No Remorse

Hand-painted snakeskin bag, $3,250; at Bottega Veneta, 212-371-5511.

“It’s pretty great right now. I’ve finally gotten to an age when I’m not afraid to have an opinion,” says Reese Witherspoon to interviewer and acclaimed author Fannie Flagg. “I feel that my perspective matters. It took me a while to figure that out, but I’m there now.” The open conversation between these two incredibly accomplished Southern women is the printed equivalent of a strong gust of spring air. Relish the candid cool and frank freshness. They may have only just met when we set them up for our cover story, but their shared framework and common values had them chatting like fast friends from minute one. So fun. Listen in on p. 289. Also not afraid to share their opinions with us—and you—are the 133 experts in hair, makeup, nails, and skin care with whom we’ve consulted to bring you this year’s 20th-annual roundup of the country’s Best Beauty Buys (p. 225). It’s no wonder this feature continues to rank as one of our most popular, no matter what. It provides honest advice on stuff we love to use every day. Countless surveys and follow-up interviews: That’s what we rely on to offer you the trustworthy perspective on products in all categories so you can shop with confidence. Isn’t that beautiful?

Behind the Scenes

THE INSPIRATION

THE INTERVIEW

Butter London Nail Lacquer in Marrow, $15; butterlondon.com.

Senior editor Sharon Clott Kanter caught up with Peltz at the Peninsula Beverly Hills Spa for pedicures and girl talk. The hot topics? Work, family, and Peltz’s pups, Lola and Toto. While the actress opted for bare nails, she helped Clott Kanter pick out this rich purple shade.

Fashion director Melissa Rubini mixed and matched nine looks for Peltz showing the sleek staples of the Me Decade: buttery-soft suede, high-waist short suits, and ﬂared trousers (Peltz’s fave) with a bold graphic print.

THE SET Mirroring the retro inspiration of the shoot, Peltz posed on the grounds of a Brentwood, Calif., midcentury-modern home designed by renowned architect A. Quincy Jones. The warm SoCal sun provided a soft, natural light for MuellerRuchholtz’s shots.

FENDI

Though 20-year-old Bates Motel actress Nicola Peltz wasn’t around to witness the chic nonchalance of the actual ’70s ﬁrsthand, she was up for evoking a sophisticated vibe for our story “Some Like It Cool” (p. 302). “Actors bring that extra something to a shoot that models can’t,” says photographer Joachim MuellerRuchholtz. “Nicola was great at getting the perfect shot.”

THE HAIR The secret to undone, I-woke-up-like-this strands? A one-two product punch. Hairstylist Leonardo Manetti blow-dried the star’s locks using a thickening spray and pinned them up to create bend. After they cooled, he worked in a sea-salt spray with his ﬁngers for texture.

WHO Reese Witherspoon WHERE The back lot of Universal Studios in Universal City, Calif., where such blockbusters as The Amazing Spider-Man and The Sting were shot WHAT WENT DOWN The Hot Pursuit star, who arrived in a pink crewneck sweater, a Red Valentino button-down, and J Brand skinny jeans, felt right at home on our re-created movie set, laughing with extras and dancing to BeyoncĂŠâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love on Top.â&#x20AC;? TOTALLY UNSCRIPTED â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is something beautiful about those coďŹ&#x20AC;ee breaks and moments on a set when an actor doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to act,â&#x20AC;? says photographer Giampaolo Sgura of his inspiration.

A NOVEL IDEA As manicurist Amy Ruiz painted Witherspoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tips a pretty pink shade, the actress, who often touts her #bookclub picks on Instagram, chatted about her current obsession, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, by Rebecca Skloot.

IF THE SHOE FITS . .. Witherspoon brought her own covetable accessories to the shoot (houndstooth Dior pumps, a classic Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane duďŹ&#x20AC;el), but these faux-pearl-adorned sandals she posed in quickly became a fave.

So has success changed her? Not a chance. Says longtime makeup artist Molly R. Stern, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Reese truly enjoys what she does. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always fun to be around her.â&#x20AC;? We had 100-plus pairs of shoes on hand for the star.

FANNIE FLAGG COVER-STORY

WRITER “Southerners are naturally drawn to each other,” says Flagg. The Alabama native, former fixture on Match Game, and author of the popular novel Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe interviewed fellow Southern belle Reese Witherspoon on set in Los Angeles for “Go Reese Lighting!” (p. 289). “We have the same manners and way of living,” says Flagg. On her foray into writing “I wrote my first novel, Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man, on the set of Match Game.” Favorite Witherspoon film “Election. I was so impressed with Reese’s talent at such a young age.”

SUSAN SPUNGEN FOOD STYLIST “Desserts are inherently beautiful,” says Spungen, who gussied up seven dishes for our entertaining story, “P.S. I Love You” (p. 317). “You just have to show them off to their best advantage.” Thoughts on the word “foodie” “It’s not my favorite. I prefer to consider myself a food enthusiast.” How she got her start “After working as a chef at a few restaurants, I took a job as the first food editor of Martha Stewart Living.” Most important lesson learned from Martha Stewart “Always make the food appear as appetizing as possible.” Most difficult dish to photograph “Melted cheese. Hands down.”

“Scott is a nice guy, but his poses carry a lot of heavy emotion,” says Mueller-Ruchholtz.

JOACHIM MUELLERRUCHHOLTZ PHOTOGRAPHER The German photographer shot not one but two features in this issue: Scandal star Scott Foley for this month’s Man of Style profile (p. 126) and Bates Motel actress Nicola Peltz for “Some Like It Cool” (p. 302). How he got into photography “I used to draw a lot, and I would always do it super realistically. In college, one of my professors suggested I take pictures instead. I haven’t drawn again since.” Creative influences “Joseph Beuys, Andreas Gursky, and Thomas Ruff.” On-set playlist “Björk, although she can sometimes take you to strange places when you shoot.”

STAFF SPOTLIGHT

EJ BRIONES EDITORIAL ASSISTANT, FASHION DEPARTMENT Background “When I was a kid, I wanted to be a priest,” says Briones, who traded cassocks for couture after taking a costume-design class as an undergrad at Holy Cross. “The rest is history.” First fashion internship “Working in the fashion closet at More magazine.”

Describe your job “I assist fashion news director Eric Wilson and the fashion department. My market consists of hats, belts, scarves, gloves, ﬁne jewelry, and menswear.” Favorite InStyle moment “Traveling to Positano [inset] for our fashion feature with Shailene Woodley and Theo James [March 2014]. We had a beautiful house overlooking the cliﬀs, and the views were incredible.”

SHE TAKES THE CAKE Jennifer Aniston is always authentic, especially when it comes to her sartorial choices. It was refreshing to see her wear a range of pared-down neutrals for February’s cover story, “How Sweet It Is.” Balancing casual with class, she exudes elegance and sophistication. Reading her interview, I could tell that she knows who she is and makes no apologies. Her performance in Cake is further evidence of her talent. —ASHLEY JANAY THOMAS, Richmond, Va.

WOMAN IN CHARGE I so admire Jessica Chastain for being brave enough to discuss her biggest fears in public.

“InStyle kept me company on a tour of the 2,000-yearold Banaue Rice Terraces.”

I was dismayed that you listed red palm oil as a health food in “31 Days to the Best You Ever!” [January]. The increasing demand for palm oil is currently destroying rainforests in Asia and is largely responsible for the fact that orangutans and Sumatran tigers are nearing extinction. Please do research before you promote the latest healthfood fad. The survival of some of humanity’s closest relatives depends on it.

Inspired by InStyle Readers show us how our pages have motivated them to try something new

“My lips and nails add extra pops of pink to the palette.”

Freidy Goldberger Brooklyn WHAT I DID I was stumped by what to wear to my friend’s engagement party. This figureflattering H&M skirt featured in March’s “Run the World (Girls)” gave me the confidence I needed to work the crowd.

—MCKENNA TRAHAN

Charmaine Daudu Atlanta WHAT I DID I’m accustomed to bold pants, but the ﬁerce skirts in December’s “Breaking the Pattern” prompted me to swap out the usual for something new and diﬀerent. This Express skirt is a great anchor for a multitude of mixed tribal prints.

InStyle / MAY 2015

McKenna Trahan New Orleans

WHAT I DID My closet is full of polka dots and stripes, but February’s

You Can Do: Black & White Grid inspired me to incorporate this modern grid pattern into my wardrobe. The black-and-white combo is the perfect backdrop for a colorful statement piece, like this hot-pink Charming Charlie necklace.

Naturally Beautiful Results

What’s my advice for healthy-looking, radiant skin? A positive attitude and Aveeno. ®

AVEENO POSITIVELY RADIANT SPF 15 face moisturizer helps reduce the look of brown spots and uneven tone in just 4 weeks. Its clinically proven ACTIVE NATURALS formula has soy, one of nature’s most effective skin tone correctors. What a bright idea. ®

WorldMags.net “The touch of blue from my necklace adds contrast.”

Marisa Zerby

State College, Penn. WHAT I DID I initially balked at the leopard trend, but after reading March’s “Animal Magnetism” [The Look], I decided to start oﬀ with a “quiet purr” and wear my blue Boden sweater layered under a denim moto jacket. Now that I think of the print as a neutral, it’s not nearly as intimidating.

—MELISSA WARD

Melissa Ward Sarasota, Fla.

WHAT I DID Orange is tough

to pull oﬀ, but it’s deﬁnitely the right hue if you’re trying to stand out. “Say It with Color” [April 2014] taught me that its warm base can be a beautiful complement for darker skin tones. Not only does this particular shade make my skin glow, but it also screams springtime!

Emily Ehardt Chicago WHAT I DID I’ve been trying to ﬁnd a replacement for my go-to blazer, and February’s Find Your Perfect: Bomber Jacket introduced me to this edgy substitute for spring. I love how the bright coral zipper brings a ﬂirty feel to the traditionally masculine cut. It’s a little more unexpected.

Natalie Ragusin Chicago WHAT I DID There seems to be a new It lip color every season, but February’s “Red My Lips” assured me that ﬁreengine red is always a fail-safe pick. I paired my MAC lipstick in Chili with an equally dramatic winged eyeliner and kept the rest of my look natural. My rich matte pucker is deﬁnitely the focal point.

Pro tip: Top with a matching lip liner for long-lasting wear.

EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK

It’s a WRAP Australia-based designer Collette Dinnigan, a fave of Nicole Kidman’s and Duchess Kate’s, brings her bold looks to Anthropologie this month for a glamorous collaboration that channels the ’50s: “an era,” she says, “when you picked up souvenir scarves everywhere you traveled.” Fittingly, Dinnigan’s own vacays helped her conjure up the colorful scenes that dance across the foulard-inspired designs. The pink ﬂamingos dotting the scarf-tie baby-doll style at left “remind me why I fell in love with Turks & Caicos,” she says, while Paris’s street-music festival, the Fête de la Musique, comes to life on the cape-sleeve pullover at right. “It’s like wearing a piece of a holiday you don’t even have to go on.” —JENNIFER FERRISE Silk twill dresses, Collette Dinnigan x Anthropologie, $198 (left) and $228; anthropologie.com.

BURNING QUESTION

Inspired by Pitch Perfect 2, we asked: What is your go-to karaoke song? The Barden Bellas belt out Beyoncé’s anthem “Run the World (Girls)” in the musical follow-up.

“Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ is a crowdpleaser.” —MILEY CYRUS

ACA-AWESOME

“ ‘Respect’ by Aretha Franklin. It’s a classic.”

The Pitch Perfect sequel (out May 15) is a campier, funnier version of the ﬁrst, with even more Rebel-isms. Here are ﬁve reasons to love it.

—HALLE BERRY

There are new Bellas in town, including Hailee Steinfeld, whose on-screen mom is Sons of Anarchy’s Katey Sagal.

“Prince’s ‘Kiss’ because it’s so sexy.”

The Riff Off is massive. So epic, it took five days to shoot, says Chrissie Fit, who plays Flo, a new Bella.

“Bob Seger’s ‘Old Time Rock and Roll’ rocks.”

“I really like ‘Alone’ by Heart.”

—MILES TELLER

—AMY ADAMS

—CHARLI XCX

“ ‘I Touch Myself ’ by Divinyls. I can hit all the notes.” —ZOË SALDANA

YOU SHOW, GIRL!

The costumes are as brilliant as The Mindy Project’s are. That’s because they have the same costume designer, Salvador Perez. In this movie Elizabeth Banks not only stars as the quirky commentator of the ICCAs but also makes her directorial début. #girlboss It took a team of 13 hairstylists in three trailers to create the looks. “We had to use a lot of extensions because we ﬁlmed in the hot Louisiana heat,” says Cheryl Marks, who led the on-set hair department.

Starting May 6, Mariah Carey embarks on an 18-date residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The set includes 18 of her No. 1 hits. Expect the Vision of Love to melisma her way through a five-octave range with classics like “Fantasy,” “Hero,” and “Touch My Body.” “My songs are the soundtrack of my life,” says the singer. Well, ours too. For ticket info, visit thecolosseum.com.

DRESS YOUR AGE ...

The Iris Apfel Way

She has been described as the most stylish 93-year-old on the planet and an inspiration to adventurous dressers of all ages. But Iris Apfel, the star of the new Albert Maysles documentary, Iris, out on April 29, still doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand what all the fuss is about. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;ERIC WILSON Q In the ďŹ lm you cite a sense of humor and curiosity as the most important elements of life. Why so? Those are the two great gifts I received in the cradle. I ďŹ nd them sadly lacking in this world. A sense of humor is the secret to everythingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a good relationship, a good marriage, a good digestion. Curiosity, to me, is paramount. Young people have completely confused curiosity with pushing a button. Curiosity requires involving yourself. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get much more out of the answer. Q How would you describe your style? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to describe it because I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what it is. I have no formulas. If it feels good in the pit of my tummy, then I know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right. Q What is it like to be called a style icon? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better to work. There are very few people with really original style today, since so many people get styled. REMEMBERING ALBERT MAYSLES The iconic documentarian with more than ďŹ ve decades of ďŹ lms, like Grey Gardens, died in March.

Q Do you feel diďŹ&#x20AC;erent when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all dressed up? I feel better. Sometimes I look in the mirror and I say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yuck!â&#x20AC;? But when I get it right, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like wearing a suit of armor. Q What motivates you to continue to make an eďŹ&#x20AC;ort in getting dressed? I try to get older people out of their seats and let them know they still have a life. Q Do you have any fashion donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ts? Do not slavishly follow trends. They look silly. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to know who you are. I always say if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to wear something just to be in fashion and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re uptight about it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better just to be out of style. Q Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the secret to a happy life? Live fully. Experience everything you can. It is important to love and be loved, to share, to learn, and then to impart any wisdom you can to others. Be charitable. It sounds corny, but nothing is so corny as the truth. Nobody uses corny anymore, do they? Shame. It was a good word.

CLEANUPACT

Just as fearless in her advocacy as she is in her roles, Patricia Arquette, the Oscar-winning actress and star of the new CSI: Cyber, co-founded GiveLove to help supply Haitians with lifesaving sanitation

hen Patricia Arquette won an Oscar in February for her supporting role in Boyhood, her acceptance speech went viral thanks to her rousing call for women’s wage equality. But the speech was also notable for a phrase never uttered before on the Academy Awards stage: “ecological sanitation.” It’s a cause the 47-year-old mother of two feels deeply about, so in 2010, after the devastating earthquake in Haiti, Arquette founded the nongovernmental organization GiveLove with friend Rosetta Getty. Their goal? To bring smallscale, decentralized composting projects to the country to prevent waterborne diseases like cholera from spreading. “These types of illnesses kill more kids worldwide than AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined,” Arquette says. “And the number-one water pollutant is sewage.” Why sanitation? It’s not necessarily a cause many people are passionate about. Frustratingly, it’s not. But when you have communities telling you what is really important to them, you can’t turn away from that. Sanitation is absolutely critical. Besides contracting cholera, a lot of children in Haiti end up Arquette with students at getting parasites the AMURT School in Port-au-Prince, where because of untreated GiveLove launched its ﬁrst sewage in the water Green School Project or on the ground

around them. Parasites are a cofactor of malnutrition, absorbing the nutrients from what little food these kids get. How often do you travel to Haiti? I’ve been probably 14 times since 2010. But right now it’s not in the program’s best interest for me to be on-site. It draws a lot of unwanted attention and can be a security risk for the staﬀ down there. Sometimes, when you have a great team, the less you’re personally on the ground, the better. How does being a mother inform your work there? I see those babies, and I want a better life for them, like I would for my own kids. We take for granted that we can go to the bathroom and wash our hands and we’re not going to get sick and die. That’s not the case in much of the world. I talk to my daughter, Harlow, about the reality of other children’s lives. She’s really proud of me, even though she won’t say it. One day, while I was cleaning out some of her old schoolwork, I found a piece of paper. She had written, “When I grow up, I want to help people like my mom does.” What’s next for GiveLove? We are considering an expansion into Nicaragua, and we’re creating an online tutorial about sanitation. Globally, more people have access to cell phones than they do to toilets.

BY THE NUMBERS

It costs $25 to provide one Haitian home with a toilet. Here’s why it’s so vital.

Saturday Night Live’s 40th Anniversary Official After-Party AT THE PLAZA BALLROOM IN NEW YORK CITY THE VIBE Live from New York, on a Saturday night (or Sunday morning), almost 1,000 guests crowded into a ballroom at the Plaza Hotel to celebrate 40 years of Lorne Michaels’s iconoclastic show. “It’s a night of crazy mashups,” said Sasheer Zamata. “I just saw Will Ferrell talking to Ariana Grande.” By 1 a.m., Miley Cyrus was singing Blondie’s “The Tide Is High” with Debbie Harry herself. Later, Prince performed “Let’s Go Crazy” with Maya Rudolph on backup vocals and Bill Murray nonchalantly playing tambourine and dancing until the wee hours.

The trendy trio—RIHANNA, in an Ashish jacket, JAY Z, and BEYONCÉ, in a Scooter LaForge trench—arrived after catching the NBA All-Star game across town at Madison Square Garden.

“Jay Z said, ‘ What up, fake Jay Z?’ to me and laughed. Beyoncé gave me a hug, but she said she didn’t want to talk for fear of being impersonated.” —JAY PHAROAH

The VIPs swapped stories about their Chanel outﬁts over a three-course meal, and Aussie actress Bella Heathcote hoped to leave with new friends. “A few expletives seem to break the ice,” she said. “I ﬁnd myself swearing and becoming a way more Australian version of myself at these events.” —CARITA RIZZO

Fendi’s 3Baguette Art Collection Preview AT ONE57 IN NEW YORK CITY THE BUZZ Fendi creative director Karl Lagerfeld cohosted the buzziest soirée of New York Fashion Week when he held a dinner on the 83rd floor of the city’s ultraswanky new skyscraper One57 for the opening of the label’s incredible Madison Avenue flagship store. Classic 3Baguette bags personalized in honor of the event by Sarah Jessica Parker and Rihanna were on display and later auctioned off for charity. “It took a lot of crude drawing on napkins at restaurants,” said Parker of her ultimate design. —CLAIRE STERN “I don’t plan or arrange my playlist. I just feel the vibes of the room.” —ERYKAH BADU in Fendi

“This is just a wonderful opportunity to give back.” —RIHANNA, in Fendi, with KARL LAGERFELD

“Surprisingly, I don’t really shop. I’m not a big consumer.” —SARAH JESSICA PARKER in Fendi

“Shopping for summer in hopes of warm weather.” —PETRA NEMCOVA in Fendi

SJP designed this bag! She chose to donate proﬁts to the Brain Trauma Foundation.

RIHANNA BREAKS INTO THE VAULT

“I wear these bags all the time. They’re my favorite.” —NAOMI CAMPBELL in Fendi

Rihanna sourced a piece of Fendi’s history for her look. The bronze-painted pierced-peccaryskin dress and pink mink coat came straight from the label’s archives in Rome. Lagerfeld originally sketched and produced the gown in 1992; the topper followed seven years later.

A parade of gorgeous white gowns, in particular, stole the show, each one as unique as a snowflake. And the jaw-dropping redcarpet moments kept coming, setting off a perfect, and very glamorous, storm. BY ERIC WILSON

BEST DRESS

LUPITA NYONG’O in Calvin Klein Collection

This dress will forever be remembered both for its opulent impact—it’s covered almost entirely with 6,000 gleaming white crystal pearls— and because it was later stolen from the star’s hotel room. The thief eventually returned the gown after discovering that, duh, the pearls weren’t real.

Nominee Robert Duvall ducked out of the Oscars early, arriving just in time to catch Lady Gaga’s performance, and Sarah Hyland fangirled over Eddie Redmayne’s win. “He’s just the nuggetiest nugget of all the nuggets in nuggetland,” she said. Post-show, the dance floor pulsed with Nile Rodgers onstage. But the ultimate finale? The night raised $5.8 million for the cause. —CARITA RIZZO

STUART VEVERS ON THE RECORD

“Coach has a lightheartedness that’s really important,” says Stuart Vevers. In each of his ﬁrst three ready-to-wear collections, the designer has added a humorous element in the form of the season’s must-have sweater (not surprisingly, they’ve been popular among the fashioneditor set). “I don’t know if anyone is looking for basics from Coach,” he says. “We’ve got to have something that stands out.”

With three seasons under his Coach belt, the designer who made It bags happen for European luxury houses is bringing his magic to New York.

“A lot of these references play with Americana by twisting them into something new.”

“I loved that it had a weird backstory,” Vevers says of The Shining’s Danny Torrance–inspired sweater, which sold out in Coach stores around the world. “It was also a nod to a moment in time that was so identiﬁably American in its optimism.”

California artist Gary Baseman created eerie creatures, like a blindfolded bunny, for bags and sportswear. “I want to push things further so people will think, I can get that only from Coach,” Vevers says.

“The fall color palette came from looking at Joel Sternfeld images of train tracks, essentially made black and white by the snow,” he says. “I ﬁnd snow very romantic. Everything goes quiet and looks so beautiful.”

Q What about this job appealed to you? A It was quite different from the work I had done before. Apart from working at Mulberry, which has slightly more reasonable prices, I had spent my whole career in high-end luxury. And American style is so influential to me. I guess there’s something personal in what I feel about fashion and the way people are shopping today, which has changed so dramatically. Q How so? A It’s much less about investment. It’s more about items and a magpie approach. The way we put our collection together now is about believing in the elements of a look, not an army of a single silhouette. It’s much more about eye candy. It just feels like a good moment for fashion seasonality, and having a bit of fun. Q Congrats on your recent nuptials. [Vevers married designer and illustrator Benjamin Seidler in December.] Did that influence your change of address? A I’m not saying it was insignificant. I had been with Ben for six years, and we had never lived in the same city. This was that opportunity. Q So you’ve lived in London for Mulberry, Madrid for Loewe, Paris for Louis Vuitton, Milan for Bottega Veneta, and now you’re back in New York. Does the city really affect the personality of a brand? A Absolutely. This business is about differentiation, and the origins of brands are fundamental. So much of the Coach collection has been inspired by

the way a New York woman puts her wardrobe together, because I see her every day. European luxury is about striving for perfection. At Coach, nothing is perfect. Sometimes it’s about playing up imperfections, being able to see leather is real leather, to the point of making it look like the pieces have lived a life before. It’s not too precious.

Q Your spring collection was set along Route 66. Have you ever been on it? A It’s hard to remember exactly where I’ve been, because I can’t drive. That’s part of the reason why I travel the country by train. Q Fashion is very much a tool of communication. If you wear Coach, what are you telling the world? A I’ve always thought it was a cool brand. Coach has been part of the inspiration archives at every brand I’ve worked at. The things Coach stands for should be New York City; authentic; heritage; great, honest materials—they all point to a cool factor that I wanted to play up.

COAST to COACH

Vevers says his notion of American fashion emerged from watching Hollywood ﬁlms as a child. As an adult, he spent his summer vacations touring the country by Amtrak, picking up clues along the way that would eventually inform his designs for Coach.

“I have a certain nostalgia for the aesthetic of biker culture,” he says, noting the look of the 1969 road classic starring Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper.

“Shelley Duvall is such a mignon, very angular and reﬁned. But her silhouette is just these layers and layers of clothes. She was an inspiration for making such a statement with outerwear.”

Q How would you describe yourself? A I’m down-to-earth; I strive to remain down-to-earth. I’m quite fun. I like work to be fun. Q Who do you think is cool? A Kristen Stewart. Patricia Arquette. Wynona Ryder. Chloë Sevigny [right]. She’s got good swagger. Q What’s the best part of your job? A Every day is diﬀerent. The ultimate moment for me is when you’ve designed a new collection and the boxes of the product arrive, or the samples get ﬁnished in the workshops. It’s so exciting, especially if you think it looks good. Q What’s the secret to simplicity? A Not trying too hard, not overthinking things. Just being instinctive.

n a sunny afternoon at the Urth Caffé in Beverly Hills, Scott Foley assesses a pistachio croissant in front of him as though it might hold the secret to the universe. He breaks it open carefully and takes a bite. “I’m so happy to be eating a croissant without anyone stealing it from me,” he says. The square-jawed 42-year-old just came from the set of Shonda Rhimes’s massively popular thriller–soap opera Scandal, in which his character, the gallant if long-suffering former military officer Jake Ballard, has been stuck in a love triangle with President Fitzgerald “Fitz” Grant (Tony Goldwyn) and Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington). But if life on Scandal is chaotic, there are even fewer opportunities to eat a quiet pastry at home: He and his wife, actress Marika Dominczyk, had their third child, a boy, in November. Between late nights on the Scandal set and early mornings waking up with the kids, Foley has been operating on less sleep than even Jake Ballard is used to. But you wouldn’t know it to look at the actor, who’s still as fresh-faced as when he played ideal-boyfriend material Noel on Felicity 13 years ago. Today he’s wearing what he admits is a typical Scott Foley outfit: a long-sleeve Theory baseball T-shirt, Rag & Bone corduroys, and high-top Vans. “I’m in jeans and a Tshirt all day long. You find what works, and you stick with it,” he says. So you have a 6-month-old son, a 5½-year-old daughter, and a 3-year-old son. How’s home life these days? My wife always wanted three kids—be careful what you wish for. We had a couple moments in the first 12 weeks when we said, “Why did we do this? We were fine with two!” This baby is beautiful and healthy and smiling, but home life is crazy. I finished Scandal at almost 2 o’clock in the morning last night; I got home at 2:30; my 3-year-old was in my bed at 5:30 this morning. So I’m wrecked. All the time. It’s a lot. Actors in general are fairly selfish people: It has to be all about you, finding the character and making it work. But there’s nothing like that anymore. The kids are up, so I gotta get up, I gotta make them breakfast. OK, what do you want? OK, you want a water, you want more milk? OK, more this, that. OK, we gotta go get dressed.

We gotta brush your teeth, your hair, everything, and you get them ready, and you get them in the car, and then they forgot something. And you don’t think twice about it. There’s no anger. It is the way it is. You lose yourself. And it’s great. Your wife, Marika, is an actress, and your wife’s sister [Dagmara Dominczyk] is also an actress, and she’s married to actor Patrick Wilson. Your family vacations must be like mini drama camps. It’s everything you would imagine. I imagine it’s just a lot of karaoke. Yes. And board games. What’s your go-to karaoke song? There are many. I mean, I like to start out slow. Maybe some Harry Chapin, like “Cat’s in the Cradle.” And then I’ll go country. I’ll sing some Dixie Chicks. You weren’t expecting that, were you? No, that was a curveball. I’ll sing a little Eric Church too. And then my big finish is always Michael Jackson. “Thriller”? No, like “The Way You Make Me Feel.” That’s a good note to end on. [Sings] “Hee-hee.” That’s what I do. You and your wife tweet a lot about The Bachelor. No, my wife tweets about The Bachelor ... though I may have mentioned it. I just started watching this season. What changed? I was doing a scene on Scandal with Josh Malina and Katie Lowes. These two idiots were blabbing on about The Bachelor. Turns out Josh sits down with his family and they watch it together. Katie watches it and knows everything about it. I went home and I said to my wife, “We have to watch an episode.” I was hooked. One time I was at work and she asked, “Can I watch it without you?” I said, “No!” And she sent me a text, “I’m watching it.” I said, “What are you doing?!?!?” I bet Jake would have watched it alone. He’s done some questionable stuff on the show. Do you think Jake is a good person? I do think he’s a good person, though it depends what you categorize as a good person. He has the best of intentions. I don’t think he’s ever killed someone without thinking that it had to be done to protect the country. So in that way I think he’s a good guy. Do good guys kill people? Yeah, I think they do. Has there ever been anything in the script that you felt went too far with him? I’m not going to defend specific actions. God, this is

going to get me in a s—load of trouble, but I think everything he did came out of a belief that it’s his job to protect the country. Hold on. Are you a Fitz or a Jake girl? You’re not gonna hurt my feelings. I just can’t get down with how Fitz has been so unfaithful with his wife, Mellie [Bellamy Young]. It’s got to be tough, but how great is Bellamy Young? Does the Scandal cast hang out outside work? My favorite thing is to spend time with them. We usually get together, often at Jeff Perry’s house, though sometimes at mine or Kerry’s, to watch the episodes before they air. You guys actually like each other. Every actor on a TV show will tell you, “We’re like a family.” It’s bulls—. You’re never like a family. You don’t talk to that guy, that guy doesn’t talk to you, that guy hit on your wife. But there’s not one person on Scandal I don’t like. I guess you could use the old poker adage: If you sit down at a table and you can’t tell who the sucker is in 15 minutes, you’re probably the sucker. But it’s true. I love them. ■

Los Angeles is in the midst of a style renaissance, and suddenly it’s the place to be. Many designers are lured by the atmosphere and the concentration of stars. We’re ready to come too BY ERIC WILSON

ust One Eye is hard to see. Pulling up to a pretty, ivy-covered art deco office building in Hollywood, once the business headquarters of Howard Hughes, I, a dedicated shopper looking into L.A.’s most buzzed-about new store with a curious name, am greeted by a serious man in a jacket and tie who looks to be a security guard. For a moment, the thought occurs to me that this might be the wrong place. But he politely leads the way through an unmarked door into a small room with a few books and journals lying around, to a long hallway, and finally, to a room that looks more like an art gallery than a fashion destination. A Damien Hirst spot painting dominates one wall, next to a manga-style sculpture of a sexy nurse by Takashi Murakami. Are there any clothes here? Then I spot Vera Wang and figure skater Evan Lysacek, entranced by a jewelry display in front of a triptych of Murakami paintings. Irene Neuwirth’s Lysacek tries on Adidas store replicates a living room. shoes in a chair made of metal wires that might have had a previous life in a torture chamber. “It’s all happening in L.A.,” Wang says in this impressive space on Oscars weekend, wearing bloomer shorts over tights.

More and more designers are coming to L.A. too, attracted to the energy that has sprouted from critically acclaimed farm-to-table restaurants, art happenings, and trendy new neighborhoods.

SCENE STEALERS Well, at least that’s the view of a snobbish East Coaster. I used to feel like an alien here. Open spaces give me claustrophobia. And Los Angeles, despite playing a pivotal role in the evolution of American fashion thanks to great costume designers of the ’30s and ’40s like Edith Head and Adrian, became better known for producing great denim and casual sportswear. But lately some of the most exciting new stores and fashion events are changing my perception, like Just One Eye, co-founded by Paola Russo, the well-connected former fashion director at L.A.’s longstanding cutting-edge designer emporium Maxﬁeld. (She persuaded Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to collaborate with Hirst on a $55,000 backpack and named the store after her singular vision.)

Maybe it takes Tom Ford to bring it back.” In fact, the scene is already thriving, with shopping destinations like Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach and Melrose Place in West Hollywood regaining their luster. Burberry has made a big push with its extraordinary new Rodeo Drive flagship, and as you read this, chief executive and creative officer Christopher Bailey is planning a big party celebrating “fashion, music, and Britishness” at Griffith Observatory. Dior artistic director Raf Simons will bring his traveling cruise show to L.A. on May 9.

Irene Neuwirth, or Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte. A few months ago, Chait opened his ﬁrst Elder Statesman store in a bungalow in the shadow of the Paciﬁc Design Center (a building the designer describes as “a big blue mountain”). It has quickly become a destination for those in the market for bespoke knits, winning Chait recognition from his peers in the Council of Fashion Designers of America. “When I was in New York recently, I would say the majority of people I met told me they were moving to L.A.,” Chait says. “What’s nice about being here is that you get to stay in your lane. If you think about each of the companies that started out here, there really are no similarities at all, because everyone lives in their own little zones. “Los Angeles is a company town, but it’s not a fashioncompany town,” he continues, citing the value of being apart from the Seventh Avenue herd. “It still allows you to have that creative juice.”

Find Your Perfect

SHIRTDRESS

Get It Right Don’t call it a straightup #tbt: Once the go-to uniform of ’50s housewives, this ultraflattering silhouette is back. But while its graceful appeal remains, updated flourishes— contrast piping, sheer paneling, masculine flair—give this dress new life. Style a crisp, boxy cut with sleek calf-hair slides and a compact cross-body for a creative take on 9-to-5 dressing. If your plans call for the beach then out for drinks, try a patterned number worn unbuttoned over a sultry one-piece, then pair with metallic sandals after sunset.

Whether you go utilitarian or ladylike, this breezy wardrobe staple oozes relaxed sophistication

It’s really quite simple to take on a trend. Just follow this smart advice from InStyle’s Cindy Weber Cleary

KRISTEN STEWART in Torn by Ronny Kobo

I love stripes: awning stripes, pinstripes, sailor stripes, zebra stripes! Does this mean I am a linear thinker? Perhaps. But I’m also in awe of their power to command attention and visually minimize or maximize. Right now I’m drawn to a sophisticated (and less sporty) take on the pattern—bold bands on sleek silhouettes intended for conﬁdent women. So there. I’ve drawn a line in the sand.

WorldMags.net How to Pull It Off … 1 Don’t be afraid to give horizontal stripes a try. Yes, a tight pencil skirt in graphic blocks of color may make your butt look even rounder, but, hey, for some of us, that’s exactly the goal. If bigger is not your objective, choose a less clingy and more structured shape, such as an A-line dress, which is more forgiving. 2 Vertical and diagonal motifs can make you appear both taller and slimmer. With the former, opt for ﬂoor-length pants to elongate your silhouette; for the latter, go for a top or dress to create a waist-whittling wraparound eﬀect in your tummy area. Leather tote, L.K.

GREAT STYLE HAS NO AGE

Demi MOORE

With experience comes expertise. Here’s how to own a look into your 50s and beyond

1 2

Find a new way to show some skin

Cleavage—been there, done that. For elegant impact, bare a less-predictable body part instead. If you have killer arms, for instance, go sleeveless.

Opt for a modern mani

Pass on the punky purples and acid greens in favor of a deeply sophisticated gray: “This versatile shade is chic but not as boring or expected as other neutrals,” says nail pro Tracylee. Brush on two coats over neatly rounded nails.

Dior Vernis Nail Lacquer in Junon, $27; dior.com.

Play with fabric and flourishes

Pare back on the extras

Moore’s outﬁt, made of stretch viscose cady fabric, has just the right amount of slouch while still maintaining a tailored, lean silhouette. Look to design elements such as satin side panels to add gorgeous dimension. 4

It may be tempting to oﬀset a dark outﬁt with wild and colorful accessories, but Moore’s restrained choices—a matching clutch and minimalist stilettos—read sexy and commanding. Stuart Weitzman napa leather sandals, $415; stuartweitzman.com. Vince Camuto leather clutch, $148; vincecamuto.com.

Don’t care about long hair

Think you need to chop your locks into a bob once you’ve blown out a certain number of candles on your birthday cake? Drop the shears. “Long hair is very youthful,” says N.Y.C. hairstylist Nathaniel Hawkins. The key to pulling oﬀ length: Accentuate layers with a texturizing spray. “Loose, tousled ends create softness and body,” says Hawkins.

STEP 1 MIRACLE SILK SHAMPOO Silky, smooth hair starts in the shower. To create lustrous shine while enhancing manageability, massage throughout hair and rinse.

STEP 2 MIRACLE SILK HAIR MASK

MODEL: MARIA CHECA, PHOTOGRAPHY: JONATHAN BECKERMAN, HAIR STYLIST: JOSUE PEREZ

With help from the collectionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s signature silk ingredient, eri, this mask instantly detangles hair, imparts silkiness and locks in moisture. Just work into hair for one to three minutes after shampooing, then rinse.

STEP 3 MIRACLE SILK CONDITIONER This time-saver in a bottle will literally cut your drying time in half. For vibrant and voluminous hair, apply after mask all over hair then rinse thoroughly.

STEP 4 MIRACLE SILK SMOOTHING BALM Detangle and lock in that silky look by applying this balm to wet hair after conditioning.

STEP 5 MIRACLE SILK LEAVE-IN For the ultimate frizz-free, voluminous look, nourish your hair with this restorative, styling leave-in treatment and benefit from silky, shinier hair and strengthened strands.

STEP 6 MIRACLE SILK INTENSIVE HAND CREAM For equally smooth and silky skin, massage this soothing cream into your hands to reveal a younger, healthier and more revitalized appearance.

WorldMags.net THREE WAYS

Slit Skirt

While it may not inspire any memes (think Angelina Jolie’s right leg), this wraparound take on the style still shows just enough skin to turn heads

SKIRT Neoprene, Tosia, $395; at Darling, 646-336-6966.

Going for crisp? A butcher-striped blouse and structured satchel push the skirt into ﬁercely sophisticated territory. Balance the boysclub vibe with a pair of devastatingly sexy strappy sandals.

Wrap a graphic sweater around your waist to add eye-popping contrast to a pale palette. Classic white sneakers and a colorblock cross-body bag keep things playful but polished enough for a lunch date.

sheer trend without looking as if I’m having a wardrobe malfunction? #AskInStyle @InStyle Stick to solid, clean-lined undergarments that match your outﬁt. Anything too decorative, like lace, feels like an “oops” moment if it’s peeking out. Next, determine your coverage comfort level. If you’re dying to wear a sheer dress (see Altuzarra, right), a bralette plus highwaist boy shorts looks daring but elegant. A full slip is more demure but doesn’t sacriﬁce sexiness. Still too little? Layer a bodysuit or bandeau under a see-through blouse.

The ZEN Commandments Once considered the woo-woo practice of aging hippies, meditation has gone mainstream. But is all that deep breathing and mantra work really going to change your life? Amy Synnott explores the mindfulness revolution

t’s just past 7 on a Wednesday night in February, and N.Y.C.’s SoHo Synagogue is packed. More than 300 candles illuminate the cavernous sanctuary, their shadows dancing against the exposed brick-and-stone walls as new age music wafts through the air. On the ﬂoor, 50 or so young, welldressed professionals sit cross-legged on cushions. As the stragglers take their places, the music stops and Dina Kaplan, a former tech entrepreneur and founder of the Path, a pop-up meditation practice, addresses the crowd. “I’m so happy you’re all here,” she says. “Tonight we’re going to give you a well-rounded workout for your brain.”

As she begins to explain how the 45-minute meditation class will be structured—a bit of mindfulness, some mantra work, and finally a guided visualization—I fidget on my cushion. Unlike most of the other people in the room, I don’t do yoga, so my flexibility (not to mention my inner quietude) is limited. As everyone around me starts sniffing rapidly in sync—a breathing technique designed to “increase energy and focus your mind”—I work hard to stifle a giggle. Let me be clear: No one else is laughing. Not Trey, the 40-something corporate exec emptying his mind beside me, or Skylar, the 28-year-old blond photographer in the

lotus position behind him. No, these charismatic New Yorkers take their meditation seriously—and there isn’t the faintest whiff of patchouli about them. “It’s really not a hippie-dippie scene,” says 36-yearold Nicole Thomas, who, when not meditating, is the director of retail training for Fendi. She tries to come to the Path at least once a week, which is exactly what Kaplan, who spent 10 days at a silent meditation retreat in Indonesia in 2011, wants: “My mission in life is to make meditation more accessible to mainstream people. I wanted to make it appealing to the old me— the girl who was running a tech company. I wasn’t going to go to some weird space with pink pillows and incense, but I would go to a place that looked like the Apple store of meditation.” On the opposite side of the country, Suze Yalof Schwartz, a former magazine editor, had a similar idea. In 2014, she opened L.A.’s Unplug Meditation, which she describes as the “SoulCycle of meditation.” At her spare all-white studio—bathed in soothing purple shades meant to evoke “Aten Reign,” artist James Turrell’s 2013 site-speciﬁc light installation at New York’s Guggenheim—stressed-out mommies and venture capitalists drop in for “lunchtime quickie” spiritual reboots. “We designed it so people would feel like they were checking into heaven,” says Yalof Schwartz, whose Web site offers the following “warning” on its home page: “Meditation may cause increased happiness, decreased stress, reduced anxiety, increased focus, higher test scores, optimism, better health, and inner peace.”

This may seem like hyperbole, but reams of research now support that statement unequivocally. Studies show that meditation, particularly the mindfulness variety, can boost productivity and immunity while helping to reduce cortisol levels, lower blood pressure, combat insomnia, and fight depression. And with advances in neuroscience, scientists are finally starting to understand why it works: “By training yourself to become more neutrally aware of the present moment—allowing thoughts to bubble up without judgment or attachment—you can literally rewire your brain to be less reactive to stress,” says Dean Sluyter, author of Natural Meditation: A Guide to Effortless Meditative Practice. No wonder everyone from 50 Cent to Jennifer Aniston is raving about it. Of course, in this age of 24/7 media access, many people still find the idea of sitting quietly—and ostensibly doing nada—for any chunk of time daunting. “People have these preconceived notions about how hard it is to meditate,” says Sluyter. “They think it needs to be uncomfortable, and they need the perfect place, and they need to do a certain number of minutes. But the truth is that meditating is something you can do anytime, anywhere. And it should be effortless.” Since there are so many different kinds of meditation—and admittedly, some of them are a lot trickier than others—we asked Sluyter for some easy tips to help laypeople like me get started with a basic mindfulness routine. Consider this your field guide to living in the now.

4 Seize the small moments. It’s a great idea to establish a daily practice. But not everyone can carve out 20 or 40 minutes to sit on a pillow each morning. So get creative: Instead of quietly raging at the time wasted standing in line at the post ofﬁce or sitting at a red light, take a few long, deep breaths, and try not to think about anything. When it comes to meditating, “consistency [even just a few minutes a day] is more important than quantity,” says Sluyter.

Too antsy to sit? Try tai chi, a form of moving meditation.

“Meditation spaces are sprouting up now like yoga studios did 10 years ago.” —Dean Sluyter 1 Understand the basics. Based in Buddhist traditions, mindfulness can best be described as a hyper- (but nonjudgmental) awareness of the present moment. Most of us spend way too much time ruminating about the past, worrying about the future, and/or reacting reflexively (and often dysfunctionally) to the present; the more mindful you are, the more comfortable you are just being. Picture the typical overstressed brain as a salmon swimming upstream. Then imagine you tell that salmon to flip over on its back and try floating for a while. Now hand that salmon a margarita. Mindfulness is like a happy hour you can access anytime of the day—and it’ll never leave you with a hangover. 2 Stop posing. If you’re super-flexible and find the lotus position comfy, go for it. But there’s no reason your butt needs to ache every time you meditate. Sit on whatever you want, wherever you want, however you want, says Sluyter. “No one is going to give you points for looking like a perfect yogi.” 3 Focus on anything5…5for a while. When you first start your practice, it is helpful to have something to rest your attention on: your breath, an object, the repetition of a sound (or mantra). But don’t get too hung up on what it should be. “These are simply on-ramps to meditation,” says Sluyter. Once you feel settled, you won’t need these—you’ll be able to just sit.”

5 Stop being so judgy. So you’re sitting there, trying hard not to think, when your mind wanders to last night’s email from your boss. Don’t feel bad—it happens to everyone. The key is to glide right over that rabbit hole instead of diving in; gently bring your attention back to the meditation. By not freaking out, your mind settles down by itself. And don’t worry if you get restless. “Whatever you’re feeling, that’s simply stuff that’s passing through,” says Sluyter. Studies show even if you think your mind is wandering the entire time, you are still reaping the beneﬁts of the meditation. 6 Ignore your mood. Think you’re too stressed to meditate? So happy you don’t need it? News ﬂash: It’s good for everyone, so enjoy the (guilt-free) margarita.

The Internet is obsessed with your hair. There’s not a lot of it to be obsessed by! My great friend in Paris, Odile Gilbert, cuts my hair. And she’s such a wild beast—she’s like a sculptress. It’s my great pleasure to just sit down and let her do what she wants. Do you bleach your brows? Sometimes. I like that look. I’m lazy, so it’s quite nice that I don’t have to do much for it to look like it’s something. In your upcoming film Trainwreck, you’re completely transformed with smoky eyes and bombshell waves. I play the editrix of this insane men’s magazine, and I was thinking that she has looked at lots of pictures of Carine Roitfeld and is kind of trying to look like her—and failing. I don’t [usually] wear makeup. I tend to look like a drag queen when I put all that stuff on. I was shocked to read that you’ve been mistaken for a guy by airport security. Oh, I think they’re very tired, those people. They see somebody nearly 6 feet tall coming toward them with short hair, and they just say, “Male assist.” So I’m not even remotely insulted. Have you always been so confident? I have never been particularly hung up on what I look like. I was this height when I was 13, and you know, there’s only so much I can do with myself. At 54, what’s your approach to aging? Aging is not something to be feared. I’m interested in wrinkles appearing—I think it’s kind of fascinating. I wouldn’t want to be 23 again. And I wouldn’t want to be 53 again! I live with the reality that my life just gets better. —SUZANNE ZUCKERMAN

Why I Love Them … 1 They project a carefree, effortless vibe. Feel a breeze coming? Might as well let the wind have its way with you: These braids look best when they’re about to come undone. Loose and full of texture, they are the hairstyle equivalent of spring’s breezy boho dresses. 2 They eliminate the need for blowouts. Nora Ephron once joked that not having to worry about your hair is “the secret upside of death.” May I suggest a less radical approach? Toss your hair into a braid and you won’t even notice your “Barfly” membership at Drybar has expired. 3 They get your hair out of your face. Personally, I find it tricky to get much accomplished when there’s a split end stuck to my lip gloss.

the HEFTY HERRINGBONE

With its intricate detailing and clean lines, this sophisticated style proves you don’t need to be under 21 to pull oﬀ a braid. To nail the look, slick back hair on the sides with gel, securing it by your ears with two bobby pins. Divide the strands in back into two sections, crossing the outermost pieces of each section over and underneath the other hair. Secure ends with a clear elastic, then loosely tug at the braid to deconstruct it a bit.

Wide herringbones, braided pompadours, peekaboo coils—we haven’t seen this many stylish twists since John Barrett waved in the country’s ﬁrst braid bar in 2011. Here’s how to get your kink on.

the BRAIDED POMPADOUR

Kérastase Couture Styling Gloss Appeal, $37; kerastaseusa.com.

If you’re the kind of girl who likes to see heads swivel—and iPhones ﬂash—when you walk into a room, this braid’s for you. Clip up the top section, then create a Dutch braid (aka a reverse French braid; that is, braid under rather than over) on both sides of your head. Keeping volume on top, French-braid the center. Gather all three braids and twist into a low bun, leaving the ends loose.

the PEEKABOO COILS

Tresemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse, $5; walgreens.com.

My Secret Trick I know what you’re thinking: That braid-on-a-brastrap looks pretty scary. But bear with me. If you find the right shade—and rub away the synthetic gleam with a bit of dry shampoo before applying—it can look great wrapped around the base of a messy bun. Just make sure to hide the ends. You don’t want to look like you’ve got a Wonderbra dangling from your updo. 204

Fancy yourself more of a woodland-nymph type? Then a lowmaintenance underbraid like this—which renders you festivalready in about five minutes—might be just the ticket. After you’ve flat-ironed your hair, grab a small section of hair at your nape, directly under the ear. Start with a fishtail braid, and as you get closer to the ends, let it seamlessly morph into a regular braid. Repeat on the other side.

10 WAYS TO

Look Chic in the Rain SELENA GOMEZ

Tap Into the Forecast

Embellish Your Updo

Save your Herculean blowout eﬀorts for sunnier days. Tightly pulling back your hair leaves zero room for humidity to sneak into strands and swell them up, says Gomez’s stylist Lona Vigi. Give hair a light, glossy coat of oil before twisting into a braided bun. If the pullback leaves you feeling exposed, Vigi says, statement earrings create a fun focal point.

Resort to (Anti) Smear Tactics

See ya, smoky eyes. “The pigments in eye makeup are especially prone to bleeding,” says makeup pro Allan Avendaño. Stick to light, neutral shadows and waterproof liner. If you can’t pry your fingers off that tube of Diorshow, seal your coated lashes with this film-forming, H₂O-proof mascara.

Are you the person who always wonders how everyone else remembered to pack an umbrella? Now you can track raindrops as obsessively as you do Gilt sales: Enter your location into the Dark Sky app ($4; available on iTunes) and it will alert you to expect things like “light rain in seven minutes, ending 10 minutes later.” Well worth the price of a latte, no?

Live in a Bubble

A deep, enveloping umbrella shields not just the top of your head but also your shoulders so drops don’t destroy your makeup or hair. If you want a tool you can tuck into your bag more easily, the Davek Mini ($49; davekny.com) measures a wee 7 inches and boasts a wind-resistant frame to keep you covered.

Ditch Powder Blush

You need color that won’t streak while you’re darting in and out of downpours. Avendaño, who works on models for Sports Illustrated swimsuit shoots, relies on cream blush topped with a light misting of setting spray to hold the look.

BEAUTY 10 WAYS TO

Get Hydrated

WorldMags.net Rain, plus this cream, can actually help soften wrinkles!

Damp weather can work in your favor, especially if you have a wrinkle or two. In the a.m., rub on a moisturizer laced with hyaluronic acid, a humectant that draws in water from the skin and air, says Connecticut dermatologist Mona Gohara. As water is stored, the formula plumps up the skin’s surface for a smoothing eﬀect.

8 Prep a Quick Fix

If you’ve got an umbrella in your bag, make sure these two touchup tools aren’t out of reach either. When rain ruins your makeup job, use a damp sponge to blend colors back together and sweep away undereye smudges. Then troubleshoot with concealer, says Avendaño. If your hair has turned fuzzy en route, spritz on a humidity-resistant hairspray to tame frizz.

SAR AH HYL AND

Pop Your Pout

Dewy skin? Check. Waterproof eye makeup? Check. The missing link to your rainy-day look? A gray-busting poppy lip color. It just brightens up everything, from your face to your mood, says Avendaño, who recommends a matte formula for impact—plus, it’s a nice contrast to moister skin. (He used this shade on Hyland on a stormy night.) MAC Cosmetics lipstick in All Fired Up, $16; maccosmetics.com.

Get the Boot

You don’t want to risk damaging your leather Choos in rainy weather, so splurge on some stylish galoshes. Short versions elongate legs better than your tall rubber wellies, and says Coulter, they also show oﬀ the curves in your legs. Rubber and PVC rain boots, Bernardo, $145; nordstrom.com.

Layer in Black

A trenchcoat is a staple, no doubt, but if you’re on the shorter side, be sure to choose one that hits about mid-thigh so as not to drown your shape, says stylist Cher Coulter. If it’s just too hot to button up, go for layers of dark clothes. They’ll give you the option to peel oﬀ anything that gets soggy, and the color will hide rain spots too.

The most important thing to remember is â&#x20AC;&#x153;to have fun with it and create diďŹ&#x20AC;erent silhouettes as your hair grows back,â&#x20AC;? says Adir Abergel, who works with Kristen Stewart. For the ďŹ rst few weeks, slick back sides with styling cream, then mist with hairspray. This looks â&#x20AC;&#x153;clean and modern,â&#x20AC;? he says. Every six weeks, trim the back to allow strands in front and at the crown to catch up. And keep refreshing that bobby-pin stash. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I pin up hair in back and add height at the crown to make it look bigger,â&#x20AC;? he says.

is the best dry Q What shampoo? A

That depends on what kind of results you’re looking for. We tested the latest batch of oil-absorbing mists and picked out our faves. Now N.Y.C. hairstylist Nathaniel Hawkins explains how to use each one to your advantage.

LEAST LIKELY TO WEIGH DOWN HAIR

MOST ABSORBENT

“This formula adds just a touch of texture to hair, so it’s ideal for ﬁne to medium-thick strands,” says Hawkins. “You won’t feel like you’re carrying around a head full of product.”

It goes on clear and feels a bit wet when ﬁrst applied, but then it dries to a powdery ﬁnish. Once you blend it in, the mist lends just the slightest bit of hold. “It does a really great job of soaking up oils,” says Hawkins.

Show Beauty Premiere Dry Shampoo, $47; sephora.com.

Herbal Essences Body Envy Dry Shampoo, $5; target.com.

MOST VERSATILE

LEAST LIKELY TO BE SPOTTED

If you currently keep texturizer and hairspray on your vanity, try a shot of this multitasker—it just might replace them both. The formula gives hair hold, volume, and instant bead-head appeal.

“This one doesn’t alter the texture of your hair like some of the others,” says Hawkins. And with zero white or chalky residue, “you’ll get the refresher you’re after without having to worry about the product showing on your roots.”

the coolest way to wear Q What’s these new temporary tattoos? A

Choose ones with delicate patterns and wear them as you would jewelry, says pro Kris Zero, who has styled Kate Bosworth. “Stacking a few of the thinner bands on your wrist—or even on your ﬁngers like knuckle rings—creates a peekaboo, sexy moment.” Try them alone, or mix them with your regular rings and bangles, Zero says. “They’re meant to be fun, after all.”

LIQUID FOUNDATION 7. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk PRIMER 3. Hourglass

CONCEALER 5. Clé de Peau Beauté

Think of this liquid as the best lingerie you’ll ever own. Like silk, it softens contours, allowing any makeup you wear to look better. Plus, says L.A. pro Sabrina Bedrani, “it has a matte texture so you don’t have to use much powder to set.” $52/ 1 ﬂ. oz.; sephora.com.

Before you balk at the price, test out this spreadable stick and marvel at how it diﬀuses dark circles, welts, or even sun spots. “A little goes a long way,” says L.A. makeup artist Mai Quynh. Its dry consistency doesn’t slip or transfer. $70; cledepeau beaute.com.

FOUNDATION BRUSH 2. Shiseido

MINERAL FOUNDATION 4. MAC Cosmetics Mineralize

TINTED MOISTURIZER 6. Laura Mercier

More blunt than most brushes, the dense bundle of synthetic bristles (for cream, liquid, and powder foundations) glides through nooks and crannies “without leaving any streaky lines,” says N.Y.C. makeup artist Julie Harris, who has worked with Kate Hudson. $30; shiseido.com.

You’d think a foundation jam-packed with minerals would have a dry, gritty ﬁnish. Not this velvety cream, which hydrates with shea butter and emollients and takes only “a few swirls to blur imperfections,” says N.Y.C. makeup artist Anthea King. $35; maccosmetics.com.

BB CREAM 1. Smashbox Camera Ready Alphabet-cream skeptics, listen up: This tinted, peptide-rich lotion will make you a believer. It fades sun spots and broken capillaries, leaving a lit-from-within vibrancy. “It’s essential for the ﬁveminute-makeup person,” says L.A. pro Tasha Reiko Brown. $39; sephora.com.

InStyle / MAY 2015

We can be as ﬁnicky as Goldilocks when selecting tinted moisturizer: Some are too sheer, some too bronzy. However, this antioxidant-spiked hydrator is just right. It gives skin a hint of color and “blurs unevenness and redness without looking cakey or makeup-y,” says King. $44; lauramercier.com.

We crave foundation that does it all, and this weightless version—a winner for 12 years running—ﬁts the bill. “The coverage is buildable, and the ﬁnish isn’t too dewy or too matte,” says Quynh. With 24 versatile shades, there’s no settling for anything less than a perfect match. $62; giorgio armanibeauty.com.

POWDER FOUNDATION 8. Chanel Double Perfection Lumière This ﬁnely milled formula has split personalities: It’s a powder when applied directly from its compact, but dampen a sponge and it turns into a cream. Either way, “it doesn’t settle into pores or ﬁne lines,” says L.A. makeup artist Justin Tyme. $55; chanel.com.

EDITORS’ PICK 9. Cover FX Blemish Treatment Concealer Unless you read the ﬁne print, you’d never know this elegant stick, which comes in 10 shades, is spiked with skin enhancers. Salicylic acid and bisabolol zap acne and inﬂammation, yet the formula blends and covers as well as any unmedicated version we’ve tried. $25. Go to instyle.com/bbb picks for discount from April 17 to May 15.

POWDER 10. Laura Mercier Fact: T-zone shine—that is, an unseemly reflection on your forehead, nose, or chin—happens to the best of us. This barely there powder wards it off in an instant. “It doesn’t leave that telltale powdery finish,” says Bedrani, who uses it on clients like Felicity Jones. $37; laura mercier.com.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s healthy lifestyle isn’t the only thing that gives her a ﬂushed glow. This cream formula, which Los Angeles makeup artist Jeannia Robinette uses on the star, “melts into skin beautifully. Gwyneth loves it—and she only likes makeup that looks real.” All shades have rich pigment and are crazy easy to blend. $38; chanel.com.

Call it a matter of semantics, but pros swear this creamy balm delivers a gleam, not a shimmer. When applied along cheekbones, the nose, and the collarbone, “it gives the skin a natural, believable glow,” says L.A. makeup artist Darlene Jacobs. “I use it on every one of my clients and wouldn’t be caught dead without it in my kit.” $38; rmsbeauty.com.

Made with minerals, this baked blush has a swirly, otherworldly luminescence. A few drops of water transforms it into a “blendable cream blush,” says L.A. makeup artist Kimberly Bragalone. “It creates this beautiful luminosity without looking like your cheeks are caked with glitter.” $27; mac cosmetics.com.

BLUSH BRUSH 15. Nars Yachiyo Kabuki With a spiral of bristles and a woven wisteria handle, this brush looks like a tiny work of art, without any sacriﬁce of function. The ﬁbers lift just the right amount of powder for sweeping, swirling, and skimming. Bonus: The light, sturdy handle couldn’t be easier to use. $55; narscosmetics.com.

ECO-FRIENDLY BRONZER 17. Tarte Amazonian Clay A few sweeps of this golden powder hint at a soul-restoring vacation in Rio de Janeiro. “It’s not a chunky shimmer,” says King.

NEUTRAL 18. Deborah Lippmann Naked This taupe would be right at home in Olivia Pope’s closet of elegant neutrals. It looks crisp, clean, and competent—just like the ﬁxer herself. It suits all skin tones and “never streaks, which often happens with nudes,” says N.Y.C. nail pro Sunshine Outing. $18; deborahlippmann.com.

POLISH REMOVER 19. Zoya Remove Plus Taking oﬀ your nail polish shouldn’t require elbow grease. This three-in-one acetone removes even the clingiest glitter in an instant. And it’s gentle: “You can tell because it doesn’t leave ﬁngertips chalky white,” says N.Y.C. manicurist Julie Kandalec. $10/8 oz.; zoya.com.

ECO-FRIENDLY LINE 20. Zoya The technical but important part: Each of the 300-plus shades is “ﬁve free,” meaning no toluene, dibutyl phthalate, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, or camphor. Easier to grasp: “The colors are awesome and dry superfast,” says L.A. pro Melissa Bozant. $9–$10; zoya.com.

TOPCOAT 21. Seche Vite In the age of constant iPhone tapping, topcoats have never been more vital. This one gives nails a highgloss shine and dries polish in about 60 seconds. You can even “apply a second coat a few days later to ride out the mani,” says Bozant. $9; sallybeauty.com.

BASE COAT 23. CND Stickey

This sea green liquid goes on slightly tacky, which feels funny at ﬁrst, but, well, stick with it. “The tackiness anchors the polish to the nail and also helps prevent staining,” says N.Y.C. manicurist Angel Williams. $9; loxabeauty.com.

EDITORS’ PICK 24. Ciaté Geltox Starter Kit Gel color options generally leave much to be desired. But this topcoat ups the ante, lending any polish the longevity of a gel. Paint as usual, sweep on the clear lacquer, then hold under the included LED for a minute. Chip-free tips last up to three weeks. $99. Go to instyle.com/bbbpicks for discount from April 17 to May 15.

DARK 25. Essie Wicked Experts may not agree exactly what color this is— some told us deep brown, others thought black, another swore eggplant— but one thing’s for sure: It’s the chicest dark lacquer money can buy. “My clients always gravitate right to it,” says Outing. $9; essie.com.

Dancing jauntily between cherry red and watermelon pink, this juicy hue looks ablaze on ﬁngers and toes. “It’s fully opaque after two coats,” says Kandalec, who loves how ﬂattering it is on almost anyone. $27; chanel.com.

EYE-MAKEUP REMOVER 30. Lancôme Bi-Facil Most removers make you look one of two ways: like you coated your sockets with Crisco or like you scrubbed them with a Brillo pad. “This is the best eye-makeup remover. It wipes away to a nongreasy ﬁnish, and it doesn’t irritate,” says N.Y.C. makeup artist Kim Bower. $29; lancome-usa.com.

EYELINER PENCIL 31. Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes

POWDER EYE SHADOW 33. Nars

Precise enough to draw a deﬁned line but creamy enough to blend, this pencil is loved by makeup artists for the intensity of its pigment and how “it seriously never budges,” says L.A. makeup artist Carola Gonzalez. $19; sephora.com.

“You don’t need to go back three times to get these shadows to show up,” swears Julie Harris. Each of the 40-plus hues manages to be strong in color and elegant in texture, whether you’re going ﬂat and matte or ﬂashy and shimmery. $25; narscosmetics.com.

WATERPROOF MASCARA 32. Chanel Inimitable Queue up tearjerkers, from Beaches to Still Alice, and put this waterproof workhorse to the test. “It’ll last through any tears,” says Justin Tyme. On days when you don’t expect the waterworks, you can depend on a satiny formula and no-ﬂake ﬁnish. $30; chanel.com.

LIQUID EYELINER 34. Marc Jacobs Beauty Magic Marc’er The impossibly ﬁne tip “feels like a calligraphy pen,” says Kathy Jeung, who loves the eyeliner’s sharp, shiny ﬁnish. The inky pigment delivers type-A accuracy—no skips, jumps, or fading. $30; sephora.com.

INEXPENSIVE MASCARA 35. L’Oréal Paris Voluminous For less than a green juice, you’ll get a formula that leaves your lashes thicker, longer, and darker.

BROW PENCIL 37. Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz If you followed Julia Stiles’s lead and plucked wispy arches in the ’90s, there’s still hope for your 2015 brows. “With the tiny little tip, you can really draw hair-like strokes,” says Jeung— making bare spots, like butterﬂy clips, a thing of the past. $21; anastasia beverlyhills.com.

“It’s the best brush,” says L.A. makeup artist Kerry Malouf of the dense ﬁbers that evenly coat lashes with jet-black pigment. “The formula is lengthening and thickening, with no clumpiness.” And it’s not going anywhere. “Even if you rub your eyes, this doesn’t move.” $32; yslbeautyus.com.

MINERAL EYE SHADOW 39. Bare Minerals Ready Eye Shadow 2.0 Mineral-based makeup usually looks suited for the Mediterranean— which is great if you’re sunning in Santorini. This range looks like heaven on

EYELASH CURLER 40. Shu Uemura The padded rubber bumper and springy handle of this tool lift, spread, and ﬂare every last lash. “The shape works for all eyes, even smaller ones,” says Jeung. As Quynh puts it: “There’s no better tool to help fake a good night’s rest.” $20; shuuemura-usa.com.

SELF-TANNER FOR BODY 136. St. Tropez Dry Oil Never seen an oil-based sunless tanner before? That’s because the tanning agent DHA usually repels water. (St. Tropez spent two years developing this genius blend.) Smooth it on for instant vacation legs—the dry oil “gives a beautiful golden glow,” says Julie Harris—and eight hours later you’ll have a convincing tan. $50; ulta.com.

EDITORS’ PICK 137. Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield SPF 30 PA+++ Some sunscreens claim to be invisible, but, well … they’re not. Murad is so conﬁdent about its claim that the formula actually comes in a transparent

vial. But sunscreen is just the start. Peptides encourage collagen production, while black currant and rosemary improve overall texture. $65. Go to instyle.com/ bbbpicks for discount from April 17 to May 15.

OVERALL BODY SUNSCREEN 138. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPF 100+ With a little salt and a lime, a shot of tequila disappears quickly. Covering your body in a full ounce of sunscreen? Now that’s a challenge. “That’s the amount you need to get full coverage,” says L.A. dermatologist Karyn Grossman. “It’s tough to spread so much lotion.” This spray makes short work of the task; mist on the broad-spectrum shield until “skin looks wet.” $12; neutrogena.com.

ECO-FRIENDLY FACIAL SUNSCREEN 139. Colorescience Sunforgettable SPF 50 What looks like an elegant powder—both on the face and in the self-dispensing brush—is one of the highest SPF mineral sunscreens on the market. “I’m always telling patients to reapply sunscreen every two hours, but it’s so hard to do,” says Dr. Annie Chiu, who keeps one of these in her purse. “This makes it easy.” $62; colorescience.com.

OVERALL FACIAL SUNSCREEN 140. EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46 A chemical and physical sunscreen in a totally clear formula? We were

shocked too. “It’s superlightweight but gives great coverage,” says Miami dermatologist Leslie Baumann. A generous 5 percent concentration of niacinamide combats the sun’s wrinkle-inducing eﬀects. $32; lovely skin.com.

SELF-TANNER FOR FACE 141. Clarins Liquid Bronze Self Tanning You won’t believe this milky lotion: It seriously smells like a fresh, tropical morning but is actually a sunless tanner. Apply like regular moisturizer, then “buﬀ it out with a soft brush,” says Kimberly Bragalone. “It takes the edge oﬀ pale skin without that obvious, muddy look.” $37; clarins.com.

WorldMags.net

WorldMags.net amber nectar “cleanses, detangles, and patches hair with fatty acids,” says N.Y.C. hairstylist Nathaniel Hawkins. $32/$34; rahua.com.

FOR NORMAL HAIR 144. Oribe Signature

says L.A. stylist Adir Abergel. $29/$31; renefurtererusa.com.

FOR FINE HAIR 142. René Furterer Volumea Volumizing At natural-food stores, carob is a sad replacement for chocolate. Here the extract coats the entire hair shaft from root to tip, thickening the actual diameter of your strands. “You can have the ﬁnest hair, and it will give you volume and bounce,”

ECO-FRIENDLY LINE 143. Rahua With an ingredients list that reads like a botany textbook, not a chemistry table—aloe barbadensis, anyone?—this all-natural blend is super-legit. Because the Amazonia rahua nut oil is thin enough to penetrate the hair shaft, not just sit on top of it, this

First, you’ll notice the scent, which is, in a word, heavenly (it’s made with watermelon and lychee extracts). Then you’ll notice how good your hair looks. “It gives hair moisture without leaving any residue,” says L.A. hairstylist Raquel Martuscelli. “And it works well on any texture.” $38/$39; oribe.com.

INEXPENSIVE LINE 145. L’Oréal Paris Total Repair 5 Restoring Raise your hand if you color your hair, dry it, or style it. That’s what we

thought. “Most of my clients need to target a few diﬀerent concerns— dryness, heat damage, split ends,” says Hawkins. This oil-and-silicone blend works to moisturize and smooth cuticles in one nourishing formula. $5 each; drugstore.com.

FOR CURLY HAIR 146. Kérastase Nutritive Bain Oléo-Curl/OléoRelax Masque Instead of leaving tight ringlets shellacked, crispy, or greasy, these crystal-clear liquids lay down frizz with shorea and palm oils, says N.Y.C. stylist Gabrielle Corney. “If you’re going to straighten your hair, you’ll get an easier blow-dry.” If not, curls are left light and springy and parched ends are quenched. $39/ $63; kerastase-usa.com.

EDITORS’ PICK 147. Rita Hazan Weekly Remedy Hair always looks happiest the day it gets colored, mostly because stylists break out the big-gun conditioners to minimize the damage of dyes. This duo—a cuticleopening blend, allowing for deeper penetration of hydrators, followed by a moisturizing rice protein— replicates that same eﬀect, only at home on a weekly basis. $42. Go to instyle .com/bbbpicks for discount from April 17 to May 15.

FOR COLORTREATED HAIR 148. Oribe Beautiful Color Harnessing the very same molecules that give fruits their vibrant hues, these lush formulas seal pigments into the hair shaft, then top them with a silky layer of botanical moisture. “It gives colored hair that extra oomph it needs,” says Corney. $39/$42; oribe.com.

PADDLE BRUSH 161. Mason Pearson

ROUND BRUSH 158. Ibiza Boar Bristle Twenty dense rows of boar bristles and a soft cork handle team up for a round brush that’s actually easy to handle, making DIY blowouts a breeze, not an intense triceps workout. “It gives the hair so much body and bounce,” says Kylee Heath, who has used it on Soﬁa Vergara. $48; ibizahair.com.

EDITORS’ PICK 159. Sarah Potempa Beachwaver S1 Spinning electronic devices near the hair sounds like trouble, no? That’s what you might think until you try this self-rotating barrel. Hair smoothly wraps around the ceramic wand,

making deﬁned curls or loose waves. Two speeds, an adjustable temperature gauge, and arrows to control direction eliminate burns and impatience. $129. Go to instyle.com/ bbbpicks for discount from April 17 to May 15.

INEXPENSIVE BLOW-DRYER 160. Inﬁnity Pro by Conair, 1875 Watt

Before shine spray, there was this mixed-bristle brush. Boar bristles— which resemble human hair’s structure, causing less tangles—pull oil from the scalp and rounded nylon spikes distribute it down to tips. Hair is left “smooth, glossy, and polished,” says Adir Abergel. $205; neimanmarcus.com.

FLATIRON 162. Harry Josh Pro Tools

The AC motor makes quick work of even the rowdiest hair; ionic particles help tame frizz and smooth coarse strands. With its wide concentrator and generous diﬀuser, “it’s competing with high-end brands” 10 times its cost “and doing it well,” says Raquel Martuscelli. $35; target.com.

Fact: A ﬂatiron is actually the most versatile tool in your kit. Abergel uses this one, with its beveled edges, 45-second heat-up time, and ceramic plates, to smooth and “create great angles and waves.” The “edge-to-edge” heat means fewer passes for sleek strands. $250; dermstore.com.

162

CURLING IRON 163. Hot Tools A handy dial lets you set an exact temperature of 280 degrees for thin, ﬁne hair and up to 430 for thicker textures. The iron evenly distributes heat “so curls just last and last,” says Gabrielle Corney. $40; ulta.com.

ECO-FRIENDLY HAIR BRUSH 164. Olivia Garden They call it a hairbrush, but “decadent scalp massager” would work too. Ballpoint bamboo bristles feel like dozens of itty-bitty ﬁngertips, stimulating circulation. “We use it after putting in extensions,” which tend to catch, says Amanda

George. “That’s how you know it really works.” $14; ulta.com.

BLOW-DRYER 165. Harry Josh Pro Tools Weighing just over a pound, this unit delivers a whoosh of 80 mph wind loaded with three million ions per second to bombard cuticles, leaving hair soft, shiny, and decidedly unfrizzy. (Turn ions oﬀ for more volume.) “This is the Maserati of dryers,” says Corney. “It’s got that vroom power.” $250; dermstore.com.

t’s a hot day in Hollywood, 2 o’clock in the afternoon, and the sun is scorching a back lot of Universal Studios. It’s the New York set, blocks of gleaming glass buildings and elegant brownstones in the middle of the San Fernando Valley. It’s discombobulating. But from behind a rack of clothes pops Reese Witherspoon, totally at ease. Her big blue eyes are clear, and she still has the peaches-andcream complexion of a 16-year-old. She flashes the wide grin that 300

InStyle / MAY 2015

has endeared her to audiences since she was a child. When she shakes my hand, her grip is firm but genteel. I grew up with girls like Witherspoon back in Alabama, where I’m from. Some of the characters from my novels, like Evelyn, the protagonist in Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, speak with the same sweet, gentle Southern accent. And like Evelyn, beneath Witherspoon’s sunny charm, there’s a clever mind. She’s as smart as a whip. I think of her roles in Election and Legally Blonde, in which her characters’ bubbliness disguises razorsharp ambition. “I’ve always been a little spitfire,” Witherspoon tells me when we finally sit down over some cheese straws, a Southern treat I brought from home. “Sometimes it’s gotten me into trouble,” she adds. But that need to speak her mind has also given vibrancy to complicated roles in such films as last year’s hit Wild or in her famously nuanced portrait of June Carter Cash in 2005’s Walk the Line. Today the 39-year-old Witherspoon is balancing motherhood, helming her own production company, Pacific Standard— she produced the noir thriller Gone Girl— and, of course, starring in her own films. Her newest is Hot Pursuit, out this month, a cops and robbers buddy flick co-starring Sofia Vergara. “Sofia and I got along so well, even our mothers get along,” she says, laughing. As we seek shade behind a fake city block, it’s easy to see why Witherspoon remains one of Hollywood’s most likable stars.

Fannie Flagg: The biggest kick I’ve gotten from doing this interview is seeing how people react when I tell them. Everybody down South takes a personal pride in your success. It’s as if you’re their daughter or their sister. Reese Witherspoon: Oh, what a great thing. I’m so proud of where I’m from. Being born in New Orleans and growing up in Nashville, I’m such a Southern girl. No matter where I go, I still hold all those values and traditions.

FF: When I came to New York, people thought everyone from the South were farmers and didn’t wear shoes. RW: Well, I didn’t grow up wearing a lot of shoes. I never wore shoes in the summer. Not once! We just ran around barefoot.

FF: Ha, do you still do that? RW: No! I can’t even imagine letting my kids do that either.

FF: When I grew up, we were told that to be ladylike, we could never raise our voice and must always be demure. Yet you’re a leading lady, a producer, and a businesswoman—not exactly the demurring type. RW: I went to Harpeth Hall, a wonderful all-girls high school in Nashville that encouraged us to see ourselves as working women in the world, to speak up for ourselves, to ask for equal pay and advocate for gender equality. Outside that school, I experienced the full force of a patriarchal society, but I had a core value system that said, “No, you really deserve to be treated equal to a man.”

FF: And you grew up with strong women at home too. RW: That’s true. My grandmother Dorothea skipped three grades in high school and graduated from Peabody University at 20. But she also loved getting her hair and nails done once a week. She taught me a lot about makeup, beauty, and fashion, which is one reason I love them so much. My mother, meanwhile, whenever she wasn’t teaching nursing at the state university, she was driving for the blind. On the weekends she cared for newborns at Vanderbilt University.

FF: You’ve been in the spotlight for almost 25 years, since 1991’s The Man in the Moon. Has fame gotten any easier to handle? On the one hand, you’re older now and more capable of dealing with it, but on the other, with the Internet there seems to be even less privacy. RW: Everyone experiences that loss of privacy with the Internet, not just celebrities. I knew that was part of the game when I started being an actor. It’s not my favorite part, but it’s certainly worth the exchange. I’ve gotten to travel the world; my children have gotten to travel the world; I get to meet the coolest people, like you.

FF: As both an actor and a producer, you have the opportunity to provide challenging roles for women both on- and oﬀscreen. RW: I grew up seeing incredibly strong women like Holly Hunter, Sigourney Weaver, and Debra Winger. I want to ensure that my 15-year-old daughter, Ava, grows up seeing those types of strong women playing complicated parts.

WorldMags.net the

FF: You’ve given her a great model. One role that sticks with me was June Carter Cash. You put yourself on the line. But I knew June, and she was exactly as you portrayed her, a real human being. RW: That means the world to me. FF: In Wild, not just your character but your portrayal of her as a woman on her own journey of self-discovery felt both personal and courageous. RW: My older brother [John] was a very

friends. I have a close group of girlfriends I call my Southern Maﬁa. One’s from Oklahoma, one’s from Arkansas, another’s from Tennessee. I get a lot out of my relationships with them. Parenting, getting through your marriage, getting through your day, these are hard things, and I ﬁnd solace in the fact that other people struggle with the same stuff I do. We all have concerns about our kids, our marriage, our dreams.

brave guy, and I always wanted to be just like him. So running around in the woods and creeks, watching motocross and NASCAR, go-karting and setting off ﬁrecrackers, catching frogs and eating snakes, everything the boys were doing, I was doing.

FF: Later this year, you’re launching a Southern-lifestyle brand, Draper James. Are these ladies its demographic? RW: Three years ago I was in Atlanta

FF: Writing and acting seem to me to be attempts to stop time or at least capture a moment in time. Would you go back to those younger years? RW: It’s pretty great right now. I’ve ﬁnally gotten to an age when I’m not afraid to have an opinion. I feel that my perspective matters. It took me a while to ﬁgure that out, but I’m there now.

FF: You’ve gotten over your Southernlady thing of trying to please people. RW: I was always pretty outspoken, actually, but now I’ve learned to say sorry when I make mistakes too.

FF: You’ve taken the lead on a lot of issues important to women, like the #askhermore movement during awards season, which sought to broaden redcarpet discourse. Do you ever think about going into politics? RW: I haven’t yet, but I still have a lot of life to live, so I can’t rule it out. I do believe that if you want to see change in the world, you have to be responsible for it. As women, we need to put our hat in the ring in government. Women represent 51 percent of the population but only 19.4 percent in Congress. That’s the reason we have gender inequality. That’s the reason women’s health care isn’t a major priority and why we don’t have universal pre-K nationwide. Women are natural-born problem solvers.

FF: I’ve noticed a trend of women sticking together more than they used to. RW: I learned a few years ago that there are people who don’t want good things for you. You’ve got to get away from them. Now I surround myself with supportive

shooting a ﬁlm, and I was struck by the cultural explosion down there. But even though there were wonderful restaurants and amazing music venues, nothing was representing the fashion aspect of the Southern woman. We’re not from New York. We’re not from L.A. But we are current; we read InStyle; we love a dinner party, a luncheon, and, of course, fashion. Just look at my grandmother.

FF: In your new movie, Hot Pursuit, you co-star with Sofia Vergara. She plays the widow of a drug kingpin, and you’re the uptight police officer escorting her through Texas. The comedic chemistry between you two is great. RW: As soon as I met Sofia, I said, “I want to make a movie with you.” I think she’s the next Lucille Ball. She and I together are such a funny thing, because we represent two completely different cultures and kinds of women, but we just love each other. We laughed so much. I couldn’t understand what she was saying half the time. She couldn’t understand what I was saying half the time. But we both love cake, clothes, kids, and our families.

HALL OF FEMMES

One doesn’t grow up to be as kick-ass as Witherspoon without a few strong role models. Here are three of hers.

DOROTHEA DRAPER WITHERSPOON “My grandmother was a beautiful woman and ﬁercely intelligent. She never thought one precluded the other.”

BETTY REESE WITHERSPOON “My mother has a tremendous work ethic. She had three jobs and showed me it’s not what you say that matters but what you do.”

FF: You can’t fake chemistry or teach comic timing. Where does yours come from? RW: My mom is really the funny one. My grandmother was very dry. She had a smart sense of humor. But my mother made me laugh, and I loved to make her laugh. When I was a child, she would literally laugh at everything I did, so that just made me be more silly. She was the perfect audience.

FF: And are you for your kids? RW: I hope so! I’m going to my daughter’s school play tonight. I’m so excited. For once I get to give the bouquet on opening night. ■

HOUSE RULES

Nicola Peltz has been crying all day. Before her sunset pedicure at the Peninsula Beverly Hills Spa, the 20-yearold had been working her tear ducts for hours to practice a sob scene for the A&E hit series Bates Motel, now in its third season. Peltz plays a vixen named Bradley Martin who has “gone a little insane,” she says. “I’m meant to look like s—.” But here in the golden light, there’s not a blemish to be seen on her makeup-free face, framed by wavy blond locks above a navy Helmut Lang sweater. Peltz has pedi rules beﬁtting a busy actress. No color: “They’ll just take it oﬀ when I get back to the Bates set.”

No judging: “My feet are heinous,” she says, blaming their sorry state on running in heels in Transformers: Age of Extinction, her blockbuster breakthrough (the next project on deck: The Deep Blue Good-By with Rosamund Pike and Christian Bale, out next year). She has other dicta too. No. 1: Family first. The Peltzes are a tight-knit clan. She has seven siblings and lives with her brother Will, a fellow actor. No 2: Strange is good. “I like the weird concoctions,” she says, explaining her choice of roles—and lunch. “I love apples and hot sauce.” Pedi over, she almost takes a selfie, forgetting Rule No. 3: “No selfies after tears,” she says, laughing. “I cried off all my makeup.” — SHARON CLOTT KANTER

SLIDIN’ AWAY

It’s hard to get a handle on SZA—pronounced “SIZZ-uh”—whose raspy voice haunts the sparse soundscapes of last year’s buzzy album Z. (It’s Part 2 of a trilogy: S came out in 2013, and A is out this spring.) On a recent Friday afternoon in Los Angeles, the 24-year-old singer admits she’s hard to keep track of too. “I won’t be SZA forever. Being an artist is a doorway to other things.” Though her future is TBD, SZA’s path has already been remarkable. The former gymnast, born Solana Rowe, grew up wearing a hijab according to her father’s Islamic faith while attending church services for her mother’s Christian one. She worked in retail at Sephora and in marketing at Nike before a record producer overheard an early track of hers by chance and quickly signed her to Top Dawg Entertainment, the home of superstars like Kendrick Lamar. Now Sosi, as her friends call her, stays up until 5 a.m. with top-notch producers in L.A. “I get a little delirious after 4:30, but from that comes cool stuﬀ.” She’s co-written a song with Beyoncé—whom she calls “the perfect person”—and receives nearly as much attention for her hair as for her work. But even that might change. “I’m dyeing it today. It’s just part of a journey.” —BRIANNA DEUTSCH

“I read about Bio-Oil in a magazine, and decided to try some. I had been using two other products, which are both expensive. I felt they made some improvement but then I tried my Bio-Oil and... oh my goodness! I am using it on my arms, hands, chest, neck and complete face. The texture and color of my skin is amazing. I had two blemish scars on my face, which I notice less now, and the color of my skin has evened out – I didn’t realize it was irregular until it changed. I told my husband I’m going to bathe in the stuff!” Robynn Rose

“My grandmother made the most delicious peas on toast when I was growing up,” says Elisa Marshall, one of the owners of Maman (239 Centre St., N.Y.C.; 212-226-0700), who, along with chef Armand Arnal, devised this sophisticated iteration with fresh mint and a dollop of cheese. “I’m French, so we put cheese on everything,” says Arnal with a smile. His instincts are clearly spot-on: Arnal’s other restaurant, La Chassagnette, in the South of France, boasts a Michelin star. SERVES 6 ACTIVE TIME 30 min. TOTAL TIME 30 min.

Cheddar&Chive SOUFFLÉS Whether it’s the tantalizing aromas or the special feeling it gives your guests, there’s something wonderfully celebratory about pulling a gorgeous soufflé out of the oven. Measuring out and chopping all the ingredients at the outset (or a few hours before) makes the process go more smoothly.

SERVES 8 ACTIVE TIME 30 min. TOTAL TIME 1 hour

tbsp unsalted butter, plus more for greasing Finely grated ParmigianoReggiano, for dusting ¹/₃ cup all-purpose flour 1½ cups whole milk ½ lb. sharp white cheddar, shredded (2 cups) 6 large egg yolks ¹/₃ cup chopped chives ¼ tsp cayenne pepper Kosher salt 8 large egg whites

1 Preheat oven to 375°F. 2 Butter eight 10-oz. ramekins and dust with Parmigiano-Reggiano, tapping out the excess. Put ramekins on a large rimmed baking sheet. 3 In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tbsp butter. Add ﬂour, and whisk over moderate heat until thick, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderately low heat, whisking, until thickened and no ﬂoury taste remains, 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in cheddar until melted, then stir in egg yolks, chives, and

cayenne until smooth. Scrape mixture into a large bowl; season with salt, and let cool. 4 In another large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and a pinch of salt at high speed until firm peaks form. Whisk one third of whites into cheese mixture, then gently fold in remaining beaten whites until no streaks remain. 5 Spoon mixture into prepared ramekins. Bake 25–30 minutes, until soufflés are puffed and golden. Serve immediately.

Q &A

LIFE etc.

love the look of a dramatic Q Iarrangement of branches, but where do I begin?

First, consider scale, advises interiors stylist Carlos Mota, who makes covetable homes photo shoot–ready, as illustrated in his new book out this month, A Touch of Style ($75; assouline.com). “Large arrangements in a small room can actually give the illusion of a bigger space,” he says, so reach for leafy greenery of one variety that is at least 2 feet tall. If you select foliage with oversize leaves, you can easily make a big impact with just a stem or two. For multiple branches, he says, “The taller the better.” As for the vase, Mota favors vintage ceramic vessels, which hide any clear glass marbles (used to balance top-heavy clusters).

OCTOBER 2000

“Katie was excited to celebrate Mr. Armani, and she appreciated his craftsmanship,” recalls stylist Ann Caruso, who dressed the Woman in Gold actress for our designer feature “The Maestro.” Since then, Holmes has looked to Armani for everything from ﬁlm premières to her 2006 wedding to Tom Cruise and has even tried her own hand at design. “Giorgio knows what ﬂatters a woman’s body,” said Holmes. “You can’t help but feel sophisticated.”
