Ariana Grande Wears White Lace Gloves . . . to Drink Wine?

Ariana Grande is known to enjoy a quirky trend. Just a week ago, she took the "ugly" balloon heels from Loewe out for a spin, and more recently, she's been spotted around New York City rocking statement-making gloves. On Nov. 2, the singer shared a photo dump of her latest outings, which included supporting rumored boyfriend Ethan Slater at his "Spamalot" performance and hanging out with friends like Liz Gillies. While previewing Slater's Broadway show on Oct. 31, Grande wore an oversize, chocolate brown coat with white lace gloves from The Row.

Grande looked adorable, as usual, but we have to ask: what are those gloves for, exactly? Casually sporting a $990 price tag, the hand-crocheted gloves are of short length, with a playful, scalloped trim at the cuffs. Since they're netted and have holes throughout, and don't even extend to the forearms, it's obvious they don't serve the accessory's usual purpose: warmth and protection. Its function is even more confusing upon examining the photos. She holds a glass of red wine in one, so perhaps they're offering a no-slip grip. But in another, she's blowing a kiss from her gloved hand. The delicate, vintage-style gloves are likely a sartorial choice, and honestly, perfectly fitting for her flirty style.

Opera gloves had a big moment in 2020, and their rise continued throughout the return to red carpets and award shows in the years following. While its popularity has dwindled since, Grande was actually a glove girl long before the trend and has continued to embrace the look.

She's worn gloves dating back to her 2015 world tour, where she was equipped with high-tech gloves from MiMU that changed her voice. Since then, she's switched over to the fancier statement glove. Grande has reached for a variety of opera gloves for award shows like the 2020 Grammys, appearances on "The Voice," and music videos alike. Now, she's incorporating the accessory into her everyday wardrobe.

Scroll through her photos ahead to see how she pulled off the fun trend.

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...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
