madewell lisa says gah collaboration

Madewell and Lisa Says Gah! just collaborated to bring forth the coolest collection of the summer. Packed with some super cute (and very vacation-ready) styles, the 20-piece collection features everything from white jeans and flowy shorts to colorful graphic tees and breezy vacation dresses. There's even some really chic swimsuits involved! 👀

Each item, inspired by the dreamy Greek isles, combines Madewell's classic energy with Lisa Says Gah!'s signature playfulness. The capsule centers around stark whites and serene blues, which give *huge* Mamma Mia energy.

“It's so special to work with Madewell. It has always been a brand that resonated with me,” said Lisa Bühler, Founder and CEO of Lisa Says Gah. “The attention to detail in Madewell's craft, fit, and quality perfectly complements the playful and delightful prints from Lisa Says Gah. We looked to calming hues of blue and white, channeling Greece for a summer-inspired Gah! twist.”

Shop the Madewell x Lisa Says Gah! summer collection below – it's bound to sell out very soon!

Embroidered Button-Front Shirt + Embroidered Drawstring Pull-On Shorts

I love how opulent yet casual this linen-blend set is. The stark white definitely gives the impression of wealth, while the loose-fitting silhouette delivers exceptionally chill vibes. The button-up shirt and pull-on shorts are decorated with blue motifs of plants, fruits, shells, and fish, which channel the Greek isles perfectly! You'll get lots of airflow from this lightweight duo, too. The shorts feature an elastic waistband and small drawstrings for a super customized fit, however loose or tight you like it. This pick would also make such a great swimsuit cover-up!

The Embroidered Button-Front Shirt is $88 and the Embroidered Drawstring Pull-On Shorts are $68.

One-Shoulder Mini Dress

I seriously want to live in this mini all summer long. It's comfy, cute, and confidence-boosting! It's made from a linen-cotton blend that's lightweight enough for even the hottest of summer days, plus it's swarmed in the most adorable graphic print. Illustrations of wine bottles, lemons, olive branches, and more cover the smooth blue background to tap into a vacation-y mindset. The one-shoulder shape gives your look some much-needed breathing room, while the mini length is perfectly summery.

The One-Shoulder Mini Dress is shoppable for $128.

Scoop-Neck One-Piece Swimsuit

The swimsuits are probably my favorite part of the limited-edition collection from Madewell and Lisa Says Gah! The first one-piece is dotted in multicolor doodles that are sure to turn heads, whether you're at the beach or laying out poolside. The scoopneck neckline dives even deeper along the back side to reveal some skin, if that's your jam! The high-cut leg holes supply an elongating effect, flattering your figure even further. This swimmie is lined on the inside and made from 82% recycled polyamide and 18% elastane for additional stretch.

The Scoop-Neck One-Piece Swimsuit is available for $98.

Shell Cord Choker Necklace

This necklace makes the the perfect minimalistic complement to the garments in this summery collection. It boasts a unique cotton red cord and a perforated gold-plated shell charm that's totally on-theme for a Greek beach getaway. It secures with a small lobster clasp closure.

The Shell Cord Choker Necklace is $42.

The Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Crop Jean: Printed Edition

Covered in the Madewell x Lisa Says Gah! color print, these jeans are undoubtedly an ahh-mazing statement piece to keep in your closet this summer (and beyond)! It's the summer of white jeans, and these branch out in a such cute and colorful way. The hem falls right around the ankles, so they're not too long nor too cropped. You'll feel all-day comfort from the vintage-y stretch denim material, too. Though the high waist is fitted, it still assumes some good stretch! Also, the front button is actually a little gold seashell, and I'm obsessed with it.

The The Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Crop Jean: Printed Edition go for $148.

The Denim Emmett Short: Patch Pocket Edition

These denim shorts are a total throwback style, and they feel really 70's to me. The braided belt line and front patch pockets definitely contribute to that, and it's just perfect. Additionally, the vibrant medium wash has me in a chokehold. The material these denim shorts is made of is both generously stretchy and a little rigid for all-day comfort. This pick is unbelievably easy to pair with a white tank top and your go-to flip flops for an effortless summer 'fit.

The Denim Emmett Short: Patch Pocket Edition is shoppable for $128.

Cutout Midi Dress

Consider this midi dress as your ultimate go-to dinner date outfit. It's an easy one-and-done since all you have to do is slip it on and stun. I love the super flattering milkmaid dress-esque style that surrounds the bust before flowing down to an a-line skirt. The length lands around the calves, so you can show off your favorite summer heels! This dress features thin braided straps (nice touch!) and two wide side cutouts for added breathability. It truly makes me wanna frolic by the Grecian seaside. Someone take me there ASAP!

The Cutout Midi Dress currently goes for $138.

Boxy Utility Shirt + Button-Front Maxi Skirt

This set is a very purple departure from the rest of the collection, but the light, breezy linen-blend fabric it's cut from definitely encapsulates the laidback energy Madewell and Lisa Says Gah! were going for. The set features a loose-fitting boxy shirt paired with a side-buttoned maxi skirt – it works wonderfully as a duo, or each piece can be styled alone. The skirt features mismatched buttons that are all super on-theme with the collection's beachy vibe.

The Boxy Utility Shirt is shoppable for $85, while the Button-Front Maxi Skirt is $118.

Drawstring Pull-On Shorts

These deep royal blue shorts with white accents make getting ready for the beach (or pool) super easy. They slide on and off with the help of an elasticated waistband, but you can also adjust the fit with the drawstring around the waist. This pair boasts a 3-inch inseam to let you show some leg, plus they have two discreet front side pockets and one on the bum for storage purposes. They're made from responsibly sourced and sustainably processed linen + other fibers, which is a huge win in my eyes.

The Drawstring Pull-On Shorts go for $58.

Graphic Softfade Cotton Crewneck Relaxed Tee

Beyond the beach, this graphic tee wears *so* well with your favorite pair of jeans and some chic sneakers. It definitely beats any old college t-shirt you've got lined up! It's made to be slouchy and supremely breathable – crafted from 100% cotton, you'll be able to tackle the sunniest summer days with ease. This pick is also shoppable in plus sizes!

The Graphic Softfade Cotton Crewneck Relaxed Tee goes for just $42.

The Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Crop Jean in Eyelet White

The high waistline and wide legs on these white jeans shape your figure in the most flattering way, and they look sooo elegant when worn. Though the stretchy denim fabrication (98% cotton) feels and looks good, you may have to be a bit diligent about what you wear under 'em. This pair of pants has some patch pockets that surround the front and back, a braided detail along the waistline, plus a gold seashell button closure for beachy flair!

The The Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Crop Jean in Eyelet White is shoppable for $148.

Square-Neck One-Piece Swimsuit

The second swimsuit from the Madewell x Lisa Says Gah! collection is fitted with a trendy square neckline and a diving back so you can get your tan on. This pick has some pretty high-cut legs, but still retains a good amount of coverage around the bottom. You'll be able to customize your perfect fit with the two adjustable straps, plus the added UPF 50 sun protection isn't a bad deal at all. It's the perfect statement piece for dipping into the salty seas or simply your nearest pool!

The Square-Neck One-Piece Swimsuit is available for $98.

Two-Pack Freshwater Pearl Necklace Set

The big pearl on this necklace set captures summery seaside vibes perfectly with a hand-painted citrus design. The two-piece layered necklace further features blue glass seed beads on a thread with a the tiny fish bead that's everything to me. This adorable accessory has a clasp closure with adjustable length.

The Two-Pack Freshwater Pearl Necklace Set currently goes for $56.

8 Modest (& Flattering!) Winter Outfits That Will Make You Look Amazing

Short party dresses or skirts aren't abnormal during winter, but you may want to participate in the trend without sacrificing on modesty. Or, you might want to bypass that for an outfit that keeps everything 90-95% covered. Winter is the one of the seasons where I like to keep it modest because I like protecting my limbs from frostbite. It's not fun to freeze — nor is speeding up flu symptoms — but more power to y'all who can still rock those looks in these temps!

If you're stuck in a winter style rut and need a few stylish ideas, I have 8 modest ideas you'll love recreating at home!

Check out the best modest outfits for winter that will look totally amazing all season long!

1. Turtleneck + Wide Leg Jeans

Jasmine Williams

Finding a modest outfit combination that works during winter feels like finding a needle in a haystack sometimes, but there are fail-proof options! For example, wearing a turtleneck sweater with a pair of wide-leg jeans is something anyone can pull off. Both cover all parts of your body save your hands and feet, plus you can drape a winter coat over your shoulders!

2. Teddy Coat + Classic Button-Up Shirt

Brit + Co

A classic button-up shirt add a naturally polished appeal to any outfit because they can be dressed up or down. Though this outfit features a 'white top and jeans' combo with black loafers, the short teddy coat gives it a casual feel. It's great for anyone who doesn't have time to change after work to meet up with friends for dinner and drinks!

3. V-Neck Sweater + Cargo Pants

Jasmine Williams

Despite its seemingly plunging neckline, a v-neck sweater is for all the girls who love modest outfits. You can easily opt for a hemline that rests at the bottom of your waist, but the oversized or tunic look works too! Pair it with cute cargo pants and a pair of ankle boots, and you have an awesome outfit on your hands!

4. Denim Skirt + Lightweight Coat

Brit + Co

There's no need to force yourself to like the mini bubble skirt trend just because it's included in a few holiday new arrivals. You can stick to a midi denim skirt, tights, and a lightweight coat if that feels more comfortable. As far as I'm concerned, it's a low-fuss outfit idea that can take you from family holiday pictures to date night.

5. Smocked Top + Ankle Boots

Brit + Co

A smocked top can still be worn during winter, but you just need to make sure you have a nice trench coat to go over your entire outfit. Also, check to make sure the sleeves are flouncy enough to peek through for a modern renaissance moment!

6. Rib Knit Top + Bandeau Dress

Jasmine Williams

Let's address the elephant in the room: I don't recommend that you wear strappy heels during winter if you're going to be walking through snow. But, you can absolutely wear a rib knit top under a bandeau dress. Just makes sure it's a longline option so your outfit remains modest!

7. Denim Jumpsuit

Jasmine Williams

I love a good denim jumpsuit, especially if it has a similar features of cargo pants. However, that's not a requirement for anyone. The goal is to wear something that still speaks to your personal style as long as it's long-sleeved and doesn't have any cut-out action going on!

8. Barbie Pink Coat + Straight Leg Jeans

Jasmine Williams

Lastly, a Barbie pink coat and a pair of straight leg jeans is one of the easiest modest outfit combinations you'll love wearing this winter. The only thing I recommend wearing is a sleek rib knit or cotton sweater with them so nothing feels bulky.

Max's Newest Rom-Com Is Basically 'When Harry Met Sally'

The holidays are about spending time with your loved ones and eating a ton of good food. And apparently it's also time for breakups. In Max's new movie, Kiernan Shipka and Nico Hiraga play two best friends trying to navigate friendship, relationships, and adulthood during their first year at college. When they make a pact to break up with their significant others, they wind up having one of the most chaotic nights of their lives on Drunksgiving (when people party the Wednesday before Thanksgiving). We don't get many Thanksgiving-themed movies, and I'll take every one we can get!

Here's everything you need to know about Sweethearts, including our interviews with Kiernan Shipka, Nico Hiraga, Caleb Hearon, and Jordan Weiss!

Our Interviews With 'Sweethearts' Stars Kiernan Shipka, Nico Hiraga, & Caleb Hearon And Writer Jordan Weiss

Sweethearts might be the ultimate cozy holiday season watch, but its cast and crew can't stop gushing about cozy classics like When Harry Met Sally and Harry Potter. ("Oh, my childhood," Kiernan Shipka says with a nostalgic edge to her voice. "All the meals, the dining hall." This, too, is what I envy the most about the Hogwarts lifestyle).

Writer-director Jordan Wiess declares herself a When Harry Met Sally superfan and says the movie "always makes me feel [good]. The sweaters and the style, and it always reminds me of the fall...ObviouslyThe Holiday is one of my favorite Nancy Meyers movies that always have to watch in December. And then a re-watch of Gilmore Girls is mandatory for the fall."

What do all of these titles have in common? Memorable relationships and oh-so-cozy backdrops. And in Sweethearts (on Max November 28), two best friends decide to break up with their high school sweethearts over Thanksgiving break, and wind up running into all their old friends during their mission. So, naturally, I have to ask for their best advice for returning home for the holidays!

"I've told people that I've had childhood crushes on that I didn't tell at the time, 'By the way, I had a huge crush on you,'" Kiernan says. "It's so fun to say the thing you've never maybe said to someone that you've always wanted to. I mean, that's fun to me. I would say maybe do that if you can find an old crush that you never expressed your feelings to. Even if it's just for the fun of it."

"I like going back and doing a lot of the old things I grew up doing with the old friends that left the Bay or stayed in the Bay," Nico Hiraga adds. "That's special when you go back and just treat it like no time went by at all, you know, do the same old traditions."

But for Caleb Hearon, it's out with the old and in with the new. "Going and seeing a bunch of people you haven't seen in a while I think, try on something new," he says. "Bring up a new music you're listening to, wear a bold shirt. Just try on something new when you're coming home from college. I remember going back to my small town from college and I was trying out new clothes. I was trying out new phrases. I was testing things out, seeing what people liked and didn't like. They don't know who you are now!"

Clearly, heightened emotions around going back to your hometown is a universal experience, and for Jordan and co-writer Dan Brier, it was important that the storyline fit right in with those classics we all know so well.

"Dan and I had a lot of conversations where we're like, 'Ok, what if you gave Superbad or Booksmart the male-female friendship When Harry Met Sally treatment — but in the shape of one of those raucous buddy comedy night-where-everything-goes-wrong type of movies."

They also pulled from John Hughes titles like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, "where an adventure is unfolding in a really limited span of time. And the characters are having a pretty complete emotional arc happen through this one crazy day or one crazy night."

Sweethearts is full of crazy moments, from house parties to college roommate horror stories, and the chemistry in those scenes is just a reflection of how close the cast and crew got on set, which Jordan equates to being at summer camp. Caleb remembers "laughing so hard that we had to muffle it so you don't ruin sound."

"I really hope people have truly half as much fun watching this movie as we had making it because we had the goofiest happiest set," Jordan adds. "Shout out to Nico who was definitely our onset DJ who had a wireless speaker with him on his cast chair at all times. So the second we would call cut, he was grabbing the speaker, blasting the tunes. I have so many funny videos of Kieran and Nico just dancing it out in the middle of the night because we were shooting mostly all throughout the nights and you gotta find creative ways to keep the energy up at four in the morning."

"One of my favorite parts in the movie is when Ava DeMary (Claire) sings the national anthem and it's only in there for about 15 seconds," she continues. "We need to release the full four-minute performance because it got so unhinged, and also just all of Caleb's faces that he was making at her when she was singing. I have to find out if we are going to cut a blooper reel."

Considering how close the cast got, and Kiernan's track record for starting cast group chats (she's gone viral multiple times for revealing she texts her friends and costars good morning), I'm not surprised to learn she started a Sweethearts cast chat. I am surprised, however, to learn she started at least four!

"It's that thing where we have so many people," she says. "There's like one hero, bigger group chat that I think is like eight people. And I think it's called Via Carrot because it was a play on Via Carota [and] someone was like, 'Oh, I'm gonna get there via carrot.'"

"But then it's that thing of like it's me, Caleb, Me, [Nico], Jordan, and Dan," she continues. "But we all have one group chat where like one person is there or we have a smaller one. So we maybe have five others, and there's just the three of us called Friends Are Life...There's a lot going on. I'm gonna accidentally text the wrong one."

44 Early Black Friday Deals You Can Start Shopping Now

Black Friday is coming up quickly, with thousands of retailers flaunting their best deals of the year. We're shoppers at heart, so you know we're already scoping out 2024's offerings! Given that the list of stores and brands hosting Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales this year is essentially endless, we're weeding out only the best deals from the places you love to spend (and save).

From beauty faves like Dieux and Kiehl's to home goods from Amazon and Walmart, these are the Black Friday deals you simply can't miss.

What is Black Friday?

Kaboompics / PEXELS

Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving that typically signifies the start of holiday shopping season, though many retailers have started to launch their Black Friday deals earlier year over year. A lot of the deals that stores and brands offer during Black Friday outpace their other sales events (such as Memorial Day and Labor Day) in terms of savings.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Gustavo Fring / PEXELS

Black Friday will land on November 29, 2024.

What is Cyber Monday?

Cottonbro Studio / PEXELS

Cyber Monday is the Monday after Thanksgiving that highlights savings and deals online as opposed to in-store offers. It's one of the busiest times of year for online shopping.

When is Cyber Monday 2024?

Anna Shvets / PEXELS

Cyber Monday will land on December 2, 2024.

When's the best time to shop for holiday gifts?

Vlada Karpovich / PEXELS

We're big believers that it's never too early to start shopping for holiday gifts. The sooner you shop, the better, so you can check everyone off your list ahead of the busy holiday season and have some peace of mind once the real festivities start! Plus, if you're shopping online, starting early gives you ample time to wait for items to be shipped and delivered to your door. If deals and savings are what you're looking for, Black Friday and Cyber Monday offer some really great opportunities.

What's the best thing to shop for during Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

Kaboompics / PEXELS

The best thing to shop for during Black Friday deals and Cyber Monday promotions really depends on what your needs are as well as the items you're scoping out to treat yourself (or the people you're gifting for the holidays). Typically, big-ticket items like home appliances, tech products like earbuds, laptops, TVs, and tablets, and luxury self-care tools are heavily discounted during this time.

22 Classic Christmas Movies The Whole Family Will Love

As much as I love binge watching new Christmas movies (shameless plug for Our Little Secret, I loved it so much), there's nothing like sitting down with your family to watch a classic Christmas movie. After all, they're classics for a reason! These picks are great for the littlest of kids, but they're still entertaining enough for the rest of the fam. Someholiday moviesare black and white, and some are a little more recent but, but they're all must-see movies.

No matter what kind of film you're looking for, keep reading for the BEST classic Christmas movies to watch this holiday season!

CBS/ABC/Apple TV+

A Charlie Brown Christmas — On Apple TV+

If you don't have time for a full feature film, opt for this animated special instead. Charlie Brown explores the true meaning of Christmas, family, and friendship when he's put in charge of the holiday pageant. This cartoon is so cute, and it's the perfect length for when you need a quick mealtime watch!

Columbia Pictures

Little Women — On Paramount+

Sisters Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy are dealing with a Christmas with no presents and, even worse, no Father while he fights in the Civil War. But as they encounter love and loss throughout their adolescence, the older they get, the more they realize the greatest gift was each other.

Columbia Pictures

The Holiday — on Prime Video

This classic Christmas movie (which stars Jude Law, Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, and Jack Black) has everything you could dream of: a house swap to a dreamy location and a run-in with handsome strangers. Say no more.

Warner Bros.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation — On Max

Clark Griswold is determined to give his family the best Christmas vacation ever. Unfortunately, it's totally on brand for the entire holiday to become a giant disaster.

RKO Pictures

It's a Wonderful Life — On Roku

The first classic Christmas movie on our list is one that my dad tried to get me to watch for years. I finally watched it and I cried almost the entire time. It's A Wonderful Life follows George Bailey, who's taken to an alternate reality where he never existed and realizes just how much he as to live for. This movie will definitely make you appreciate the people you love.

Legacy Releasing

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer — Rent On Amazon Prime

Stop motion holiday movies were my entire childhood, and this one is a super cute addition to any family gathering. It expands on the iconic reindeer's story and features romance, danger, friendship, and even themes of identity and belonging. Go Rudolph!

Universal Pictures

Love Actually — on Prime Video

Any rom-com fan will want to tune into this classic, which tells the story of multiple lovestruck (or heartbroken) characters and will make you feel totally seen.

Columbia Pictures/Sony Pictures

Christmas With The Kranks — On Prime Video

Jamie Lee Curtis might not have won an Oscar until 2023 for Everything Everywhere All At Once, but she deserved one for this classic Christmas movie ;). Luther and Nora have decided to all but cancel Christmas with their daughter in Peru. But when she comes home at the last minute, they must figure out how to have a spontaneous celebration.

Warner Bros.

The Polar Express — on Max

If you ask me, it's not a proper holiday without watching this iconic animated movie. Tom Hanks voices both the train conductor leading children to the North Pole and the little boy who isn't sure he even believes in Santa.

20th Century Studios

Home Alone — On Disney+

If you prefer a hilarious Christmas movie, then Home Alone is exactly what you need. 8-year-old Kevin McCallister is left behind when his family goes on their holiday vacation. As fun as it sounds, he starts to get tired of being ~home alone~ pretty quickly — especially when two burglars decide to target the house.

Disney

Eloise At Christmastime — on Prime Video

Speaking of spunky children, take a trip around the Plaza Hotel with Eloise, who basically rules the roost. With Gavin Creel as the lovable Bill and Christine Baranski as Prunella, this is one classic Christmas movie you'll want to watch even when you're not a kid anymore.

Disney

A Muppet Christmas Carol — On Disney+

By this point, A Muppet Christmas Carol is a classic Christmas movie that you'll remember for years to come. Every iteration puts a new spin on the tale, but this version is definitely Gen Z's favorite. The movie follows Ebenezer Scrooge, a stingy bachelor whose life is changed when the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future visit him on Christmas Eve.

New Line Cinema/Warner Bros.

Elf — On Hulu

Even though this movie takes place in a post-Y2K world, it is absolutely a classic Christmas movie at this point! Buddy has spent his whole life thinking he's an elf, but when he learns he's a human — and that his dad is living in New York City — he goes on an adventure to find the family he never met. If anything will spark a lifelong love of narwhals, it'll be this movie. This is also a fun movie to watch after Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer because it's supposed to be the same world!

MGM Studios

A Christmas Story — on Max

If you watched Elf and thought that Ming Ming the elf looked familiar, it's because he's played by Peter Billingsley from A Christmas Story! In this holiday classic, Ralphie does what every kid does the closer we get to Christmas: begs his parents for his dream gift, a Red Ryder BB gun.

Touchstone Pictures

The Nightmare Before Christmas — on Disney+

Pumpkin king Jack Skellington is in for a surprise when he finds Christmastown...and decides to kidnap Santa and take on the mantle of the jolly old elf. Tim Burton's musical delight is perfect for anyone who considers themself just a little bit more of a Halloween person (we get it!)

20th Century Studios

Miracle on 34th Street — On Disney+

There are two versions of this classic Christmas movie you can add to your watchlist: the 1947 black and white film, or the 1994 version starring Matilda's Mara Wilson. The story follows an independent single mother, a man on a quest to prove he's Santa Claus, and a little girl looking for something to believe in. I cannot recommend it enough, for real.

Paramount Pictures

White Christmas — On Prime Video

This movie is my family's non-negotiable yearly watch, and TBH, everyone needs to see it! White Christmas is a musical that follows Bob and Phil who team up with sister act Betty and Judy to save an old friend's failing Vermont inn. For even more of a recommendation, my family genuinely and spontaneously breaks into any song from this movie as soon as the holiday season stars.

MGM/Warner Bros/CBS

How the Grinch Stole Christmas! — On Peacock

This classic Christmas movie (which I prefer to the Jim Carrey version, but you do you, boo) follows the titular Grinch, who decides to ruin Christmas by stealing presents, decor, and food from the Whos in Whoville. This heartwarming story really serves as a reminder that Christmas — and life — is more than material objects.

Image via Universal Pictures

How The Grinch Stole Christmas — Rent On Amazon Prime

In this spin on the aforementioned cartoon, Jim Carrey plays the Grinch, who hates Christmas and can't stand the Whos of Whoville. This is a full feature film so they've added some extra plotlines the original doesn't have, but TBH, it just makes it more memorable.

CBS

Frosty The Snowman — on Hulu

Another classic Christmas movie that kids of all ages will love! When Frosty comes to life and befriends some local children, they have to team up to prevent him from melting.

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

The Santa Clause — On Disney+

Tim Allen stars as Scott Calvin, who must step into the red, cookie-loving shoes of Santa Claus when he accidentally causes the previous Santa to fall off his roof. After decades of Santa stories, I always loved how original this one is!!

ABC/Disney

The Year Without a Santa Claus — Rent on Apple TV+

"I'm Mister White Christmas, I'm Mister Snow!" Whether you've been singing this song since the special aired in 1974, or you've seen all the TikToks, it's a better time than ever to rewatch the story of the elves trying to convince Santa to carry out his annual trek.
