Skim the trim, Gibson Girl hair is in:

Vogue reported that modern Victorian hairstyles are trending on Instagram. Hair stylists and style bloggers have been piling their hair into loose top knots, letting flyaways fall where they may. Honestly, this is how my hair looks naturally after skipping a wash or two.

Spring clean your closet for this:

Reformation launched a Victorian collection for spring highlighting loose fitting crop tops and breezy dresses in white linen and cotton. The line includes crew-neck long-sleeve tops with ruffled details, and dresses with tie straps and lace inserts and trim.

Lizzie Borden took an ax…:

Following the fall 2018 film Lizzie starring Chloë Sevigny and Kristen Stewart, new book The Trial of Lizzie Borden by Cara Robertson takes another stab (who else loves puns?) at unraveling the twisted details of one of the most famous murder trials in American history.
