After a lengthy six-month hiatus brought on by simultaneous writer and actor strikes our Ones to Watch portfolio is back, baby! We couldnt be more thrilled because nothing pleases us quite like getting to shine a light on outstanding performances and keeping you in the know on the on-the-rise talent shaking up the industry. Award season has been the talk of Hollywood for the last four weeks, but theres plenty of newness to be excited about too. For winter, weve taken stock of whats happening on screens big and small as well as onstage and selected six fantastic actresses to keep on your radar for 2024 and beyond. Like so many of Hollywood's A-listers, Jennifer Connelly was spotted at the airport after making the rounds at the Sundance Film Festival this past weekend. The actress, who captivated audiences this summer with her role in Top Gun: Maverick, was on site to receive the IMDb "Fan Favorite STARmeter Award, as well as promote her latest film, Bad Behaviour.After the weekend's festivities, Connelly headed off to the airport looking both comfortable and cozy in an oversize gray wool winter coat paired with black leggings, a beanie, and a pair of OG Moon Boots. And although leggings can be hit or miss when it comes to travel days, we have to admit Connelly nailed this travel-day attire. Given the inherent craziness this time of year, what to Dior Handbags Outlet wear for holiday travel is usually a massive afterthought for me at least. And the idea of packing days before the holidays, approximately December 20, is stressful in every sense of the word. So I'm doing things differently this year or at least helping anyone who's in the same boat do things differently, as I'm staying in town.This year, I'm planning ahead when it comes to holiday season outfits and have come across quite a few ideas on my Instagram diorbagssales.com feed that would be perfect for in-transit and for wearing upon arrival at your destination. But something to do with the material changed in the last year, resulting in a renaissance of sorts for all things lace just in time for fall. If you ask me, its success lies in designers finally embracing the romance and sexiness of lace and really steering clear of anything overly sleepwear-like. Pieces by labels like Saint Laurent, Alaïa, Khaite, and Beaufille are styled with pencil skirts, tailored outerwear, and sleek trousers and constructed with bold collars, velvet touches, and billowy sleeves. Twenty twenty-three has been a wild and crazy ride in the fashion industry, with creative directors coming and going, designers completely revamping their brands, and finally, some fresh-feeling trends debuting on the runways. New avenues of inspiration have been introduced by way of sports, with Rihanna appearing at the Las Vegas Grand Prix in Gucci, Prada, and Balenciaga; Netflix's Beckham reminding us of every Posh Spice game-day outfit from the '90s and early aughts; and Grace Wales Bonner continuing to bring soccer style to the fashion set through her collaboration with Adidas. And of course, there's the quiet-luxury movement, which single-handedly ushered in a return to simple, wearable style after years of saturated hues, maximum volume, and over-the-top accessories.
