintage fabric. It's always the most fun when you have something customized and built for you specifically for a particular scene. It makes you feel that much more special like, "OK, she's put effort into this one."
Make sure to check out Mandy in Fossil's Fall campaign - we've got our eyes on that mood watch.

We Forgot How Good Jennifer Garner's Red Carpet Style Is - Until We Saw These Dresses
The world seemed to stop when Jennifer Garner arrived on the 2018 Oscars red carpet in this rich blue Atelier Versace number. She instantly made our best dressed list, and not just because her color choice was bold but because she carried herself with confidence and looked superbly graceful. "Does she always appear so elegant at events?" we wondered. The answer is yes.
If you backtrack through Jennifer's style history, you'll find that even when she's in a neutral shade, such as black or champagne, Jennifer slips a silk scarf around her shoulders or opts for a delicate bag instead of something fierce. Her expression is always soft, but with a toned body like hers, she strikes a sexy tone when she's in the mood for something formfitting. Ahead, catch a glimpse of some of her finest fashion moments.

There's a Petition to Change the Date of Halloween and a Surprising Number of Parents Are Saying, "Where Do I Sign?"
Is Halloween still Halloween if it's celebrated on Oct. 27 versus Oct. 31? As surprising as it might seem, a growing group of people are pushing to move the Halloween holiday from its long-held position at the very end of October to the last Saturday of the month. And before you cry foul, the reasons do make some sense.
The petition - created by the Halloween & Costume Association three months ago - is called the "Saturday Halloween Movement," and the goal of the organizers is to have it be a full day of celebration rather than "cram it into two rushed evening weekday hours" after school and work.
The goal of the organizers is to have it be a full day of celebration rather than "cram it into two rushed evening weekday hours" after school and work.
The petition then offered up a bulleted list of all the safety concerns that come with the holiday being primarily celebrated with trick-or-treating in the dark evening hours. For instance, the association claims that 70 percent of parents don't accompany kids trick-or-treating and that 82 percent don't put high-visibility aids on their children's costumes.
Although it wasn't directly stated in the official petition, commenters in favor of the movement noted that having it on a weekend is a win for schools, who have to deal with issues surrounding costumes - particularly those with masks and weapons - and for teachers who have to continue to educate especially distracted students.
"Have it always on a Saturday so that we don't have to worry about getting the kids home and in bed early for school the next day," one parent wrote. Another added that it would allow working parents to enjoy Halloween "without all the rushing, taking time off work to spend the evening with their children."
Some added how it's more community-building when held on a weekend: "Let the people get out and enjoy the holiday - more people out, shopping, and spending money is good for the economy!" Still others commented that trick-or-treating is simply more relaxed during daylight hours. As another pointed out: "Now it's 'rush, rush!' and kids barely get to enjoy it."
So far, more than 8,000 people have signed the petition, which has a goal of getting 10,000 signatures. What do you think?

Although not every single one of these babies are necessarily sick - sometimes cats are found without their mama or are having trouble eating - we're beyond thankful that their humans are giving them a much-needed helping hand.

DIY Poo-Pourri: How to Make Your Own Smell-Suppressing Concoction
Gone are the days of air fresheners and lighting a scented candle after you go number two in the bathroom.
Poo-Pourri, aka the world's greatest invention ever, is a spray that one uses before going to the bathroom to mask any unwanted smells that come with pooping because, let's face it, nobody's poop smells like roses (except for maybe Beyoncé, of course).
What makes Poo-Pourri spray different from standard air fresheners is that you spray it directly into the toilet bowl before you go, rather than spraying it into the surrounding air after the fact.
It smells wonderful and it's innovative, but it can be a bit costly. It costs $13 for a two-pack of the 1 oz bottle on Amazon, and for those on a budget (especially if you have a house full of roommates or family members), that can add up.
But have no fear! We have some instructions on how to make your very own Poo-Pourri at home.
Here's What You Need:
- 2 oz spray bottle
- Essential oils
- Rubbing alcohol
- Water

It's getting cooler, and the time to slay all day and then rosé has seemingly slipped away. While you may be sad about the lack of sun, sand, and surf, there is one thing you don't have to be sad about - the selection of wines about to hit your palate.
Through the Fall and into the Winter, it's more than just the weather that changes. Light and cold meals make way for comfort foods and hearty dinners, and baked goods become the center of attention. And let's be real - no one wants to move from under the blanket on the couch after they get home from work on a cold day. So, while you're busy hunkering down, you might as well do it with some wine, right?
We scoped out what wines should be in your wine rack this Fall, from wines that seriously taste like the season itself with tasting notes like black and red berries, spice, clove, cinnamon, coffee, and chocolate to those that are a little lighter and make the perfect complement to all those sweet treats.
I Toured the Hocus Pocus Filming Locations (as a Witch), and Here's What Happened
Watching Hocus Pocus marathons in October is just as much of a tradition as popping bottles of champagne on New Year's Eve. But what isn't tradition - at least for the people I grew up around in Los Angeles - is actually visiting the Hocus Pocus filming locations in Salem, MA.
That changed this year when my boyfriend, Blake, made my childhood dreams come true. He surprised me with a road trip to Salem and gave me enough time to decide if we'd go as ourselves or as a witch and a warlock. I'm an October baby, so of course we were going as the latter. We packed up our Halloween costumes and makeup and headed on a 4.5-hour trip to Salem. Here's what happened next.

These $25 Compression Socks Totally Transformed My Swollen Legs
At the end of almost every day, my feet, ankles, and lower calves feel swollen and tired. For me, it's a genetic issue because everyone in my family has poor circulation. I've been instructed by doctors to make sure I kick back and rest my feet as often as I can, but when I'm running around or working, that's much easier said than done.
I usually experience the most swelling while flying, to the point where I don't dare to take my shoes off mid-flight because I know I won't be able to squeeze my puffy feet back into them. At the urging of my friends, I finally took the plunge and scrambled to purchase this Laite Hebe 7 Pack of Compression Socks ($25). They boast more than 4,300 reviews from passionate customers who saw significant changes in their leg swelling, which compelled me to click and buy.
After my flight, I took the socks off to find that my legs were my normal, nonswollen size. That was a first. Now I'm completely addicted to wearing them at the gym or even just under my jeans and booties to work. You don't have to have a circulation issue to wear these socks either. They're great for exercising in general, to help blood circulation and oxygen flow, and preventing cramping. And if you have a job where you're on your feet all day, these can help give you some relief.
They come in an array of styles and colors, ideal for every day or the gym. Keep scrolling to see all the choices.

Why Disneyland's Haunted Mansion Is Better With The Nightmare Before Christmas Theme
Halloween has officially arrived at Disneyland, and one of the best parts about the park at this time of year is the major transformation of the Haunted Mansion ride into its Nightmare Before Christmas theme. This may be a controversial opinion, but, personally, I love how festive and fun the Haunted Mansion becomes for the Halloween and holiday season, much more than when it's just a standard spooky ride.
It's vibrantly and creatively decorated (seriously, Disney doesn't miss a single detail), puts you in a happy Halloween and holiday mood, and has you humming the catchy songs from The Nightmare Before Christmas for the rest of the day. How could you choose the classic over that? Once you've been on Haunted Mansion holiday, the original ride just feels . . . boring. To prove my point, here are the best things about the themed version!

13 Things You Didn't Know About Witches
The month of October culminating in Halloween is known as the season of the witch.

Meghan Markle's ASOS Maternity Dress Is a Mom-to-Be Staple - and It's Only $56
It hasn't been long since Kensington Palace shared the news of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's first child, but the duchess's maternity style is already royally impressive. During the couple's 16-day tour of the South Pacific, Meghan has opted for a wide array of outfits and accessories, from dreamy high-fashion gowns to pom-pom maxi dresses. As she and Harry landed in Wellington, New Zealand, Meghan walked off the plane in an incredible outfit that's jaw-dropping not only for its look, but for its price point.

The midi length and eye-catching cap sleeves instantly conjured images of Kate Middleton's Preen favorite, which she also owns in red.
