I'm on the hunt for a new outdoor dining set, and I really have high hopes of finding the table I want to coincide with these chairs. The Bayou Breeze Outdoor Dining Side Chairs (Set of 4) is perfect for small decks, looks incredibly chic (it's giving alfresco coffee shop vibes) and is on a pretty sweet sale.

'You know when you go out to an Italian restaurant and your wine comes in the most exquisite glasses you wish you had at home? Bring that same feel and aesthetic to your own dinner table with this luxurious stemmed wine glass set,' Meaghan Roche, senior commerce SEO manager, shared. 'Bonus points: these glasses are dishwasher-safe!'
Not only are these glasses a team favorite, but they look incredibly chic. Undoubtedly, you'll receive plenty of compliments on them during your next hosting moment.

'Lighting used to be the last on my priority list, as home improvement goes, Miska Salemann, commerce writer/reporter, admitted. 'Now that my taste is a little more refined, I know the power of a good pendant. Something simple that adds a little bit of luxury to any space.'
There are so many styles to choose from, but Salemann finds this moody dome lantern particularly dreamy.

Add a touch of modern edge to your space with a runner to change up your hallway or place in the kitchen.
'It's pet- and kid-friendly, which in translation means easy to wash and holds up well overtime,' Emma Sutton-Williams, commerce writer/reporter, said, recommending the addition to any floor of your home.

Nothing beats the breezy, effortlessly luxurious feel of linen sheets.
'Quality linen is like the silver fox of textiles — cool under pressure, gets better with age and looks straight out of the south of France,' Kendall Cornish, commerce writer/editor, shared. 'These AllModern sheets are exactly the kind of high-quality investment that only gets better with every wash, and I'd confidently throw money at them knowing they'll probably outlive me.

'During this year's Way Day sale, I'm eyeing this faux potted plant to add some height and color to my living room,' Roche said. 'With hundreds of great reviews and four different size options, this is an instant add-to-cart.'
For less than $100, our team is amazed at how realistic-looking this faux greenery looks, too.

'This cute 3-piece set can fill out any corner nicely and add to the space,' Sutton-Williams shared. 'It comes in five different shades and seats two. What more do you want at this price?'
Not to mention, it's great for small spaces and adds a touch of bohemian flair to any outdoor space.

'I love a good earth-tone,' Salemann said. 'Anything rustic, muted, natural, or ceramic can make a house feel like a home.'
If you're shopping for a piece of decor on a budget, the Post Wanted team recommends going for this terracotta table vase.
Wayfair
'I would buy this SMEG citrus juicer solely because it looks like it belongs on Sophia Loren's kitchen counter,' Cornish said. 'And if it makes freshly squeezed orange juice taste half as good as it would look on my countertop, I'll never drink from a carton again.'
Cornish is a fan of SMEG appliances already, so this little summer essential is next on her list. 'It's chic, it's sleek, and honestly, buying it would make me feel far more sophisticated than my actual juice-consumption habits warrant,' she added.
Wayfair
Woven, geometric rugs will probably never go out of style. This one comes in an all-over khaki hue that screams sunroom. Besides, an indoor/outdoor rug is such a smart investment.
'Throw it on the patio when the weather gets warmer, or swap it out with another rug if you get bored with your interior decor,' Salemann said, recommending this versatile option. The deal is also one of Wayfair's very best right now.
Wayfair
'This is the nicest bar cart I've ever owned and gets more compliments than my hair (which is pretty cute some days),' Sutton-Williams noted. 'It looks elegant and has a great organizational layout.'
Better yet, if you love the look of gold finishes and a photogenic display for all of your hosting endeavors, this is the on-sale grab to shuffle into your Wayfair cart.
Wayfair
Another bar cart on sale that we love: the Joss & Main Domenica Bar Cart.
'It's giving Italian summer,' Cornish suggested. 'Imagine rolling this chic little cart out stocked with Aperol, olives, and overpriced sparkling water for all your guests (while you traipse around in a linen caftan unironically and laugh in slow motion). If you're looking for something to make your patio feel less suburban and more Amalfi, this is it.'

Grounds for celebration: 38% off Amazon's No. 1 self-cleaning espresso machine
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. There are two types of people in this world: those who make espresso at home, and those who pretend they'll start next week. I've spent most of my adult life in the second camp — until I saw this. The Philips 3200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine. It's currently 38% off on Amazon, which brings it down to under $500 for a legit countertop robot barista. No pods. No compromises. And no excuses. Here's what's wild: it's the No. 1 best-selling espresso machine on Amazon right now, with over 3,000 people buying it this month alone. That's a movement; a coup against watery drip coffee and $7 oat milk lattes. And Philips isn't some start-up slinging sponsored content, it's a household name with a reputation for making sleek machines that actually do what they say they will. What this one says is: 'Push a button. I've got it from there.' It grinds the beans. It brews the espresso. It froths the milk. It even has a self-cleaning system, because your mornings are messy enough without dismantling a portafilter. People are ditching their daily coffee runs and investing in this fully automatic setup instead — which, when you factor in the discount, kind of pays for itself. Amazon The Philips 3200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine offers five coffee drinks at the touch of a button: espresso, coffee, Americano, cappuccino, and latte macchiato. Its built-in ceramic grinder is designed to last up to 20,000 cups, with 12 grind settings for maximum control. The LatteGo milk system delivers silky froth without tubes — just a two-part design that rinses clean in seconds. An intuitive touch display lets you customize strength, quantity, and temperature, while the removable brew group simplifies deep cleaning.

Shein Fined 1 Million Euros by Italian Competition Authority for Misleading Sustainability Claims
MILAN — Shein has been fined by the Italian Competition Authority, or AGCM, for alleged misleading and omissive green claims, marking the second financial sanction by a European authority in a little more than a month. The Italian authority is imposing sanctions of 1 million euros on the ultra-fast-fashion giant claiming that statements available on its website and other informative or promotional online pages were 'in some cases vague, generic and/or overly emphatic; in others, misleading by omission or deception.' More from WWD Giorgio Armani Pushes Back at Italian Competition Authority's 3.5M-euro Sanction EXCLUSIVE: Fashion Rental Reduces Environmental Impact, According to New Study From The Volte Crocs Makes Commitment To UNICEF Mentoring Program Contacted by WWD, Shein issued a statement saying: 'Shein actively cooperated with the Italian Competition Authority (AGCM) throughout the entire proceeding, promptly taking all necessary steps to address the concerns raised as soon as it became aware of them. We have strengthened our internal review processes and improved our website to ensure that all environmental claims are clear, specific and fully compliant with applicable regulations.' The AGCM refers particularly to Shein's sustainability claims on the 'Social Responsibility,' '#SheinTheKnow' and 'evoluShein' pages. In the latter the authority uncovered misleading information on circular economy practices and product recyclability, deeming them 'false or at least confusionary' The authority also highlighted that descriptions and promotional copy about the 'evoluShein by Design' line emphasized the use of 'green fibers' without detailing their sustainability credentials nor highlighting that they represent a small portion of the Shein product offering. 'These claims may lead consumers to believe not only that the 'evoluShein by Design' collection is made exclusively from 'eco-friendly' materials, but also that its products are fully recyclable — a notion that, given the fibers used and the recycling systems currently available, is not accurate,' the AGCM stated. It also refuted Shein's ambition to reduce GHG emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, stating that they are contradicted by an increase in the e-tailer's emissions in 2024. To this end, the 2024 Sustainability and Social Impact Report released in June revealed growing carbon emissions. In particular, transport-related emissions rose 13.7 percent year-over-year to 8.54 million metric tons of CO2, largely due to increased reliance on air freight. This increase occurred despite Shein's stated commitment to optimizing logistics and shifting to lower-emission transport options. Shein made modest progress reducing its own Scope 1 and 2 emissions, such as offices and logistics centers, primarily through the adoption of solar power. But the company confirmed that Scope 3 emissions from its 7,200 contracted suppliers and manufacturers are still by far the largest share of its footprint. Shein said it plans to reduce Scope 3 emissions by 25 percent by 2030, using 2023 as a baseline. However, the company emphasized that progress 'depends entirely' on whether its independent suppliers choose to implement upgrades without direct funding from Shein. The company said it focuses on 'encouraging' partners to adopt more energy-efficient methods. The development in Italy comes as the ultra-fast-fashion giant's business practices are increasingly under scrutiny in many countries. For example, France has been taking aim at Shein from multiple angles. Last month, the country's anti-trust authority, the French Directorate General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Fraud, or DGCCRF, fined the ultra-fast-fashion retailer a record 40 million euros claiming that Shein's pricing practices were deceptive, offering customers 'discounts' that didn't exist. In June, the French Senate passed a bill targeting Shein and other 'ultra-fast-fashion' players, including Temu, by proposing a tax on small parcels shipped from outside the European Union ranging from 2 to 4 euros per package. The fee is intended to slow the influx of packages from Chinese platforms to France. The bill needs to be validated by the EU, then will return to the Assembly where a stronger version passed in 2024, for a reconciliation process and final vote. That is expected to take place around October. A few days later, Shein executive chair Donald Tang took to the stage at Paris' VivaTech conference to defend the company's business model. During his appearance, he said Shein is 'not fast fashion,' instead it is 'fashion-on-demand' and only produces what the market wants. Meanwhile, last month Shein agreed to a settlement of $700,000, according to Napa County District Attorney Allison Haley, for a consumer protection lawsuit for unlawful shipping delays filed in Napa County Superior Court. According to the lawsuit, Shein had allegedly engaged in unlawful business practices by not properly notifying customers of shipping delays or offering them refunds when their orders were not shipped on time. The AGCM has been particularly active on the fashion front as of late. As reported, last week the Italian authority fined the Giorgio Armani company with 3.5-million-euro sanctions for alleged misleading advertising linked to sustainability statements contradicted by uncovered evidence of supply chain auditing negligence.

Everton is close to sign Chelsea's midfielder Dewsbury-Hall on a permanent deal as the Blues are preparing for few exits before the window ends. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on August 4, 2025, 19:07 IST Everton is close to sign Chelsea's midfielder Dewsbury-Hall on a permanent deal as the Blues are preparing for few exits before the window ends. Chelsea have got few midfielder that doesn't fit into Maresca's plan, and thus, they are planning to offload them. Everton are reportedly closing in on a permanent deal to sign Chelsea midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, as the Blues prepare for a few exits before the summer transfer window shuts. The experienced man who joined Chelsea from Leicester City could be on the move again amid tactical reshuffling under new manager Enzo Maresca. Sources suggest that Dewsbury-Hall is not part of Maresca's long-term plans at Stamford Bridge, despite having previously worked under the Italian at Leicester. With Chelsea's midfield already stacked with options and a few players not fitting into the manager's system, the club is actively looking to trim the squad. Everton, meanwhile, are eager to bolster their midfield and view Dewsbury-Hall as a player who can add creativity and energy in the middle of the park. The Toffees have been monitoring the situation closely and are now confident of securing a deal before the transfer deadline.
