For spring and summer 2026, the in-style shoes are boasting alluring textures, surprising materials, nostalgic silhouettes, and mixed aesthetics. Some trends are bringing back classic looks that I've always loved, while others are about crossover styles that blend different footwear genres. But above all, texture is everything right now. It's time to rethink what shoes can be made of, and how they can enhance our everyday looks.

Let's explore what shoes are popular right now, and which ones you need to complete your 2026 warm-weather wardrobe.

Barrel leg jeans are on our radar, and probably on yours too. Maybe you've been admiring them from afar on Instagram, but now you're tiptoeing toward a pair of your very own. We're here to make sure you find the best barrel jeans for you, so you can embrace this style with open arms.

This is a somewhat complicated jean silhouette, blending skinny and baggy jean trends into something that feels simultaneously relaxed and refined. They're not always easy to style, and finding the right fit can be tricky. But once you have a pair of barrel jeans that complement your figure, you'll understand what all the hype over this denim shape is about.

They can look severe on the hanger, which deters many people from giving them a chance, especially those who aren't adventurous with their denim choices (like me). However, they're amazingly flattering once you know how to find your perfect fit. And to help you do that, the Rank & Style algorithm found the 10 best barrel leg jeans for every body type.

Although you can go out in the sun for a quick tan, there's nothing quite like a self-tanning moment. Now, don't get me wrong, I love the ease and affordability of self tanners, however, they can be a bit tricky to remove. If you're reading this, then you might be wondering how to remove self tanner. In fact, it's actually quite simple if you know what to do, but it can sometimes be a bit time consuming depending on how long it's been on and how tan you are.

"Removal is not instantaneous in most cases. Partial fading can occur after one session, but complete removal generally takes one to three days depending on how deeply the DHA has developed and the individual’s natural skin turnover," says Dr. Jenna Queller, MD, FAAD, board certified dermatologist and founder of DermWorks.

Ahead, we spoke with self-tan experts and dermatologists to learn the best ways to learn how to remove self tanner. Spoiler alert: You don't need to be super aggressive with the exfoliation despite what you've probably seen on social media.

How Long Should You Leave Your Self Tan On?

The longevity of your self tan will vary based on factors such as the application technique, product type and how long it's been on. "You’ll know it’s time when the tan starts to fade unevenly, typically around day five to seven. If you’re noticing patchiness, especially around hands, feet, or inner arms, then that’s your sign to remove and reset," says Isabel Alysa, celebrity tan artist, founder and CEO of Dolce Glow and Sunnee BaeSkin.

Additionally, Erika Vasco, beauty expert and founder of The Tan Edit, says if you notice a dull tone to the skin, then it's better to remove the self tanner and restart at that point rather than build on top of it. It's easy to convince yourself that your self-tan still looks good even if it's been over a week because it can be a hassle to reapply, however, you'll want to take an honest look at your skin to see if it's time to take it off.

How Do You Get Self Tan Off Quickly

If you want to figure out how to remove self tanner quickly, there are a few ways to do so. Keep in mind, when we say quickly, we mean in a few sessions and not instantaneously. It's worth noting that poorer-quality formulas tend to fade unevenly and much faster sometimes within two to four days, according to Mishel Chernyavskiy, celebrity spray tanner and founder of MSK Labs.

Getting dressed for summer plans usually feels easy—until it’s time to pick the shoes. Suddenly, everything either feels too casual, too uncomfortable, or like something you’ll wear exactly once before forgetting about it in the back of your closet.

That’s probably why dress sandals are having such a moment right now. Between weddings, dinners, vacation nights out, and all the last-minute plans that start filling up your calendar this time of year, having a pair that instantly makes an outfit feel more polished goes a long way.

So naturally, our product experts did the work for you and narrowed down the on-sale DSW dress shoes actually worth adding to cart. Think barely-there heels, metallic finishes, elevated neutrals, softer platforms, and the kinds of sandals that somehow work with almost everything already hanging in your closet.

Even better, every pair in this roundup is currently on sale, with select styles up to 40% off. And during DSW’s VIP Friends & Family Event, you can also take an extra 25% off regular-priced styles. Be sure to check out our DSW Coupons page for the latest offers before you shop.

Yoga studios can feel like they have a “uniform,” especially for highly specific classes like Bikram. How does everyone seem to magically know what to wear to hot yoga classes? Trust me, the answer is trial and error. I think every longtime yogi has probably regretted a yoga outfit at least once and learned an important lesson from it: the clothes matter.

Yoga is about being present and looking inward. A heated environment can challenge you on another level and encourage you to push yourself as well as respect your limits. Looking cute is fun, but comfort is what truly matters. Thankfully, you can still look good in steamy classes while making sure you feel good, too. As someone who attends 100ºF+ classes at least four times a week, I know what to look for in hot yoga attire, and I’ll give you all the tips and tricks below.

What Even Is Hot Yoga?

“Hot yoga” is a broad term, and with the westernization of many yoga styles, there’s no rigid definition. Here’s a quick breakdown of common hot yoga formats:

• Bikram: A rigid 90-minute format with 26 postures and two breathing exercises, usually in a room heated to 105ºF with at least 40% humidity.
• Hot Hatha: A slower, more flexible format for classes that are typically 60 minutes in a 100ºF room.
• Heated Vinyasa: A breath-to-movement style of practice that can be practiced unheated, but many enjoy these classes in a 90ºF+ room with 30%+ humidity.

Even very slow, calming classes like yin can be practiced in heated spaces, or hybrid classes like Power Sculpt. Vinyasa and Hatha can be heated or unheated; Bikram is the style that is very hot by tradition, and the one that people frequently describe as torture. I love it, but it’s not for everyone. Whichever style of hot yoga you do, these clothes are all suitable options.

Fabrics That Keep You Cool and Collected

You want performance materials that wick away moisture and won’t add to the suffocating heat in a steamy class. Cotton and full polyester are regrettable choices, but athletic polyester blends and airy fabrics like bamboo are just right. These are the best materials to shop for:

• Spandex
• Nylon
• Bamboo
• Modal

Your loose lounge pants may seem perfect for yoga, but you really need athletic clothes designed for intense movement. That’s why I recommend sticking with brands known for their yoga clothes, like Alo Yoga or lululemon.

Sunscreen is the most essential part of your skincare routine, yet it rarely gets the love or hype that skincare darlings like serums, treatments, and masks do. It's a non-negotiable, but between greasy formulations, not-so-subtle white casts, and the way it doesn't always play nice with your makeup, you might be tempted to pass on it. That is, until you try Korean sunscreen. These formulas deliver advanced sun protection with a barely-there feel and layer like a dream under makeup. Many are even loaded with the kind of bonus skincare ingredients you'd expect from a serum or treatment, which is the icing on the cake.

It's no wonder Korean sunscreens have taken over skincare TikTok, right alongside the rest of K-beauty's best. And if you've been scrolling through them on your FYP like I have, wondering which ones are actually worth trying, you're in the right place. We put the Rank & Style algorithm to work rounding up the best Korean sunscreens for your face (and body, too) across every skin type, formula, and finish, so you can stop guessing and just glow.

The sale section is one of those places you don’t really plan to browse—but always end up finding something worth it.

At Ulta Beauty, that’s especially true. Between everyday staples and a few more elevated picks, it’s the kind of mix where you can restock what you already use and try something new without overthinking it.

This time around, we kept it simple. These are the 20 products we’d actually add to cart—covering everything from makeup and skincare to haircare, SPF, and those smaller finds that tend to become part of your routine faster than expected.

If you’re going to scroll the sale section, this is a good place to start. Take a look at the Ulta favorites we’d pick up before they’re back to full price.

Let’s be honest—finding activewear that actually delivers on both style and performance isn’t as easy as it should be. Some pieces look great in theory, but once you put them to the test, the fit falls flat, or the fabric just doesn’t hold up after a few wears.

That’s exactly why we keep coming back to ALO. Loved by everyone from off-duty models to everyday minimalists, the brand has built a loyal following for a reason: flattering silhouettes, ultra-wearable fabrics, and that effortless ability to move from workouts to everyday plans without missing a beat.

And right now, there’s even more reason to take a look. ALO’s Aloversary is officially here—aka their biggest shopping moment of the year—with 30% off sitewide, available to shop on both the site and the app, no sign-up or code required. It's the perfect time to refresh your rotation with the styles everyone’s been reaching for lately.

From sculpting sets and sporty-chic skirts to off-duty layers you’ll live in, these are the ALO pieces that truly live up to the hype.

Go ahead—your new favorite set is waiting.
