According to the spring/summer 2021 catwalks, it's high time you swapped out your skinnies for a pair of baggy jeans. Gone are the days of low-risers, this autumn is all about loose-fitting boyfriend denim. Chanel, Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton, Fendi and Chloé are just some of the brands that embraced relaxed trousers, and the fashion pack in attendance at the shows dressed accordingly.

Unsurprisingly, '90s fashion fans Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa are already on board with the trend, as is The Crown's Emma Corrin, who was recently snapped admiring her October British Vogue cover on newsstands in a pair of Ganni's louche jeans.

With lockdown 2.0 edging ever closer, see below for 21 pairs of loose-fitting jeans that are worth getting out of your sweatpants for.

These Are The 7 Shoes You Need This Fall

In February, when this fall's selection of footwear was first presented, we had little to no idea how 2020 would play out. For one, we didn't know we'd be spending most of our time inside, making anything with too high a heel or an uncomfortable strap impractical for our daily life. Now that fall's actually here, though, and we've had the chance to (somewhat) adjust to life in a pandemic, we've realized something: our favorite shoes don't have to go untouched — we just have to get creative about the ones we choose and the ways we wear them. Those that made the cut have to check off one of the following two boxes: durability — for the rainy and cold weather — or style — that way, even if they're impractical, they still make you happy, which, these days, is a feat in and of itself. What we're trying to say is that hope is not lost for fall footwear. This fall, there are no surprises in the footwear department. Instead, by our calculations, there are seven pairs of shoes that you need to round out your autumnal collection, most of which probably already exist in your wardrobe. Loafers and cowboy boots are a must in terms of trends — the former being paired with socks and trousers or jeans, while the latter coordinated with a midi skirt and tights. Comfort is of the utmost importance. Meaning: One pair of sneakers must be included, preferably a retro-esque pair that your dad would wear (for instance, a style similar to those showcased at Balenciaga's recent show in Paris or some New Balance 990v5s). Ballet flats for dry days, Wellies for wet ones, and knee-high boots for everything in between. Add in a classic black boot, and voila! You're ready for fall, no matter what it throws at you. Ahead, shop the seven shoe styles you need for fall, all of which will have you falling in love with footwear again.At Refinery29, we're here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.LoafersIf we had to choose just one shoe to invest in this season, it'd have to be a really good pair of loafers. Not only are they one of the biggest trends to hit footwear since cowboy boots arrived in fashion in 2018, but they also work for every season and, for that matter, every outfit. For your first pair, we suggest going simple, with a hint of unexpected, like for instance, Maison Margiela's iteration, which are white and have a collapsible heel, or Telfar's just-launched logo style. Save the platforms and lug soles for once you and loafers are better acquainted. Telfar Black Logo Loafers, $, available at SSENSEG.H. Bass & Co. Whitney Colorblock Weejuns, $, available at G. H. Bass & CoMaison Margiela White Slip-On Loafers, $, available at SSENSEKnee-High BootsFor as long as we can remember, knee-high boots have been our go-to for fall. Sure, they've gone through periods of low popularity — we blame over-the-knee boots for that — but, luckily, they're back where they belong, which is in the front of our closets. Wear them with slim-fitting jeans or baggy ones, mini skirts or maxis, and every type of dress under the sun — but really, no matter what you wear them with, knee-high boots will always look good. Miista Anahera Black Florentique Leather Tall Boot, $, available at MiistaZara Low-Heeled Leather Tall Boots, $, available at Zara& Other Stories Square Toe Knee High Leather Boots, $, available at & Other StoriesCowboy BootsTwo years ago, if you'd have asked us if the just-risen cowboy boot trend would still be going strong, we'd have scoffed at you in disbelief. And yet, countless one-off footwear fads and a pandemic later, and cowboy boots have leveled up, now firmly in the world of classic staples. Ganni High Texas Boots, $, available at GanniThe Source Unknown Vegan Suede Western Boots, Dark Brown, $, available at The Source UnknownMango Leather Boots With Tall Leg, $, available at MangoWellington BootsIn the U.K., Wellies are a well-known staple in most everyone's fall wardrobe. In the States, though, the often knee-high rain boots aren't quite so overwhelmingly popular. That is, until now. Today, lug-sole knee-highs and Chelsea boots in rubber and other waterproof materials are as much a fashion trend as they are a wet-weather essential. Don't believe us?

This season, we're continuing with the dad trend, but taking it down a notch from previous styles, which often featured platform soles or super bright colors. Instead, we're mellowing out our sneaker collection, opting for more neutral, sporty shades of gray, white, and navy. New Balance Off-White Made In US 990v5 Sneakers, $, available at SSENSELoewe Ballet Runner Leather And Suede Trainers, $, available at Matches FashionReebok Club C Revenge Sneaker, $, available at Urban OutfittersBlack BootThat's it. That's the caption. Not really, but it does go without saying that every fall wardrobe needs at least one pair of simple, probably heeled, black boots. This season, we've grown a liking for slim, sock-like boots in materials like leather or satin, as they're elevated and classic, yet still comfortable. That, or a super-structured boot that can withstand the elements with ease.Pêche Bia, $, available at PêcheSunni Sunni Reese Square Toe Boot, $, available at Sunni SunniNomasei Aria Ankle Boots in Black Stretch Satin, $, available at NomaseiBallet FlatsIn the past, ballet flats have often aired on the youthful side. Thanks to Catherine Holstein, creative director of NY-based brand Khaite, as of summer 2020, they are now all grown up, and as much a shoe staple as black boots or strappy sandals. And while they're not always the most practical option for fall weather, when the sun does come out, flats (maybe with socks) are a welcome alternative. Khaite The Ashland Ballet Flat, $, available at khaiteMansur Gavriel Dream Ballerina, $, available at Mansur GavrielSchutz Arissa Square Toe Ballet Flat, $, available at NordstromLike what you see?

Play-Doh for adults smells like smoked meat, overpriced lattes, mom jeans - CNET

Posted: 03 Nov 2020 01:10 PM PST

Meat-scented Play-Doh is a thing now, because it's 2020 and anything goes.

Instagram

This is not your childhood Play-Doh. Hasbro, the toy company behind the familiar modeling compound, is selling a new line of the product, with grown-up scents -- and some of them sound rather stinky. But the childhood-meets-maturity product is already sold out on Amazon.

The adult-scented Play-Doh is sold in a six-pack, with each can offering a different color and scent.

"Call us scent o' mental, but parenting has never smelled better," a representative for Hasbro wrote on an Instagram post introducing the product.

"Overpriced Latte" smells like coffee, "Mom Jeans" like "clean denim," "Grill King" smells like smoked meats, "Dad Sneakers" like rubber, "Spa Day" has a floral scent, and "Lord of the Lawn" smells like fresh-cut grass. Not sure a meat-scented Play-Doh was ever going to smell good no matter what chemicals were thrown into the mix, but hey, it might make a fun gag gift for someone who never quite outgrew the fun of squishing clay around.

Amazon doesn't list a price for the multipack, but ComicBook.com points out that it can be preordered for $10.99 at Entertainment Earth.

The original smell of Play-Doh (kinda salty, kinda reminiscent of your kindergarten classroom) is so beloved that it's even sold as a cologne spray by fragrance-maker Demeter.

Wrangler is selling its jeans from the rodeo to Nordstrom to drive price and demand - MarketWatch

Kontoor Brands is being selective about distribution in an effort to grow its denim brands

Wrangler/Kontoor

The Wrangler brand of denim is heading to the Wrangler National Rodeo Finals in Arlington, TX in December and can also be found at Nordstrom Inc. JWN, +9.68% through the recent launch of the Wrangler by Fred Segal Collection.

Selling in this wide variety of venues is part of a business development strategy focused on innovation and driving higher pricing.

Kontoor Brands Inc. KTB, +2.23% is using a number of strategic initiatives to drive sales of both the Wrangler and Lee brands. Part of that is getting out of unsuccessful wholesale channels while maximizing on what the company calls "best-in-class retailers" like Walmart Inc. WMT, +1.69%, Amazon.com Inc. AMZN, +1.46% and Target Corp. TGT, +1.51% that have remained open during the coronavirus pandemic and demonstrate strong performance.

But the company is also investing in innovations like better fit and more durable materials in order to create product that Chief Executive Scott Baxter says has "a greater emphasis on value and premium specialty."

"And across channels we know that innovation can support elevated pricing as we've seen in the recent Wrangler by Fred Segal collection at Nordstrom; the emerging Wrangler ATG line in outdoor specialty; and the launch of our Lee MVP and legendary programs with Kohl's," Baxter said on the company's recent earnings call, according to a FactSet transcript.

Kontoor, the denim-focused spinoff of VF Corp. VFC, +2.87%, reported third-quarter earnings that beat expectations and gave upbeat guidance for the most recent quarter.  Moreover, Kontoor declared a quarterly dividend of 40 cents per shares payable on Dec. 18 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Dec. 10.

Kontoor shares have rallied, up more than 83% over the past three months, though the stock is down 14.8% for the year to date. The SPDR S&P Retail ETF XRT, +3.53% is up 13.5% for 2020 to date, and the benchmark S&P 500 index SPX, +1.77% has gained 4.6% for the period.

For the rodeo event, Kontoor has launched a full-price pop-up store at the Fort Worth Stockyards that includes laser customization onsite. Specialty retailers focused on the Western lifestyle are also a target.

The company is also launching Wrangler collaborations with the Adult Swim channel show "Rick and Morty," part of an effort to reach younger and more diverse consumers, Baxter said.

"[B]etter-than-expected recovery trends, as a result of general casualization of the marketplace as well as Lee and Wrangler's strong positioning with key retailers that are deemed essential (including Walmart, Target, and Boot Barn) position the company well," wrote Susquehanna Financial Group.

Analysts also applaud Kontoor's emphasis on digital, with U.S. digital sales through the company's e-commerce channels up 43% during the quarter. Susquehanna says it is confident that the company will "improve through next year."

Susquehanna rates Kontoor stock as positive with a $44 price target.
