I’ve Traded In Sweatpants For Bike Shorts, and My Favorite Aerie Pair Is 40% Off Today
April 25, 2020 at 03:40PM I have admittedly bought tons of sweatsuit sets, but it’s already getting too warm in my apartment for the head-to-toe cozy look. My next loungewear investment is definitely bike shorts. Not only is the style on-trend, but it’s also incredibly comfy. I’ve seen stars like Emily Ratajkowski and Kim Kardashian rocking the look, so I was excited to try it out for myself. I’ve tested out a few options now, but my hands-down favorite is the Aerie Real Me Wrap Bike Short ($18, originally $30). The fabric is buttery-soft and the V-shaped waistband is incredibly flattering across my stomach. They come in sizes XXS to XXL – I’m wearing a large, for reference. Besides this pretty “washed brick” shade, they are also offered in black, brown, and sage green. I am now a devoted fan of Aerie’s high-waisted bike shorts. Read on to check out all the styles the site offers, then invest in a few pairs for yourself. They’re all on sale, so take advantage of the discounts.

These Dreamy Fashion Instagrams Will Bring a Smile to Your Face When You Need It the Most
April 24, 2020 at 11:05PM While I haven’t made the switch from sweatpants to “real” clothes just yet, I have found myself scrolling through Instagram and daydreaming about things I can’t wait to wear (and do) when all of this comes to an end. While the future of so many of our favorite designers, especially small brands, is unknown due to the coronavirus pandemic, they need our support now more than ever. Even if you can’t buy anything, you can still support them in other ways, like showing a little love on social media. Lately, there’s something about seeing these designers put out dreamy imagery of pieces they’re proud of that just hits different – and it has sparked joy in me. One such example? Milan-based brand Les Petits Joueurs, which has an array of gorgeous, crystal-embellished bags and heels that have a fun, nostalgic feel to them. Watching Jacquemus’s video of the brand’s little mini Chiquito bags singing Adele’s “Someone Like You” made me LOL, and Entireworld’s video of models hugging it out hit home for me. Keep reading to see 10 things I added to my Instagram saved folder this past month that have brought a smile to my face when I’ve needed it the most.

Gigi Hadid Wore This Understated Outfit For Her 25th Birthday, and We Love Her For It
April 24, 2020 at 09:24PM Gigi Hadid kept it real during her birthday this year. The supermodel, who just turned 25, celebrated her big day in a superunderstated outfit. Gigi has been self-isolating with her family at their farm in Pennsylvania, and for the joyous occasion, Bella Hadid posted a series of images on Instagram calling Gigi her “best friend, leader, teacher, and partner in crime.” While in the past Gigi has gone all out for her birthdays (remember her denim party look last year or the glimmering golden Versace number she wore for her 23rd?), she kept things more mellow while being at home. For her 25th, Gigi wore an outfit that reminded us of Steve Jobs in the best way possible. She wore a simple black turtleneck with a matching cardigan on top. She finished her birthday look with high-waisted mom jeans, a thin black belt, and ankle boots. Gigi was all smiles with Bella as they held up balloons that said “25.” Her family and best friend Leah McCartney, who has also been staying with her, even made her a bagel-shaped birthday cake, which looked absolutely unreal. Talk about cake goals! Keep reading to get a closer look at Gigi’s understated outfit from all angles.
