You know when you find a brand that just gets it? It’s reliable, quality, trendy, but not too trendy? The brand that may not be top of mind all the time, but when it does bubble up you’re like, “Oh, of course I should look for [insert whatever you’re looking for] there” because you know they’ll make a better version than anyone else?

Capricorn, this week is a lesson on trusting the process, even when you’re faced with life’s plot twists or unpredictabilities. With Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, no longer in an earth sign, you may be caught off guard by people suddenly switching up their behaviors and acting quite differently than you’re used to. You may not be able to control these changes, but you are in control of your reaction, so the more you can be malleable to the shifting situations, the less triggered you’ll feel by them. Having the sun, Venus, and Jupiter all in Gemini is encouraging you to maintain an optimistic outlook on your health, your routines, and the way you show up to serve the world through the work that you do.

This summer, Free People is proving majorly helpful for adding some fresh pieces into said capsule with its perfect summer staples. The brand’s latest drop is where comfort meets a bohemian aesthetic, making it a breeze to pack for any holiday, be it a special trip abroad or a hot-weather staycation.
The mary jane shoe trend is continuing its popularity streak. Once-upon-a-time, the classic shoes were reserved for our school days and, well, the wardrobes of chic French women. But that all changes a few seasons ago when suddenly, they started cropping up on the feeds of very stylish dressers, both across the English Channel and at home. Now, in 2024, the mary jane has cemented itself as one of the most in-demand shoe styles on the market.
