This Color *Could* Be the Next Millennial Pink

Millennial pink, we’ll be sad to see you go, but we’ve found a new hue to spice up our summer wardrobe. Step aside Gen-Z yellow (and millennial orange, for that matter) — lime is here to swoop in and steal the spotlight. Described by Man Repeller as a “variation of green that shuffles somewhere between acid and lime,” the polarizing hue is just getting started with early adopters like Reese Blutstein ‘gramming their latest lewks. Coincidence? We think not. (EvenQueen Elizabeth II tried it out in a neon-bright Stewart Parvin coat and Rachel Trevor hat during a recent engagement.) Should you fully commit to a head-to-toe Gumby green ensemble or opt for just a pinch of the buzzy color, scroll through to see how these 16 Instababes are going green.

Waiting for that first G&T of the weekend 😎 Ok I might be home in my PJs already, waiting for #HugoHarrel to go down to tuck into some Netflix action 😜 This week wasn't nearly as productive as I intended it to be, you know these weeks when either your body, your mind or even both are not following the plan at all?? Well we rolled with it, we rested when we could, even chucked in some extra self-care by ways of meditation (although my heart would race and panic when I used to try it for just 5mns, now I'm hooked and need it twice a day, never thought I'd get there 😯 🎉 and it's changing my life, loving the @calm app 🙏🏾), massage (@itsseun told me about @urban_massage, I wanted to try reflexology but there was no woman available for that one, and I wasn't sure about having a man into my house massaging my feet 🤣 I love a foot massage, it makes me make weird noises though 🙈 - so I had a full body one instead and it was great) , lots of journaling, cuddles with friends and rosé (it's officially the season ☀️😎). On these slow weeks, try to extend yourself more love, care and compassion instead of beating yourself up for moving slowly, you'll get your mojo back more quickly, and there's actually more time to reach your goals than social media allows you to think 🙈 [Tap for details - will add links to outfit in my Stories, you won't believe how cheap this set is 😜]

New on WWW.DYLANASUAREZ.COM | It’s true that we have so much access to everything and anything now because of the existence of social media. As a result, there exists time when the creative process is cut in half because of it. But isn’t that mostly the part that we really need to preserve in the first place? The process. Maybe what we need less of is looking for and consuming outside inspiration, and more digging purely within ourselves. What would you create if you couldn’t look at something or someone online to spark that first artistic motion? To me, that would be the most interesting thing to create. Because it would be truly unique. That’s my goal. To take in less, and to put out more. It sure is hard in this digital realm, but I am going to try.

These 7 Amazon Fashion Picks Make The Easiest Summer Outfits

Are you packing last-minute for atrip? Have you been looking for the perfect cover-up but can't seem to find it anywhere? Well, don't worry, I've got you covered! You know how much I love Amazon over here. They not only have a million things to offer, but they have them at unbeatable prices.

Many pieces from mysummerwardrobe are from Amazon, because they always seem to have exactly what I'm looking for (and usually in 15 other colors too). There are so many good summer clothes to choose from, but I have sifted through some pieces that I think are perfect staples for your warm weather wardrobe.

Amazon

Anrabess Linen Palazzo Pants

These comfy pants are great for any summer activity. I love a good basic that you can style however you want! If you're going on vacation this summer, I highly recommend grabbing a pair of pants like these, because you will not regret having a good pair of breathable linen pants. You can find these in literally any color for $36!

Amazon

Cozyease Floral Embroidery Knot Front Cami Top

This $27 top looks like it comes straight from Urban Outfitters or Abercrombie & Fitch. Flowy tops are super trendy again, and they are flattering on everyone. I love the detailing on this white and blue top, but there are four other patterns to choose from. I can imagine walking around in Greece wearing this top, especially with these colors!

Amazon

Zqffb Swim Cover-Up

Don't miss out on a good swimsuit cover-up this summer. I used to just wear a big t-shirt to the beach, but I recently graduated to wanting to look a bit more put together with cover-ups like this one. This top is great to just throw over your suit and pair with some shorts or linen pants for a full 'fit! You can shop this cover-up in white or black for only $20.

Amazon

Light Dot Halter Neck Dress

I love, love, love this pattern! I recently ordered a dress from this brand, and the material is incredible. It's durable, yet very breathable. This halter dress is perfect for a party or date night. And can we talk about the neckline? So fun! If you want to incorporate more patterns and colors into your wardrobe this summer, I highly recommend checking out this $33 flowy dress.

Amazon

Ferbia Crochet Drawstring Shirt

I want this $25 top in every color. You can never go wrong with a knit top in the summer because they are so nice and airy. The drawstring is unique and allows you to adjust the top to your liking. You can wear it as a top or as a cover-up for the beach. Personally, I would love to style this with a long white maxi skirt.

Amazon

Mebius Womens Floral Mini Dress

Everyone needs at least one good floral dress in their wardrobe. They are so fitting for the spring and summer seasons, and you'll be wearing it all the time when it gets warm. I was immediately drawn to the shape of this dress. I love the criss-cross neckline and the stretchy waist. Dare I say, this is the perfect picnic dress! You can get this one for $32.

Amazon

SeekMe Linen Short Set

You can look so effortlessly put together with any matching set. But as we know, linen and summer go together like wine and cheese. You can style this set in so many different ways that one outfit can end up becoming six! If you need to pack light on vacation, get this $30 set – you will not regret it.

Yay! Margot Robbie Welcomes First Baby With Husband Tom Ackerley

Margot Robbie has a son! The Barbieactress and her husband Tom Ackerley welcomed their first baby in early November after a very busy year (after all, she announced she'd star opposite Ryan Gosling again in an Ocean's Eleven prequeland boarded a Sims & Monopoly adaptation as producer).

The Sirens producer proved she has impeccable pregnancy style at Wimbledon and a red carpet, and I just know she's going to have amazing mom style too. Here's everything you need to know about this new family of three.

How many kids does Margot Robbie have?

www.instagram.com

Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley have one child, a son! A source confirmed to People that the couple had welcomed their baby boy on November 2.

People also confirmed Margot Robbie is expecting a baby in July, the same day images of the actress showing off her growing baby bump went viral on X (formerly Twitter). In the images, Margot's standing with Tom on a dock, wearing black trousers, a black blazer, and a white tee rolled up to rest above her stomach. Leave it to Margot Robbie to make chic pregnancy wear look effortless!

www.instagram.com

Margot Robbie later attended the L.A. premiere of My Old Ass — produced by Robbie and starring Aubrey Plaza — on September 9, 2024. The ever-elegant star rocked a muted, off-the-shoulder bodycon dress (hello, fall style inspo!) and some adorable strappy heels! Her simple hair, makeup, and jewelry allowed her most major accessory to shine here — her bump! This is the first time we've really seen Robbie since her Wimbledon appearance, and it's no surprise that her look absolutely did not disappoint.

Who is Margot Robbie's husband Tom Ackerley?

Jeff Spicer/Getty Images

Margot Robbie married Tom Ackerley in 2016 after they met on the set of Suite Française in 2013. Tom is an actor (he appeared as an extra on the first three Harry Potter movies), and a film producer. The two also co-founded their production company LuckyChap Entertainment in 2014 and have worked on movies like I, Tonya,Promising Young Woman,Maid, and Saltburn.

What have Tom Ackerley and Margot Robbie said about their relationship?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley love spending time together, and Tom told The Sunday Times they spend "24 hours a day together."

"It’s seamless," he continues. "We don’t have a toggle on, toggle off. It’s all become one thing.”

“Being married is actually the most fun ever, life got way more fun somehow," Margot told Porter in 2018. "I have a responsibility being someone’s wife, I want to be better."

Margot has also been vocal about how frustrating it is to constantly be asked about children, telling Radio Times in 2019 that, "I'm so angry that there's this social contract," she says. "You're married, now have a baby. Don't presume. I'll do what I'm going to do."

What is Margot Robbie's baby name?

Phillip Faraone/Getty Images for FIJI Water

Margot and Tom haven't officially shared their baby's name yet, but we're all ears should they choose to do so.

How old is Margot Robbie?

Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images

Margot Robbie just celebrated her 34th birthday on July 2. Tom Ackerley turned 34 on June 13, so there's only a one-month age gap between this celeb couple.

We're sending all the best wishes to Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley! Check out Hilary Duff Officially Gave Birth To Baby #4! for more adorable baby news.

7 Flattering Summer Dress Trends We Can't Stop Shopping Right Now

Summer 2024 is the summer of many things. It's Brat summer, the Paris Olympics (yay Team USA!), and the second round of the Eras Tour. There is so much to do and so much going on — we're booked and busy. Naturally, we need outfits for all the events we are attending, whether that be going to brunch with friends, a family barbecue, a blind date, or even just a solo day around town. I don't know about you guys, but I pretty much spend the majority of my summer in sundresses. They beat the heat, and are super adorable doing it. There are hundreds of dress options out there, but here are some of the dress trends we're absolutely obsessed with this year.

Backless Dresses

ASOS

ASOS halter neck low back maxi sundress

Let those shoulders breath, girl! There is something so subtly sexy about a backless dress, and bonus points when it has a halter neckline. This dress gives you a great excuse to throw your hair in an updo, especially in the summer heat.

​Bubble Dresses

H&M

H&M Bubble-hem Dress

We are SO back with the bubble skirt hem. Now, they may not be as puffed out as they were in the '80s or the early 2000s, but may this trend never die. You can never go wrong with a little movement and a little flare to your summer look. Today, you can find all styles of bubble dresses and skirts...and I am loving it.

Euro-Summer Linen Dresses 

J.Crew

J.Crew Squareneck midi dress in linen

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the linen trend is here to stay. It is so timeless that it's totally worth investing in a nice linen dress that will last forever. You can wear it out to dinner on vacay, or just throw it on to run errands around town. If I were to create a capsule closet (which TBH I could never — I'm way too much of a maximalist), I would a million percent include a white linen dress.

​Sleek Slip Dresses 

Aritzia

Wilfred New Only Slip Satin Midi Dress

Hello, sexy! This is the perfect nighttime dress for going on a date or drinks with the girls. The simplicity of a slip dress acts as a perfect canvas for all kinds of accessories. I would love to wear this dress with some kitten heels, a statement necklace, and a clutch.

​Puff Sleeve Dresses

Abercrombie & Fitch

The A&F Emerson Linen-Blend Puff Sleeve Mini Dress

I have sang my praises about this specific Abercrombie dress many times before, but in general, puffed sleeves are such a funky addition to a basic dress. They add nice dimension and are flattering on any body type!

​Ruffle Dresses

Free People

Free People More Is More Mini

Like this More is More Mini dress by Free People, more IS in fact more! Sometimes, additional fabric creates flowy movement that aligns with the free spiritedness of summer. This dress makes me wanna spend the day running around on the beach or in a field barefoot somewhere.

Cottagecore Dresses

Aritzia

Sunday Best Strudel Poplin Maxi Dress

I hope cottagecore never dies. This poplin Artizia dress is everything and more. It's cutesy, and perfect for any day event. You can make this look super casual, or elevate the dress with some heels.

12 Holiday Decorations That Will Make Your Neighbors Totally Judge You

Don't get me wrong, tacky holiday decorations can be a lot of fun, from ugly sweater parties to Griswold-style outdoor lights. I love strolling the neighborhood for the most OTT holiday houses and thinking creatively what I'll wear to my friend Marie's annual corny Christmas party. I'm here for all the intentional tacky decor.... just not in my home. Tacky can also mean plastic and wasteful and just well hard to look at if you're going for any sort of non-tacky decor aesthetic. If you want to invest in more natural holiday decor this year (fresh pine wreaths, linen tree skirts, beeswax candles), steer clear of these tacky holiday decorations!

Super-Sized Yard Decor

Wayfair

Fionnula Bumble Lighted Display

As much as my kiddo loves these over-the-top inflatables and animated light-up figures, I have to say no to the super-sized lawn ornaments, like Santa riding a motorcycle, enormous snowmen, or this Bumble Lighted Display from the movie classic "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." They can be pricey and take up a ton of storage, but for those who love them the more the merrier!

Christmas Light Explosions

Shutterstock

Covering every square inch of your house, trees, and yard with twinkling, multicolored lights or flashing LEDs can look chaotic and well crazy. It's an art form to get it right, but when done well it can bring holiday cheer to the block. When done wrong, well, it's sort of a waste of time and money.

Tinsel Snot

Amazon

Amazon Christmas Icicle Tinsel

Is tinsel making a comeback? Please say it isn't so. It not only looks tacky IMHO, but it makes it harder to recycle your natural tree. (Our Girl Scout chapter picks up our trees the day after Christmas for recycling - but not if there's tinsel on it!). Anyway, if you have nostalgia feels for tinsel, go for it sparingly and avoid this drippy snot look. We want to see that pretty tree!

Ugly Christmas Sweaters

Tipsy Elves

Tipsy Elves Women's Ugly Christmas Sweater

Ugly Christmas sweaters are intentionally tacky, but what's with all the stores capitalizing on them? I liked it back when you could get creative and DIY your holiday sweater, but now you can find racks full of garish colors, clashing patterns, and glittery appliqués. Maybe we can rein it in this year?

Overly Trad Decor

Wayfair

Faux Lighted Wreath

The angels, the harps, the bells, the Merry Christmas sign, oh my! Overly trad Christmas decor can make a home feel dated. Sure, if you have some childhood favorites, toss them into the mix of modern-day neutral holiday decor, like natural linens, fresh garland, and naturally scented candles.

Metallic Garland

Amazon

Amazon Metallic Garland

Can we just skip the metallic garland this year? It's wasteful, it's hard to wrap and unwrap around your tree (so much so you just want to toss it in the trash after), and it just makes your tree look like a blast from the past.

According to Stanford University's Waste Reduction, Recycling, Composting and Solid Waste Program, household waste increases by more than 25 percent during the holidays with additional waste like packaging, wrapping paper, and one-use decorations contributing an additional 1 million tons of landfill trash each week from Thanksgiving to New Year's. Better alternatives? Satin ribbons, dried orange slices, cranberry garlands, and felt garlands that you won't throw away. Even the classic construction paper chain link would be an upgrade!

Corny Theme Pillows

Amazon

Christmas Theme Pillows

I'm on the fence about the Buffalo plaid too, but it's a classic pattern (we just see it everywhere now). The pillows on the other hand are a little much, no?

Chair Covers

Amazon

Christmas Chair Covers

Why do we need these? Maybe just tie a velvet ribbon with mistletoe or add Scandi-style sheepskin to your chairs and call it a holiday.

Christmas Character Themes

Amazon

Grinch's Christmas Tree Decorations

The Grinch's green isn't quite Christmas green, putting it even higher on the tacky spectrum. Anything with characters says tacky to me and sort of distorts the meaning of the holidays.

Bathroom Decorations

Amazon

Christmas Theme Bathroom Decorations

If you want to make your guests giggle, this tacky set will do the trick.

Porch Banners

Amazon

Christmas Porch Banners

Loud and proud!

Kitschy Tea Towels

Amazon

Amazon Christmas Towels

The jokes just don't quite hit the way they should. Also, the traditional red and green are killing me! But of course, there's a time and place for tacky Christmas decorations and bringing a little joy to the season. Happy holidays!

5 Shows That Are (Almost) As Good As ‘Nobody Wants This’

How many times am I going to mention Nobody Wants Thisbefore this year ends? The world may never know — but I'm doing my best to move on from it...at least until we finally get season 2! Instead, I'm here to talk about all the shows you can watch right now that feel similar to Kristin Bell and Adam Brodyin the best rom-com I've ever seen. I'm not pretending that they're going to give you everything Nobody Wants This did, but they hold their own weight as standalone shows worth watching.

Amazon Studios

Fleabag

Looking for the much spicier version of Nobody Wants This? Well, Fleabag has just what the doctor ordered. As Fleabag (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) haphazardly grapples with grief, she boldly speaks her mind and refuses the support of others. She's known for her, uh, colorful language and is seen juggling an awkward love life.

Both seasons are available to watch on Amazon Prime!

John Medland/Hulu

How To Die Alone

How To Die Aloneis the one of the closest TV series that feels like Nobody Wants This because it follows a similar formula. But instead of centering around two people whose lives intersect, viewers are introduced to Melissa (Natasha Rothwell). She's taken a laissez-faire approach to life because she's basically given up on it and doesn't see the point in try to hope for more. It isn't until a rude awakening knocks her off her feet that she decides to start making more intentional choices. The more Melissa truly starts living, the more she's able to find a spark of magic in everyday living.

Stream it on Hulu today!

Apple TV+

Platonic

I , for one, love when pop culture champions genuine platonic friendships between men and women. So often we hear that it's impossible for the opposite sex to keep things friendly, but Platonic exists as the best counterargument. Viewers get to watch two former best friends — Sylvia (Rose Byrne) and Will (Seth Rogen) reconnect after something soured in their friendship. They quickly find themselves in hilarious scenarios that make their everyday lives a little more stressful than they'd like and it doesn't take long for the cracks in their foundation to start showing again. Overall, there is love in this show but it normalizes the way it shows up in friendships.

Be sure to watch it on Apple TV+!

CW

Sullivan's Crossing

If you haven't watched Sullivan's Crossing yet, what are you waiting for? Before I watched Nobody Wants This, this TV series was #1 on my list — and I hardly ever binge watch new shows anymore. It could have something to do with the fact Chad Michael Murray makes us wish he were Cal Jones in real life.

Anyway, the series is all about neurosurgeon Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) and her return to her hometown. She slowly starts reconnecting with the people she left behind — including her dad (Scott Patterson) — and a potential romantic interest that adds color to her life.

Barbara Nitke/Netflix

Based on a True Story

Although there are elements of love in Based on a True Story, it's something true crime fans will thoroughly enjoy because it revolves around everyday people who set out to make money based on the popularity of the genre. Ironically, Ava Bartlett (Kaley Cuoco) has the same obsession as other people who can't stop listening to podcasts or watching documentaries about serial killers or unsolved mysteries. Not only does it put a strain on her personal relationships, but she and her husband Nathan realize there's a serial killer in their inner circle that has to be stopped before they hurt more people.

Binge watch the first and second seasons on Netflix this weekend.

Trust me — these are the TV shows that will keep your group chat buzzing until Thanksgiving. Follow us on Facebook for more recs!
