Jennifer Lopez Just Served Up the Ultimate Fashion #TBT

Posted by
Jennifer Lopez has come a long way since she was Jenny from the Block, not least of all in her fashion sense. These days, her wardrobe is more polished than streetwise, but every now and then, she’ll throw it back in a look that magically combines both. That’s what she did earlier this afternoon when she stepped out in New York wearing a heather grey tracksuit that felt like a modern, grown-up take on the bubblegum-pink Juicy Couture velour separates she made famous in her 2001 music video, “I’m Real.” Lopez’s sweats were trimmed in a metallic side stripe, which elongated the silhouette and added a diva-appropriate touch of shine. She kept the tone-on-tone message going with silver mirrored shades and suede ankle booties with exposed zippers. The choice of shoe felt more sophisticated than a sneaker, and she took that idea and ran with it by carrying her trusty  Hermès Birkin  instead of a gym tote.

USA Men's Soccer Team Fails To Qualify For World Cup

"We let down an entire nation today."

The United States Men's National Soccer failed to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since the 1986 tournament. Last night's 2-1 loss to Trinidad & Tobago, coupled with other World Cup Qualifying results last night, resulted in an early elimination before the World Cup even began, which US defender Omar Gonazalez dubbed, "the worst day of my career."
"I just want to say sorry to the fans, all the U.S. fans that were pulling for us, that wanted to go to Russia, that believed in us," Gonzalez added, per ESPN. "We let down an entire nation today."
Trinidad & Tobago's first goal of the game came off the shin of Gonzalez, who was attempting to clear a cross sent into the box in the 17th minute.
"It's one of the most unlucky goals ever I think for myself," Gonzalez said, per ESPN. "It's one that will haunt me forever."
20 minutes after the own goal, Trinidad & Tobago's Alvin Jones buried a 30-yarder which turned out to be all they would need to prevent the U.S. from qualifying for the World Cup.
The 2018 FIFA World Cup will be held in Russia next year, beginning on June 14th and running through July 15th. Unfortunately the United States won't be invited.
Check out some of the reactions to last night's devastating loss below.
