Chanel × Monster = #Wishlist Headphones

Have you noticed fashion designers busy making tech-related buzz as of late? Diana von Furstenberg was ahead of the game by showing off Google Glass on the catwalk with her spring/summer collection back in 2012. This season, Rebecca Minkoff is sending Bluetooth-connected accessories down the New York runway. And, Chanel? Well, they just partner with Monster to bring you the most badass fashion headphones this world has ever seen.

During Paris Fashion Week back in February, the Internet was abuzz when Chanel’s maestro Karl Lagerfeld and Alicia Keys‘ producer and DJ hubby Swizz Beatz both flaunted a pair of Chanel-quilted headphones. An Instagram photo of the two had the fashion-obsessed asking when they could get their hands on them.

Here we are, six months later, and word on the street is that they should drop on the market at any second now. The exact release date is still unknown, but we do know it will be mid-September — so soon.

The collab between Chanel and Monster was introduced to Paris audiences by Chinese supermodel Ming Xi during Chanel’s runway show. Models walked down the runway in brightly colored leggings, tweed jackets and geometric-patterned scarves to offset the new piece of black gadgetry. And since wires would never fit Chanel’s vibe, these babies are Bluetooth enabled. That iconic quilting is hitting the right spots with both Chanel diehards and tech-savvy millennials.

We bet you’re curious about that price tag. Nothing has been officially released, but one Japanese fashion website got a tip that they’ll retail for 840,000 Yen, which is approximately $7,986. Yowza. Does that make them an unrealistic thing to put on your Christmas list? Probably, most definitely, yes.

What do you think of the Chanel x Monster collaboration? Tell us in the comment below.

Thanks to Sean Kaufman and Rain Spencer (as well as all the pros behind the camera), the best TV scene of 2023 came out when The Summer I Turned Prettygave us Steven and Taylor (played by Sean and Rain, respectively) dancing to Frank Ocean's cover of "Moon River." I absolutely lost my mind! This series is one of the best teen dramas around, and good news for fans of all things Cousins Beach: we're getting The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3! The new installment is coming in 2025 and stars Gavin Casalegno, Chris Briney, and Lola Tung as Jeremiah, Conrad, and Belly.

Here's everything we know about the new TV show — including a look at our convo with lead actress Lola Tung!

What did Gavin Casalegno say about The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

Gavin Casalegno (Jeremiah) and Lola Tung (Belly)

That's a very valid question, and it's one a lot of internet users are asking after Gavin, Lola, and Chris appeared at the Teen Vogue Summit on November 23, 2024. When asked about his favorite moments between Belly and Jeremiah, Gavin highlighted the “magical, fun” moments he loves to share with Lola.

“The story is very dramatized and something that's so beautiful is getting to be in the car with each other and be able to sing songs together and enjoy each other's presence,” he says. “That's something I personally enjoy. There's something sweet about those moments that build the relationship and the kind of foundation for those relationships.”

While the sentiment is very sweet, the internet is already consumed by Chris and Lola's reactions, which range from confused to surprised. "Why they looking at him like that 😭," one user commented while another says, "Their facial expressions are killing me." A third even took it a step further by joking, "Me when i’m tryna reach my word count." Listen, avoiding spoilers is a tough game!

The Summer I Turned Pretty Takes Chapel Hill

Christopher Briney (Conrad)

The week of July 8, The Summer I Turned Pretty filmed on UNC-Chapel Hill's campus (which is where both Jenny Han and I went to school!) and fans were more than excited to see Christopher Briney around campus.

"They could never make me hate you Connie baby," one TikTok user commented on photos of Chris on Franklin Street, while another agrees, "If Conrad has no fans I'm dead."

Based on his new costume, and his hair being blonder than before, Conrad is looking a little older, wiser, and more mature — and as a Belly x Conrad shipper, I think it'll just make him look even better standing beside Lola Tung ;).

Another leak from set featuring Lola Tung in a yellow sundress and Christopher Briney in a polo shirt and slacks has fans in a tizzy! "The summer I turned pretty season 3 Belly and Conrad 😍," says the video's caption (and heart eyes are exactly how I feel about Conrad Fisher). One comment calls Belly and Conrad "soul mates" and I totally agree!

When will The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 come out?

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 release date is coming in summer 2025. We were hoping to see The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 return in 2024, but thanks to a new post from the official TSITP account, we know the show will drop summer 2025. Okay, TBH that's a total bummer (just because we can't wait to watch!!), but, as the books say, It's Not Summer Without You (er, Belly and her friends).

Lola Tung starred as Euridyce in Hadestown on Broadway until March 17, 2024. During our interviews during the official press day — which you can watch on TikTok — she told me how excited she was to return to Belly's arc this season, and that she was just as excited to return to Cousins Beach as we are! "I'm just very excited to be back with everyone and to be able to step back into Belly's shoes, I'm super excited," she says.

Who's going to be in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 cast?

Considering the third book, We'll Always Have Summer, revolves around Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah, The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 castwill include Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno. We're also hoping to see Sean Kaufman, Rain Spencer, Jackie Chung, and Rachel Blanchard again!

After a variety of cast members were spotted around Wilmington, North Carolina, fans were hoping to see Christopher Briney — and it looks like he has finally arrived! "CONRAD FISHERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR IS HOMEEEEEEEEEEE," one X user says along with an image of Christopher Briney.

Your First Look At The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3

Prime Video

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 first look

I GASPED when I saw this first look at all the characters in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3. Prime Video did live Summer Watch Parties with the cast (and some exclusive commentary on their favorite episodes), and the sign up page featured Belly, Conrad, and the rest of the gang!

We see Lola Tung, Rain Spencer, Christopher Briney, Gavin Casalegno, and Sean Kaufman hanging out at the Cousins Beach house, and right off the bat things are looking brand new. Both Stephen and Taylor have grown out their hair, while Conrad's looking a little more blond than last season. But, thankfully, the characters still have their bohemian, Americana style which I'd consider a hallmark of the series! I can't wait to see them back in action.

Where can I watch The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Streaming

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 will be available to stream on Prime Video, which is where you can watch season 1 and 2 right now!

Who does Conrad end up with in The Summer I Turned Pretty series?

Prime Video

Lola Tung (Belly) and Christopher Briney (Conrad)

While we don't know who Conrad will end up with in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3, there is one theory that suggests his reunion with Belly will be better than ever. Lola Tung, Rain Spencer, Gavin Casalegno, and other cast members have been spotted around Wilmington — all except Chris Briney.@julevere wonders if they're filming in chronological order for one specific reason.

"You don't see Conrad for ages in book 3," she says. "What if Jenny [Han] is doing that on purpose so the actual moment in the show where Conrad and Belly see each other for the first time, [in a way] that's going to be the first legitimate time those two actors as...Belly and Conrad will see each other."

Waiting as long as possible for Lola Tung and Chris Briney to see each other means that Belly and Conrad's reunion will be more intense, and bring up all the old emotions (and infinity necklaces) that came up during season 2. If there's one thing this show has taught me, it's that you can only run from your feelings for so long and as a member of #TeamConrad, I'm hoping any reunion between the two brings them together for potential future seasons.

How old are the characters?

Lola Tung (Belly) and Christopher Briney (Conrad)

In season one, Conrad is going to be a freshman in college, while the rest of the characters are still in high school. And at the beginning of season 2, Steven graduates from high school!

How many episodes are in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

Erika Doss/Prime Video

Lola Tung (Belly), Christopher Briney (Conrad), and Rain Spencer (Taylor)

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 will have 10 episodes instead of eight like the previous two seasons!

Where is The Summer I Turned Pretty filmed?

Amazon Studios/Prime Video

Even though The Summer I Turned Pretty is set on the coast of Massachusetts, the show is filming in Wilmington, North Carolina. This city is actually pretty well known in Hollywood — projects like Iron Man 3,One Tree Hill, and Outer Banks have filmed there! As someone who grew up going to Wilmington every single summer, I can promise you it's just as pretty as it looks (and the fair from season 2 is just as fun!!)

Is there a 4th Summer I Turned Pretty?

There is not a fourth The Summer I Turned Pretty book, but that doesn't mean the show has to end with season 3. They've already changed a few details from the books — namely, adding the Stephen/Taylor relationship reminds me of how Gossip Girl gave us Chuck and Blair, a fan-favorite ship that wasn't in those books either! I'm excited to see how the story (and the characters) continue to grow and evolve!

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Announcement

Lola Tung (Belly) and Rain Spencer (Taylor)

Prime Video announced the renewal on August 3, right before episode five of the second season hit the streaming service. Just like the season two trailer, Taylor Swift's "august" plays in the background and I'm in tears.

“We’ve been delighted to see the passion with which fans have embraced The Summer I Turned Pretty,” Amazon and MGM Studios' head of television Vernon Sanders says in a press release. “Jenny Han is a gifted storyteller, whose fans have been clamoring for the third chapter of this story. We’re excited today to share the news that they have a lot more Summer to look forward to."
