It’s always a good day to wear midi dresses, whether you’re going to the office, picking up the kids from school or going to lunch with friends. With them, whether the neckline is adorned with ruffles or has a pleated skirt, looking pretty and comfortable, besides being the perfect base for creating layered styles (which is very important), is a safe bet. Not for nothing are they a closet staple, and the only rule to follow, unlike mini-dresses, is to make sure that the knees are hidden behind the conservative and elegant line of these garments.

To say that they are a necessity would be a bit daring, but there is no denying that their passage through the fashion trends for this season is not going to pass by stealthily; these midi dresses sweep as absolute protagonists. There is no shortage of options, and with enough designs designed for the colder months, now it’s time to focus on the footwear that best complements them. Perhaps brown boots or Victorian ankle boots with heels are the options that automatically flood the mind; however, the glamorous appeal of the most colourful shoes is the best with which we inaugurate this guide.

Now, as we face the final stretch of the year, the task of finding the on-trend midi dresses for this season that evoke elegance and warmth with style is a job that starts by looking to the runways, and if you don’t know how to start, let the fashion experts inspire you.

Ready to be the most elegant guest at your next dinner party? Tanya Taylor proposes to achieve it with a midi dress with long sleeves, a high neck and a V-neck that transforms the simple into something subtly dramatic. To accompany it and create a flattering visual effect, tone-on-tone tights and heels break the monotony to become the centre of attention. As you can see, the russet-tinged brown and delicate pink make for an idyllic combination that doesn’t stray far from sophisticated.

Power Crystal: Emerald, for opening up your heart to love, luck and abundance.

What a fantastic month is lined up for you, Taurus. Your intense grounded energy meets Scorpio’s equally intense transformational vibe and creates magic. Yes, things take on a new face, yes, everything may feel topsy-turvy at times because of the sheer quantum of things conspiring on the surface and beneath it, too. And yes, you are meant to be right here, right now. Your energy is not that of lack, and hence whatever you touch has the potential to grow multifold—even your loving relationships. Now that you are at your easeful best, treasure the tiny moments that surround you, nourishing your life most impeccably, and you will not believe the doors and hearts this gratitude begins to open in your life.

Power Crystal: Cuprite and Rhodochrosite, to accept where you are and walk through these rites of passage with grace. (Do not apply Cuprite directly onto your skin as it can be toxic)

Stalemate or not, accept it or not, Gem, the cosmos leaves no option for you but to stand up for yourself. Now, while new options, opportunities and ideas await, the cosmos is also bringing in some new contracts and important information for you this month—either in the form of the written word or in the form of a soul contract that feeds your soul. A lot might be on the cards and on your plate suddenly only, a nd while this may feel overwhelming at first, it is only here to help you understand and prioritise what you want from life and why. Notice how you have evolved to accept what your current needs are and then allow yourself and the world to graciously adjust. You can create with ease and flow, but it still needs structure, okay?

Power Crystal: Tiger’s eye for courage and strength to power through life.

Get clear on everyone’s motives, Cancer. This will help you clearly understand and accept where you stand and why. Either someone new enters your life, or you renew yourself, or a relationship revamps itself—either way, freshness and vibrance are waiting to filter through the cracks for you. And while a lot may feel conflicting, and fighting for your time, energy and attention, you must remember that the only option you have is to show up no matter what. You are experiencing some sort of a quantum leap, and while you may feel like you are ready or have been waiting, this version of life you are welcoming will need you to literally warp this time into a capsule and cram what you can in—in terms of your contributions and actions so that you can get up to speed with the Universe’s will. Remember to honour your promises this month, even to yourself.

Cosmic tip: Seek assistance in getting organised and then take the world by storm.

What is life without some glitter and confetti? Capricorn, when you feel sore and cracked open, it may hurt, but could it also be an opportunity to really refill your cup, find your personal sun and allow the bees and butterflies to flock around you, mistaking you for a sweet, fragrant flower? Instead of constantly feeling like you need to be in a fight or flight mode, remember that, dear Capricorn, changes and growth can happen through surrender and flow as well. Accept them and embrace them.

Cosmic tip: Big happy changes are lined up for you.

A cosmic bomb once blew off and scattered some powerful, potent and sacred seeds, all remnants of the stars and cosmic dust, powered by a soul that never dies—You are part of this mix, Aquarius. Now do you realise the magic and probability of you being released into the cosmos and landing where you are safely? Then why do you shoulder the weight of the world as though you are all alone? You are infinitely supported and looked after. Keeping this in mind, will you please just trust yourself once and take that step in a new direction? Your soul is being redirected to a different path—which is aligned and meant to be. So even if slowly, take that step forward.

Cosmic tip: Choose a new direction to experience new results.

If you have been worried about how things will flow and follow through, you need to remember this. The job of a jug is not to produce water; it is to hold it and allow it to be poured whenever needed, and it doesn’t hold back, feeling that it will become empty, because even if it does get a thorough cleaning done, it is always refilled without it having to go look for the source of water by itself. Similarly, Pisces, you are the messenger and the vessel —and yes, human life is a little more complex than the life of a jug, and while you may need to plan certain things, be assured that as you take one step towards sharing what you hold, you will also be replenished in due course. Hold your ground, value your insights, stash away for a rainy day, but also remember to keep sharing.

Cosmic tip: Yes, you already are abundant, and there is no going back.

Modern horror unsettles us because it reflects life as it is: unresolved and unsolvable. It’s become elevated art, yes, but also art that tells the truth. What better examples of this than Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, a movie about systematic racism, intergenerational trauma, art and cultural vampirism, or Zach Cregger’s Weapons, which lays bare childhood isolation, familial trauma and grief? To be human is to wrestle with loss, to have to accept the passage of time, to know pain and grief. Horror shows us this in all its strange and terrible beauty—even when we look at scenes like the gruesome bodily fusion of two codependent partners in Together through splayed fingers.

Once upon a time, forever came neatly packaged in a diamond. Engagement rings today, however, are telling stories in colour, in texture, in shapes that don’t all look the same. Modern brides are choosing rings that reflect personality over protocol. Engagement rings are stepping out of the diamond’s shadow and letting coloured stones, vintage influences and offbeat silhouettes do the talking. These rings don’t speak ‘tradition’, they hum ‘individuality’ and remind us that there’s no single version of happily ever after.

Because maybe your idea of romance isn’t a diamond at all. Maybe it’s an emerald with character, a sapphire with a bit of mood, a Polki that nods to heritage or a pearl that feels timeless.

Here’s your guide to saying yes, with a little more imagination and a lot more individuality.

This one’s a showstopper, a constellation of Colombian emeralds, rubies and diamonds set with precision that only generations of craftsmanship can deliver. The deep green of the emerald centres the design.

Halloween, or the season of horror movies, is upon us. The nights are longer, the air is cooler and everyone’s in the mood to test their limits with a good scare. This year, we’ve curated a list of 66 of the most compelling horror films. From cult classics to recent releases, spanning slashers, psychological thrillers, body horror and tales of the supernatural, the selection includes Indian gems like Tumbbad and Bramayugam, foreign masterpieces such as The Wailing and Onibaba and critically acclaimed horror movies like Get Out and The Substance. Grab your popcorn, call friends, siblings, partners (or brave it alone, if you dare) and prepare to be terrified.

Bring Her Back (2025)

Step-siblings Andy and Piper find themselves in the middle of their foster mother’s desperate attempt to supernaturally resurrect her dead daughter leading to a harrowing spiral of grief, guilt and trauma.

Nosferatu (2024)

However, it’s still possible for more cast members to be added. Fans are still rooting for a love interest for Maya Hawke’s character Robin—but she’s not feeling too excited about it. ICYMI: season four ended with Hawke’s character, Robin Buckley, finally making a move on her crush, Hawkins High’s resident clarinetist Vickie over PB&J sandwiches. Though nothing was made explicit, the Duffer Bros were probably laying the ground for a blossoming romance in the final season of the show, meaning Robin could officially get a girlfriend soon. However, there is a small caveat: Hawke is not entirely sold.

“I feel mixed about it,” the actor told Yahoo! Entertainment in June 2023 about the possibility of having an on-screen GF for Robin. “I feel like there’s that’s both a great thing, and I also love characters where their love life is not the centre of their existence.”

Instead of focusing on Robin’s purely romantic life, Hawke would love to keep spotlighting and centring friendship as part of her character’s arc, particularly her relationship with Joe Keery’s Steve Harrington. “That friendship with Steve is so special,” Hawke admitted. “Friendships have been carrying me through my life, and I think they’re really important, and they deserve their time.”

How will Stranger Things end?

Prior to filming the season, the Duffer Brothers said they were not entirely sure what this last season would look like, but they knew for sure how it would end. “It’s like that lighthouse blinking in the distance… while a lot of season 5 is actually pretty blurry, the last 30 minutes of it are pretty clear in our heads,” said Ross. “So if we can make the journey entertaining, I think that we have an end that will hopefully satisfy. You can’t satisfy everyone, but the hope is that it’s something that feels right for this story.”

The creative duo previously told The Wrap that top dogs at Netflix shed real tears once they shared their ideas for the arc of season 5. “I saw executives crying who I’ve never seen cry before, and it was wild,” they shared. And they are not the only ones who cried.

“The end of this episode when we were reading it—just us reading it—about halfway through, people started crying,” David Harbour (Hopper) shared. “Then about the last 20 minutes, it was just uncontrollably crying, waves of different people. Noah Schnapp being my favourite.”

Getting married in the winter looks magical. It`s even more magical due to the cool air, vibrant lights, and cozy places.  But the climate makes your big day more charming; however, it`s difficult to live in the heat without giving up.

To make sure that your winter wedding ceremony is visually and aurally stunning, it’s important that you dress effectively for the occasion. The use of these sophisticated, warm, and discreet textiles will make sure that you look excellent in the course of everything of the night, no matter whether or not you’re the bride, the groom or a guest.

However, what happens when you have your dream dress and are all set to rock the wedding ceremony? Wait, it is truly cold outside! Doesn’t it appear bad?

Picking the proper fabric for your wedding outfits are crucial due to these things:

• Comfort: You do not need to be cold and unhappy for your big day (or night). Satin and silk garments clearly keep you warm.

• Style: Rich, fancy fabrics that fit the holiday spirit are needed for winter weddings. Feel like you`re in a royal palace when you wear velvet, silks that sparkle, or heavy brocades.

• Usefulness: When it is cold, chiffon and silk, which might be too thin, might not work. Things you use should last a long time and keep you warm while it is cold outside.

Whether you’re the bride or simply going to the wedding ceremony, pay close attention to what your winter wedding ceremony outfits are made from. You can make a frightening occasion more comfortable and stylish in order that humans will consider it.

Let’s talk about some important things to keep in mind when shopping for your winter wedding clothes before we get into the best fabrics:

• Location: Is the wedding going to be inside or outside? If the occasion is outside, you may need to wear multiple outfits to maintain heat.

• The time of Day: As you select your winter wedding ceremony dress, keep in mind that the occasion will probably take place at night or in the evening, while it will likely be cooler.

• Your Role: Brides and grooms may choose thicker fabrics than guests because they will be in the spotlight for a longer time.

• Style of Life: Remember to be yourself! Choose a vibrant color in shape to go along with a gem-tone silk skirt. If you need to keep things simple, a silk saree is probably a higher preference for your winter wedding ceremony dress.

Let us talk about clothes now! Here are some of the most famous and useful wedding clothes for winter:

1. Elegant Velvet: The Traditional Fabric for Winter Weddings

Is there anything more fancy than velvet? It’s a winter wedding must-have to have this soft cloth. Here’s why silk is great for winter wedding clothes:

• It keeps you warm naturally, making it great for cold weather.
• There are “royal wedding ceremony vibes” when you touch velvet due to the fact that it’s far smoother and shinier.
• Deep jewel tones like emerald green, ruby red, and sapphire blue appear stunning on silk.
• Veiled outfits, skirts, sewn clothes, and more are all made from velvet.

Women can discover a stunning royal silk lehenga on the Indian Wedding Saree. In the winter, wedding guests usually have to wear a silk saree or lehenga in a deep, darkish color. You`re ready to go along with those large earrings.

2. Silk: The Most Luxurious Fabric for Winter Wedding Dresses

Another winter wedding outfit fave? Silk! This classic fabric has a natural luster, drape, and insulation. Why go “I do” to silk:

• Silk is lightweight and warm, making long-term wear comfortable.
• Its natural sheen looks great under holiday lighting.
• Silk is lighter than velvet, making it appropriate for winter daytime weddings.
• Silk lehengas, sarees, embroidered suits and fusion attire abound.

Silk sarees in emerald or royal green make for lovely winter bridal attire. Intricate zari paintings and wealthy contrast borders beautify our silk sarees, making them a super choice for a wintry wedding.

Silk lehengas are also ideal for winter weddings. Look for bridal winter dresses with long- or full-sleeved blouses for warmth. The matching stole or dupatta to cover your shoulders when it gets cold is essential!

Consideration for Fabrics Other Than Velvet and Silk

Winter weddings are characterized by velvet and silk, but don’t forget these wonderful fabrics:

1. Brocade

This hefty, baroque fabric has beautiful metallic thread weaving. Warm, regal, and ideal for bridal lehengas.

2. Raw Silk

Matte tussar silk is warm and rustic-chic. Perfect for winter mehendi or haldi.

3. Wool

For the warmest winter wedding dress, use a wool-blend. A wool-silk shawl or stole adds coziness.

4. Velvet-Silk Blends

Not sure between velvet and silk? Combine velvet with silk for the finest of both worlds! Very warm, luxurious, and adaptable.
