Harry Styles Likes Alain de Botton—And He Has the Sweatshirt Prove It
“I just think he’s brilliant,” says Styles of the philosopher….


Harry Styles is a man smitten with fashion. He appreciates the architecture of a Saturday Night Fever–flare and is well-versed in the loveliness of a pearl necklace. So when Styles turned up to meet Hamish Bowles—his interviewer for his first Vogue cover story—wearing a sweatshirt, it can only be assumed he was making a fashion statement.
The hoodie featured the likeness of Mr. Alain de Botton, a Swiss-born, London-based intellectual who’s published dozens of books on the benefits of reading Proust and the fulfillment to be found in the finer arts. The garment is one of a kind, because, as Styles tells Bowles, he designed it himself. Styles pulled two photos of de Botton—one of him with crossed arms, leaning up against a bookcase; another sees a more youthful de Botton (the author lost his hair at 20)—and printed them side-by-side in black-and-white on a black cotton hoodie. It goes without saying, the singer’s adulation of the author runs deep.
It all started in 2013 with a story in the U.K.’s Metro. A Q&A in which the author asked de Botton if he was friends with Styles. “That would be over-egging it. I was introduced to him at a party. Neither of us had heard of each other. We had a nice chat. It was fun.” De Botton even tweeted a photo of the encounter.
The interview continues with de Botton—a dedicated aesthete with less pomp than Oscar Wilde and an educator whose credos are a lot more polarizing than Bill Nye the Science Guy—expounding on how to engage the public.
“My plan is to…get people such as Harry Styles to go on television and recommend to everyone they read Proust and Hegel,” he said in the 2013 interview. “David Beckham could do Aristotle and Plato. The cause of intellectual life in this country would be helped immeasurably.… In an ideal world Harry Styles would be teaching his 10 million Twitter followers a little more about Greek philosophy.”

Cardi B’s $60K Birkin Bag Gets The ‘Mommy Treatment’ As Daughter Unleashes Her Creativity

In a moment of relatable frustration, Cardi B took to Instagram to share a funny yet surprising story about her expensive $60,000 Birkin bag, one of her favorite items from her luxury collection. Known for her bold personality and honest social media posts, Cardi revealed that one of her daughters had turned the fancy purse into a makeshift canvas, drawing a heart on it without permission. “Look what my daughter did to my purse,” Cardi said dramatically in her Instagram Story, showing off the iconic bag to her followers. “I literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” she exclaimed, still amazed by the unexpected ‘artwork’ from her little girl.
Although she was frustrated, the mom of three tried to take it all in stride, at least for the moment. Cardi values her hard-earned luxury items, especially her growing collection of high end bags. However, as any parent knows, kids have a skill for creating chaos even in the most cherished parts of life. For Cardi, that chaos includes her high-priced accessories. The post quickly gained attention online, with fans sympathizing with Cardi’s situation. Many found humor in the irony of the event, while others offered support, pointing out that such moments are just part of the unpredictable journey of parenthood.

But Cardi’s frustration didn’t stop there. She later took to Twitter to respond to comments made by Kanye West regarding her staying power in the spotlight. While she didn’t mention him directly, her tweet, “7 years 1 album… STILL being a topic and STILL being asked about my music!!!” sent a clear message. She confidently asserted her spot in the entertainment world, clarifying that her fans, known as “The Brim,” are not going anywhere. In the end, whether it’s a damaged Birkin bag or dealing with critics, Cardi B repeatedly shows that she remains unfazed by the ups and downs of fame, always staying true to herself and her family.
