Fashion is all about the juxtaposition of enduring style and of-the-moment energy. It can feel like there’s a riddle enveloped within (what’s meant to last for years, yet catches the zeitgeist for a gotta-have-it vibe?) but when the solution is presented, it invariably feels like it just makes sense.

“Besties, I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: just because you’re paying for it on Afterpay, doesn’t mean you’re not paying for it,” TikToker Maddie White admonishes to her 2.5 million followers, looking directly into the camera. “Four hundred dollars is still $400, and if you couldn’t afford to pay for it all

All three of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s children, 8-year-old Prince George, 7-year-old Princess Charlotte, and 4-year-old Prince Louis came out for Trooping the Colour, the Queen’s birthday parade, today in London.

What about taking in a movie this Fourth of July? Sure, setting off fireworks and running around with playfully dangerous sparklers can be fun, but some people would much rather watch other fools launch pyrotechnics into the sky from the safety of their homes. Your uncle may say there’s nothing more American than grilling hot
There are two types of guys in this world. Guy 1: “How have I gone my whole life without the wizarding wonders of this beard straightener? Two words: game-changer.” Guy 2: “Wait… beard straighteners are a thing?” If you’re in the latter camp, welcome to the first day of the rest of your life. If
When it comes to staying cool in summer heat, linen really can’t be topped. So, why has it developed a reputation as being a bit ‘past it’?
