Trooping The Colour Has Been Cancelled Due to COVID-19

Every year, the British royal family gathers for the spectacular parade known as Trooping The Colour. The event is held to celebrate the Queen’s birthday with the public, as well as members of the royal family. However, due to the evolving coronavirus pandemic, this year’s event – scheduled for June 13 – is the latest to be cancelled on the royals’ schedules.

Buckingham Palace confirmed the news in a statement, writing, “In line with government advice, it has been agreed that the Queen’s birthday parade, also known as Trooping the Colour, will not go ahead in its traditional form. A number of other options are being considered, in line with relevant guidance.”

Sadly, this means we won’t get to see the royal family gather on Buckingham Palace’s balcony to watch the flyover as in previous years.

It is not yet known what an alternate celebration would look like at this stage, though it will likely be something digital. It is only the second time in the parade’s history that it has been cancelled – in 1955 it was called off due to the national rail strike.

The news comes amidst a busy weekend of royal news as representatives for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle confirmed that they have left Canada and are now residing in the US. Additionally, Clarence House reported that Prince Charles is now out of self-isolation after testing positive for coronavirus last week.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
