MTV VMAs 2017: The Best Dressed Celebrities on the Red Carpet
The MTV VMAs red carpet always brings a little shock (Courtney Love crashing Madonna's live interview) and intrigue (Britney Spears's mile-long python flanking her cutoff clad self). However, this year, looks were statuesque or shrunken, and a tad more naughty (hello, Paris Jackson in barely-there Dior) than nice. The youngest best dresser, Millie Bobby Brown, brought the most chic to the carpet in Rodarte, and Nicki Minaj? Well, true to from, she broguht it.

5 Ways to Wear Stylish Tennis Looks Like Serena Williams, Madison Keys, and More
One important fact must be noted ahead of this year's U.S. Open: Tennis uniforms are not made for those who love to experiment with fashion. Traditionally, they are stark and white from head to tow, leaving little room for flair. Despite the simplicity of a tennis outfit, some of the all-star American female players have figured out a way to individualize their gear. Take the Williams sisters for example. They've worn pleated denim, embellishments, and firing while winning world championships. Others, like Madison Keys and Christina McHale, have embraced bold colors like neon and pastels while ranking in the top sports during tournaments. The game of tennis tends to look prim and proper from the stand, but these women inject a much-needed cool factor on the court. It's a lesson in sartorial risk-taking that translates well to everyday life. During the Open in the coming days, take note of the American women dressed to win and try on these five looks above inspired by their daring, game-ready style.

Decorating Rules to Live by in Your 20s, 30s, and Beyond
With age comes a clear sense of style. This is true with interior decor just as it is with fashion. The furnishings and accessories that marked your 20s-dorm holdovers, Ikea everything and those trendy throw pillows-will certainly evolve as your taste (and budget) transitions in your 30s, 40s, and beyond. Of course, design is all about living with what you love, but as your style changes, it's helpful to take some advice from the pros to hear. Here, Victoria Hagan, Ron Woodson, and Jean Liu share the top rules to abide by for a well-decorated home in every decade.

Rafael Nadal Has His Eyes Set on the U.S. Open
Rafael Nadal walks into this 137th edition of the U.S. Open not only as the top seed but, as of last Monday, as the freshly minted number one ranked man in the world. This is the fourth time he's held the top spot and almost nine years after his inaugural stint. The particular manner in which Nadal has come into this position amounts to a certain amount of luck (on his part) and bad fortune (Andy Murray, Stan Wawrinka, Novak Djokovic, and Roger Federer have each been suffering from injuries lately, with Wawrinka and Djokovic finished for the season) for others.

To Host a Better BBQ, Do This: Chris Benz Shares His Best End of Summer Party Tips
On a recent Sunday afternoon in Brooklyn, a small group dressed in colorful prints and stripes sipped John Dalys from paper straws in the foliage-filled backyard of a brownstone in the Bed-Stuy neighborhood of Brooklyn. On the grill, lobster tails sizzled, while laughter trickled out the French doors that led to the kitchen. A few feet away, Chris Benz, creative director at Bill Blass and host for the afternoon, tended the barbecue in a wide-brimmed hat and crisp blue apron, looking every bit the grill pro as he flipped skewers of new potatoes and chatted with the friends who gathered round to watch. Fragrant charcoal smoke blew softly around the yard, while Benz's dog lazed beneath a lounge chair nearby. It was about as idyllic a summer afternoon in New York City as one can hope to get.
