The lululemon Summer Sale 2025 Has the Best Deals on the Internet
Not gonna lie, chat, my eyes have been glued to my laptop screen for the past 36 hours hunting down the best Amazon Prime Day deals out there. (Currently: in need of seven espresso shots.) And while some are a little blah, a lot of them are actually pretty solid. But here's the thing: the lululemon Summer Sale happening right now might have Prime Day beat. Bold statement, but I said what I said! From now to July 21, iconic styles like Align Pant leggings, Scuba jackets, and the Everywhere Belt Bag are up to 50% off. This is not a drill! You'll also find major markdowns on jackets, hoodies, tanks, and more. Keep scrolling to see for yourself—honestly, this might be the best thing to happen to me all week (and I could use a week's worth of sleep, so that says something). First up: Leggings, because, duh. From flared to form-fitting, these viral high-waisted styles are the perfect solution for days when you just don't feel like wearing, well… actual pants. Great for workouts or lounging around, they're incredibly soft and stretchy, and so comfy, they seriously feel like pajamas. Ahem, you're gonna need a bra and/or top to go with your brand spanking new pair of leggings—it's only right! Take your pick of the litter because you've got a variety of tanks, long-line bras, and shirts to choose from in a wide range of colorways and designs. I fear my cart is gonna be full, considering some of the brand's cutest outerwear is seriously marked down right now. Just saying, it would be a crime if you didn't snag a Scuba jacket while the price is this low (a rare find!). I'll definitely be treating myself to the utility vest because I'm obsessed. And yep, folks, I can't believe it myself. The viral Everywhere Belt Bags that literally every human being on this floating rock has or is dying to get their hands on are in stock and on sale! (I have my eyes on the clear one that's so ideal for concerts and festivals.) Even better? Other must-have accessories like the brand's fan-favorite wristlet, hats, and socks are also marked down.

Shop This Viral Pajama Set That's 50% Off for Prime Day
Call me crazy, but even at almost 29, I still barely feel like an adult. Sure, the monthly bills that hit my bank account like a truck are a harsh reminder that I am, in fact, grown. But a sleek, matching pair of pajamas? That's the kind of thing that always makes me feel like I've got my ish together. And I'll happily buy more than necessary just to gaslight myself into believing I've got everything under control. So you can imagine my excitement when I saw that the Amazon Prime Day pajama deals are overflowing with chic options. But one in particular that stood out? Oh, just this super cute short-sleeve and shorts set for legit 50% off. Yep, from now through July 11, it's literally priced at under $20. Yeah, I know, I can't even believe I found this gem! When I say this might be the softest thing you'll ever wear, I'm not kidding. Nearly 8,000 enthusiastic reviewers have raved about how cozy and plush it is, earning it an almost perfect five-star rating. And it gets even better: It's also super stretchy and breathable, thanks to its thick, elastic drawstring waistband that makes this find both ultra-comfortable and flexible.

I Can't Stop Shopping the Amazon Prime Day Exercise Dresses Deals
Even though I love dressing up on the daily, I can't lie, I have my lazy days. Sue me! Just because I'm a shopping editor and die-hard fashion girlie doesn't mean I'm not a regular human who'd rather roll out of bed and live in comfort over squeezing into a pair of tight jeans. I'm just a girl! Luckily, thanks to Amazon Prime Day, my favorite throw-on-and-go solution (aka exercise dresses that look chic and feel like loungewear) is majorly on sale right now. And trust me, you've got plenty to choose from. Whether you're into pleated skirts, criss-cross straps, zip-up fronts, or bold colorblocking, there's a style (or five) for you. Mind you, I'm not just talking small discounts, either—some of the top-rated picks are more than 40% off during this four-day event. Go see for yourself! Like most workout dresses, these are designed to keep you cool and supported all day long. Whether you're hitting the gym, running errands, or just not in the mood to wear pants (same, same), these have you covered, thanks to their super stretchy, moisture-wicking, and breathable fabric. Sweaty girls, we are so up! Oh, and let's not forget: every single one of these styles comes with built-in shorts and pockets. Enough said. Time's ticking, besties! You've only got until Friday, July 11, to snag these while they're majorly discounted and still in stock. If you want my advice, grab your favorite in every color. Just saying!

18 Mixed Metal Jewelry Pieces You Can Wear With Anything
Wearing silver and gold jewelry at the same time was once considered a fashion faux pas. But according to the runway and street style alike, the tides have turned: Mixed metal jewelry is one of the biggest accessory trends of the year. Two-tone jewelry is a genius concept, in my humble opinion. The inclusion of multiple metals lets you mix and match with both silver and gold pieces in your existing collection. And while mixed metals aren't exactly a new concept—take a peek inside your grandma's jewelry box for proof—its modern renaissance is a great excuse to layer necklaces, pretty rings, and chunky bangles. Ready to try out the trend? Many of our editors' favorite jewelry brands are one step ahead of you. Shop everything from watchband rings woven with gold and silver accents to vintage-inspired button earrings sporting multiple metals from Jenny Bird, Baublebar, Mejuri, and more below. The secret to a curated earscape? Personality. While a mixed metal earring stack could be as simple as alternating between gold and silver hoops, you can also play around with chunky vintage-inspired button earrings or subtle charms. I'm partial to these dome earrings from Bibi + Kim, but you can't go wrong with the best-selling Baby Knot earrings from Heaven Mayhem or this under-$40 pick from Anthropologie. Rings are one of my favorite ways to play around with personal style, and mixed metal rings even more so. Textured watchband rings (a la this option from NÜR San Francisco) add utilitarian style to your ring stack, while molten-looking gold and silver rings like this pair from Mejuri are the definition of classy. A curated necklace stack is the best way to elevate an outfit—and a mixed metal moment makes that easier to achieve, since you don't have to choose between silver or gold. Some of our favorite takes on the trend include chunky chain necklaces with interlocking metals, like this option from Machete. If you prefer a simpler stack, try a dainty herringbone chain or a simple pendant. From charm bracelets to cuffs, there are plenty of ways to decorate yourself in two-tone jewelry. If you're a fan of the chunky bracelet trend like me, try a chain from Artizan Joyeria (and pop on a few charms for personalization). Or keep your stack sleek and simple with this slender bangle from Missoma.
