After a long, hard winter, there’s nothing quite like that first day that you can wear shorts and let your legs free again (and no, we don’t support any “I don’t like showing my legs” nonsense around here—wear the shorts!). It signifies that a new season really is here, and it’s always a bit of a relief to let jeans be put on the back-burner for a bit. And after trying dozens of denim and linen shorts for summer, our team has proven to love Abercrombie’s above all others.  Shorts have come a long way from the butt cheek-revealing days...

Over the years, there have been numerous fashion fails that have left people cringing. Happy pants, mud jean vests, and shoulder pads are some of the worst fashion trends that were once popular. These days crocs with socks and tight jeans have become fashion no-nos. But of all these fashion fails, there are some that should never be repeated.

As a plus size fashion blogger who has been advocating for more size-inclusive options for the last decade, I love being able to finally try brands I’ve always wanted thanks to Target’s extended sizing. And as a triple water sign (Cancer sun, moon, and rising!), this latest collection — designed in collaboration with Agua Bendita, Fe Noel, and RHODE — holds...

Going through old pictures usually brings back all sorts of memories. That means both the beautiful times you feel sentimental about and the top-tier cringe-worthy moments. And even though the latter might make you want to disappear into thin air (or close the photo album, at least), looking back at your young self can often be very amusing as well. Some of the finest examples that can make you laugh and cry simultaneously can be found on the ‘Blunder Years’ subreddit. Dedicated to, in their exact words, “pictures from a regrettable past”, it covers all sorts of disasters, from questionable...
