The summer season is off to a big start, with vacation getaways, outdoor adventures, and other fun events rolling in quickly. As a plus-size fashion editor, I’ve been looking to spice up my wardrobe just in time for the summer frenzy to begin. If you’ve found your way to this story, you’re probably in a…
I love a good sale, especially when it’s from a retailer that carries all my favorite brands at a variety of price points, such as Shopbop. I peruse Shopbop daily as part of my job, so when I heard that it was offering an extra 25% off select sale styles this week, I excitedly scrolled…
You think you’ve seen every possible trend come and go, but then one more pops back up and takes you by surprise. This is precisely the case with the sheer trend. I’ve taken note of the rise in the use of barely-there fabrics in decades past through to recent years, but for summer 2025, it…
(Image credit: @kaitlyn_mclintock) I have fine hair and an oily scalp, which means wash day comes more often than I would like it to. Usually, I have to shampoo my strands every two days…three if I’m really lucky. So, to me, dry shampoo isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. Over the years, I’ve tested…
A new lip product launch hits my inbox every three minutes—and yet, I’d argue none has maintained a cult following quite like the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm. Each new flavor-shade combination is somehow better than the next, the non-sticky formulas so smooth and hydrating that I (plus thousands of others) collect them like candy….
There’s one trending color that is stealing the spotlight this summer: butter yellow. There have been hints of the uplifting hue in the past few seasons, but the spring/summer 2025 shows really solidified the muted shade as the MVP of the season. This year, the color comes in its palest iteration—soft, warm, and undeniably chic—and…
If I had to describe my summer 2025 style in three words, they would be comfortable, cool, and coastal—the three Cs, if you will. I’m on the hunt for pieces that will do all the work for me. Breathable fabrics? Check. Light layers? Check. Endless styling options? Major check. Getting dressed during the summer isn’t…
A hefty chunk of my closet is from Nordstrom. I always find A+ items that become staples. In fact, I often look down at my outfit and realize that every piece came from the standout retailer. And that’s what’s coming your way below. I put together stylish summer outfits that feature products exclusively from Nordstrom….
Now that the spring/summer 2025 collections have landed in stores and made their way into fashion people’s closets and onto the street, it’s time to report on what is actually resonating in the wild. Let’s face it—not everything we loved on the runway will translate into a practical item worthy of our already-maxed-out closets. We…
I grew up with the greats of late ’90s and early 2000s pop culture—the Spice Girls, B*Witched, and Destiny’s Child. Girl groups were at their peak, but their music, personalities, and killer style inspired an entire generation for years to come. Now, girl groups are back in a big way. If you watched Pop Star…
