There's a reason white denim shorts show up in every summer capsule—they're just one of those pieces that go with everything and make you feel put-together with zero effort. Whether you gravitate toward a relaxed bermuda, a cut-off with frayed hems, or something that hits mid-thigh and stays put, the right white short does a lot of heavy lifting for very little styling work.

We've rounded up the best white jean shorts on the market right now, from budget-friendly staples to elevated, stretch-forward fits that move with you all day. Each pair was chosen for how well it fits, wears, and holds up to summer's demands—no stiff denim or see-through fabric here.

Scroll through to find your perfect pair, then pair it with everything from tanks to button-downs for a look that carries you from morning errands to evening plans.

Lounge pants have graduated from purely at-home staples to a wardrobe category all their own—worn on errands, warm-weather travel days, and even out to coffee, not just curled up on the couch. The best versions now strike a real balance between elevated and easy, built from fabrics light and soft enough for sticky summer afternoons but cut with enough shape to feel intentional anywhere else.

That balance shows up in the range of silhouettes brands are offering: fluid wide-leg and flare styles that skim the body and breathe in the heat, relaxed joggers and sweatpants built for movement, and folded, high-waisted shapes that add a little polish without sacrificing comfort. Fabrications lean toward lighter jerseys and modal blends this season, though brushed fleece and waffle knits still have a place for air-conditioned indoor days.

Below, we've gathered a range of lounge pants worth having in rotation—some built for maximum coziness, others designed to double as real daytime wear, but all sharing the same goal: comfort that doesn't ask you to compromise on style, whatever the season.

Tank tops have become the most versatile piece in the summer wardrobe—and this year, brands are pushing the silhouette in far more interesting directions than the standard cotton basic. From boned corset tops to peplum hems and sheer halters, the humble tank is being reimagined with the kind of structure and detail usually reserved for going-out tops.

This season's trending styles fall into two clear camps. On one side, there's a sculptural, body-conscious mood—compression fabrics, corsetry, and hardware accents that bring an edge to warm-weather dressing. On the other, a softer, more textural approach is taking hold, with smocking, pintucks, lace trim, and delicate embroidery lending an easy, romantic feel.

Below, we've rounded up 16 of the season's most compelling tank tops, spanning a range of brands, price points, and moods—so whether you're after a polished layering piece or a statement top built to stand alone, there's something here for every kind of summer.

I’ve been doing Pilates videos at home for years but when I recently decided to start going to a class at an actual studio, I suddenly thought “am I wearing the right thing?”

So if you've been there before your first Pilates class, you're in good company.

Here's what I’ve noticed now that I’ve attended a few classes: there are quite a few different things you can wear. I saw matching sets next to regular workout clothes. Sports bras under tank tops and on their own. Leggings of all colors and cuts. But beneath all that variation, there is a clear pattern in what is suitable for Pilates. The people most at ease were wearing clothes that were form-fitting and moved with them.

This guide covers the best types of bottoms, tops, and Pilates attire for every class format, including what to know before your first reformer class and whether you actually need grip socks (you probably do). Here’s everything you need to know about what to wear to a Pilates class.

What Makes Good Pilates Clothing?

Pilates is different from running or lifting in a way that directly affects what you should wear. In a regular gym workout, your clothes just need to stay out of the way and you can wear whatever you’re comfortable in really.

But in a Pilates class? Different story. You're doing these incredibly controlled movements on the mat and getting into positions where a loose top can literally fall over your face mid-exercise (and yes, I'm speaking from real experience here).

Your instructor also watches your alignment and form throughout class, so wearing form-fitting Pilates clothing helps them see what your spine and hips are doing so that they can advise you better.

Meera Watts, founder of Siddhi Yoga and a Pilates instructor since 2013, says that when a student's clothing drapes or bunches over the body, the hip line disappears and you can’t clearly see the curve of the spine, which means corrections get made based on incomplete information.

She had one student who wore wide-leg trousers to every session. Turns out, that student had a pelvic tilt she'd been carrying for years. One day, she showed up in fitted leggings, Meera noticed the tilt immediately, and it was corrected within two classes.

"When I don't have a view of what I'm working with," Meera says, "that kind of misalignment can take months longer to catch."

What to Look for in Pilates Clothing

There are three things that truly matter for Pilates clothes:

1. Fit: You want clothes that sit close to the body but that aren’t so tight that they’re uncomfortable.
2. Fabric: Breathable fabrics and moisture-wicking fabrics are good choices. Pilates is surprisingly sweaty for a low impact workout, especially in a heated studio. Look for nylon-spandex blends, soft ribbed stretchy fabrics, or styles with mesh panels for extra ventilation.
3. Range of motion: Stretchy fabrics are absolutely non-negotiable. You won’t be able to get the moves right if you’re wearing anything stiff or restrictive.

When it comes to price, you don't need expensive Pilates activewear to have the right outfit for class. Good Pilates clothes can be any activewear that fits well and stays put when you’re doing the exercises.

That said, if you're doing Pilates regularly, I rate it’s worth investing in a few quality pieces that you will get good wear out of. You can also get quality pieces at a good deal. For example, look for ALO Yoga coupons to save yourself some money on a great set.

There’s a real art to knowing what to splurge on and where it counts—I’m all about being frugal chic at the moment.

What to Wear to a Pilates Reformer Class

Reformer Pilates and mat class share the same general clothing principles, but the reformer adds a few specific things worth knowing before your first class.

The reformer is a spring-based resistance machine with a sliding carriage, straps, and a footbar. Loose fabric can catch on the springs or straps during exercises. That’s why this is the one class format where I'd say that fitted clothing is a must and my go-to is fitted high-waisted leggings and a longline bra top.

Things to avoid when you go to reformer classes:

• Waistband hardware like metal clasps or decorative rings
• Back zippers
• Embellishments on the back panels of your top or leggings

All of these can scratch the carriage padding. Simpler is always better here. I’d also highly recommend tying your hair up. You really want to avoid it accidently getting caught in the springs or carriage—trust me.

Lastly, most studios require you to wear grip socks so check before you go and grab yourself a pair.

Call it the French summer effect, but suddenly all we want to wear are romantic white blouses. Maybe it's because they make denim feel a little prettier, linen pants a little chicer, and getting dressed a whole lot easier. Whatever the reason, we're fully embracing the trend—and judging by our feeds, so is everyone else.

Forget stiff button-downs. This season is all about airy cotton, delicate embroidery, eyelet details, and easy silhouettes that are anything but basic. They feel feminine without being fussy, timeless without feeling old-fashioned, and they're just as perfect for a weekend brunch as they are for a dinner on vacation.

Naturally, we went looking for the best ones. After browsing our favorite retailers, we narrowed it down to 18 styles we'd happily add to our own closets. Whether you're after a timeless blouse you'll wear for years or a trend-forward pick for the season, these are the ones we'd recommend without hesitation.

First dates are full of emotions. Excitement, possibility, and usually a little stress. Dozens of questions might be running through your mind as you get ready, like will it be awkward? Did I remember to wash my hair? Will we kiss? Will we fall in love and live happily ever after? Okay, maybe I’m getting ahead of myself. One other slightly more practical question you might have is, “what should I wear?”

Picking a first date outfit matters for a few reasons. First, you want to make a good first impression, and showing off your personality through your style is one way to do so. Secondly, you want to feel your most confident, and the right look can make a big difference. Selecting the wrong pieces might have you itching, shifting around, and feeling constricted. Selecting the right ones, whether it’s a cute mini skirt, your coziest sweater, or your superpower top, can bring out your best self. Looking and feeling like a million bucks can ease some nerves on a first date that so many of us feel.

But, choosing what to wear on a first date isn’t as simple as grabbing your favorite dress, and it’s helpful to have an idea of what to expect when going through your closet or perusing online boutiques. There’s a couple of key factors to consider when selecting your outfit.

Tips for Creating Your First Date Outfit

Consider the Weather

The weather plays a huge factor in what we wear everyday, and that extends to date outfits. If you’re too hot or cold on the date, you’ll inevitably be uncomfortable. Keep an eye on the forecast ahead of the date, especially if there’s an outdoor component. If it’s a chillier fall evening, break out your best jacket. If it’s a hot summer day, a light dress or cotton top might be a good call.

Consider the Activity

Typically, you’d dress differently for going into the office versus going to a cocktail lounge with your girls. Dates should be viewed similarly. Depending on the activity, whether it’s a coffee date followed by a walk, nice dinner out, or nosebleed tickets to your local basketball game, each type of outing deserves a unique outfit that fits the theme of the outing.

Consider the Time

Like the activity, the time of the date impacts what you should be wearing. Daytime dates can be more casual affairs, and pieces like sundresses, light wash jeans, sneakers, t-shirts, and shorts are all generally considered appropriate. Nighttime dates usually veer towards more elevated style, like dark denim, structured jackets, cocktail dresses, and heeled shoes. With all of these tips in mind, let’s get into outfit ideas for first dates.

I’ve been remotely working from home since 2020. I understand the leggings-and-sweatshirt rut. You put on the same lazy outfit everyday, because why dress up to hide in your home office? But what you wear matters, even at home.

It’s psychological. Wearing a comfortable business casual outfit can put you in work mode, so you’re not tempted to slink over to the couch and watch “Love Is Blind” on the low.

From chic loungewear sets to easy-to-wear slacks, I’ll give you the recipe for comfortable work-from-home outfits that make you feel confident and competent. They’re lounge-ready looks that can transition straight to the office, making them phenomenal outfits for hybrid workers. This is how to dress when working from home.
