Personal days

While fashion sketches are always looking hot-to-trot across Instagram, self-proclaimed ‘thin-skinned’ and talented illustrator Tyler Feder conjured up some designs that are utterly timeless and being retweeted and shared over and over again. We’re talking about ‘work from home’ fashion.

University students’ eyes will widen at the sweatpants and haphazard top-bun look, while I personally leaned towards Skype conference look comprising the ‘formal up top and casual below’ aesthetic. But a true showstopper was the robe-only look.

Shared over 700 times, Illinois-based Feder’s post is a starkly vivid narrative of the days we take time away from our cubicles and bring work home past the front door, and invites a humorous look at how we can easily fall into one of these groups, too.

When Priya Prakash’s wink went viral, it was only natural she bagged ‘Viral Personality of the Year’ award — how is such a thing measured, anyway? Why does this award exist? Do people not understand the transience of viral content? The young actor posted a photo of receiving an award on her Instagram page. This is for you omarikka and the whole crew of Oru Adaar Love .”

You okay, Kanye?

When Kanye West returned to social media, I grabbed some popcorn, got comfortable and waited for the show to start.

And indeed it did, when the rapper shared some views on loving Trump, Cosby’s ‘innocence’, and how telling people you love them has a stigma. While his belle Kim K said there’s nothing wrong with him, he’s just exercising free speech. We’ll see what the rest of the week holds for ’Ye.
