Gabrielle Union's See-Through Dress Combined Shimmer and Sheer

Gabrielle Union  may not be an official Bond girl, but after her latest look, it wouldn't be surprising if the  Bring It On  alumnae managed to snag a role in the long-running spy franchise. Over the weekend, she was on hand to celebrate her husband  Dwyane Wade 's Miami Heat statue unveiling. Together, retailers Revolve and FWRD hosted a James Bond-inspired celebration for the occasion and Union arrived looking like the ultimate femme fatale. Union's long, slinky gown featured alternating rows of sheer black material and shimmering bands. It made for a graphic mix of shimmer and shine between swathes of skin. The dress also featured halter neckline and ankle-skimming length. The actress and mother finished the look off with a rhinestone-embellished bag and strappy black heels. Of course, it was a family affair as Union and Wade posed alongside their kids at the event. Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images for FWRD Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images for FWRD The ...

Why Kamala Harris Waited to Meet Doug Emhoff's Kids Cole and Ella


 Vice President Kamala Harris may be the Democratic nominee for president, but her step kids, Cole and Ella Emhoff, know her best as "Mamala." According to her husband Doug Emhoff, it didn't take long for his kids to give her the nickname. In Harris's cover story for Vogue, the second gentleman recalled the first time his wife met his kids, whom he shares with ex-wife Kerstin Emhoff.

“Kamala was very mindful of not meeting the kids until she and I were established as a couple, and it looked like it was going to really go the distance, as she herself was a child of divorce," he explained. When Harris and Emhoff felt like the time was right, the four of them went for a seafood dinner in Malibu. Harris, of course, arrived with cookies in hand, and Doug excused himself from the table to allow them time to get to know one another. “I went to the bathroom and then, you know, kind of waited an extra five or seven minutes under the guise of having a ‘business call,’ so I could let them spend some time together,” he said. “By the time I got back, they were laughing.”

The kids also took Harris to an art night at their school, where they introduced her to their friends. Emhoff said it wasn't long before the four of them were a close-knit bunch: “Pretty soon after that Kamala became Mamala.” 

Now the family has the sweetest, and most relatable, weekly tradition: Sunday family dinner. Even in the midst of the madness of the 2024 election campaign, the family makes sure to prioritize their time together. The nights involve Doug watching football and Harris playing music (Beyoncé and Bob Marley) while cooking her “world-famous roast chicken" or "world-famous Bolognese.”

“It’s just the family there,” she said. “That’s my very happy place.”

Michelle Obama Put a Fierce Twist on the Pantsuit in Head-to-Toe Animal Print

  With just 9 days left until the 2024 Presidential Election,   Michelle Obama   is ready for a fight—at least, judging by her latest look on the campaign trail. On Saturday, the former First Lady attended a rally in support of the Democratic nominee,   Vice President Kamala Harris , in the swing state of Michigan while seemingly sending the opposing party a subliminal message with her outfit.  Looking fierce in a black and brown leopard print pantsuit from Theory, Obama wore a single-breasted blazer with sharp shoulders and coordinating slim-fit trousers. She layered a black top underneath and accessorized with a pair of black round-toe pumps. Obama continued the symbolism with touches of blue (the color of the Democratic Party)—including a set of blue stones that embellished her gold hoop earrings and a bold blue manicure.  Getty Her hair was worn in braids and pulled back into a low-slung ponytail, and she finished off her glam with a nude glossy lip and...
