Clothes

Despite little ones popping up all over your feed, your family, and maybe your own household (!), the best baby clothes can be quite difficult to nail down. Especially if it's your first go at parenthood or if you're looking to impress loved ones with a thoughtful baby gift or something special for a one-year-old. Sure, people will say, "They outgrow everything so fast—don't buy too much!" They're not wrong, but trust that babies (and their sweet little digestive tracts) will demand them in multiples. We also can't deny that in the age of everyone being a documentarian, parents always have cameras at the ready (looking at you, G-mas and G-pas of the world). So, if you're the style-loving kind by nature, it's impossible to resist adding some high-end options to cart. Think: a Hunza G swimsuit to match your own, logo-clad summer sandals… or a velour Juicy Couture tracksuit? Before we get into the best baby clothes and what brands to buy them from, a...

"It's fresh, but I've been able to work though it," he said, with the help of "a lot of therapy." By Kase Wickman July 14, 2023 From Charles Sykes/Bravo via Getty Images. Save this story Save Save this story Save Therapy is a wonderful, powerful tool. Without it, Joe Jonas may not have ever found the strength to wear white pants again. It's often about processing and digesting the past, then letting it go. Jonas knows. In an interview published Friday on the Will & Woody podcast, the Jonas Brothers band member shared something of a trauma dump when prompted to share a story from his life that he'd never told in the press. Without hesitation, the 33-year-old father of two, pulled a tale from the bowels of his memory. "There's a point in your life where, as an adult, you can remember the last time you shit your pants," he said. Then he revealed that "about four years ago," he suffered a bit of a wardrobe malfunction wh...

• Value: Does a store offer well-priced merchandise? Or if it's on the higher-end, are there end-of-season and other special sales we can take advantage of? • Design: Sure, we may love the clothes but if our child won't deign to put it on, it's a waste. So we're searching for that sweet spot of presentable yet appealing to the littles. • Size and gender range: We appreciate a wide range of not only ages but also size permutations, such as slim and husky pants cuts, as well as gender-neutral options. • Shipping and return ease: No matter how sure we and our children are that we'll adore something we see online, we need the option to return it if we don't love it in person (or if we've had a growth spurt by the time it's shipped). So flexible shipping, exchanges and returns are a must.

Dear Prudence is Slate's advice column. Submit questions here. (It's anonymous!) Dear Prudence, At the last two gatherings we hosted in our home, multiple guests wore dark-wash blue jeans (we're all middle-aged and leave the trendy, baggy, light-washed denim for the kids). On two separate occasions, our guests unintentionally stained our large, expensive, light-colored couch. They also stained the walls by rubbing their knees against the breakfast bar while seated on bar stools. Of course, we did not mention any of this to our guests, repainted the wall ourselves, and paid $200 to have the couch professionally cleaned. The wall was easy enough to repaint. However, the upholstery cleaner would not book the job initially because it was so unlikely he'd be able to get the stains out of the fabric. We were extremely lucky when he saved our couch, though it's still a touch darker in some spots. Now we'd like to host again. What is the best way to avoid t...

The bikini top is UPF 50, fade-resistant, chlorine-safe, and sunscreen- and oil-resistant. They recommend hand-washing the garment. Wild Isles is a woman-owned small business based in Minneapolis that creates swimsuits constructed with sustainably, ethically made materials. Promising review: "My chest is very heavy, and I normally wear a 38 DD. I just reached my mid-40s, and after being a mom and through weight gain and weight loss over the decades, I really needed a bikini top that would give me good support and stay put and give my chest a little oomph. This bikini top is gorgeous! It fits perfectly, and will fit even if I gain or lose weight. It's sexy but not super revealing. The fabric is so soft! I am very self-conscious in a bikini, but this top pushes me to get over that, because it's so beautiful and comfortable." —Melody C Get the bikini top from Wild Isles for $95 (available in sizes 1–4+, which accommodates cup sizes D–H, and 10 colors...

Newman says that the best way to encapsulate the bridal jacket trend is to go with a jacket that contrasts with the material of your dress. "I love the contrast of leather and lace together," she suggests. And even if you want less of a contrast and something more casual for photos, leather is still one of her favorite picks. "Leather and chiffon paired together also give off more of a casual look," she says. "I think the [bridal jacket] trend is fun, and you can definitely make it your own. I also like the idea of draping any of the options over your shoulders and carrying a great clutch to style it," she adds. Bottom line: Have fun with it—maybe you decide on an oversized white jean jacket but personalize it with some bedazzling and your new last name across the back.

Victoria's Secret & Co. is launching a collection with Chinese designer Rui Zhou's gender-fluid fashion label Rui-Built, a first for the lingerie and beauty company in the China market. On Monday, the brand teased the collection with a short video that documented the creative process and the campaign shoot that features He Sui, a Victoria's Secret Angel, and two other Chinese models. Aiming to embrace "the wearer's natural body shape" and "inspire them to feel confident," the collection combined Zhou's signature cutout motif with Victoria's Secret's most recognizable designs, such as the slipdress, the marshmallow padding bra and the label's lace detailing.

OK, admittedly, you may not think of Amazon when you think about upgrading your wardrobe. You probably think of inexpensive dupes, cotton basics and athleticwear. After all, those are Amazon's best sellers in the fashion category. However, you can find really great, fashionable pieces that will last you a long time — if you know where to look. I recently scrolled through Amazon's The Drop and found so many cute things! The Drop is essentially limited-edition collections designed by fashion influencers. I ordered five dresses using Prime's "Try Before You Buy" feature, where you can order a dress for $0 down. Then, after you receive it, you have seven days to try it on and decide if you want to purchase it or return it. (FYI, if you don't return it after seven days, Amazon charges your account.) The Drop Of all of the dresses I ordered, I'm most in love with this High-Neck Cut-In A-Line Side Slit Maxi Sweater Dress. I'm already adding more colors to my ...

If there's one thing that still has bipartisan support in politics, it's embarrassing menswear. In a move that made less-than-fashionable headlines, Democratic Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell all recently wore "dress sneakers" — a term I needn't bother dismissing as an oxymoron — to the White House. It's just one of many unstylish trends that have ruined men's outfits in the nation's capital and other political centers. Male politicians are wearing ill-fitting suits, orphaned suit jackets paired with light-washed jeans, trousers that puddle around their ankles and sweaters crammed into too-small jackets. These faux pas mostly go unnoticed during non-election years. But for presidential candidates on the campaign trail, these kinds of clothing missteps can cause unnecessary headlines and take attention away from their message. These days, it'...
