Mindy Kaling might be a born and bred East Coaster, but she sure has taken to the easy, breezy L.A. way of life pretty quickly. 

The newly expecting Mindy Project star, who splits her time between L.A. and N.Y.C., has been spending the summer at her sprawling villa in the City of Angels, and recently, she decided that her backyard needed a shot of signature SoCal chic.    

“In my New York home I have more of a cleaner aesthetic, like cream as the base of all the rooms with some pops of color,” says Kaling. “But my L.A. home is just full of color and is really gilded, inside and out.” Bearing that in mind, the actress turned to interior designer Katie Ridder and One Kings Lane to help bring her bold backyard vision to life. “I really admired Katie’s Instagram, and I fell in love with the way she uses colors, textures, prints, and patterns,” she says. "I felt like it had to be her."

For Kaling, the trickiest part was settling on a layout that would complement her yard. “I have really strong opinions about color and patterns, but I don’t really know how to organize things in a space,” she says. Now, with Ridder’s help, she has areas for both lounging (on couches or poolside) and dining al fresco, perfect for a summer full of entertaining.

"I wanted a house with a lot of outdoor space so I could invite my writing staff over to barbecue and hang out,” she adds. "I have a giant dining table too, so I can have Nancy Meyers-style dinner parties out here... or that’s my fantasy anyway!”

The Bachelorette: come for the drama, stay for the love story. It’s a formula that’s been pulling viewers in season after season, despite the many Whaboom-level characters that make us want to check out long before the final rose.       

But lately, thanks to Rachel Lindsay and her season-long supply of cute looks, we’ve been tuning into the show for a whole new reason—outfit inspo.

Besides being smart, funny, and all-around awesome, Lindsay is by far one of the best-dressed Bachelorettes in the show’s 14-year history (JoJo Fletcher comes in close second). And it’s not just the rose ceremony gowns that have impressed us. Working with the show’s stylists, Cary Fetman and Krystine Couch, she has perfected the art of the daytime date look too, which let’s face it, can be much trickier than throwing on a cocktail dress and calling it a day.

From her breezy off-the shoulder top and jeans for the spelling bee date in Hilton Head Island (c-h-i-c) to her all-white everything vibe in Switzerland, Lindsay has nailed it in almost every time zone and temp this season. And tonight during the all-important hometown dates, she meets the ‘rents of the remaining men in four different cities—and four different looks—that all manage to capture her polished, feminine style.

All four hometown outfits include some version of a skinny jean (Paige and Fidelity are faves), likely in an attempt to show that, yes, she’s still just a girl from Dallas that can hang with grandma. In Miami, she meets Bryan’s family in dark wash jeans with a floral handkerchief hem tank and nude wedges (above), while in Aspen, she meets up with Dean in a cozy duster, black tee, and a knit cap (below). Visits with Eric and Peter follow a similarly effortless feel.      

In honor of Lindsay and her day date mastery, we’re taking notes on her best casual looks of the season (so far).    

The Bachelorette thrives on a simple formula—throw 30 men in a house, introduce one woman who they all want to date, take away their phones, and…go.

There’s bound to be some primetime-worthy drama along the way, especially since they also eat together, workout together, and even sleep in the same #sponsored hotel suites. But for every “I’m not here to make friends” Lee and Kenny, there’s a Peter and Dean. Two dudes who, despite the cameras and the terribly awkward circumstances, manage to become pals.

Last week when Dean was sent home after his hometown date, Peter took to Instagram to share this aww-inducing snap (above) of the two in Denmark and give his best bud a shout-out. 

“We shared clothes, we shared a bed, we even shared a girlfriend for a period of time, which I’m still not really sure how I’m supposed to feel about,” he said. “But above all that, we shared one of the best friendships of this lifetime. You’re like the younger brother I never wanted, but am so glad that I now have. I love you like my own. Incredibly sad to see you go this week, but truly happy to continue this brotherhood now on the other side. #batmantomyrobin #patricktomyspongebob”.

Now that’s a bromance we can get behind. In honor of Peter and Dean (and before everyone turns on each other at the “Men Tell All” episode), we’re looking back on the best Bachelorette bromances of all time that prove that sometimes there’s still a happy ending even if you don’t get the girl.

Jessica Biel has sure come a long way since 7^th Heaven. It’s been 10 years since the 35-year-old actress officially signed off as TV’s favorite big sis Mary Camden, and though she’s been busy with film roles—and playing mom to Silas, her two-year-old son with husband Justin Timberlake—we have to admit we’ve missed her on the small screen.

Turns out, she’s missed it too. She was just waiting for the right show to come along. Enter The Sinner, the eight-episode crime miniseries (premiering tonight on USA at 10 p.m. ET) that has become Biel’s latest passion project.

In the show, Biel plays Cora, a young mom who snaps one day while at the beach with her husband and son—stabbing a complete stranger in the middle of the afternoon in an eerie, trance-like state. What follows is a twist on the typical whodunit crime drama, with the remaining seven episodes uncovering the  “why”—instead of the “who” or the “what”.

For Biel, who also executive-produced the series, a role this layered was too good to pass up. “The story is based on the book, The Sinner, by Petra Hammesfahr, and once I read it and started learning more about this compelling character, I knew I wanted to take it on,” Biel told InStyle earlier this week while wearing a sleeveless Elie Saab frock at the premiere screening in N.Y.C. “I thought, I better jump on this before it goes to one of my peers!”

Biel describes Cora as a woman who “doesn’t really know who she is,” which comes across in the first episode’s flashbacks to her complicated childhood. In addition, she’s now struggling with both depression and addiction. “Ten years ago, this show would’ve been considered too dark or too niche for cable TV,” says Biel of the series, which was created by Derek Simonds and co-stars Bill Pullman and Christopher Abbott. “But now, it’s such a great time for unique ideas to find their audience. TV is telling the best stories out there right now, and a lot of them are female-centric, with females also at the helm.”   

Though the subject matter is pretty intense, it has already received a stamp of approval from the most important person in Biel’s life—her husband. On Monday, Timberlake took to Instagram to praise his wife and her new show.

“Ok, I know I’m not exactly fair and maybe biased here, but my wife’s new show The Sinner is amazing,” he said. “It’s nothing like I’ve seen her in before, and she’s incredible in the role. You should check it out when it premieres Wednesday on USA.

Well said, JT, well said.

Denise Bidot broke down barriers earlier this year by appearing in an ad in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue completely unretouched. Now, the model and face of Lane Bryant’s The New Skinny, opens up about the unrealistic pursuit of perfection in the fashion industry.

Growing up, I wasn’t familiar with the plus-size modeling world. Instead, I’d look to women like Jennifer Lopez, Salma Hayek, and Kate Winslet as my curvy-girl beacons of hope. I remember watching Kate in Titanic and thinking, 'Wow, her body is amazing. She’s curvy, beautiful, and loved by so many people.' Then, shortly before I started modeling at age 18, I found out about the Crystal Renns and Emmes of the world—the curvy girls whose modeling and reach went far beyond their size. For me, that was the dream.

Beauty is finally being embraced in so many different forms now. We’re finding new ways to challenge all of the standards that have been unrealistic for so long. Last year, when my unretouched Lane Bryant ad came out in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, it went viral so quickly. When I shot the campaign, I actually had no idea that it would run unretouched. But when I saw the images, I was freaking out to think that my bare tummy was going to be in those pages. That was never a realistic expectation for me, so to end up in that ad with Lane Bryant behind me, that was monumental, not just for me but for women everywhere. Lane Bryant wasn’t trying to make a statement by leaving my stretch marks alone. They just thought: Why would we edit this out? Stretch marks are beautiful too. That’s impactful. It shows how far we’ve come.

Still, I realize this industry is a business. Photography is a work of art, and there are a lot of little pieces that go into creating an amazing final image. As a model, I’ve learned to appreciate all the steps. Sometimes retouching helps to make sure there are no wrinkles on the clothes in a picture. I have no problem with that. But people also want to see reality. [We shouldn't] generalize beauty. We’re coming into an age where consumers are more alert to these sort of things. They want to see something authentic and relatable, and taking away that fourth wall of retouching can help with that.

And social media is another story. On Instagram, it feels like everyone is a retoucher, editing and filtering anything they post. Sometimes I wonder, 'What happened to just simply taking a picture?' I think it’s time to get back to authenticity and to show people we are allowed to be imperfect and still be beautiful. As a model, I’m thankful that we have social media so that my followers know what is or isn’t me. I constantly put unretouched images on my page because I think it helps to know that models aren’t perfect. We all have "imperfections" that are absolutely where they should be.

It’s easy to look at other people’s feeds and wish for this, and wish for that. But trying to fit yourself into any one person’s opinion of beauty is just going to be a let down. I think that’s a daily struggle for a lot of us. It’s a journey. I definitely don’t wake up every single day feeling like a rock star, you know? I actually get more of a kick out of my daughter Joselyn’s laugh than any number on a scale. That’s part of the reason I started the No Wrong Way Movement, which encourages women, men, really everyone, to embrace their most authentic self.

Joselyn is 9, and it’s been really fascinating to watch her grow up during this body positivity revolution. She’s seeing people in the media and on TV that resemble her, and I’ve been able to see the shift in her confidence because of it. We have to continue to push for diverse beauty because I can already see the difference it makes in a kid who is raised with that mindset. We’re starting to see the impact, but we’re nowhere near the finish line just yet.

Break-ups are never easy. But once you’ve gotten past the pints of Haagen-Dazs and the wallowing to Whitney Houston’s Spotify channel, something magical happens. You turn a corner. And finally, you're ready to get back out there and show the world that you’ve moved way past what’s-his-name.  

That’s where the revenge dress comes in. Unlike a new haircut (too permanent) or a new yoga bod (too strenuous), a revenge dress gives you a new lease on your social life in minutes. It’s a fresh start in fashion form. And believe it or not, the term actually has pretty aristocratic origins. 

In November of 1994, Princess Diana was in the middle of a publicity storm following her separation from Prince Charles. Instead of going into hiding (which let’s face it, would’ve been much easier), the royal made headlines for an entirely different reason—her dress. On the very night that Charles admitted to his infidelity in a now-infamous interview, Diana stepped out in a chic black curve-hugging, off-the-shoulder dress (above) by Greek designer Christina Stambolian to attend a party at the Serpentine Gallery in London. And so, the revenge dress was born.  

Of course, Diana was already known as a royal trendsetter. But before that night, her look was demure, sophisticated, and regal, rather than sexy. That dress was the ultimate fashion power play. And now, more than 20 years later, women everywhere are still channeling their inner Lady Di with their own head-turning breakovers. From Reese Witherspoon’s sunny yellow Nina Ricci mini, post-Ryan Phillippe split, to Bella Hadid’s Alexander Wang cat suit at this year's Met Gala (eat your heart out, The Weeknd), we’re taking a look back at the best revenge dresses of all-time.          

She’s walked the runway for everyone, earned her Victoria’s Secret angel wings, and posed for Versace alongside Gigi Hadid and Karlie Kloss, but Dilone doesn’t take her day job too seriously.

“Fashion should always be fun and a little rebellious,” says the 23-year-old Long Island, N.Y., native, who started modeling when she was 18. “Whenever I’m at a shoot and it’s feeling a bit rigid, I try to break down those walls. You can’t be afraid to leap, turn, and make a silly face once in a while.” Since her breakout season for fall 2016, when she walked in more than 40 shows, Dilone has challenged what it means to look and act like a modern-day megamodel. “The fashion industry is ready for something different,” she says. “I don’t think we’re going to go back to when everyone was super-skinny with blond hair and blue eyes.”

As one of 10 siblings in a “big Dominican family,” Dilone, whose full name is Janiece Altagracia Dilone (she goes by her last name because Janiece often gets confused with Janice, her least favorite Friends character), stood out from a young age as a style renegade. “I remember one day in high school, I wore a big pouffy skirt with high heels and a feather to class,” she says, laughing. “I was already 5 foot 10, so with the 4 extra inches from the shoes and this huge feather, everyone thought I was a teacher. But no, I was just a junior, looking like a peacock.”

These days, her outfits are still turning heads. “My style has evolved so much since I’ve been modeling,” she says. “I was born in ’94, so I love pieces that have a ’90s, androgynous feel.” Though she cites Céline (“Phoebe Philo’s suits are the most beautiful things in the world”) and Sies Marjan (“I’d wear their entire fall collection, even the skirts”) as current favorites, Dilone’s typical off-duty look consists of a cropped top, slouchy cargo pants, and sneakers. “I like being comfortable, so I tend to dress like a tomboy,” she says.

And while a neutral palette is her default, she’s not opposed to a well-placed pop of color. “I’m always bouncing off the walls with energy,” she says. “So when I wear color, I become even more vibrant—kind of like a highlighter.”

That exuberant personality is about to come in handy: She’s hoping to squeeze in some acting classes between shoots while she’s in London for the next few months. “I’ve always looked up to comedy greats like Eddie Murphy and Jim Carrey. I even named my dog after Jim,” she says. Her dream gig? “Definitely Saturday Night Live. But no matter what I do, the goal is to make people smile.”

In the new comedy Fun Mom Dinner, Molly Shannon plays Jamie, a divorcee, who upon reentering the singles scene, turns to dating apps and Instagram in hopes that prince charming will slide ever so discretely into her DMs. (“You’re not just a mom—you’re a hot single lady,” she hilariously chants to herself in between selfies.)

In real life, of course, Shannon is happily married to artist Fritz Chestnut, with two kids of her own (Stella, 13, and Nolan, 12). And her Instagram game? It’s much more on point than Jamie’s, thanks in large part to a former Jo Bro.

“Nick Jonas actually signed me up for Instagram last year,” Shannon tells InStyle. “It’s funny, I met him at a bar at the Sundance Film Festival, and after we took a picture together, he said ‘You should really post that.’ I was like, ‘Well, I would, but I don’t have Instagram.’ So, he signed me up right then and there at the bar! Now we both follow each other—and we also have the same birthday—so there’s this cosmic, social media connection. And I really like Instagram now. It’s fun!”

Also fun? Getting to pal around with the amazing ensemble cast for the film, which co-stars Toni Collette, Bridget Everett, and Katie Aselton as a group of moms who get together for a girl’s night gone awry. Paul Rudd, Adam Scott, Paul Rust, and Adam Levine make memorable cameos too.

“What I like about this story is that it’s funny but still relatable,” says Shannon, of the script that was written by Julie Rudd (who is married to Paul Rudd). “Julie put a little part of herself in all of the characters, so it comes from a really authentic place. I think all women like to see themselves and their friends represented onscreen. I know I do.”

For Shannon, who rose to fame on Saturday Night Live in the '90s, playing everyone from Anna Nicole Smith to “Superstar” Mary Katherine Gallagher, her character in Fun Mom Dinner was a still a bit of a stretch. “Jamie’s going through a transition because she’s newly divorced and is ready for her chapter two,” says Shannon. “But then she smokes a little too much pot and doesn’t have a great reaction. She becomes super paranoid, which, for me, was really funny to play.”

The actress is also gearing up for a busy few months with Wet Hot American Summer: 10 Years Later now streaming on Netflix and the second season of Divorce on HBO coming back this fall. She’s also working on a pilot for Comedy Central with SNL head writers Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider.

So we had to ask: If Shannon could bring back any of her SNL alter egos, which would it be?

“I don’t miss doing Mary Katherine Gallagher because it was so physically hard. I don’t know if I could do that stuff anymore,” she says. “But I still love Jeannie Darcy, the bad stand-up comic that I did. You know, the one that’s like, ‘Don’t get me started, don’t even get me started.’ It’s still pretty funny after all these years.”

Fun Mom Dinner is in theaters now.

You might not know that much about actress and comedian Bridget Everett, but chances are you recognize her from something.  

Since her scene-stealing turn as the drunk party girl vying to be Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant in the Sex and the City movie, Everett has had a steady stream of small but oh-so-memorable parts in everything from HBO’s Girls to Trainwreck to Inside Amy Schumer. And when she’s not on screen, she’s on stage, redefining cabaret, at Joe’s Pub in N.Y.C. with her band, the Tender Moments.

Still, she hasn’t quite had her breakthrough moment—until now.

This month, the 45-year-old star is taking the lead in not one but two films: Fun Mom Dinner (out now) and Patti Cake$ (out August 18), followed closely by Love You More, a fall pilot for Amazon that she developed with Sex and the City showrunner Michael Patrick King and comedian Bobcat Goldthwait.       

“It’s been a long road,” Everett tells InStyle. “I was still waiting tables up until about two and a half years ago. Now it seems like everything is happening pretty fast.”

Though all three of her upcoming roles vary in tone, each is as bold and unapologetic as Everett is in real life. Her Fun Mom Dinner character Melanie, for instance, was fine-tuned just for her by writer Julie Rudd, who first met Everett after watching her cabaret show.

“Melanie is militant and severe in some ways, but she also has a lot of heart,” says Everett, of her alter ego in the comedy, which also stars Molly Shannon, Toni Collette, and Katie Aselton as a group of moms on a rowdy girl’s night out. “I loved that she has a really great sex life with her husband too. Sometimes in movies, the bigger girl gets the unsuccessful relationship. But Melanie’s got a good thing going. She’s funny without being cartoonish. I really wanted her to be like a normal person ultimately.”

Patti Cake$, on the other hand,which was a breakout hit at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, serves as Everett’s first dramatic part. The film follows Patti (Danielle Macdonald), a young rapper with a big mouth and a bigger dream to make it in hip hop. Everett plays Barb, Patti’s mom, who also once had dreams of music stardom.

“Patti’s mother is a hard drinker, barfly type, who wanted to be a rock star and then got pregnant, and her life sort of disappeared,” she says. “Her relationship with her daughter is complicated because of it.”

The actress says she fell in love with the story first and had trouble believing that she actually got the part. “When the film got financing after the film festival, I was convinced they would replace all of us with actual movie stars. But they kept us, and I think that’s what makes it special.”

And while all three of her projects are distinctly different, Everett says she sees one important common thread. “They’re all female-driven projects,” she says. “And everything that I’ve been watching lately—Big Little Lies, The Keepers—they’re all female-driven too. Physically, I’m not the typical kind of woman that you might see in film, but now it seems like there’s more space to represent all different kinds of women. It’s exciting. I grew up with a single mother, like Patti, and lots of close girlfriends, like Melanie. Those are the stories and the people that I relate to, so thank God there’s more of it coming.”

It’s inspired a Broadway musical, countless couple Halloween costumes, and Bey and Jay’s ride or die duet. Today, exactly five decades have passed since the 1967 crime thriller Bonnie and Clyde officially hit theaters, and the dynamic duo’s chic outlaw looks are still influencing our style on the regular.   

The classic film, which stars Faye Dunaway as Bonnie Parker and Warren Beatty as Clyde Barrow, is, of course, a take on the real-life Great Depression-era bank robbers, but when director Arthur Penn brought the story to the big screen, he added a major dose of classic 1930'ss style.

The costumes, designed by Theadora Van Runkle, go down as some of the most memorable in cinema history. But the main reason we love them is that they weren’t costume-y at all. Bonnie’s ladylike pencil skirts, knit sweaters, and wool berets were a delightful foil for her ultimately sinister personality, and yet they're still completely wearable and polished almost a half a century later. As for Clyde? Bonnie couldn't have wishes for a more dapper partner in crime. It’s no wonder the film was nominated for an Oscar that year for best costume design.

In honor of the Bonnie and Clyde’s 50th anniversary, we’re looking back at some of the movie’s most iconic looks, below.

Sure, great style runs in her family, but Solange Knowles has spent the past five years perfecting a red-carpet mix that's all her own.

The 31-year-old soul singer hits all the high notes in vibrant primary colors and modern metallics, served up with an artful dose of drama. She also brings an undeniable cool factor to pretty much everything she touches, making even a Tom Brown puffer coat (at this year’s Met Gala) work on the step and repeat.

“Solange is very comfortable with fashion—she gets what designers are doing and it shows,” says her stylist Peju Famojure. “She also understands how a silhouette can communicate a certain mood or idea.”

Perhaps that’s why she’s always switching it up, ditching conventional gowns for sleek jumpsuits, caped minis, and dress over pants combos, often styled in one continuously bold shade. “She has a penchant for monochromatic dressing at the moment,” says Famojure. But color aside, “her looks always take something traditional, like suiting, and turn it on its head, subverting traditional ideas of femininity.”

It has been quite the week for Bachelor Nation. Not only did the third season of Bachelor in Paradise premiere last week to clear up the Corinne and DeMario controversy, but two other former Bachelor stars made big announcements in the last few days.

Evan and Carly Bass, who got engaged on last season’s Paradise and married earlier this summer, revealed yesterday that they were expecting a little girl. “I’m not the only girl anymore!” she said on Instagram posting a gender reveal snap with Evan and his three sons from a previous marriage.

Not to be outdone, Carly’s Paradise bestie and recent bridesmaid, Jade Tolbert delivered her first daughter, with Bachelorette alum Tanner Tolbert, last Thursday. “It’s official! Say hello to Emerson Avery Tolbert! “Emmy” for short,” she later 'grammed.

In honor of the recent Bachelor baby boom, we’re looking back at the most adorable Bachelor Nation offspring, who prove that the fairy tale ending is indeed alive.

Growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, I knew very few people that were in the military. I never gave it much thought until college. And when I was a senior, I started doing some research, and I discovered that I had a desire to do my part in the service.

Since I was never a great swimmer, I quickly disregarded the Navy. And then it was either the Army, Marines, or Air Force. And the Air Force just seemed like the best fit. So I enlisted at 23 and became an Air Force management operations supervisor, which basically means I track all of the flights that come in and out of our base as well as oversee everything that happens on the actual airfield.

I was in the military for a couple of years when I came out as transgender. First, I told my family and they were extremely accepting. I mostly expected that, but at the same time, you never know what the reaction will be.

About a month later, when I decided that I would medically transition from female to male, I told my coworkers. I thought that they needed to know. It was still a hard thing to come out and say, so I started with a few people that were ranked above me, and then one of them helped me tell the rest of my shop. 

I started the transition process about nine months ago, but I don’t think you’re ever really completely finished. I think of it as more of a journey. A couple of my co-workers told me that they outright supported me up front, and I felt really good about that. But mostly, people still feel uncomfortable with the subject, so they don’t really say anything about it to me.

Most of the time, it’s just work as normal. I think that’s because before my transition, my coworkers knew me and respected me. And when I came out, they still respected me.

I’m working the night shift right now, so when [President Trump’s] tweets came out about the ban, I was still asleep. But my phone kept going off, so that’s how I found out initially. Shock is how I would sum up my reaction. I personally disagree with the ban. I also don’t know what is going to happen to my role in the military, so I’m feeling anxious about the future right now.

RELATED: "I May Never Be In Uniform Again": A Trans Former Navy Pilot Speaks Out

I am an airman first, so ultimately my goal is to just go to work and do my job to the best of my ability every day. However, I personally don’t believe the cost of care qualifies us—the trans community—as a burden to the military. There are so many skilled crewmembers, drill sergeants, special operators, and more, that are trans.

And there are still many misconceptions too. Some people think that the transition process makes us completely non-deployable for years, which is also untrue. When someone sprains their ankle or breaks their arm, they’re obviously not going to be deployed for a while to account for the healing process. A trans person who’s approved for surgery is going to be non-deployable but only for a short amount of time too. And others elect to not have the surgery at all, which means they’re deployable throughout the entire transition process.

We’re plenty capable of doing our jobs and doing it well. Identifying as trans has zero impact on our ability to carry that out.

About six years ago, I moved to London to be in a play called The Children's Hour, and I came across Magma, a bookstore in Covent Garden that had Brooklyn artist Dan-ah Kim's work in the window. The art immediately drew me in. I bought a few pieces that day and then went home and ordered more prints and originals from Dan-ah's Etsy shop.

So much of her work is about the juxtaposition of femininity and strength, a duality that all women have. My favorite piece is of a hand holding a bouquet of flowers with a dagger hidden within. It's evocative because it shows something delicate disguising something incredibly tough.

The other one that I love was given to me by my mom and brother the summer I wrapped Mad Men. When I opened it, my jaw dropped because it's a picture of a girl in the stars taking off her collar. My character, Peggy, was known for wearing collared dresses, so it meant a lot to me as I was putting that role to bed. Now I hang Dan-ah's work in all my dressing rooms and trailers to help inspire each performance. All art is obviously open to interpretation, but it feels as if she and I are speaking the same language.

In the ‘90s and early aughts, Freddie Prinze Jr. was the ultimate heartthrob. It’s no wonder he got the girl at the end of She’s All That, Head Over Heels, and practically every other ‘90s-era romcom.

Well, he's just as charming IRL, which is how he wooed his I Know What You Did Last Summer co-star Sarah Michelle Gellar both on set and long after the film wrapped. This Friday, the cute couple is celebrating a major relationship milestone—their 15^th wedding anniversary—which, after a summer full of celeb splits, is more inspiring than any romcom happy ending.

So, we had to know: What’s the secret to keeping their relationship so solid after all these years?

“There is no exact secret,” Prinze Jr. told InStyle at the N.Y.C launch event for Dunkin’ Donuts new cold brew coffee packs, where the actor demonstrated a recipe from his cookbook Back to the Kitchen. “But there are a few things. In the beginning, I think you have to be open minded and able to get over any preconceived fantasies of what your ideal partner is like. If you’re like, ‘Oh my God, he’s my perfect type: he’s six-foot-four, he does this, he does that,’ the relationship will be over before it even starts.”  

Once you’ve found the right person, Prinze Jr. said, you’ve got to put in the work. “Selfishness is a good thing in some respects,” he said. “It’s going to help you become the writer you want to be, it helped Kobe Bryant be the basketball player he wanted to be. But when you finally decide to give yourself to someone else, sacrifices have to be made. And if you’re not investing the same amount of time in the relationship that you did with your career or other things, it can’t succeed. That’s a tough bridge for a lot of people to cross. I know it was tough for Sarah and I. But I was in a place where I was done chasing ghosts and I was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice, mainly because it didn’t even feel like a sacrifice with her.”

The last piece of the relationship puzzle is much simpler, he said: “Sarah and I still make each other laugh, which is really important. When I say certain things to Sarah, and I see the look on her face, I know she loves me. And I live for that look, you know?”

Congrats on your 15^th wedding anniversary! Any plans for the big day?

We thought about going away, but we’re softies with our kids (Charlotte, 7, and Rocky, 4). When we leave them for one night we tap out because we miss them too much. We’ll see!

Do you know what you’re getting Sarah yet? Is 15^th anniversary crystal?

She hates getting crystal, so she’s getting something that looks like crystal but is better than crystal.

We love your cookbook, Back to The Kitchen. And Sarah’s got her own book, Stirring Up Fun With Food. Was food something that you bonded over when you started dating?

Well, she loves to eat and I love to cook, so when we first met that worked out well. We stayed in more than we went out early in our relationship and still do to this day. Now, I really want my children to see me do what I love, which is cook. If I was on a movie set for 15 hours a day, they would not have seen a happy father.

Have your kids gotten into the kitchen with you?

My daughter can make anything I make. The only thing I don’t let her play with is fire and sharp knives. But she can make steamed clams, mussels, and pizza with broccoli. I posted the last pizza she made.

You seem like a hands-on dad.

I am! And I can schedule my children’s day perfectly, to the minute. My cookbook is all about saving time in the kitchen, so you can spend it with your family.

So what’s an average morning like at the Prinze house?

I can make my green eggs and ham dish for them in 7 minutes if I do the proper prep the night before. If I get lucky, my kids will eat breakfast in ten minutes and put their shoes on the first time I ask them. All I need is enough time to drop them off, so that I can grab my Dunkin Donuts coffee and get to jiu-jitsu by 10.

Do you remember the very first thing that you ever cooked for Sarah?

I’m not sure of the first thing I cooked for her, but I do remember our first date. It was supposed to be a three-person dinner with a mutual friend, and our friend didn’t show up. There was that moment where you’re in mid-conversation and all of a sudden it’s quiet from both parties, and you know what they’re thinking, and they know what you’re thinking, but neither of you have the courage to say it. Once that feeling was established, I was like, ‘Okay, so everything just changed.’ [laughs]. I’d been friends with Sarah for almost three years before we ever smooched. And we’ve been together ever since—almost 18 years total.

In October, it’s going to be the 20^th anniversary of I Know What You Did Last Summer, where you and your wife first met. What are some of your fondest memories from the set?

Ryan [Phillippe] and I were workout buddies. We would go on runs together every day. I grew up running for boxing and wrestling, and he just really wanted to get shredded. One time, I remember it was 5:30 in the morning and I was knocking on his door to run. I waited and waited and finally he comes to the door and he says ‘I’m in good enough shape, brother. I’m done running now.’ [laughs]. Then he just shut the door on me. I had a great time with him on that movie.

Did you hit it off with Sarah right away on set?

We were like night and day. She didn’t have her driver’s license yet, so I was her chauffeur. I even drove her to the gym so she could work out! She was born and raised in Manhattan and I was born in SoCal and loved to surf. I was so much more chill than she was! Her energy was at a ten and I was at a three. Over the years, I’ve gotten to about a five or a six and she’s gotten to like a 9.8.

That movie was peak ‘90s in terms of style too. I don’t know if you’ve heard, but the ‘90s are back—chokers, platforms, everything.

Eliza Dushku must be thrilled! She used to wear chokers every day back in ’98. It’s funny, I told Sarah, I had seen a girl in a choker and I wanted to crack a joke. And she was like, ‘You would’ve been the joke because those are back!’

Is there one ’90s trend that you would never want to see come back in style?

I was so not a fashion guy. I was the guy that bleached his hair and added purple color to the tips. Then I walked the press line with Brandy for I Still Know What You Did Last Summer and all of these people were talking trash about it. I was just like "I’m sorry, who did you come with? I’m with Miss Norwood." [laughs]

So you’re saying we’ll never see you with purple tips again?

You never know. If I need a nostalgic flashback in my mid-life crisis, maybe I’ll do it. If you ever see me with purple hair, just know that I’m about to buy a Porsche.

They say a picture is worth a 1000 words. Well, a picture of a celeb wearing another celeb on their shirt might be worth 10,000.

Sometimes it’s simply a way of showing their support to a fellow A-lister. Or maybe it’s to send a message that a relationship is still going strong (ahem, Gigi and Zayn). But most of the time, when a star slips on a T-shirt touting another star, it’s a case of pure, unadulterated fangirling. And that is something we can always get behind.

Like most young moms, Jenna Dewan Tatum is used to a bit of juggling to make her days run smoothly. The Step Up alum spent the summer balancing her hosting gig on NBC’s World of Dance with mommy duty to 4-year-old Everly, her daughter with husband Channing Tatum. But once the show wrapped, Dewan Tatum knew exactly what she needed to get back on track before the fall: a little R&R.

“Being in nature is so important to my well-being, so Channing and I took a wilderness trip to Michigan with Everly,” Dewan Tatum tells InStyle. “It was incredible because we essentially had no cell service. There was a handwritten map given to us with no address, so we just drove until we found the entrance to the cabin. And once we were there, we actually had to canoe to get places. It was wonderful.”

Even though she’s back to reality now, Dewan Tatum continues to look for little ways to connect to Mother Earth in her everyday life. Enter her latest project: A partnership with Young Living Essential Oils, a line of seed-to-seal blends like lavender and ylang ylang, that the actress has sworn by for over 16 years.

“Even when I can't be in nature, using essential oils makes me feel like I'm still in touch with it because they come directly from a plant,” she told us at the launch of the brand’s spring 2018 collection during New York Fashion Week. “It’s amazing how scent can transform your mood too. During World of Dance, there were a lot of really long days on set, so I would reach for En-R-Gee ($33; youngliving.com), a citrusy blend, to diffuse in my dressing room for a little boost.”

She also loves the brand’s Hope Oil ($75; youngliving.com), which she rubs on her skin and the soles of her feet for a quick pick-me-up. “It’s kind of like a hug when it I put it on,” she says. “It's uplifting and helps me feel great even on the craziest days.”

So oil aside, what other simple pleasures make Dewan Tatum smile these days? Read on for six more of her instant mood boosters.

Every Christmas when I was in college, I went to Honolulu with my best friend, Jocelyn, to visit her family. Jocelyn’s mother, Hai Luen, was a Juilliard-trained pianist, a former model, and an all-around amazing person who essentially became an auntie to me. She and I shared a love for beautiful jewelry, particularly pieces made with black pearls. She used to take us to Chinatown to shop at the best vendors, and I remember always being struck by how dramatic and gorgeous the stones were up close. When Hai Luen passed away in 2012, sadly within a few weeks of my own mom’s death, Jocelyn gave me Hai Luen’s collection of loose pearls as a way to remember her.

Each stone was so wonderfully unique. I brought them to L.A. jeweler Kirsty Stone to find a way to showcase them together. It took about six months to design the necklace, add a row of diamonds, and get the pearls to hang the right way, but it turned out perfectly. Whenever I put it on, it reminds me of Hai Luen—and the bond between mothers and daughters. She’s a role model for the type of mother I want to be. I know I want to pass this necklace on to my own daughter one day just to be able to tell her the story behind it.

Ever since we saw her as Peter Parker’s love interest in this summer’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, we’ve developed our own little crush on actress Laura Harrier. Besides her obvious on-screen talent, the 27-year-old Chicago native also has impeccable taste, and has been consistently turning it out at red carpets, parties, and fashion shows alike.

"I've always loved dressing up," says Harrier, who you can see next opposite Michael B. Jordan in the HBO's remake of the sci-fi thriller Fahrenheit 451. "It's probably part of the reason I became an actress. Clothing can help you tap into so many emotions.”

Collaborating with stylist Danielle Nachmani has also helped open Harrier’s eyes to new fashion possibilities. “I’ve always had a pretty strong aesthetic, but working with Danielle has introduced me to so many new things,” she says. Together, Nachmani and Harrier worked with Calvin Klein creative director Raf Simons on a stunning red Calvin Klein By Appointment gown that she wore to Spider-Man’s L.A. premiere in June (above). “It was my dream dress," she says. “And the perfect representation of everything I love—pieces that are simple and minimal, yet still elevated and interesting.”
