]]>Zendaya in Maison Margiela/Givenchy
We can always count on Zendaya to nail the Met Gala dress code, and she did it twice this time around. She kicked things off with a Maison Margiela siren dress, decorated with organza, tiny vines, grapes, and birds, before rocking an equally stunning vintage Givenchy dress.
Gigi Hadid in Thom Browne
Gigi Hadid gave us one of the most spectacular floral dresses at this year’s ceremony in a Thom Browne gown, decorated with two million white micro beads and rose appliques.
Cardi B in Windowsen
At first glance, Cardi B’s Windowsen gown doesn’t seem to have anything to do with Met Gala’s theme, but there’s a catch! The rapper wanted to transform into a black rose this year, instead of taking the obvious floral route.
Tyla in Balmain
Tyla delivered one of this year’s most artful red carpet looks in a sandy Balmain gown, but did she follow the theme? She didn’t wear any florals, but her dress was supposed to evoke the sands of time and she even hit the red carpet with an hourglass in hand!

]]>Challengers
Zendaya has been the queen of method dressing long before this term was coined, and she lived up to her reputation while promoting Challengers. She wore countless tennis-inspired looks while doing promo for this movie, and mostly stuck to dressing in green and white to pay homage to the sport that’s at the very heart of Challengers.
Dune: Part Two
Zendaya also gave us countless amazing red carpet looks while doing promo for Dune: Part Two, and she didn’t have to do it all alone. The whole cast of this film was on top of their fashion game, giving us several statement looks inspired by Arrakis, including Florence Pugh and Anya Taylor-Joy.
Immaculate
Zendaya’s Euphoria co-star Sydney Sweeney took a page from her book and used method dressing to promote her horror film Immaculate. Her approach was more subtle, but the black-and-white looks she relied on during the press tour were a clear reference to her nun character in this film.

]]>Nike’s Athlete-Informed Design Philosophy
Nike’s design for the 2024 Paris Olympics track and field uniforms was heralded as being “the most athlete-informed, data-driven and visually unified” the company has ever produced. Nike involved athletes in the development process to ensure the uniforms met their needs for choice, comfort, and performance.
The aim was to reflect the distinct identities and diverse communities of each sport. As a result, the range includes close to 50 unique track and field uniform options for both men and women. This provides a variety of silhouettes tailored for various sports disciplines, body types, and sizes.
The Medal Ceremony Uniforms
Looking beyond the competition, Nike also revealed the official medal ceremony outfits for Team USA. The designs feature zipped jackets with mock collars and slim-fitting pants, both made from stretch-woven materials with Dri-FIT lining.
Anything Else?
Beyond performance wear, Nike has also embraced cultural trends, unveiling the Nike Jam, its first shoe designed specifically for breakdancing, in celebration of the sport’s Olympic debut in Paris.

]]>The post How to Curate Your Ear Piercings for a Chic and Cool Look appeared first on simbaly.
]]>Balance Inner And Outer Piercings
If you want to, getting some piercings done on the inside of your ear – on the tragus, rook or daith – can help balance out those going around the outside of the lobe and cartilage. Do be aware, inner ear piercings can be painful and take a while to heal, but if you persevere you can end up with some stunning options for curating your finished look.
Combine Hoops And Studs
For a pretty, balanced look, combining ear studs with hoops can be a great way to go. Some people choose to make an impact by opting for all studs or hoops, but generally a combination of the two looks more interesting and considered. Start off with smaller, delicate hoops if you have concerns that they will look too chunky in your ears.
Gem It Up
Gemstone earrings are a great way to vary your look and draw attention to your ears. Experiment with different stones in an array of colors, or stick to one tone to keep your ear curation looking coherent and complete. Neutral gems such as opals work great with silver and gold toned jewelry, so you will be able to mix and match around your gemstone earrings.

]]>Mix and Match
Gone are the days of matching swimsuit sets. This season, embrace the mix-and-match trend. Play with bold prints and vibrant colors, or keep it classic with a chic black bikini top paired with a high-waisted white bottom. Don’t be afraid to experiment with textures—a crochet top with denim shorts adds a touch of bohemian flair, while a sleek bandeau paired with a flowy sarong exudes effortless sophistication.
Cover-Up Chic
For cover-ups, think breezy and comfortable. A flowy maxi dress doubles as a beach cover-up and a sundress for post-swim errands. Kimonos in lightweight fabrics like linen or cotton are another great option, offering effortless layering and a touch of beachy elegance.

Lastly, the right accessory will give you a fun and finished look. Consider adding a beach hat (wide-brimmed or baseball hat). Oversized sunglasses in statement frames are another fun option. And don’t forget waterproof jewelry—delicate anklets and layered necklaces add a touch of personal flair.

]]>The Appeal of Monochrome
There’s something undeniably sophisticated about wearing a single color. It creates a seamless and cohesive look that’s both modern and minimalist. Dressing in one color can also visually elongate your silhouette, making you appear taller and slimmer.
Colorful Fashion (@andrea.colorfulstyle)Crafting Your Ensemble
When selecting your color, consider your skin tone and the occasion. Pastel shades like lavender or soft pink can be perfect for daytime events, while deeper tones like emerald green or navy blue exude sophistication for evening outings. Neutrals like white, black, or beige offer maximum versatility and timeless appeal.
Don’t be afraid to mix materials like silk, velvet, denim, or knitwear within the same color palette to add depth and interest to your outfit. And don’t forget, layering pieces in the same color family can add dimension to your look. For example, try a cozy sweater over a dress in the same hue.

]]>Let It Go
While it’s difficult to part ways with your old clothes, it’s worthwhile to consider how often you wear each outfit. For those that you don’t wear anymore, it may be best to either donate them, sell them, or throw them away so that you can make room for new clothing.
Add A Second Closet Bar
If you’re bent on maximizing closet space without getting rid of old clothes, add another bar for long-hanging. This will double your clothing capacity in this section.
Leave The Closet
If your closet is close to full capacity, take a look at some other storage options. If you normally hang certain tops and shorts, maybe fold some of them and place them in a drawer to free up some space.
