Blake Lively Joins the New Perm-Lovin’ Celeb Trend

Gigi Hadid just took the big step, and so did Jenna Dewan Tatum. Before them, it was Karlie Kloss that braved the change, and now Blake Lively, soon-to-be mama-of-two, has jumped on the latest celebrity style trend. While Blake usually switches between super straight hair and minimal waves in a classic Hollywood-type style, this time around it’s ALL about the curls.

Posting a perfectly posed pic of herself to Instagram (and then a second slightly #fail-ish pic), Blake can be seen in a… black? …navy blue? dress that ends above mid-thigh, with its long sleeves woven at the shoulders and giant buttons adorning both the pockets and cuffs. Fierce heels and gold hoop earrings finish off the look — well, other than that glorious mane of blonde hair.

With her long locks having a slightly crimped look, it falls into loose spirals as opposed to tight kinks. Still working the media circuit for her new movie, The Shallows, the star was also seen around town showing off the same look in all its curly glory.

With no deets on if this is a full-on perm or hella-curler action, it’s totally on-trend and definitely fabulous.

Are you a curly hair-lover? Do you think Blake pulls it off, or should she stick to straight? Tweet us @BritandCo!

Blake Lively was just spotted living her best life vacationing in Capri, Italy donning the cutest one-piece swimsuit – in perhaps one of the most unexpected colors for the season!

Miss Blake took a break from filming A Simple Favor 2 to board a boat (jealous!) wearing a bold coral swimmie from Gooseberry Intimates – and I was immediately convinced 2024 is finally the year of one-piece swimsuits. Ugh, her power!

Unlike most celebrity style we're seeing these days, Blake's swimsuit is super easy to track down and is fairly accessible price-wise. Below, find all the details you need to know about Blake's one-and-done vacay look before you snag the ultimate swim staple for yourself.

Shop Blake Lively's One-Piece Swimsuit

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece in Coral

This $99 swimsuit from Gooseberry Intimates is downright flirty. Just look at that plunging neckline! The v-neck effect is overwhelmingly sultry and sexy, so there'll be no doubt that you'll feel confident AF every beach or pool day you wear it. No wonder celebs like Blake Lively, Sydney Sweeney, Kendall Jenner, and Vanessa Hudgens love it!

The bottom half of the suit boasts a cheeky cut with a playful high leg that adds a flattering elongating effect on your legs. Since it's specifically crafted to sculpt your figure, there are no annoying cups or inserts to mess with, plus the material is double-lined for additional peace of mind!

The suit comes in sizes XS-XL and is fitted with thin adjustable spaghetti straps so you can find your perfect fit. The solid color opens doors for endless styling possibilities, whether you wear it with a swimsuit cover-up to prep for the pool or with a flowy maxi skirt on dry land. You can also shop it in 14 other hues, from key lime green to royal blue.

With solid TLC, this Gooseberry Intimates swimsuit can last you years and years (and years). Now that's what I call a good investment. According to the brand, "each garment is hand dyed, cut and sewed to order," so you can get excited knowing this one-piece was made just for you.

More Must-Have Summer Suits From Gooseberry Intimates

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece Cutout Black

This luxe-looking black one-piece swimsuit is also made from figure-sculpting materials that hug you in in all the right places. Compared to Blake Lively's coral swimsuit, this one has a bit more coverage up top and on the bottom. The double-lined fabric swarms the entire suit with comfort and coverage, including the bust and the medium-coverage brief areas.

The exposed back and keyhole cutout in the front are sure to turn all heads toward you. The scoopneck suit flexes some sleek gold hardware: a ring in the front, and an adorable little tag on the back for added elegance.

This chic cutout piece comes in 6 other colors, so you're bound to land on one that fits your vibe the most. It's shoppable in sizes XS-XL for $99!

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece Tank Baby Pink

This one-piece is probably my favorite of them all. Sure, the square neckline feels less revealing up top, but the style is still super sexy with high legs and a cheeky brief cut. Plus, I just can't resist baby pink!

This pick is crafted with Gooseberry Intimates' signature double-lined fabric for added modesty (love it!), and it comes in especially handy for wearing lighter colors like this subtle pink.

The thin, adjustable straps don't feel intrusive, which is great for when you're strolling along the sand or dipping your toes in the pool. It comes in sizes XS-XL and 5 other eye-catching colors for $99.

Gooseberry Intimates Sculpting Top Rum + Bikini Bottom

This bikini top feels like it's inspired by vintage lingerie, and I'm ​very ​here for it! The seaming on the underwired bust is reminiscent of your classic balconette bra, except this suit flaunts a tad more coverage. You're easily able to find your perfect swimsuit fit with the help of adjustable straps and a back clasp closure. 

The double-lined bottoms, on the other hand, aren't adjustable, but stretch accordingly to your shape. They are perfectly mid-rise and cheeky, with a flirty high-cut leg in tow. While I adore this rusty red color, this set also comes in black, white, royal blue, and baby pink. 

This bikini is currently shoppable in sizes XS-L. The top is $55 and the bottoms are $45. ​

Studio McGee has spent the last decade inspiring us with a blend of accessible and elevated designs, creating beautiful and totally livable spaces. In her 2025 Home Decor Trends report, Shea McGee emphasizes that home decor trends evolve gradually over time, and I couldn’t agree more. Unlike the fast-paced world of fashion, where trends shift every season, these design moves develop organically over time, and that's good for your wallet and taking your time to create a space you love. Get inspired to refresh your home in 2025 with a few new accents, from embellishments like fringe to maybe a little western or seaside art.

Here are Studio McGee's 2025 Home Decor Trend Predictions, with a few surprises!

Romantic Silhouettes

Take Romantic Silhouettes, for example. This is a trend we've seen steadily gain traction over the past few years. Think curvy furniture, delicate floral prints, and soft blush hues — when curated thoughtfully, these elements can become timeless staples in your home.

Western Cowboy

This is a design trend that totally surprised me, but I'm so happy to see it in the mix. Elements like leather furniture, rustic accessories, equestrian art, even wood walls, shown in this office designed by A1000XBetter, are making an impact in 2025 and beyond. But Shea notes that you can take this trend literally or just be inspired by the look. You can also mix it with other styles to personalize it for you. Add romantic pillows or ruffled tablecloths like McGee & Co. x Loeffler Randall Gardenia Ruffle Border Tablecloth – things you love that make it yours vs. based solely on one trend.

Saturated Colors

Shea predicts that rich hues like deep browns, oxblood red, and earthy greens will continue to dominate home decor colors going into 2025. House of Rolison's bathroom brown is an excellent example of this beautiful trend.

Pattern Drenching

Embracing a single pattern and drenching an entire room in it — from walls to pillows, headboards, and curtains — is a surprise trend for 2025. This maximalist approach, which has been quietly gaining traction, draws inspiration from Arts and Crafts designers like William Morris and has been in and out of vogue since the Victorian era.

McGee & Co.

Embellishments

This is a trend you can easily DIY to add an extra layer of charm to your decor. Think playful details like fringe accents —beautifully shown in McGee & Co.'s Philippa Settee — along with tassels, pleats, ruffles, and rope. It’s all about embracing texture and whimsy, so have fun with it!

McGee & Co.

Seaside Inspiration

Coastal decor has long been an influence in design and you can be inspired by it in many forms, from shell accents to beach-inspired artwork like McGee & Co.'s Distant Coastline art to textured seagrass baskets and jute rugs. Even the soothing hues of the sea — think soft blues, sandy neutrals, and gentle greens — can inspire your 2025 spaces.

Copyingcelebrity stylecan feel really out of reach. A lot of times, what the Taylor Swifts and Hailey Biebers of the world are wearing is cute, but simply out of the budget, and we have to go hunting for dupes! But not with Free People! Many of our fave “It” girls share the same love we have for the Free Peoplebrand, and have been spotted donning their pieces everywhere from grocery trips to the ‘gram.

We’ve got the inside scoop on what exactly our fave celebs are wearing from Free People. Scroll to steal their looks for the low!

Love Letter Cami

As seen on Taylor Swift

We're constantly taking notes on Taylor Swift's style, and our list begins with this adorable tank top that Tay was spotted wearing in a pic alongside Geraldine Viswanathan! This super-stretchy top also comes in a darker gray, blue, white, black, and brown and sizes XS-XL for $38.

We The Free Jayde Flare Jumpsuit

As seen on Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson looked so amazing in this Free People denim jumpsuit she wore on her show in January 2024! This one-piece is made from a stretchy material that fits like a glove, but still moves with you comfortably. The snatched waistline and flared legs flatter your figure even more! This versatile (and verycowgirl-core) Free People pick is also available in black, white, brown, red, and a few other denim washes in sizes XS-XL for $158.

Good Karma Onesie

As seen on Hilary Duff

We admire Hilary Duff's street style because it's super relaxed, but still has a touch of her personality. This bold onesie from Free People's Movement line that Hilary was spotted wearing is the perfect foundation for a casual atheleisure 'fit. It's made from a thicker ribbed material that hugs your bod in all the right places, even if you're breaking a sweat at the gym. It's equally appropriate for weekend festivities, like hitting the farmer's market or grabbing brunch with the gals.

The Good Karma Onesie is shoppable in 10 other colors and sizes XS-XL for $98.

Three Day Weekend Tank

As seen on Hailey Bieber

In true clean girl fashion, Hailey Bieber likes to keep things simple. Case in point is this lightweight Free People tank she was seen wearing to promote her eyewear collection with Vogue Eyewear in 2023! Though it's no longer available in the spicy red color she sported, the Three Day Weekend Tank is still a great staple piece to add to your wardrobe. It can be layered among other pieces you already have, or worn on its own for hotter days. It's now available in pink, gray, or black in sizes XS-XL for $20!

Karina Sweater Set

As seen on Selena Gomez

We're happy to report that Selena Gomez is a fellow comfy gal like us (we've been eyeing the We The Free Old West Slouchy Jeans ever since she wore them)! She was seen sporting the Karina Sweater Set while posing with a fan, and this pick is definitely something we could live in year-round. This matching set pairs an oversized long-sleeve top with high-waisted, wide-leg bottoms for a seamless duo that can be easily worn separate, too. You can snag it in 4 other colors in sizes XS-XL for $108 right now.

Sailor Mini Dress

As seen on Ashley Benson

Actress Ashley Benson was rockin' this mini dress earlier this year, and it's been living rent-free in our minds since it's so adorable! The Sailor Mini Dress flaunts a babydoll-inspired fit with striped stitching details and a darling open back that ties with a bow. Ashley styled it with some black loafers and black sunnies to brave some warm weather, but this can also be styled easily with sandals or boots, too. This pick comes in this black color or a light yellow shade in sizes XS-XL and costs just $70.

Onda Drop-Waist Tube Midi Dress

As seen on Brie Larson

Brie Larson's Instagram account is everything to us. She flaunted this Free People dress on her feed in the cutest way possible, posing outside with some strappy striped ballet flats on her feet. Talk about total outfit inspo! The drop-waist and flowy midi skirt on this strapless Free People tube dress give it a wonderful, whimsical feel for summertime. The Onda Drop-Waist Tube Midi Dress comes in 4 other fun colors and sizes XS-XL for $78.

Hit The Slopes Printed Pullover

As seen on Lucy Hale

Actress Lucy Hale has been spotted in Free People numerous times, and often, what she's wearing is uber-comfy. This pullover is no exception, and it looks like the ultimate piece for a lazy day! The Hit The Slopes Printed Pullover is fully fleeced, with a quarter buttoned neckline and a convenient side pocket that zips up. We are obsessing over this unqiye tie-dye colorway (the shade Lucy originally wore – a cool blue-green – is sold out), but it also comes in a few different floral and color blocked designs. Shop it in sizes XS-XL for $168.

We The Free Ryder Sport Vegan Moto Jacket

As seen on Whitney Port

Whitney Port's ensemble of a basic tee + classic jeans + Adidas sneakers is screaming cool girl! She topped off her 'fit with this vegan leather moto jacket from Free People to add a layer of sportiness, and it's so cute. The jacket is made for a slouchy fit and features color-blocked details for eye-catching effect!

We The Free Good Luck Mid-Rise Barrel Jeans

As seen on Sienna Miller

Actress Sienna Miller was spotted out for a stroll earlier this year with her family, wearing these Free People barrel jeans. Though divisive, barrel jeans are the comfiest jeans of all with wide, breezy legs and a loose-fitting waistline. These mid-rise bottoms are shoppable in 13 different colors and sizes 24-33. Snag a pair for $98!

Easy Street Tunic

As seen on Jessica Alba

For a celeb-inspired piece that you can wear literally every day (it's so cozy, you won't want to take it off), take notes from none other than Jessica Alba! She was seen out and about while donning this tunic top in black, but it also comes in white, cream, blue, green, and marigold. The fabric is lightly ribbed for a soft touch on the skin. This wear-everywhere top comes in sizes XS-XL for $128!

Dunkin’s winter menu for 2025 is lookin’ pretty sweet. Seriously – 3 out of 5 new drinks on the menu are inspired by cake. Since there’s little I love more than a good, decadent dessert (other than coffee, of course), I’m especially excited about this new lineup!

The Dunkin’ winter menu also has one sweet snack and an iced espresso drink that are both hauntingly similar to what Starbucks has to offer. Is the competition heating up, or is it just me?

The Dunkin’ winter menu dropped on December 31, just ahead of the new year. Dunkin's holiday menu dropped on November 1.

Let’s officially get into it. Here’s everything on the Dunkin’ menu this December to start 2025 off just right!

Drinks On The Dunkin' Winter Menu

@snackolator

NEW! Lava Cake Signature Latte

Lava Cake Swirl flavoring, whipped cream, mocha drizzle, and hot chocolate powder. Now that's a mouthful! That's exactly how this new drink is built – with tons and tons of chocolate. If you've got a strong sweet tooth, this one's for you.

@snackolator

NEW! Lava Cake Coffee

Dunkin' is also featuring the new Lava Cake Swirl flavoring in this creamy coffee. It'll be available to order hot or iced!

@snackolator

Brown Sugar Shakin' Espresso

Um, Starbucks dupe, anyone?! Dunkin's version of the famed Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso looks like it follows a very similar recipe to the Starbies way: espresso (shaken until frothy), brown sugar syrup, and oat milk. I can't wait to try this one and see how it measures up to my routine Starbucks order. It even got a co-sign from Sabrina Carpenter.

Dunkin'

Brown Sugar Oat Iced Matcha Latte

Dunkin' will offer two new in-app exclusive drinks this season, the first being the Brown Sugar Oat Iced Matcha Latte. It's like your average iced matcha latte, amped up with some brown sugar syrup and oat milk. Yum.

@snackolator

Raspberry Lava Cake Coffee

The second in-app exclusive drink on theDunkin' winter menu is the Raspberry Lava Cake Coffee, which features a dose of Lava Cake Swirl alongside a raspberry flavor shot and cream. You'll be able to order this one hot or iced.

Food On The Dunkin' Winter Menu

@snackolator

NEW! Whoopie Pie Specialty Donut

Now, onto the good stuff. The Whoopie Pie Specialty Donut features a halved glazed chocolate cake donut that's filled with vanilla whipped buttercreme icing and topped with a cute lil' buttercreme rosette.

Dunkin'

Iced Lemon Loaf Cake

Okay, yet another Starbucks similarity! This zesty-sweet snack returns on December 31. Dunkin's Iced Lemon Loaf Cake is moist as can be, and is topped with a thick layer of lemon icing.

More Dunkin' Menu Items To Come In 2025

Dunkin'

Dunkin' Valentine's Donuts

Speculation around the Dunkin' winter menu for 2025 also dropped some hints about the chain's Valentine's Day offerings.

According to the buzz, the Brownie Batter (pictured above) and Cupid's Choice donuts will return on January 29. What's even more exciting is that a new iteration of Dunkin's Munchkins will be available, too!

The new Valentine's Munchkins will reportedly be made from glazed chocolate donut holes coated in Valentine's-esque sprinkles. I'm craving them already!
