Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, and More Create Branded Cloth Masks to Help Musicians During the Coronavirus

Some of your favorite singers are doing their part to help support the music industry during the COVID-19 crisis. Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, The Weeknd, and Justin Bieber are just some of the A-listers who are teaming up with Bravado, a music merch company, to create branded cloth masks. Like buying a band tee after watching a concert, Bravado started the We've Got You Covered initiative, where the company will be creating merch cotton masks for fans around the world. The best part about this? All proceeds from purchases will be donated to various charities supporting the music industry such as Musicares.

Justin and Billie, who are veteran performers, know how canceling tours and shows can affect the finances of up-and-coming singers. We were excited to learn that 100 percent of proceeds from these branded face masks will go to helping these musicians in their time of need. So if you've wanted to rep your favorite artist while supporting a really great cause, here's your chance. Each reusable cotton mask is $15 and can be bought through We've Got You Covered's website. Keep reading to see the masks and shop them if you're feeling inspired.

I Own 8 Blazers and Keep Wearing This Plaid Boyfriend Blazer on Repeat

When it comes to shopping for blazers, the boyfriend blazer is in a category of its own. Where the traditional blazer is typically used to polish and elevate an outfit, the boyfriend blazer can do so much more. Suiting is huge right now, and if you think about the boyfriend blazer and matching trousers as a modern way to do suiting, you can take that same jacket and wear it with everything else in your closet. When tossed over your favorite white t-shirt, you can look approachable yet buttoned up, and when worn over a band t-shirt, you can instantly give off a more casual vibe. When I spotted Old Navy's Patterned Boyfriend Blazer ($36, originally $50) on sale, I knew I had to try it out. Here are three ways I styled it. And let me tell you, I am in LOVE with it!

Emily Ratajkowski's Sheer Crop-Top Swimsuits Are Going to Sell Out Like That Snaps

Before you assume I'm going to show up on the beach one day in totally see-through attire, I will probably wear my triangle string bikini underneath the new sheer crop tops Emily Ratajkowski just put out for Inamorata. Because yes, these tops can easily be double-layered. And how damn cool are they? Available in a checkered print with a mannequin pattern and Emily's brand name, it seems like these sets will come in two colorways: brown and tan or pink and marigold (my personal preference). Once I get my hands on one, I'll be counting down the days until I can finally wear it.

Emily will also be dropping sheer cover-ups and pants in a '70s-inspired color palette, perfect for throwing on over your suit or when you're spending quality time in bed with your good friend Netflix (I truly think these pieces can double as weekend loungewear). While the supermodel, activist, and designer - who's also offering a mask donation option on her website right now so her team can produce more medical supplies - hasn't promised a drop date yet, we're keeping our eyes and ears open. Scroll through to see all the shots from the new collection Emily is teasing (warning: some are NSFW), and try to imagine just how quickly this stuff is going to sell out when it's live on the site. I'm already waiting in line.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch's Style Is Pure '90s Magic - Here Are 15 Outfits to Prove It

Sabrina the Teenage Witch was one of the biggest shows from the '90s for a reason. The hit ABC series catapulted Melissa Joan Hart, aka Sabrina Spellman, into our lives and hearts. While the show offered up tons of relatable moments with a comedic - and magical - twist, it provided us with a ton of outfit inspiration, too.

I can't tell you the amount of times I looked in the mirror and tried to snap my fingers like Sabrina in hopes of using magical powers to change my outfit on a whim. Sadly, that day never came (shocking, I know), but I know I'm not the only one who was completely envious of Sabrina's ability to switch from one trendy outfit to the next with one flick of her wrist.

If you take a look back, you'll notice that Sabrina's wardrobe was pure '90s gold. In the show, she was seen in some of the decade's biggest trends that are actually back in style in 2020. I'm still not over her outfit when she met Britney Spears; they danced in matching crop tops and high-waisted jeans. Keep reading to see that and 14 of my other favorite looks to see what I'm talking about.

These Iconic Movie Moments Make Me Want to Live in Sweatpants Forever

Right now, I would be living in my sweatpants whether or not we have great movie moments to thank for inspiration. Even if Instagram didn't exist, where you can score hundreds of outfit ideas for your loungewear, and even if retailers weren't putting out adorable, affordable co-ord sets, I'd still be in my sweatpants, because sweatpants are cozy and comfortable. They make staying home for long periods of time feel a little bit more doable. There they are, my sweatpants, peeking out of my drawer like a warm hug waiting for an embrace.

Even though this is what sweatpants mean to me right now, it's nice to look back on their movie history and reminisce about how, at one point, they were used as a tool to help depict someone's character. The Parent Trap immediately comes to mind - the difference between how Hallie and Annie Parker each styled their camp sweats was so telling, Hallie with a headband and Adidas sneakers and Annie with a popped collar. For me, Danny Zuko in his gray tracksuit is somehow the most iconic. He changed out of his signature T-Bird leather jacket to try out for high school sports in this look, all in the name of impressing Sandy. I never knew sweatpants could be so romantic!

But these aren't the only movie moments I'm appreciating right now as I look back on the characters who have really owned this look before me. I have to give them all credit - they are part of the reason I feel stylish in my sweats, after all.
