Blake Lively Says She's An 'Old School Devotee' To This Retro Hair Tool
Blake Lively's beauty credentials are nothing short of iconic. Widely hailed as the unofficial poster girl of the Met Gala, the actress is well known for her show-stopping glamour - she's all luminous skin, feathery lashes and defined, pillowy lips. It's her hair though - an artfully tousled mass of honey blonde curls- that remains a consistent feature on Pinterest boards the world over. Long, thick and gloriously lustrous, it came as no surprise when Lively launched of her own brand, Blake Brown, last year. Sadly, those on UK soil were left wanting, with the products debuting exclusively in the US. But alas! All hope is not lost. Taking to Instagram, Lively recently revealed one of the tools behind her enviable locks- and it's one we can finally get our hands on. In a candid hair tutorial, she demonstrated how she uses the BaByliss Thermo-Ceramic Rollers, £60, crediting the heated set as a key part of her styling routine. 'I'm an old school devotee to hot rollers and mousse like my mama,' her caption read. And the results? Well, they speak for themselves. 1. BaByliss Thermo-Ceramic Rollers What Babyliss says: Achieve voluminous curls and waves with the BaByliss Thermo-ceramic roller set. The salon-inspired hair styling kit features 20 ceramic-infused soft-touch rollers, equipped with an array of handy clips and pins for extra grip and comfort.' What we know: Curls don't stay? These heated rollers could be just the ticket. While the colour-way favoured by Lively is only available in America, trust out when we say these are just as good. Promoting a long-lasting hold, the rollers create high-definition curls full of body and bounce - just look to Lively's hair for proof. Rachael Martin, beauty director says: 'I've had a set of BaByliss rollers tucked away at home for the past year, and to be perfectly honest, they've mostly been gathering dust. Clearly, I'm not immune to the influence of Blake Lively's impossibly bouncy hair so, inspired by her recent tutorial, I decided to bring mine out of retirement. And I'm so glad I did. After a rather chaotic start (working out which direction to roll each section is an art), I eventually found my rhythm. Ten minutes later- and after dousing with a generous spritz of hairspray- I removed the rollers. The big reveal? Far from a let down, I had gorgeously full-bodied curls with serious lift at the root. Genuinely, the levels of bounce and volume could genuinely rival a professional blow-dry. Consider me an official convert.' Pros 20 rollers - great for thick hair 3 sizes, perfect for different finishes. Cons Can be tricky to get used to initially 'There are two things going on here,' says Grazia's beauty panellist and global hairstylist Tom Smith. 'Firstly, there's the broader trend of prioritising hair health more than ever. And secondly, Blake has pledged her loyalty to the return of that bombshell glamour.' Heated rollers are making a comeback for good reason. 'They use a gentler, more diffused heat compared to straighteners or curling irons,' explains Smith. 'The warmth tends to disperse more gradually through the hair, making them a great option for those looking to minimise heat damage.' And the key to getting it just right? 'Make sure the rollers are warm when you put them in, and leave them in until your hair is completely cool. That's what sets the shape and helps it last.' As for that elusive 'oomph'? 'It's all about creating lift at the roots and a luxurious bounce. Once it's all brushed through, you get that signature voluminous effect with a springiness that makes hair look and feel healthy.' For maximum impact, Tom recommends applying the rollers in horizontal sections. 'This technique helps shrink the hair upwards and creates real root volume. You can even support the style with a light hair net on top while it sets- it helps keep everything in place without flattening the shape.' Rachael Martin, beauty director says: 'I've had a set of BaByliss rollers tucked away at home for the past year, and to be perfectly honest, they've mostly been gathering dust. Clearly, I'm also not immune to the influence of Blake Lively's impossibly bouncy hair so, inspired by her recent tutorial, I decided to bring mine out of retirement. And I'm so glad I did.

Genuinely, the levels of bounce and volume could genuinely rival a professional blow-dry. Consider me an official convert.' If you're after Lively-level bounce and body, it might just be time to revisit the not-so-humble heated roller. Rachael Martin is Grazia's Beauty Director.

Inside Himesh Reshammiya's Rs 129 crore luxurious Mumbai home, where he lives with second wife Sonia Kapoor, sea views, plush decor and more
He's the man behind some of the catchiest tracks in Bollywood, a cap-wearing hit machine whose voice once echoed in every auto and club. But while his singing career flourished, Himesh's acting career couldn't quite hit the high notes. Off the stage, his personal life saw its turns; his first marriage with Komal ended in 2016 after 22 years. They have a son named Swayam. In 2018, Himesh married TV actress Sonia Kapoor. His Net Worth? Despite the ups and downs in showbiz, Himesh's bank account sings a different tune. As per reports, his net worth stands at a whopping Rs 129 crore. And you can see every bit of that in the Mumbai home he shares with Sonia. Where does he live now? Himesh lives in a lavish apartment in Oberoi Sky Heights, Lokhandwala. Recently, Farah Khan's YouTube vlog gave fans a peek inside the singer's classy residence. The home begins with an elegant Areca palm at the entrance, setting the tone for what lies ahead. What's the vibe inside? Think white walls, pastel sofas, multicoloured cushions, and golden décor that adds just the right amount of bling. The lounge isn't just spacious, it screams luxury with different cosy seating setups, including a bold, round red sofa that takes centre stage. Dining and kitchen area A six-seater dining table near glass windows makes the area perfect for cosy meals. The kitchen is a cheerful blend of white and yellow, a rare combo, and even has its dining nook with floral wallpaper and chic design. The wooden staircase that cuts through the home like a designer spiral is pure Pinterest material. Wooden doors, French windows, and smart roller blinds elevate the aesthetic. Not to forget, there's a sea-facing terrace, dotted with plants, lights, and comfy seating, offering a perfect spot for dreamy Mumbai sunsets. As Himesh celebrates his 52nd birthday, his home tour is a reminder that while careers evolve, style and good taste never fade.

The Major Wedding-Planning Trends Set to Take Over
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Whether you've had a curated Pinterest board since middle school or you're newly engaged, there's no question that the task of planning a wedding is a daunting one, to say the least. With so many decisions to be made, both big and small, and no shortage of inspiration across the internet, it can feel overwhelming to figure out where to even begin. As such, we're taking the opportunity to report on the biggest trends happening in the wedding and event planning space right now, naturally filtered through our fashion-person perspective. We've already reported on the biggest bridal fashion trends to know for 2026 brides, but now we're taking it further and diving into everything beyond the dress. From the trending font that's featured on the coolest invitations to the floral arrangements that are art pieces in and of themselves, these are all the elements of a wedding weekend that are taking over right now. And while the big day remains at the heart of it all, multiday celebrations don't appear to be slowing down anytime soon. In fact, wedding and event planner Beth Helmstetter shared that she sees couples continuing to host weekend-long celebrations but focusing on regions and experiences that highlight who they are and what they love as a couple. 'Many couples are leaning into more casual and less produced celebrations that encourage guests to have more fun and lean into intimacy over formality,' she explained. Destination or not, it's all about the unexpected and unique when it comes to venues. Mindy Weiss, who planned both Demi Lovato's and Hailee Steinfeld's respective nuptials this year, shared that several clients want to find a location where their event can spread out for several days from Thursday through Sunday. 'This offers a guest experience that they're hoping their loved ones have never had before. It could include golf tournaments, spa experiences, game days, pool parties, cooking classes, and cocktail parties. We're not just planning a wedding anymore,' she insisted. Weddings in 2026 are set to become 360-degree experiences beginning from the arrival of the custom invitations to the gifts guests part with and every detail in between. There's no question that destination weddings are growing more popular every year, but in 2026, couples looking to tie the knot abroad are putting renewed emphasis on locales that are rich in authentic and local charm and venues that are striking and cinematic. Venues that are immersed in nature with dramatic backdrops and striking architecture are quickly becoming the must-haves, whether that be the limestone quarry in Menorca that's hosted weddings and fashion brand events alike or historic fincas like Sa Pedrissa in Mallorca with its unspoiled views of the coastline. For exact locations, traditional Italian destinations like Tuscany will always be that girl, but Fora adviser Katherine Flynn noted that Mallorca, Puglia, and Todos Santos are quickly rising as top wedding destinations, too, which she says is thanks to their natural beauty, authentic charm, and boutique feel. 'These places fit perfectly with the trend of turning weddings into multiday getaways for friends and family,' she continued. 'Guests want sunset dinners, local wine, and unique experiences. In Puglia, Masseria San Domenico is a perfect example of the region's rustic elegance with historic farmhouses surrounded by olive groves and incredible local cuisine.' The five-star hotel hosted an exclusive trip for earlier this summer, which highlights how close the fashion and wedding event worlds are tied. While venues are striking and dramatic on the one hand, they're also rustic and familiar on the other. The next big wedding venue trend? Ranches. 'Remote and rugged is the new romantic,' insisted Sunna Yassin and Mollie Jones Hennes, principals of Bash Please. The pair are the planners behind Alex Cooper's highly buzzed-about wedding last year and shared that they're seeing a strong draw toward private ranches, wineries, and architectural compounds that feel completely off-grid. Weiss echoed this sentiment, sharing that she's seeing mountainous regions like Big Sky, Montana, and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, gaining more and more popularity. Hosting multiday celebrations in these places means couples can plan a number of guest excursions, including horseback riding and custom cowboy hat bars. With couples putting intimate and meaningful celebrations ahead of all-out productions, it makes sense that we'd see a resurgence of at-home weddings. Though, we're not necessarily talking simply backyard affairs. 'Whether it's a ranch tucked into the foothills of Jackson Hole or a private villa in the South of France, hosting at 'home' has never felt more relevant,' shared Jesse Tombs, owner and creative director of Jesse Tombs. 'Home settings carry stories, and there's an unmatched intimacy in celebrating surrounded by the landscapes that have meaning. There's a richness in that kind of authenticity, where every view has history and heart for all of your loved ones in attendance.' There's one buzzword in wedding décor right now, and it's draping. 'Drapery is huge for 2026,' Weiss insisted. 'So many of my clients want dripping, scrunched, and unkempt elegance when it comes to draping.' As for how we can see it being used as a décor choice, Yassin and Jones explained that they expect to see sheer drapery used in unexpected ways: 'Framing nature instead of hiding it, adding height without weight. Clients want spaces that feel cinematic but still breathable.' This is one trend that feels in step with the 1950s nostalgia that we're seeing play out in bridal fashion right now, too. Drapery is an element that brings a sense of luxury and a timelessness that's still fluid and unfussy and, according to Helmstetter, has evolved into a design feature in its own right. 'We're seeing it installed in unexpected places, ceiling treatments that dip low over dining tables and become part of the tablescape, and even bars or cake tables layered in luxurious fabric to create a moment that feels just as intentional as what they're displaying. It's no longer just functional—it's a focal point.' Personality-first elements are winning when it comes to 2026 weddings, and couples want every décor detail to be intentional and deeply personal. For Tombs, that means that 'every detail should feel like it was always meant to be there. Think elegant minimalism, wabi-sabi, and a sense of purpose behind every fork and fabric selection.' One way to inject some personality is through intentional mismatching—flatware, dishware, and even mismatched chairs all bring a sense of uniqueness to a wedding that can't be replicated. View Deal View Deal View Deal There are myriad ways in which couples are creating conversation and connection through the design and décor of their wedding, and opting for handcrafted details and artisanal accents is one way to do so. It's all about vintage or vintage-inspired pieces that tell a story and perhaps carry personal or cultural significance. Retro wrought iron chairs, especially for venues with an outdoor terrace or garden area, are a niche but impactful design choice that can instantly bring a warmth and familiarity to the event. Helmstetter says she's prioritizing these handcrafted details over overly produced moments. 'The goal is to create a space that feels lived-in and a dining table that encourages conversation, connection, and comfort.' View Deal View Deal View Deal Wedding food is no longer only about the food but has become a part of the larger design and aesthetic direction of the event itself. 'The runway is setting the table now, and this trend will be seen in weddings and events around the world,' Tombs said. Abundant tablescapes, color coordination, and hyperlocal produce are all components of the storytelling that wedding catering is doing now. 'Culinary creatives are stepping into the spotlight like never before, often working alongside wedding planners, designers, and art directors to shape the look and feel of events. They're co-curating design, tabletop, food displays, and styling. Think of it as food with a fashion-campaign treatment, styled, storied, and saturated in mood and story. This is also driving new kinds of culinary collabs: Loewe x Laila Gohar [and] Jacquemus x Oursin.' Another design-planning element that mirrors the timelessness and elegance happening in the bridal fashion space is the employment of antiques in the overall décor and, specifically, in the food and beverage offering. Coupe glasses holding everything from champagne to hand-scooped tiramisu, antique trays overflowing with hors d'oeuvres, sterling silver flatware—these are just a few of the accents that bring a sense of nostalgia for a golden age to wedding design. View Deal View Deal View Deal One detail that is carrying on from our 2024 wedding planning reporting is the trend of the large-format cake. No longer is the default wedding cake design one with multiple tiers that tower ever higher. Now, we're seeing a wave of oversize wedding tarts covered in fresh berries that are becoming the new go-to dessert choice to both cut as a couple and serve to guests. The oversize format feels much more familial and is an especially popular choice for intimate gatherings. View Deal View Deal View Deal More is not always more when it comes to wedding-day florals. Instead, planners want to hit on a much more minimal and directional tone. 'The vibe is more fashion showroom than bridal Pinterest board,' shared Tombs. 'Instead of overworked frilly arrangements, we're loving simplified compositions with one to two floral varieties that act like color blocks in the overall event color palette. Monochrome clusters create visual ease and allow the flowers to function as part of the architecture of the space. It feels modern, elevated, and most importantly, more like a chic party and less like a wedding.' Florals are going minimal, but they're also going maximal—'sometimes in the same weekend,' according to Yassin and Jones. 'Sparse, sculptural arrangements using bold single blooms are gaining traction,' they noted, like the minimalist arrangements described above, 'while others are going for volume and chaos in the best way: overflowing blooms that look like they sprouted overnight. Wild, abundant installs tap into something romantic and uncontained—perfect for nature-forward settings.' In fact, wild and overflowing are two keywords that experts seemed to echo over the course of my conversations. Weiss insisted that this aesthetic is one that will only continue to gain momentum. 'Think actual greens growing up the walls and chandeliers made out of calla lilies. Very art-forward designs,' she added. Timeless glamour is the mood that's leading the direction for cool wedding stationery. 'Our current mood board includes vintage social invitations from the golden era and fashion show invites with sharp, pared-back yet graphic typography,' shared Tombs. 'There's something luxurious about going back to the basics. I'm talking about thick, creamy-buttery paper, deep letterpress printing that leaves a gorgeous impression, spot calligraphy that feels like it came straight from an artist's atelier.' Classic ivory tones and the occasional rich oxblood hue mark the color palette, while bespoke details like wax seals and thick-cut heavyweight letterpress leave an impact on guests from the very beginning. Timeless elegance is going strong in one direction, and joyful, whimsical designs are rearing their heads in another. Traditionally, stationery tends to be low in the hierarchy of design-forward choices, but experts say that wedding invites are just another avenue for couples to inject some personality into their guests' experience. 'Playful, handwritten typography and color-forward palettes are having a moment,' Yassin and Jones confirmed, 'especially when paired with tactile elements like letterpress or hand-dyed paper. The more it feels like a piece of art or a collector's object, the better.' Instead of following one format, the trend is all about personalization. 'Custom fonts, oversize letters, saturated color are all elements of our invitations in 2026,' Weiss added. Personalization continues to be the defining feature of 2025 and 2026 weddings. 'There's a real appetite for design-forward branding,' Yassin and Jones shared. 'Clients want transportive settings, highly curated design moments, and brand-level storytelling—from the first invite to the final farewell.' That could look like anything from bespoke matchbooks to personalized menus to embroidered napkins, but for couples looking to go the extra mile, it goes beyond menus and itineraries. 'We just monogrammed robes for each guest in their hotel rooms,' Weiss shared of one recent couple. In essence, customization is at an all-time high. There will always be a place for traditional guest gifts, but more couples are placing emphasis on experience-driven gifting. 'We're seeing things like custom cowboy hat bars, adventure kits with matching branded gear, personal photos in guest rooms, and bespoke turndown treats that feel deeply personal,' shared Tombs. 'It's less about quantity, more about curation and customization.' This is especially true of weddings where the couple has a personal bond with the destination or surroundings. Experiences and excursions are a way to share that connection with their guests in the hopes of creating memories that last long after the last dance. View Deal View Deal View Deal 'Wedding 'merch' is officially a thing—but only if it feels thoughtful, wearable, and a little unexpected,' Yassin and Jones insisted. For Cooper's wedding, the planners curated an assortment of sweats, hats, and bags that looked more like concert drops than party favors. 'Guests want keepsakes they'll actually use—and post about—long after the weekend ends.' Gifting is another way to create a through line from the aesthetic of the invites all the way to the final tone of these take-home items. Instead of individual gift bags, Weiss noted that some of her couples are taking things up a notch and hosting 'welcome stores,' where guests can choose from several items and make their own gift bags.
