Woman Hand-Crafts a Mid-Century Modern Style Cardboard House for Her Two Cats

Gambar
If you have a cat, you know that they're obsessed with cardboard boxes. While watching her two feline friends—Huckleberry and Floyd—play inside an old package, cat mom and graphic designer Gentry Sanders was struck with an idea. Armed with old boxes and creativity, she decided to build them a mid-century cardboard cat house. Called Mid Century Meow-nor, the stylish kitty abode was crafted from a Hello Fresh delivery box and an Amazon box. Sanders spent an entire weekend creating it, but Huckleberry and Floyd were on site to make sure it was done right. "I can't do anything in my house without them being involved in it," Sanders reveals. "They loved the cutting of the cardboard because they got to lay on it and chew it. Surprisingly, they left me alone when I painted but I purposefully planned that during their afternoon nap time." Featuring angular roofs, asymmetrical details, and large windows, Sanders' cardboard creation would surely please the lik

Law and Order: SVU ’s Olivia Benson Has Been a Stealth Style Icon For Years

Law and Order: SVU is what you watch when there's nothing else left. While at home during COVID-19, I've once again fallen into the infinite spiral of SVU, and on this particular rewatch, I've noticed a new, compelling character: the wardrobe styling. There is former squad member Elliot Stabler, played by Christopher Meloni, the hot-headed, buff, tatted detective-father in almost cringey loud, but endearingly sexy, bold print ties. There's Fin Tutuola, played by the rapper Ice-T, who lives in tracksuits and daddy-tastic leather coats. And of course, there is Olivia Benson, played by the multilingual actress Mariska Hargitay, whose wardrobe you may have never noticed, but you should on your next rewatch. Benson's pantsuits have been a stealth style standout for more than 20 years. They have a whiff of minimalist workwear, and are not unlike the sleek pantsuits dotting editorials in late-'90s Vogue. Plus, Benson puts them into action. She runs after perverts in th

Sign up here to get it delivered to your inbox.] In January, the coronavirus crisis in Wuhan, China, was desperate. The virus had hit its peak and sick patients filled the wards while more lined up in the cold waiting for treatment. Four hundred miles away in Shanghai, Sakura Chan, a 29-year-old fashion designer, was struck by images from Wuhan: the chapped hands of medical workers, reddened from dehydrating sanitizers and soap, and the deep impressions and blisters that goggles and N-95 masks left on their faces. Some were online, calling for better personal protective equipment and supplies. "We looked at the photos and tried to guess what they would need," Ms. Chan said. And when she couldn't find masks to donate, she and a team of about 20 volunteers sent sanitary pads to medics in Wuhan and other cities in Hubei Province that had been placed under lockdown.
