30 Things You'll Love For Your 'Lazy Chic' Summer Era
A layered necklace set that can easily turn any outfit from "barely tried" to "chic minimalist." Reviewers rave about their high quality at this price point, including the fact that they don't tarnish quickly! Plus, the chains are separate, so you have the freedom to arrange and adjust them to your liking. A square-neck cami reviewers *love* for the buttery soft, double-layered fabric, saying it feels like the high-end, expensive brands. Plus, that Y2K energy is always welcome for those summer 'fits. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress that'll have you looking absolutely sophisticated *and* staying comfy at the same time. Reviewers *love* how the material is just as soft as the trendy Skims version... and some even say it's better! Slingback heels, which blend comfort and elegance in the most gorgeous way. Their timeless style might just make them one of your most-used pairs — they'll take you from your daily office routine to casual lunch dates to evening drinks. They also give *major* Chanel vibes. Or some breathable pointed-toe flats ready to keep your feet cushioned and decked out in style. They look and feel as high-quality as Rothy's or Vivaia, without having to spend the extra $70–$100. The stretchy knit upper is comfy and trendy-looking (office days just got a whole lot better!) and you can toss 'em in the wash before they even have the *chance* to get stinky. A basic long-sleeve shirt, aka a super classic staple. It's clean-cut, versatile, and just what you need if it's too warm for a jacket but the nights remain chilly. A set of beautiful pearl hair clips for when you feel like you're having a bad hair day and just want to put your hair up in a hurry. This lets you do just that, but in a very ~pretty~ way. Plus, they come in a variety styles and sizes! A K-beauty Nooni tinted appleberry lip oil made with soothing apple water to help moisturize and soften your lips without giving you that icky sticky finish. It's the perfect way to give your lips a lovely, natural-looking flush in a snap. Or Nyx's Fat Oil Lip Drip, which might just kick that $40 Dior lip oil out of your cart for good. It's enriched with vegan squalane, raspberry, and cloudberry oils to deliver a surge of deep moisture for the soft, supple lips of your dreams — and all while delivering some serious shimmer! And? IT'S UNDER $10. Sold. A pair of oversize square sunnies to throw on for an instant style boost, no matter what you're wearing. The polarized lenses offer UV 400 protection, so not only will you look amazing, but your eyes will also be shielded from those harsh rays. Plus, reviewers say they look just like the ones from Bottega Veneta! A long-sleeve bodysuit because it's basically saying "Look at me! Look at me!" before you pull the trigger on that Skims bodysuit. The "Smoke Cloud" fabric is buttery smooth and *not* sheer, and the sweetheart neckline will add a little extra charm to your ensemble even if it's being paired with your fave faded jeans. And a lightweight, stretchy tank top bodysuit you can wear under your clothing as shapewear or pair with jeans to achieve an outfit that has countless ways to accessorize. 😍 It's seamless, breathable, and will hug your body *just* right. Glossier's Cloud Paint for a quick and easy way to add a rosy tint to your cheeks and give your lovely face some dimension. Plus! It's meant to be applied with your fingertips — no brush required! A win for the lazy blush lovers. A soft, oversize V-neck T-shirt that can be worn loose and untucked for a slouchy, carefree look or French-tucked into a pair of jeans when you want a chic vibe. Truly such a versatile wardrobe staple. A faux leather belt — this beauty costs less than a designer keychain, and it will get *10* times the use. Step aside, Gucci. This belt will tie a whole ensemble together and make it look runway-ready with barely any effort. An eyebrow soap kit that's dying to make your acquaintance if you want Anastasia-level results at a drugstore price. This helps you sculpt your brows so they have the exact shape, volume, and texture you want for those trendy, fluffy brows in just minutes. Reviewers rave about how well they stay in place, even after hours! A bottle of Glossier's Perfecting Skin Tint because it blends so effortlessly into your skin, it'll be like snapping your fingers and having a light, natural-looking filter pop onto your face. It's designed to even out discoloration and give you a dewy, skin-like finish without being as heavy (or annoying) as a traditional foundation. Or a L'Oreal glow-enhancing lotion — a reviewer-fave swap for pricier options like Glossier Futuredew and Drunk Elephant's D-Bronzi Drops. It'll have you looking glowy, sun-kissed, and ready for that lunchtime walk you planned your whole day around. The glycerin and shea butter in it also give it a mega hydrating factor. It's a lotion, glowy foundation base, and highlighter all in one bottle. A Revlon hot-air brush that'll save you more than double the time it takes you to style your hair with a traditional blowdryer and round brush. This magical tool will give you soft, smooth waves with just a few passes! A set of hair spin pins, which do the work of 20 bobby pins and help you create a quick and easy updo for those busy mornings when you're on your way out and just need your hair OUT of your face. A CZ tennis bracelet, because a small, twinkly accessory can add an upscale factor to any outfit. And just look at that Swarovski-like sparkle it gives off (no one would ever know that it's actually cubic zirconia). Live Tinted's Huestick Corrector, aka a beauty arsenal all-star. This baby is a 4-in-1 eye, lip, and cheek multistick that can be used as a buildable blush or lip color *and* helps neutralize dark spots and circles to help even out your skin tone. Check, check, and check! A popular long-lasting eyeliner stamp so that the nemesis of your makeup routine is no longer such a hard step. Say goodbye to wasting all your cotton balls (and all those extra minutes you could've used making your coffee) on failed attempts at a flawless eyeliner flick. This stamp will do it for you! A benzene-free mattifying dry shampoo powder if you just DON'T have time (or energy) for an "everything" shower. This is infused with biotin, black ginseng, and root-boosting powder and comes with a conveniently attached puff so that you can dab, dab, dab away all that excess oil and grease to instantly add some volume back into your hair. An air-dry leave-in cream to banish frizz and transform your curls into silky, irresistible locks. The best part? You don't even need a blow-dryer (or any heat-styling tools for that matter)! This cream works its magic as your hair air dries. An oversize knit sweater because a cozy article of clothing with a little extra touch of ~style~ is always needed for lounging year-round! It's perfect for pairing with jeans or tucking into a simple skirt. A lightweight jumpsuit — your trusty one-and-done ensemble, and reviewers say it's perfect for summer! Its elastic waist, keyhole back, and elegant off-the-shoulder design make for an effortlessly put-together look on your next night out or backyard BBQ. Oh, and it has over 35,000 5-star ratings! These glamorous reusable magnetic lashes that'll have you turning heads one blink at a time. Say goodbye to struggling with glue and wasted lashes — each set of these sticks right to the included eyeliner, so you can finally toss that goopy glue out. A floral crewneck long sleeve, because what's warm weather without some classic floral print? Whether you wear it with your fave pair of skinny jeans or pair it with a skirt and some boots, this versatile piece easily elevates your outfit. A pack of knotted stretchy headbands for those days when all you wanna do is throw your hair into a messy bun, but also want a way of adding some instant ~chic~ to it.

The Summer Shoes to Wear, According to Your Zodiac Sign
Which shoe trend to try this summer feels like too large a question to answer. Do you pick a boat shoe or a mesh shoe? A wedge or heeled flip-flops? Do you dare don toe-separating flats? Instead of scrolling through the internet for answers, it could be worth turning to the stars. While you should, of course, dabble in any trend that speaks to you, why not take guidance from your zodiac sign? For the believers in the crowd, what better tool to bring out your true personal style? And for the non-believers, no harm, no foul. What better style is there for the truly visionary Aquarians than some toe-separating shoes? They're truly made for a star sign intent on leading the pack (think Harry Styles and Alicia Keys), plus, their ergonomic credentials make sense for such an intellectual and open-minded crew. As the most adaptable of the water signs, it figures that Pisceans should try a shoe meant for nautical pursuits. Thanks to this sign's creativity, they are likely style stars, the most famous being one of the world's best dressed: Rihanna. And we know the best dressed out there are wearing boat shoes aplenty. Self-confident Aries women can pull off one of this season's trickiest trends: the heeled flip-flop. Pairing particularly well with similarly divisive capri pants, the Y2K heels demand an ever-present pedicure—ideal for the perfectionist Aries. The adventurous and beauty-craving Taureans should consider bungee cord sandals. Reliable and comfort-focused, they have the same traits as a classic Taurus woman. (Think: Gigi Hadid.) Miu Miu, of course, is the originator of this style, which work as well on the beach with board shorts and a T-shirt as they do with a silk maxi dress. The multifaceted Gemini woman is nothing if not sneakerinas personified. Geminis should bring their adaptable, outgoing, and flexible nature to their shoedrobe and try the hybrid style. Our favorite iterations of the ballet-trainer hybrid have to be the Puma Speedcat ballet trainers and the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 TGRS. Classic homebodies with a nurturing and traditional nature, Cancerians should be all about the clog for the summer of 2025 (and beyond). You can imagine one of our favorite Cancers, Pamela Anderson, pottering around her garden in some clogs, or even taking them front row. With everyone from Prada to Penelope Chilvers selling a pair this season, the only question is if you wear them with socks or without (we say both). Forever the lead character, Leos deserve nothing less than the glamorous wedge sandal. Recently repopularized by Chloé, there's something about wedge sandals that scream self-confidence and risk-taking—two of the Leo woman's strongest assets. You could dress down your wedge sandals with denim, but we think a Leo woman would go all out. Delicate, classic ballet shoes require care and attention, making them the perfect fit for a Virgo. They'll be sure to keep their flats polished, and they'll be creative enough to style them with some vintage denim and a beat-up Birkin. While Chanel ballets flats are, of course, the holy grail, we're partial to Mansur Gavriel's styles too. Known for their great sense of humor, Libras should try a pair of cheeky and youthful jelly sandals. Jelly sandals' nostalgic vibe are perfect for Libra's charming and romantic nature—plus, they have just enough quirk to pull off this off-kilter style. We love Loeffler Randall's Ryhs design, which are bejeweled and look particularly adorable with ankle socks and a midi dress. Intense and magnetic Scorpios are a perfect match for Tabi shoes. Be it in boot, ballet, Mary-Jane, or loafer styles, the weird and wonderful split-toe Tabis offer the same level of mystery that the Scorpio does. Margiela has the most iconic offerings, but Tabis styles exist outside of the label's realm. Try pairing with suiting for work to bring your witchy side to all parts of your life. If Miley Cyrus, Zoë Kravitz, and Janelle Monáe—all famous Sagittarians—were a shoe, they would likely be mesh flats. Beloved for their free-spirited and adventurous ethos, Sagittarians can handle the daring naked-but-not shoe trend. Best worn with floor-grazing trousers, Dear Frances and The Row have the mesh flats we've got on our wishlists. A Capricorn will take you places, as will a pair of perfectly sculpted skinny trainers. Supportive and realistic, this star sign is best represented by the reigning sneaker style of this season—with one eye on style and the other on practicality. Skinny trainers are everywhere, with our favorite styles coming from Puma, Nike, and Dries Van Noten.

8 of the best trending skirt styles to wear instead of a dress this summer
Bored of wearing a summer dress on repeat? A skirt promises to be just as easy and breezy. And, given the number of different styles we spotted on the spring/summer 2025 runways, it is likely to earn you extra style points, too. Sure, opting for a skirt does require thinking about what to wear on your top half. We totally get it's not quite the same throw-on-and-go, 'one and done' solution as a dress. But, sometimes it's worth putting in the extra effort and brain power needed to pull together a full look. That being said, you really can't go wrong with a graphic T-shirt (FYI, it's the new band tee) for a cool, casual look that's easily smartened up with a blazer added on top. We take back what we said, wearing a skirt *IS* an easy outfit option this summer. To make sure you're bang on trend, we've rounded up the best trending skirt styles to know about RN. All that's left to do is for you to choose your fighter and pick whichever shoes or sandals you'll be pairing your selected skirt with. Everyone's favourite Y2K trend shows no sign of slowing down, so if you have yet to get in on the look, consider now the time to try it. Like many of this season's skirt trends, bubble hems come in a few different lengths, meaning there's a style for everyone. You could even tick off two trends in one with a white bubble hem midi. Tap into the naked dressing aesthetic without going starkers by donning a lace skirt. Again, this design comes in a few different length and colour options, but we'd advise sticking to a neutral colour palette of black or white if the skirt's sheerness is already enough of a statement for you. As for how risqué you want your outfit to be, wear with a long top or sports jersey that covers your bottom, or embrace the transparency and wear a pair of big knickers underneath. The easiest trend to try is a simple white midi skirt. You may even have one in your wardrobe from last summer! Whether you opt for a just below the knee number or an ankle-grazing design, tiered or pleated, there are myriad different ways to style yours, depending on if you're heading to work or to a park picnic with friends. Consider this a crucial building block of your summer capsule wardrobe. Bohemian, floor sweeping silhouettes – think cascading tiers, romantic ruffles and just generally floaty, flowy and frilly – are reigning supreme right now thanks to the likes of Chloé and Saint Laurent, where a sense of '70s nostalgia infected the runways. Counteract the look by wearing with an oversized tee (as previously mentioned) or a boxy leather or suede jacket. Miu Miu led the way with preppy pleats parading down the SS25 runway, confirming this school girl favourite is back and all grown up. Whether you prefer a box-pleated mini or a swishy mid-length design in a more narrow knife-pleat, there's no limit to the number of options – from colourways to pleat width – available on the high street to make this look work IRL. Charli XCX is your style muse when it comes to asymmetric skirts, as our Brat queen can regularly be seen rocking high-low hemlines. Whether you go for a subtle dipped hem or a dramatic diagonal situation, make sure to pair it with something simple on top and plenty of attitude. Skirts are going statement! From 3D floral corsage adornments to beaded embellishments and all-over sequins, the brief here is more is more. The best part? You can get in on this look with just about every skirt length. Die-hard mini fans and exclusively midi gals unite! Courtesy of Saint Laurent, Jil Sander and Dries Van Noten's SS25 collections, double-layer skirts are officially a thing. The premise is simple: a second layer peeping out from the bottom of your hemline in either the same or a different fabric. We'll totally be trying to DIY this trend by wearing two skirts together. The key to nailing the look is to make sure the gap between the first and second skirts finishing is a few inches – just enough to clearly differentiate, but not too much it loses its unity and blatantly looks like you threw your shortest mini over your floor-sweeping maxi.

10 Times Arab Celebrities Rocked a Bold Pixie Cut
From Sherine's Y2K volume to Yasmine Raeis' cinematic reset, these Arab icons cropped it all off - long before it was trending. In the Arab world, the pixie cut emerged in striking, unexpected moments across stages and screens - unfazed, sharp, and undeniably flirty. Sherine Abdel Wahab, at the start of her career, stepped into the spotlight with a cropped, voluminous cut that defied the cascading hair ideals of the time. Yasmine Raeis also first appeared with the cut as a TV presenter, later wearing it in Fatat El Masnaʿ (Factory Girl). Over time, more Arab celebrities followed suit - each bringing their own context, character, and kind of vision to the cut. Today, we take a look at 10 Arab celebrities who embraced the pixie cut long before it became fashion's favorite comeback. Yasmine Raeis Raeis introduced the pixie as part of her onscreen presence in Fatat El Masnaʿ (Factory Girl), where its sculpted simplicity aligned with the film's quiet realism. Sherine Abdel Wahab Early in her career, Sherine Abdel Wahab wore a cropped, voluminous pixie with chunky blonde highlights—a clear departure from the era's long, high-gloss styles. Menna Shalaby In 2021, Shalaby opted for a tousled, low-maintenance pixie that matched her off-screen refusal of celebrity polish. Lekaa El Khameesy In 2019, El Khameesy shared her haircut process online—marking the shift as personal, public, and intentional. Assala Nasri Assala's pixie coincided with a period of public change. The styling was clean, composed, and clearly meant to mark a new phase. Ruby In 2018, Ruby wore a retro-leaning pixie with height and texture, styled in line with her reemergence in pop culture. Samira Said Said's short brown pixie in 2017 drew attention for its departure from her established look—neat, textural, and widely shared. Angham In the early 2000s, Angham's short crop quietly diverged from the prevailing hyper-feminine image of Arab pop icons. Buthaina Al Raisi Al Raisi's pixie in the 2020s combined sharp edges with soft volume—bridging regional glamor and more contemporary cues. Hanan Turk In Hob El Banat (2004), Turk's pixie served as a visual shift away from the ingénue roles she had been associated with.
