Every day, we put out into the world a version of how we want to be seen — and, of course, we’re always misunderstood. Each week in our “Judgments” photo project, we’re asking strangers on the streets of New York City to size each other up. Jane (above) GUESSES“She seems happy. Maybe she’s retired, and […]
You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need. This week, we unearthed a ton of Mother’s Day gifts […]
“Here’s my Mother’s Day gift early,” one commenter wrote. Another wrote: “This man is like wine … the older the better.” The response to a single photo of Keanu Reeves posted to the New York Magazine Instagram account elicited hundreds of extremely horny responses.

Diptyque, the French scent brand that’s famous for its very bougie bougies, took a trip to Oregon. In the Cascade Mountains, the brand, working with perfume company Firmenich, came across a hybrid type of mint called Cascade Mint. It’s mint with an animalistic edge: more green and grungy-smelling than the kind you find in mint […]
Few things fill me with a greater sense of dread than getting a message from a co-worker that says: The greeting — short, blunt — makes me imagine that the other person is taking a deep, weary sigh before delivering a piece of awful news. I’ve made a terrible mistake in one of my stories, […]
On Thursday night, Comme des Garçons fashion designer Rei Kawakubo made a rare public appearance at the Noguchi Museum in New York City wearing an all-black outfit, sunglasses, and black Solomon sneakers.
