It’s been a strong year for haircut trends — and we’re only halfway through. From “ghost layers” (invisible layers that add movement to fine hair without an obvious grow-out) to the “kicked” bob (a shoulder-skimming cut with chic, flipped ends), there’s something for everyone. As we head into summer, a wave of new cuts and…

We love the commitment that comes with assembling a never-leaving-the-couch outfit — from trendy, coordinated sweatsuits to throw-on-and-go jumpsuits. But, while those fashion-forward efforts are worthy of applause, let’s be real: leggings are the true wardrobe MVP, even when venturing out. That’s why we’re always on the lookout for the absolute best pairs to shimmy…
