EDITOR’S NOTE Happy Sunday. After traveling for three consecutive weekends, I can’t tell you how happy I am to be home — and back in my routine. That involves a decent amount (read: a lot) of scrolling. Some of my best finds? Can’t get behind the Flip-Flop Renaissance? These are the surprisingly chic sandals women in their 30s and 40s are wearing instead. Just ask Jennifer Lawrence…and me. As soon as I decided I was too old to use a pocket lighter for my candles, I came across this two-minute DIY that turns whatever’s in your cabinet into an expensive-looking match striker. Bud vase, I’m coming for you. Millennials, this frat party staple is having a shockingly fancy revival — and I’m genuinely not sure whether to be delighted or disturbed. If your summer wardrobe is 99% linen (same), this childhood-coded fabric is your next obsession. It’s understated, versatile, and already all over Cool Girl closets. Thanks to my recent hotel stays, I rediscovered my love of Special K Red Berries Cereal — and there’s no better use for it than this Strawberries & Cream Crunch recipe. Essentially, a sweet, salty, summery snack mix that hasn’t lasted more than a day in my apartment.
