26 Breathable Pieces Of Clothing That Won't Cling To Your Body This Summer
A wide-leg pants and matching blouse set that'll be the only thing you wanna wear on your upcoming tropical vacay.
A pair of high-waisted quick-dry running shorts so you can focus on setting a new PR instead of worrying about wedgies, chafing, and swampy shorts.
A V-neck backless dress if you like to be the center of attention but don't want said attention to come at the cost of your comfort. This little lace number is super soft on the skin and has a cute bow-tie design that'll earn you "oohs" and "ahhs" from every angle.
A must-have crochet button-down for all your upcoming tropical vacations. Wear it to the hotel breakfast cafe, the beach, or for a day of exploring and bask in the warmth of everyone's compliments and not a heavy fabric that'll make you sweat.
A pair of lightweight slitted trousers to air things out so your pant legs don't turn into a swamp.
A halter neck midi dress, because it's head-to-toe chicness in a breathable and comfortable cotton fabric. You will absolutely catch me wearing this, sitting at a sidewalk cafe, sipping an Aperol spritz in the summer sun.
A light and breezy cardigan that'll keep you covered (esp. useful if you're trying to avoid sunburned shoulders!) without making you feel like a potato baking in tin foil.
A matching two-piece set so getting dressed on vacation is so easy peasy.
A pair of baggy overalls if your ideal summer wardrobe can best be defined as "art teacher chic." Reviewers swear the loose, flowy, and breathable cotton linen fabric is incredibly comfy and lightweight on the skin.
A pair of flowy shorts for all the twirls and skips that this *b-e-a-utiful* weather makes you want to do. These shorts *look* like a skirt, but don't worry, you won't end up accidentally flashing anyone.
A lace V-neck tank top to act as the cherry on top of your "this looks like I'm trying, but I'm really not" first date outfit.
A backless maxi dress, because it would truly be a shame to deprive your Instagram followers of a few photos of you in this stunning number. The open back allows for maximum cooling, so you don't look like a hot, sweaty mess in every vacay photo.
A tank top with a darling frill trim and tassels that's sweeter than a cone of vanilla ice cream with rainbow sprinkles.
A pair of rolled denim shorts so your outfits have the durability and edge you want when you reach for jeans *without* the wedgie or feeling like your legs are approximately 20 degrees warmer than every other part of your body.
A pair of boxer shorts if you've been itching to recreate the oversized sweater and striped boxer shorts combo you've saved on Pinterest.
A flight attendant-approved off-shoulder jumpsuit comfy enough for traveling (and snoozing) yet stylish enough for wearing out multiple times during your trip — even if your trip is just from your bed to the couch.
A classic oversized button-down to achieve that effortless look even when it's 90 degrees outside. You can also wear over tank tops for a bit of extra warmth when the sun sets — or more likely when you walk into a restaurant and they're blasting the AC, which, like, I'm not complaining, but it makes it hard to dress for the day, OK?
A pair of flowy shorts with a scallop trim, because they'll literally be a breath of fresh air for your legs in the sea of too-tight denim shorts.
A midi skirt that'll infuse a little Phoebe Buffay vibes into your wardrobe. Or grunge it up with some chunky boots!
A sleeveless turtleneck so you can go sans sleeves at the office without looking sloppy. It's also pretty handy for not freezing to death on those days that the AC is blasting in the office (although that's pretty much every day).
A crushed silk flared skirt if, truthfully, you want to make a statement with your outfit while exerting as little brain power as possible. This'll glam up any plaine white tee without adding extra layers that'll just make you hot and sweaty.
A semi-sheer shrug for channeling your inner '90s baby (IYKYK!!) while also adding a smidge of warmth on a chilly day. And several reviewers say it's handy to have when you're traveling!
A goes-with-everything round neck crop T-shirt to replace the days of standing in front of your closet for 30 minutes contemplating what to wear.
A pair of tapered drawstring joggers because wide leg linen pants just aren't your thing...but joggers? Now that's a silhouette you can get behind.
A pleated polka-dot midi skirt with a comfy elastic waistband and pockets (!) so you're covered without feeling weighed down.
A short-sleeve T-shirt dress with a cute waist-cinching bow if you love a little figure-hugging number but don't want the suffocating embrace of a heavy fabric.
You now that your summer wardrobe is complete:

Banking for a baby? How to budget for your bundle of joy without going broke
Having a baby or thinking about it? Congratulations! Now, hold on to your wallet because the wild ride is just beginning. Here are the practical costs to plan for when bringing home baby. And the ones that most parents completely forget about — partly because of sleep deprivation, but mostly because these financial matters are not cute or cuddly. When I was pregnant with my first a few years ago, my Instagram feed was chock-a-block pushing baby-related content to buy: clothing, breast pumps, strollers (with cooling fans and shocks), cribs, mattress pads, baby toys, bassinets, swaddles, pillows, and, and, and. I even received a checklist with more than 50 items to buy for the baby, from one of my mom's friends. It was overwhelming, and when I feel like that, I slow down to think. Do I really need that? What can wait? There are really only a handful of essentials, including a car seat (the hospital will check that you have this before they release you), stroller, a safe place for baby to sleep (bassinet or crib), a place to sit and feed the baby, diapers, comfortable clothes for baby and birthing mother, a thermometer, bottles, a pump and formula (if breastfeeding isn't an option). Over time you'll need larger clothes, a safe place to put the baby down for a few minutes and likely a backpack carrier, but time is on your side for those items. A recent poll found 90 per cent of Canadians want to stay in their homes as they age, but only If your budget is tight, be strategic with costs. If you have a gift registry, add the essentials to it, and scour the 'gently used' second-hand market for any large items like a crib. Borrow from friends, and if you've got access to good quality hand-me-downs, embrace them. This will save you hundreds — if not thousands — of dollars. This is just the beginning of the costs related to babies, so overspending on non-essentials takes money away from other financial priorities. The first of these is the price of parental leave. Unless your employer has a benefits plan to top up your income while on leave, most parents take a serious pay cut for the 12-to-18 months you're off. The Canadian government's Employment Insurance program helps close this income gap, if you are eligible, and maxes out at 55 per cent of a parents' earnings, up to $695 a week. Most parents use savings to cover the difference between their costs (rent or mortgage, car payments, groceries) and EI, plus any employer top-up money. This is why I advise my community to start saving before the baby arrives. Otherwise, they could end up thousands short, and be forced to take on debt. When done thoughtfully, downsizing can shore up retirement savings and ease pressure on one's This reduced income scenario needs to be worked into your 'once-baby-arrives' budget The second important cost is insurance. It's advisable for parents to increase their life, disability and critical illness insurance along with health insurance (and don't forget to add the baby to whatever benefits plan you already have once they arrive). If something happens to a parent, there's way more at stake — a child's long-term well-being and the ability for a parent to parent well. Review the coverages you already have with a broker, and add anything that's missing. A quick note on health insurance: many plans now offer fertility treatment coverage. If you know you want to start a family it can be worth exploring this coverage option should you need it. The third cost of getting a will. New will-making technologies through companies like and can help reduce those costs at around $100 for a digital will. If anything happened to you, your will directs the executor who would care for your children, how your money would be managed and when it would eventually flow to your child. Contributing to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is another great move to start once your baby is born. Budget how much you can afford each month and set up regular payments. Those 17 years will fly by and you'll be surprised at how much you've banked for your child's higher education. And there's free money! Not only do your contributions grow tax-free, the government chips in 20 per cent on the first $2,500 saved each year (up to $7,200 total) through the Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG). Even small monthly contributions can grow significantly — a huge gift for your child's future. When you become a new parent, your budget will likely see new line items, typically grouped under a 'baby' category. This includes recurring costs like creams, diapers, wipes, food, and any necessary prescriptions. The importance of money in a relationship is right up there with sex, trust, family and work. Beyond baby-specific expenses, parents may also find themselves spending more on groceries, physio, medicine, and even audiobooks for those long stroller walks. All of these new costs should be incorporated into your budget. If there doesn't seem to be enough money to go around for all of this, it's important to see where you can cut back or cut out other expenses to make room. Welcoming a baby means welcoming a whole new financial reality — one that's manageable with a thoughtful budget, smart planning, and a clear focus on what truly matters for your growing family.

I've always loved golf but it's been a love/hate relationship which I'm sure we can all relate to at times lol. My scores were always tied into my self worth and playing just wasn't that much fun. Until this year. I'm so passionate about the game and I should've shared more of that on here! I'm going to do that moving forward.'

Beyoncé and Jay-Z become the main event as Paris crowns celebrity the world's hottest trend
PARIS (AP) — If any force dominated the global fashion industry this season — eclipsing fabric, form and even the wildest silhouettes — it was the spectacle of celebrity. In a year marked by global anxiety and a hunger for fantasy, star power flooded Paris Fashion Week, turning runways into gladiator arenas where A-list icons, K-pop idols and digital megastars became the main event. Beyoncé and Jay-Z didn't just attend Louis Vuitton's blockbuster show — they became the show. As they swept into the Pompidou Center, cameras flashed and phones shot skyward. Before the first look even hit the runway, images of the couple ricocheted across the globe. K-pop idols like J-Hope and Jackson Wang livestreamed their arrival to millions, while crowds outside flooded social feeds with every glimpse of a star. As the industry's spring season wraps up Sunday, it's clear: Fashion's global audience is focused less on what's worn and more on who's wearing it. This interplay between celebrity and fashion is hardly new, but in 2025, the desire for escapism and star-driven spectacle is peaking like never before. 'It's about celebrity clickbait, and it's at a tipping point now. Celebrities have replaced the designers and stylists as the tastemakers,' said Anna Barr, a fashion magazine editor who attended shows. Beyoncé's appearance this week encapsulated a truth that every major brand — from Louis Vuitton to Dior, Hermès to Saint Laurent — now understands: The real front row isn't in Paris, but on Instagram, TikTok and Weibo. And nothing sells quite like a star. The pop star's head-to-toe denim — custom Louis Vuitton by Pharrell Williams — wasn't just viral. Within 24 hours, clips of her arrival amassed millions of views on TikTok, outpacing even Louis Vuitton's own campaign content. When Williams presented her with a Speedy bag straight from the runway in the Paris dusk, the moment went viral — underlining that Beyoncé isn't just an attendee, but a face of Louis Vuitton's creative vision. But even as Beyoncé's look became the week's most shared image, her presence in Paris also sparked debate: a Buffalo Soldiers T-shirt she wore during her 'Cowboy Carter' tour ignited criticism from some Indigenous and Mexican communities, reminding the industry that every viral moment can be a flash point. This is the new dynamic of luxury: The most coveted runway seat is now in your hand, and what matters most isn't just what you see, but who you see wearing it. What once was a private preview for buyers and editors is now a worldwide entertainment event. Designers don't just stage shows — they produce spectacles. Williams, Louis Vuitton's showman-in-chief, turned his runway into a snakes-and-ladders fantasy with a guest list to match: Beyoncé, Jay-Z, K-pop royalty J-Hope and Jackson Wang, reggaeton star Karol G, and Hollywood names like Bradley Cooper and Mason Thames. Each arrival triggered waves of posts and stories — making the crowd as newsworthy as the collection itself. The modern runway has become a stage for celebrity, where the applause is measured in views and viral moments, and the line between performer and spectator disappears. No other force is shifting menswear trends faster than K-pop. This season, stars like J-Hope, Jackson Wang, GOT7's Bambam, and NCT's Yuta were everywhere, livestreaming shows and igniting fashion frenzies from Seoul to Sao Paulo. These idols are both tastemakers and trend translators, instantly transmitting what they see in Paris to millions of fans. Their attendance has become a commercial event in itself, driving the adoption of new styles on a global scale. Even the clothes themselves now chase celebrity. Beyoncé's ' Cowboy Carter ' moment and Louis Vuitton's nod to Western style sent cowboy hats, flared denim, and rhinestone shirts trending worldwide. Brands scramble to turn these viral moments into wearable trends — knowing that what Queen Bey wears in Paris will be copied in malls and on apps within weeks. 'We make fashion, but we're a house of travel,' Williams told reporters. In truth, it's the celebrity's journey through fashion that matters most. The old fashion cycle is gone. It's been said before. Where trends once took months to trickle down, now a celebrity-worn look can reach the high street soon after the show lights dim. TikTok and fast fashion brands move at the speed of the repost. At Hermès, even the discreet luxury of woven leather tees and wide trousers took on new meaning as athletes and music stars documented their attendance. Their posts quickly turn exclusive details into mass-market 'must-haves.' Shein and Temu, the global fast-fashion juggernauts, have weaponized the viral moment — turning celebrity sightings into shoppable trends worldwide, sometimes in a matter of hours. The result: What debuts on the Paris catwalk can show up in online shopping carts from Atlanta to Addis Ababa almost instantly. Beneath the celebrity glow, classic trends endure. Streetwear is still king, with oversized silhouettes, soft tailoring and activewear influences everywhere from Dior to Dolce & Gabbana. The Hermès 'cool city guy' and Dolce's pajama dressing — rumpled but rich — are direct answers to how men want to live and move now. But even these trends go mainstream through star power, not just design. The models might debut the look, but it's the front-row faces who make it stick. The celebrity ascendancy isn't just a front-row phenomenon — it's woven into the industry itself. When LVMH 's Bernard Arnault tapped Williams, a global pop icon, to lead Louis Vuitton menswear in 2023, it wasn't just a creative risk. It was a declaration that celebrity now runs the show. All this spectacle reflects a bigger shift. Fashion isn't just about what's in — it's about who's in the room, and who's watching. At Armani in Milan, at Saint Laurent in Paris, at every show, a galaxy of K-pop, Hollywood, and music stars now drive the narrative. For Gen Z and Alpha, the runway is no longer about aspiration — it's about participation, sharing, and living in the moment. The 'show' has become the product. In 2025, the hottest look in men's fashion isn't a garment — it's the spectacle. In the world's most-watched runway season, celebrity is the new couture, and every scroll puts you in the front row.
