Your kids will roast you (and honestly, they're not wrong)
Kylie Jenner just got absolutely demolished by her 7-year-old daughter Stormi, and honestly? It's the most relatable celebrity mom content I've seen in ages. In a viral TikTok, Stormi discovered her mom's 'King Kylie' era—you know, the mid-2010s when Jenner was cycling through wigs like they were seasonal coffee flavors. The kid took one look at a photo of her mom rocking a teal wig with a red outfit and delivered the kind of brutal honesty that only children possess: 'A blue wig with a red outfit? It's not a good combo.' Even Jenner had to agree. 'I know. It's not good.' And there it is, folks—the moment every parent dreads and secretly admires. The day your child looks at your past self and says, 'Mom, what were you thinking?' As a parent of two teens, let me tell you: this is just the beginning for Jenner. My 13-year-old daughter had the absolute audacity to critique four-year-old photos of my former side part—and that's not even totally out of style yet. There's NO WAY I'm showing her evidence from the early 2000s when I thought baby bangs, Juicy Couture knockoffs, and low-rise jeans were the height of sophistication. I'd never hear the end of it. The irony? This same child regularly raids my closet and dips into my fancy beauty products. She'll literally steal my clothes and then have the nerve to tell me my hair looks 'giving millennial.' Girl, you'd be lucky to be as cool as I am—past fashion choices and all. Related: Kylie Jenner opens up about battling 'major' postpartum depression Here's the thing about Gen Alpha: they're growing up with an aesthetic awareness that's frankly intimidating. They've been surrounded by curated Instagram feeds, TikTok beauty tutorials, and Pinterest boards since birth. They know what 'slaps' and what's 'cheugy' before they can properly tie their shoes. Unlike us, who had to figure out what looked good through trial and error (and a lot of regrettable yearbook photos), they're developing their sense of style in real-time with unlimited access to inspiration. No wonder they can spot a questionable outfit choice from 2016 and immediately know it's not it. It doesn't matter how cool you think you are—your kids will find something to roast you about. Celebrities with professional stylists? Not safe. Instagram influencers with perfectly curated feeds? Definitely not safe. Regular moms just trying to look put-together while getting everyone out the door? We never stood a chance. The beautiful thing about Stormi's reaction is how it captures something every parent experiences: the moment your child sees you as a real person who made real (questionable) choices. It's humbling and hilarious and oddly touching all at once. But here's what I love about these moments: they're actually signs of healthy development. When our kids feel comfortable enough to tease us about our fashion choices, it means they see us as human. They're not putting us on pedestals—they're relating to us as real people who sometimes make mistakes (sartorial and otherwise). Plus, let's be honest—they're usually right. That teal wig with the red outfit? Probably not Jenner's finest moment. My side part? It was definitely time for a change. Sometimes it takes a kid's unfiltered honesty to help us see what everyone else was too polite to mention. Related: Social media aficionado Kylie Jenner wants to protect daughter Stormi from media exposure So to all the parents out there dreading the day your child discovers your old Facebook photos: embrace it. Laugh with them. Admit that yes, you thought that outfit was amazing at the time, and no, you're not sure what you were thinking either. Because at the end of the day, these moments of gentle mockery are actually moments of connection. Your kid is saying, 'I see you, I know you, and I love you enough to tell you the truth—even when that truth is that your 2016 fashion choices were questionable.' And honestly? That's pretty beautiful, even if it stings a little. Just maybe hide those early 2000s photos for a few more years. There's only so much roasting a parent can take in one lifetime.

Wait, is Walmart cool now?
I have a question — a serious one, don't laugh: Is Walmart actually cool now? On TikTok and Instagram, people are showing off Walmart"hauls" — particularly for kids' clothing. These videos tend to be similar: excited shoppers going through a bag of clothes still on the hanger and admiring each item, often expressing surprise or shock that the piece of clothing is so cute or trendy, considering it's from Walmart. One TikTok creator who posts videos of fashion and home items mostly from Target recently posted a video of her cart at Walmart with the caption "WALMART IS THAT GIRL 👏🏽 ." In another video, a woman shows off the plastic tumbler glasses in the Walmart home section, marveling, "Doesn't this scream Anthro vibes?" nodding to much more expensive Anthropologie. In the comments on her video, someone writes, "Walmart is really stepping it up!" Maybe Walmart really is stepping it up. Breann Day, a mom of two, recently made one of those haul videos — not sponsored by Walmart, she confirmed to me — expressing surprise at the "elite" baby clothes she picked up. She held up a tiny pair of baby shorts. "Three dollars! Target could never!" "I like it more than Target," Day told me. She said a house brand at Target, Cat & Jack, seems to "never change," especially for boys' clothes. The selection for girls' clothes is still better at Target, she says, but "I can find just as cute — and cheaper — from Walmart." Personally, I can say that I, too, have found the appeal of Walmart's Wonder Nation kids' line. It rivals the slightly higher-priced Cat & Jack line from Target, which was previously a staple for my two kids. For instance: My daughter loves a poufy dress; at Walmart, there is a dress that comes in 14 different colors for $9.98; Target's Cat & Jack has a similar dress that comes in only three colors for $15.00. After her $27.99 light-up Elsa sneakers from Target sprang a hole, I replaced them with nearly identical non-light-up "Frozen" sneakers for $13.96 from Walmart. As I have shopped Walmart for kids' clothes, I've also picked up some clothing for myself. I have a pair of pajama sets from Walmart's Joyspun label, which is cheaper than the comparable version from Target. I even wore a floral print shirt dress from the Free Assembly line — a Walmart house brand! — to a casual outdoor wedding. Online clothing sales are up 23% this year at Walmart Something must be working when it comes to clothes at Walmart. Sales are up a lot over the past year. In 2017, Walmart hired Denise Incandela, an executive from Ralph Lauren and Saks Fifth Avenue, to attempt to revamp its fashion offerings. By 2020, Walmart had launched two apparel brands, Scoop and Free Assembly. Both had trendier clothes than dowdy Walmart had come to be known for. Incandela overhauled the in-store displays, decluttering racks, and using mannequins for a more department store vibe. ("Every time we put stuff on a mannequin, it sells," Incandela told Fortune in a recent interview.) Walmart didn't respond to my request for comment. In its most recent earnings call, US division CEO John Furner called out its fashion specifically, saying he was "really proud of the progress in apparel." This isn't the first time Walmart has tried decluttering to compete with Target. There was its 2009 "Project Impact" initiative, for instance. This time, something seems to be working. Walmart got me in one of its dresses, after all! EMARKETER, BI's sister company, reports that Walmart's e-commerce sales for the apparel, footwear, and accessories category were 23% higher in 2024 than in the previous year. And the analysts there are projecting 18% growth for 2025. In comparison, EMARKETER projects that Amazon will see 3.9% growth in 2025 for its clothing category. And Target will see only a 1.5% rise in its online apparel sales, they predict. Exactly what is driving Walmart's growth in clothes is a mix of things. Shoppers may be more price-sensitive overall, looking for clothing bargains. Tariffs had a bigger impact on retailers like Shein, which makes and ships much of its clothing directly from China. Wealthier shoppers come to Walmart for deals on eggs, and stay for the clothes Walmart has seen notable growth in its wealthier customers. In a recent call with investors, CFO John David Rainey told investors that one of the biggest contributors to its sales had been households that made more than $100,000 a year. He said high-income customers had also been looking for deals as inflation took a bite from all but the biggest of budgets. Lots of growth has come from its private-label grocery items — and food and beverage make up about 60% of Walmart's overall sales. Some of those people are browsing the aisles for clothes, too. Walmart is getting trendier in other categories, too It's not just clothing where Walmart seems to be trending. Its BetterGoods private-label foods are meant to rival Target's Good & Gather brand, and there are more high-end offerings in food, too. Eater reported that Walmart has started carrying some of the trendiest new pantry items. Packaged items that you'd expect to see at Whole Foods or shoppy-shops — things like Fly by Jing chili flake sauce, Magic Spoon cereal, Van Leeuwen ice cream, and Bachan's Japanese barbecue sauce. In the beauty category, Walmart has added more prestige brands, although its offerings in that category are much slimmer than Target, which has an Ulta partnership to bring more high-end makeup and hair care brands into stores. Target might be losing some sparkle This all comes at a time when Walmart's chief rival, Target, is struggling in some areas. For a long time, Target had the appeal of "Tar-zhay," a place you could get stylish items for cheap. Their well-publicized designer collaborations for clothing would often sell out quickly. Lately, Target seems to have lost some of its sparkle. On social media, people talked about boycotting the retailer over changes to its corporate DEI policies. Target's net sales were down about 2.8% in the first quarter of this year from the same time last year. Target's CEO at the time said he was "not satisfied" with its performance and had a plan for stronger growth. Walmart is stealing some of Target's thunder As for me and Walmart, I see the allure of its clothing. I come in for the cheapest organic milk around and always seem to end up browsing the new kids' clothes. And as a bargain fiend, my favorite part about wearing a Walmart dress to a wedding was telling people it was from — can you believe it? — Walmart.

Why Everyone Is Obsessed With The Viral Allison Plates
When 'Girl Dinner' took over TikTok in 2023 — thank you, Olivia Maher — it asked and answered a very important question: 'What if charcuterie boards but all the time?' It makes so much sense. Why limit yourself to one dish for dinner when you can languidly graze over the finest selections of meats, cheeses, breads, and other nourishing snack stuff? There's beauty in Girl Dinner's simplicity. All you have to do is open the fridge, pull out the good stuff, lay it out higgledy-piggledy on a table or counter, and commence to feast. You don't even need to sit down, although I suggest you do; sitting is always better than standing. And lying down is always better than sitting. So, maybe have your Girl Dinner while draped across a satin divan like a Roman aristocrat. As with all of the best TikTok trends, the community took this great idea and ran with it. First, we got the viral sound from creator Karma Carr that was used thousands of times by users sharing their own versions of Girl Dinner. These range anywhere from some of your more traditional-looking, charcuterie-inspired plates to things that are truly feral, like a bowl of elbow macaroni with peas. The latter is my personal, preferred version. There are other creators, however, that went the opposite route. They took the concept of the Girl Dinner and turned it into something you might find on a Pinterest board or on the menu of a Michelin-star restaurant. Enter the 2025 viral food trend: the Allison Plate. TikTok user @ally_wong has amassed quite a following — over half a million followers — by sharing her love of food and art. Her food creations do kind of give Girl Dinner vibes, but they differ quite a lot in spirit. Both are often an assemblage of random foods on a single plate. However, where Girl Dinner celebrates the random chaos that happens when you put all of your disparate favorites onto a dish (or dishes), the Allison Plate is far more intentionally constructed. Each meal places more emphasis on presentation than your typical Girl Dinner. Part of the reason Allison focuses so much on presentation is that she makes her own ceramic dishware. The literal plates used become just as important as the food that they hold. There are even some that seem intentionally made for the kind of food that will one day hold it. Take a look at the example below that has a specific, bagel-sized indentation. It's extremely perfect. Hey, you! Wanna cook 7,500+ recipes in step-by-step mode (with helpful videos) right from your phone? Download the free Tasty app right now. Besides presentation, the other major difference between a Girl Dinner and an Allison Plate is preparation. Several of Allison's dishes involve multiple, intricate steps. Take the TikTok below as just one example. She uses a leftover piece of salmon to make salmon cakes for ten minutes in the oven and "quickly" whips up an entire beet salad to go on her plate. While it looks fantastic, I imagine the average Girl Dinner would take less than ten minutes to prepare in its entirety. Still, there is far less preparation for an Allison Plate than your standard lunch or dinner, and it provides a wide array of nutritious snack foods for those 9–5 girls who don't want to just pick one thing to eat. And the Allison Plate really resonates with a lot of people on TikTok. Fans of hers try their hand at arranging their own platters, even going so far as to announce where they bought their plate. Many of the comments on Allison's videos point out two things. First is her pleasant, soft way of speaking as she gently places food onto her plate. It's like an ASMR version of food preparation. For real, I spent an extra hour just watching her food videos because I was lulled into a pleasant state of peace. See, Mom, TikTok isn't ALL brain rot. The second point from the comments is that her videos inspire the viewer to attempt their own plate and really be mindful of the foods they are choosing to eat. Many comments say that this intentionality helps them to have more balanced meals throughout the day. I want to make it clear that there is space for both Girl Dinner and the Allison Plate at the table. I think the wonderful thing about both trends is that they allow you to eat on your own terms. Some nights, you get home from a long day of work and all you can muster is a Girl Dinner. You get to pick out your favorite things from the big menu of life and just go nuts on them. That's freaking awesome. Maybe on the weekends, you have the time and energy to whip up an Allison Plate. You make a special trip to the grocery store, pick out all your favorites, maybe some things you've never tried before, and make it look like a picture from Martha Stewart's Instagram account. That, also, is freaking awesome. In my opinion, the overall goal of any meal should be that it makes you feel good. And that can look like a lot of different things. Sometimes it's a salad. Sometimes it's four hot dogs from a street vendor. No matter what it is, it should be celebrated. So, I am going to give my own Girl Dinner or Allison Plate a try this weekend. Here are some of my go-tos, no matter which I select: blue cheese, Smartfood popcorn, dried dates, Wheat Thins, shelled pistachios, Pillsbury flaky biscuits with honey butter, and an entire ice cream cake. Don't judge me, and let me know what you're putting on your plate in the comments.
