Chipotle Is Getting into the Burger Biz

Ya know how much we love our fast food, whether we should or not, even if it comes dispensed via LEGO (for real). That’s why we’re totally into Chipotle’s current efforts to woo us food-wise, and why we’re absolutely excited by the news that the taco-peddlers are now getting into the burger biz. Whaa? Yup, and yum!

According to Bloomberg, our burrito-slinging buds at Chipotle have filed a trademark application for the name Better Burger. Mmm!

“It’s a growth seed idea we are exploring,” said Chris Arnold, a Chipotle spokesman. “We have two non-Chipotle growth seeds open now — ShopHouse and Pizzeria Locale — and have noted before that the Chipotle model could be applied to a wide variety of foods.” So should we expect to see Chipotle souvlaki and Chipotle roti in the future? We can only… hope? *shrugs*

No news on when or where Better Burgers is set to open, but we’ll be on top of that like a crew of ladies descending upon Chipotle burritos after a night of partying.

Is your stomach growling over the idea of Chipotle burgers? Tweet us @BritandCo!

6 "Outdated" Shoe Trends You Need To Let Go Of In 2025

We've been loving all the cute winter outfits we've seen this year and can't wait to see how others express their personal style in 2025. We're sure some people will continue going for the 'quiet luxury' look while others may prefer to re-vamp the mob wife trend. Whatever works for you is A-okay with us — except if you plan to wear outdated shoe trends.

There are just some pieces of fashion that should remain in the land of nostalgia instead of forcing them to be trendy again — and we know just what they are.

Find out which outdated shoe trends to stay away from in 2025

There aren't any rules stopping you from wearing these shoes, but they may raise an eyebrow or two. This is one of those times where we're not pretending we'll listen without judging.

1. Wedge Styles

As popular as these shoes were, it’s time to officially retire them. They have a way of reverting an outfit back to the early to mid-2000s and we’d love to not be reminded of our nights spent walking on sticky floors in a dark, sweaty club.

2. Shoes Without Heels

Jeffrey Campbell

We still can’t believe this was once a coveted trend, but we’re not afraid to admit we bought into it. Though we haven’t seen anyone wear heelless shoes in a while, we sincerely pray no one thinks about revamping them in 2025. They deserve to remain a nostalgic piece of fashion we hardly ever talk about.

3. Excessively Chunky Heels

Fashion Nova

There’s a chunky heel and then there’s something that looks like a walking cinder block. In a perfect world, we’d abolish the latter so they never see the light of day again. But, we know someone is still making heels that can cause serious damage if someone steps the wrong way so we’ll say this: try not to bring them into 2025.

4. Sequin + Glitter Shoes

Amazon

These were once one of the ultimate party girl shoes, but nothing says outdated quite like all-over sequin shoes. It doesn’t matter if it’s your birthday or not, wearing them is a style faux pas in 2025. The only time they’d be acceptable is if you’re going to an 80s-themed party.

5. Patent Leather Boots

José Martin Segura Benites

It almost pains us to say this but patent boots are officially on the outdated list. They were once considered the ‘cool girl’ shoe to wear. Now they unfortunately scream, “I’m stuck in my late teens to early twenties and I’m not ready to let go.”

6. Dominatrix Style Boots

Fashion Nova

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with wearing knee or thigh high boots. However, we’d love to see less of the dominatrix style. Unless you’re headed to fashion week and are working with a stylist to convey a certain look, please skip this outdated trend in 2025. We'd hate to see you appear on someone's 'worst-dressed' list.

Trader Joe’s Is Selling A Summer Fridays Lip Balm Dupe That Makes Lips Look “So Juicy”

You won’t be able to find the latest and greatest Trader Joe’s product on the bakery table or in the frozens aisle – instead, make a beeline to their beauty section.

That’s right – Trader Joe’s has a beauty section that hosts everything from toothpaste to hair oil. Whether you’re an avid Trader Joe’s beauty shopper or tend to glaze over their personal care goodies in favor of their epic desserts, you’re definitely going to be excited about this brand-new find.

To make things even more exciting, the find in question is an utter dupe of one of Summer Fridays’ most famous lip products.

@traderjoesobsessed / Summer Fridays

Behold the Trader Joe’s Lip Butter Balm Duo! Trader Joe’s fan account @traderjoesobsessed recently surfaced the amazing lip care find on their Instagram page, and I, too, am obsessed.

The duo consists of a Vanilla Mint flavor and a Brown Sugar flavor, both of which are packaged in tubes that look super similar to the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balms.

Each squeezable tube is also fitted with a clear applicator tip with almost the exact same divot.

@traderjoesobsessed

While a single tube of the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm goes for $24, the Trader Joe’s Lip Butter Balm Duo is shoppable for just $7. Shoppers are saying it makes a great stocking stuffer for the holiday season!

“Yes I’m obsessed!!!” one commenter wrote.

“Here for the packaging 😍,” another said.

“I love these! (And Summer Fridays!),” someone else commented.

Sephora

Some Trader Joe’s beauty fans did note that the TJ’s Lip Butter Balms boast a few differences from the famed Summer Fridays ones. A few shoppers highlighted the fact that the TJ’s balms aren’t as thick in consistency and don’t have a tint to them.

Nevertheless, several Trader Joe’s fans say that the formula of the new Lip Butter Balm Duo is “not sticky at all.”

One shopper said that it “makes my lips look so juicy.”

“These do actually hydrate/heal lips,” someone else noted.

Another said it “definitely leaves a nice glow and smells so good.”

That Viral 'Snow White' Trailer Now Has Over 700K Dislikes: "Toxic"

Disney's new Snow White live-actionmovie is no stranger to controversy — or very, very passionate fan responses. The movie (which stars Rachel Zegler and is set to premiere in theaters March 21, 2025) is an updated take on the classic 1937 film, and it's those very updates that people have a lot of opinions on. And when the official Snow White trailer dropped on December 3, hundreds of thousands of people disliked the video...and they didn't hold back in the comments.

Here's what the internet is saying about the Snow White trailer. (Spoiler alert: it's not good).

The 'Snow White' trailer has more dislikes than likes on YouTube.

Like any Disney movie, Snow White 2025 created an internet frenzy in its first five days on YouTube: the trailer already has 5.7 million views! But even though it has 28K likes, according to people in the comments, there are reportedly over 700Kdislikes (which you can see if you have a browser extension). "At this point, the monetization of this video is gonna earn Disney more revenue than the movie itself will," one YouTube user says in the comments.

"She doesn’t need the poisoned apple. She’s toxic enough by herself," another comment says, while a third reads, "I want the queen to win in this version."

Now, while YouTube comments can be fairly harmless (if incredibly rude and annoying), some people have taken it WAY too far. An insane since-deleted tweet from a user named Lee read, "Someone should kill you," to which Rachel responded, "fun fact i will be dying eight times a week on broadway this fall!!!!!" she says referencing her stint in Romeo and Juliet with Kit Connor. "get your tickets, lee! also @fbi."

Disney's 'Snow White' live-action movie isn't the remake to get backlash.

Now, backlash to Snow White isn't necessarily a surprise (even when it's VERY unwarranted) given how upset people were over Halle Bailey as Ariel in The Little Mermaid (even though it was a PERFECT casting choice!!) and rumors that Avantika Vandanapu would star as Rapunzel in a live-action Tangled (which, hello, would be another incredible casting choice).

Both of these women dealt with horrible, racist reactions, but like IRL Disney Princesses, chose to respond with strength and love. “Seeing the world’s reaction to it was definitely a shock," Halle told Edition. "But seeing all the babies’ reactions, all the brown and Black young girls, really tore me up emotionally."

THAT's what Disney movies are about; leaving the theater feeling more empowered and encouraged than you were before is why Disney princesses are so inspiring. I'm actually so excited to see Rachel Zegler as Snow White, not just because I've always been fascinated by the artistic challenge of adapting scenes and costumes into a totally different context, but also because how how Rachel will bring life to a role that literally only has 29 minutes and 19 seconds of screentime in the original movie.

In short: people are just haters and I think the Snow White trailer looks amazing! Check it out in theaters March 21.
