Fashion says a lot about who you are, but also about where you are going.

And especially in summer when there is always an event going on, the dress code is unspoken but specific. You already know when you look at your closet what you want to wear to brunch on Sunday versus the picnic you have planned next week.

Fashion speaks for the event, and it ends up contributing to the vibe. Check out these 10 outfits depending on your summer plans to embody that vibe and help you seek inspiration. You can pull pieces from your summer capsule closet,  current trends and some timeless statement pieces.

10 Going To The Beach

This year the fashion scene has been quite strong when it comes to beachy vibes and getting that always-on vacation look or the coastal look. A favorite look due to its use of comfortable items is leaning into coastal vibes with a two-piece outfit, a button-down with boxer shorts over a bikini with a bucket hat.

The more you can coordinate the colors, the better but it is absolutely not necessary.

Johnny Depp has reportedly signed a multi-year, lucrative contract with Dior as the actor continues his comeback tour.

However, the unsealed documents from the defamation trial between the actor and his ex-wife Amber Heard have caused quite a stir on social media.

During the six-week trial earlier this year,  Depp fans claimed Dior was one of the few brands that did not distance themselves from the actor.

The former Pirates of the Caribbean star is the face of their Sauvage fragrance for men, and the fashion house reportedly enjoyed an uptick in sales during the trial.

Depp largely won the defamation trial with the jury coming back with all three counts in his favor, with one going to Heard.

The unsealed document reveals the former couple’s messy allegations against each other, unearthing more text messages and photos.

Dior shares support for Johnny Depp after Sauvage deal

Johnny Depp has reportedly signed a multi-year, seven-figure contract with Dior.

Some reports claim that the actor will earn $1 million for continuing as the face of Sauvage fragrance for men.

Dior posted a series of Instagram posts to announce the deal, one of which showed Depp on stage in Paris, where he performed with Jeff Beck.

“Watch @johnnydepp as he takes the stage at @olympiahall in Paris, the legendary concert venue where he saw @vanessa.paradis and introduced his kids to @bobdylan. Like Sauvage, it represents the idea of something fearless yet human. By: @gregwilliamsphotography,” the caption reads.

Another Instagram post quotes Depp’s love for the fragrance and the “sense of memory” the smell gives him, along with backstage photos of the actor.

Tula Is Coming for Your Makeup Bag With New Skincare-Foundation Hybrid Perfect for Summer

It’s not just the heat of the summer that makes me want to skip foundation. I live in Los Angeles so it’s pretty warm here year-round. It’s the look of the summer, the casual vibe that makes heavy foundation feel like too much. Tula’s new Radiant Skin Brightening Serum Skin Tint is just that and more. It features skincare-like ingredients with the perfect amount of coverage to nourish my skin and let my freckles still show through.

This isn’t just any tinted moisturizer. This newbie contains a blend of rainbow seaweed and niacinamide to help brighten and even skin tone, as well as hydrating hyaluronic acid and ceramides, prebiotics and probiotic extracts, and line-smoothing collagen. Yes, this is all in one skin tint. Plus, there’s broad spectrum SPF 30 to help protect your skin from UVA/UVB rays. (As always with SPF in makeup, we still recommend wearing sunscreen underneath.)

There are a whopping 30 shades to choose from, which take into account undertones. That’s more than when usually see for a shade-forgiving skin tint that has long-wearing, buildable light-medium coverage. (Foundation is different, of course. We expect 40+ shades in that case!) This ensures the perfect match you’ll wear all the time — summer and beyond.

While I prefer to focus on what’s inside a makeup product instead of what isn’t, Tula has the list of “nos” you might be looking for. I especially like that this formula is fragrance-free and formulated without dairy, gluten, parabens, sulfates (SLS and SLES), phthalates, mineral oil and petrolatum. It’s also cruelty-free so bunnies are safe here.

The oldest living WWII nurse celebrated her 108th birthday

“Pearl earrings and pearl necklaces, and that fits her personality. If you think about Monteleon you definitely think of a jewel”

DUBLIN, Ga. — The oldest living WWII nurse celebrated her 108th birthday right here in Central Georgia. 

The Carl Vinson Medical Center threw Meta Monteleon a birthday celebration to recognize her for her service.

For nurses Tina Montford and Nicole Dent, Monteleon has plenty of nuggets of wisdom to share.

“She’s just a joy to take care of. She brightens my day every time I see her,” Dent said. 

She was wearing a birthday crown that sparkled, and pearls she wears everyday.

“Pearl earrings and pearl necklaces, and that fits her personality. If you think about Monteleon you definitely think of a jewel,” Montford said. 

Her jewelry preferences, fitting, because the pearl is a symbol for wisdom.

“She has a very welcoming and warm spirit. She’s genuine everything about her is just lovely,” Montford said. 

Monteleon served a total of 3 years in the army, with 2 of those years in Pearl Harbor taking care of German prisoners of war.

“She’s always been a life long learner and insatiably curious,” Duke said. 

Monteleon’s daughter Martha Duke enjoys seeing the recognition her mother has gotten these last 10 years of her life once she arrived at the Dublin VA.    

“She tries things and does things that other people don’t necessarily do at that age, and other people like knowing that,” Duke said. 

At 98, Meta gave a speech at the VA’s memorial day service.

“I am telling you when she gave that speech she brought the house down,” Duke said. 

At 99, she did chair yoga, making CBS news.

“Everybody was so fascinated by the fact that a 99 year old was doing chair yoga,” Duke said.

20 Cute Summer Outfits That Will Make Dressing a Breeze

Summer is heating up, and if you’re searching for cute outfit ideas for the beach, summer weddings and any other occasion while you’re having sun in the fun, you’ve come to the right place. Looking your best in a heatwave can seem challenging at times, but it doesn’t have to be. If there is one thing to remember this summer, it’s to keep things easy. “Looking and feeling effortless is key when it comes to summer dressing,” Sari Sloane, founder of Everafter and The Westside, tells WWD. This philosophy is the solution to perfecting any summer look. 

Choosing your shapes and fabrics for summer should both be simple (think one-and-done dresses, flowy pants, and wide-leg jeans). “Soft and natural silhouettes are perfect for warm evenings, and bright pops of color reflect summer’s happy vibe,” Sloane says.

More from WWD

“The fabric should feel soft, light on the body, and comfortable,” Meredith Melling, Chief Officer of La Ligne, tells us. “When temperatures rise, staying cool and comfortable are high priority. I tend to gravitate towards breezy cotton dresses and flat sandals. If I find a versatile dress that I love, I can accessorize it in so many different ways to suit different occasions.”  

Accessories are crucial when it comes to situational dressing. Swapping a beach bag for something smaller and with more structure for evening, can completely change a look. Changing out a sandal for a heel, elevates any outfit for evening. “Location, crowd, and vibe all contribute to choosing the right outfit,” Sloane says. “A barbecue, beach party, or dressing for a vacation all lend themselves to different styling. My advice is to get into the mood of the party or trip and go for it.”

‘Dior would roll in his grave’

johnny-depp” data-ylk=”slk:Johnny Depp” class=”link “Johnny Depp has reportedly signed a multi-year, seven-figure contract with Dior.

The contract will see Depp pocket a reported US$1m (£868,000) for returning as the face of Sauvage fragrance for men.

To announce the deal, Dior posted a video of Depp on stage in Paris where he performed with Jeff Beck.

The caption of the post read: “Watch @johnnydepp as he takes the stage at @olympiahall in Paris, the legendary concert venue where he saw @vanessa.paradis and introduced his kids to @bobdylan. Like Sauvage, it represents the idea of something fearless yet human. By: @gregwilliamsphotography.”

While Depp had never been dropped by Dior during the defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard, which Depp won, the post is a sign that the brand intends to continue its relationship with the actor.

Fans were quick to comment on Dior’s post, with one person writing: “Love your support for Johnny.”

Another added: “Dior supporting legends,” while a third said: “Dior y’all real for stayin with JD the whole time.”

However, some fans of the brand weren’t so keen on the news, with one person on Twitter writing: “Christian Dior would roll in his grave knowing Johnny Depp is the ambassador for his fragrance. #BoycottDior.”

The video came after Dior posted teaser shots of the campaign showing Depp at the Paris show.

“Backstage at @olympiahall before the last show. Fearless yet human, just like Sauvage,” one set of images was captioned.

The brand included a quote from Depp on another post promoting the fragrance that read: “Sauvage brings me a lot of memories, a lot of shows. Things that you smelled growing up that if I smell it, it takes me right back and I see the person that used to wear it. It’s a

12 Best Crossbody Bags of 2022

a woman at copenhagen fashion week carries a crossbody jacquemus bag for women to illustrate a roundup of the best crossbody bags for women 2022

Darrel Hunter

We shop some bags purely for the aesthetics, like a micro micro mini bag; other bags, in the vein of an IKEA-style market tote, we carry just for utility. The best crossbody bags meet us somewhere in the middle. “A crossbody bag should deliver on beauty, versatility, and functionality,” agrees Karla Gallardo, co-founder and chief executive officer of Cuyana. “When I reach for a crossbody, it’s because I want something light and compact, that will carry me through my day with ease.”

While we always need room for our 24/7 essentials—phone, AirPods, keys, et cetera—practicality isn’t the only factor in a quality crossbody bag. Gallardo adds that slinging on the right crossbody can add a jolt of color or an unexpected shape to an otherwise straightforward outfit. “If your style skews a bit more minimal or neutral, they’re the ultimate accessory to add a bit of playfulness to your wardrobe,” she says. Prefer to stay in the comfort zone of dialed-back shades and classic shapes? Try a clasp-lock leather satchel or logo-embroidered, top-handle bag for vintage-inspired polish. From classic to colorful, shop our 12 favorite crossbody bags ahead.

Back-to-School Beauty: 16 Items You Need In Your Beauty Bag

Back-to-School Beauty: 16 Items You Need In Your Beauty Bag

As the summer days begin to dwindle, it’s time to prepare for the fall days ahead, and that begins with heading back to school. Whether it’s heading to high school or starting your freshman year in college, you have to have your beauty game on lock, and we know just what you need to not only look good but also feel good. 

“This year and every year, natural-looking skin is in,” says celebrity makeup artist and esthetician Brianna Meshack. “Women are wearing less and paying attention to details that matter, like a fierce brow, great skin, and a bold lip. Celebrities that do it well are Rihanna, Marsai Martin, Normani, Lori Harvey.”

Back-to-School Beauty: 16 Items You Need In Your Beauty Bag

Meshack also mentions that your skincare routine should be a big part of your routine instead of applying too much makeup. “A great skincare regimen that includes a balancing cleanser, AHA exfoliants, a pH-balancing toner, and a hydrating moisturizer should do the trick.” 

When it comes to hair looks, beauty expert, Sir Tony, had the deets on what young ladies are looking for when it comes to back-to-school styles. “Young Black women are becoming increasingly aware of just how beautiful their natural curls are,” he shares. “You also have girls that don’t want to deal with their hair daily, so they are moving towards braids, which is also very chic.”

Sir Tony predicts that box braids and twists are what you will see more of on campus as students hustle and bustle back and forth to classes. “It’s important to get a style that’s versatile, so you can wear it different ways.”

He also mentions that hair accessories are a great way to make your hairstyle uniquely you. “Beautifully embroidered clips and bobby pins are being worn to take styles up a notch.”
