Happy Sunday. Forgive the cliché, but we genuinely have a lot going on at the moment — with the Slack receipts to prove it. In addition to the wedding NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch referred to as “an event we are tracking at Madison Square Garden” (more on that below), here’s what else is on my radar:
My 11-year-old and I celebrated the United States’ 250th birthday last night by watching one of our greatest cultural exports, 1991’s Father of the Bride. What’s more American than Steve Martin’s hot dog bun crashout, I ask you?
National Women’s Soccer League star Trinity Rodman is on a hair journey that I don’t think any of us should miss.
Zendaya’s latest look — call it “heat-dome-conscious goddess chic” — continues to set the tone for what we can expect from the rest of her Odyssey press tour. As her stylist, Law Roach, said recently, “Don’t threaten me with a theme.”
While I wish happiness and a good defense lawyer to the couple who got engaged while illegally scaling the Empire State Building, the real story here is her manicure.
The US men’s soccer team plays Belgium in the FIFA World Cup tomorrow night after a hard-fought win against Bosnia and Herzegovina last week. No more red cards, please. Even Caitlin Clark was stressed.

Still can’t figure out how to style those long baggy shorts every fashion-y girl is wearing right now? Neither could we, until we saw these super wearable outfit ideas.
Even though we got a very small, very specific peek at their party (which included a red carpet) the day after, we're probably never going to know everything that happened inside MSG. But considering how much mental space we’ve given to this event over the past 10 months since our English teacher and gym teacher announced their engagement, we’re not satisfied with just a few crumbs. So we have some very serious guesses about how the rest of the night went down:
Taylor rolled to the aisle in her old ride from the Eras Tour to an orchestral version of “Wood.” In the coming days, it will be released on all major streaming platforms as “Wood (’Til Death Do Us Part Version).”
Travis’s brother and best man, Jason Kelce, gave a toast, but was incomprehensible over the sound of his sobs. Kylie Kelce, ever the OG, remained unfazed.
The bride gave the DJ a do-not-play list longer than her vows. (Don’t worry, we won’t get our hopes up about her playing anything off a certain singer’s new album.)
Guests were treated to signature cocktails named after the bride’s beloved cats (we don’t have to tell you which one Mariska Hargitay ordered) and to late-night bites of chicken tenders with her favorite condiment.
We can’t explain how we know this, but we just do: Este Haim did the worm, and she did it perfectly.
What a way to close out Pride Month: TheSecret Lives of Mormon Wives' Layla Taylor just came out as bi. Let's all raise a dirty soda in congratulations.
If this heat has you ready to hunker down indoors and stay there, then turn up your AC and turn on Netflix, because we’ve got a mystery to watch. I Will Find You(adapted from Harlan Coben’s novel by the same name) dropped last month, but this week it started breaking records as the most-watched Netflix series debut so far this year. The story follows David (Sam Worthington), a father wrongfully imprisoned for the murder of his son, Matthew (Jasper Rainn Lawrence). Upon learning that Matthew might actually still be alive, David breaks out of prison and, with the help of Severance’s Britt Lower, sets off to uncover the truth and find his son. It’s got twists, it’s got turns, and most importantly, it’s got Milo Ventimiglia. Need we say more?
Caroline, senior commerce editor, here. There are few things worse than when you are hot, sweaty, and sticking to a subway seat in short shorts. That’s why these linen pants have quietly become one of my favorite summer-in-the-city wardrobe staples. They’re soft, airy, and have a drawstring waist — which I consider the trifecta of cool (both aesthetically and temperature-wise) for the perfect summer pants. Plus, they don’t drag on the ground, which given my 5-foot frame is always a win. I grabbed them in blue, but honestly, I’m now eyeing the cotton-candy pink. I think it’d look unexpectedly chic with black accessories.

Happy Sunday. Public pools officially opened for the season in New York yesterday, and if the rain holds out long enough, you know that’s where I’ll be. It’s one of my favorite (and free) ways to spend a summer afternoon. Next, I’m going to a cheesemonger competition (yes, really) where I look forward to eating my weight in Brie. Here’s what else I’m thinking about…
As a longtime fan of Martha Stewart’s thirst traps, she’s convinced me to try the drugstore beauty product that she apparently uses to get perfectly glowy skin. If it’s good enough for Martha, it’s good enough for me.
Catching up on Every Single Album, my favorite pop music podcast, as the hosts dive into Olivia Rodrigo’s new album. (Yes, I’ve had “Expectations” on repeat for two weeks straight.)
This viral salty-sweet recipe has infiltrated my every thought, so I will not be able to rest until I try it. (Side note, do I need to up my sprinkle game?)

This moody, classic holiday hue is apparently the color of summer. And once you see these seven ways to wear it, you’ll wholeheartedly agree.
Forget your beaded clutch — this delightfully whimsical bag is making an even bigger splash among the fashion set, and it’ll make you want to play mermaids.
Bored of only ever painting your toenails red? (Same.) These are thecoolest pedicure trends to ask for at your next appointment.
Stop tying it around your head or waist — turns out, the most stylish way to wear a silk scarf is to do it like an early-2000s pop star. Only this time, your mom will actually approve.
Sure, it may only be Day 768 (sorry, 18) of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but we’re ready to declare that one man has won the whole thing. No, not Merlin the Duck. We’d like to crown Erling Haaland — the Norwegian striker who, as The New Yorker put it, “plays with the effectiveness of a sovereign wealth fund” — our MVP. Of course, there’s the obvious: He scored four of Team Norway’s seven goals during the group stage, but he's been hilariously nonchalant about his own success and whether or not they’ll beat France. (We love an expectation-managing Himbo king.) The goofy dude even encouraged his teammates to lean into the “Viking Row,” a Scandinavian twist on the wave that Norwegian fans have done in the stands, on a crowded NYC subway car, and in the middle of Times Square (bet they're all thankful for that Norwegian healthcare system, ja?).
Is the will-they-won’t-they? couple of the decadefinally going for it? After what can only be described as a yearslong flirtationship, Keke Palmer and Hot Ones host Sean Evans are apparently “hanging out.” For those unfamiliar with their lore: The two first hit it off when Palmer went on his show in 2017, and by her second appearance in 2021, the chemistry was capital-P palpable. Lest you assume everyone was just getting carried away, Evans straight-up admitted he had a crush on the actress during an appearance on Chicken Shop Datein 2023 (nothing like a chicken-based talk show to get the conversation flowing). But it wasn’t until their third date (correction: Hot Ones episode) last year that they finally broke the touch barrier, when Palmer asked the host for “a quick smooch to see if there’s a spark.” Apparently, as Palmer put it, the “sparks are sparking,” because earlier this month, the two were spotted having dinner together in Brooklyn — sans mics, so you know they meant business. Finally, we enter into evidence Palmer’s coy answer when asked about Evans during a panel this past week. All this has us wondering: Are they just hard-launching a hot sauce collab? Or is this really true love? TBD, but we know exactly what they should serve at their wedding.
The middle seat. Cramped legroom. The uncomfortable mattress. Travel pains add up, as do long days on your feet having new adventures. Pushing through soreness isn’t always the answer. Instead, the American Physical Therapy Association recommends being proactive to prevent injury and keep aches from snowballing. See a physical therapist to build strength and flexibility to keep pace with your itinerary and recover faster — especially if you’re typically less active or doing something new. No doctor referral needed. Think “PT for Future Me” and find a PT near you.*
And you thought your dinner party was a disaster? Enter The Invite, Olivia Wilde’s latest directorial effort, which centers on two couples living in the same San Francisco building. In it, Wilde and Seth Rogen play bickering married couple Angela and Joe, while Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton star as Piña and Hawk, their upstairs neighbors, who, up until this point, are best known for their…noisy nighttime activities. When Angela invites them over for dinner, things go in ways both expected (obviously, a doomed soufflé is involved) and unexpected (hint: the titular invite is not a dinner) as the, ahem, foursome navigate passive-aggressive quips, flirty come-ons, middle-aged angst, and a few major reflections on marriage and monogamy. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, you’ll think twice about inviting over your sexy, mysterious neighbors.
For the soon-to-be mom in your life, you can't go wrong with this thoughtful postpartum gift. Grab it while it's still on sale.

Another week, another Mad Libs pairing of public figures. This time, it’s Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun, who, per People, spent Labor Day weekend in Lake Tahoe as they “continue to get to know one another.” Now, if a lakeside getaway sounds major, this is probably where we should note that a source called it a “casual romance,” seemingly confirming an earlier report. Plus, another source told Us Weekly the Euphoria actress is “not exclusively dating anyone right now but is having fun” with Braun. Meaning, whatever this is, it isn’t serious — yet. As for how the two met? That’s a little unclear. A source “close to Sweeney” told People there was “something going on already” when they attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding and that “Syd was intrigued” even though Braun is “not really her type.” That said, the apparently very chatty insider added that the actress, who broke off her engagement earlier this year, is “not looking to get wrapped up in another relationship.” Because she “wants to make the most of every work opportunity that comes her way” — which tracks given that on Tuesday, the Serial Spokesmodel rolled out her estimated 11th ad campaign this year. Hopefully it goes smoother than that last one.
Is anyone doing courtroom fashion better than Cardi B? We enter into the evidence, Exhibit A, which is this very trendy, very expensive Valentino ensemble. Exhibit B: this tweed set, plucked straight from Giambattista Valli’s fall 2025 runway. Your honor, we rest our case.
Breaking news: The Paper, the kinda-sorta spin-off of The Office, has arrived on Peacock. While the title might have you think otherwise, the 10-episode series is not about Dunder Mifflin’s primary product. Instead, it follows The Toledo Truth Teller, a once-mighty Ohio newspaper, now chronicled by the same documentary crew that filmed Michael Scott and his employees. Leading the “newsroom” is Ned Sampson (Domhnall Gleeson), a star toilet-paper salesperson turned editor in chief determined to restore the paper to its former glory. But with just one qualified reporter (Chelsea Frei) and a vindictive managing editor (The White Lotus’s Sabrina Impacciatore), it’s nearly impossible. So, he recruits volunteers from other departments — leading to plenty of endearingly awkward moments, absurd confessional cutaways, and interoffice crushes.
Tired of feeling like motherhood is a never-ending competition? Same. Who’s crawling first, whose kid eats more broccoli, whose baby sleeps through the night — it’s exhausting. Which is why Alex Morgan (yes, that soccer legend) is teaming up with Bobbie to retire the “who’s winning” mentality and rewrite the motherhood “rules.” Think: less comparing, more connecting.*
