Dua Lipa proves less is more with her latest summer ensemble. On Aug. 27, the singer looked ready to hit the runway in a pair of designer micro shorts made for summer vacation. The $3,600 Miu Miu shorts featured a cheeky, high-cut silhouette and a matching suede belt fitted with a gold-tone buckle. Reminiscent of the hot pants trend of the 1970s (and later the ’90s), Lipa’s look was the ultimate nod to retro summer style. “Sun bum,” she captioned photos of her outfit on Instagram.
A fanatically rated (we’re talking 4.8 stars, people) duffle that has many a gearhead satisfied. “I love this bag,” says Amazon reviewer CW. “It’s a beautiful color, nice material, holds a ton of stuff — 40 oz. water bottle, speed rope, knee sleeves, supplements, wraps, gloves, lifting belt, etc — with plenty of room without being too bulky. I love the wet bag and the shoe compartment, too.”
I’ve got so many bones to pick with adulthood, but I’ll start with this one: Why does back-to-school shopping end once we graduate? Maybe it’s just an excuse to splurge, but I swear it eases the pain of summer’s inevitable end, and today, I’m bringing it back. My back-to-school shopping list (adult edition) does not include anything that can be found at Staples. Instead, I’ve rounded up the new-to-market fashion and beauty items that will set anyone up for success as we enter fall. The apparel items below are the perfect transitional pieces (e.g. the J.Crew cashmere vest and cargo trousers) while the beauty items will keep us glowing and hydrated as the weather starts to cool. Now, this may not be the most traditional back-to-school list you’ve ever seen, but if you’re looking for an excuse to shop this week, I certainly found you one.
