Fall is right around the corner, and honestly, I wasn’t thrilled about it at first. Summer in Brooklyn feels unbeatable—so full of life and unforgettable moments. But this year, I’ve started seeing the season differently. Even with the cooler air, gray skies, and rainy days ahead, fall fashion is quickly becoming something I look forward to. Over the past month, I’ve found so much outfit inspiration, and instead of just scrolling through Instagram or Pinterest, I’ve gone straight to the runways for ideas.

A few years ago my hair started thinning – it felt weak, dull, and I noticed a lot more breakage than before. It was honestly one of the hardest things for my confidence, because healthy hair had always been part of how I expressed myself. Instead of giving up, I started experimenting with products that truly repair and nourish from the inside out. I learned that the right shampoo, masks, and treatments can make all the difference. Step by step, my hair got stronger, shinier, and fuller again. Now, I want to share the exact products that helped me (and can help you too!) – so you don’t waste time and money like I did when I was searching for a solution.

By a girl who has way too many Pinterest boards but zero regrets. Let’s be real—every girl (even the ones who “don’t care about weddings”) has secretly imagined walking down the aisle in the perfect dress. And if you’re like me, you’ve probably saved, deleted, and re-saved the same dress in different lighting about ten times. So, after spiraling through bridal TikTok, haute couture runways, and designer lookbooks at 2AM, I’ve created my ultimate wedding dress dream list. These are the gowns that made me gasp, pause, and whisper: “This is the one… or one of them.”

Sometimes I feel bad searching for the best new beauty products. Choosing one can often feel like picking a favorite child: impossible and largely unfair, but I like to think of it as a worthwhile exercise. With 2025 on the horizon, I am reflecting on the beauty products that got me through the the year so far. From nostalgic makeup products that blew up on TikTok and sustainable skin-care innovations that reshaped my routine to buzzy launches, 2024 so far has been a playground for me to rediscover old formulas and fall in love with new ones.

I don't care if it's a trendy vanilla perfume or a classic floral-scented fragrance; if it's an expensive scent at Sephora or a cheap perfume at Target - I will smell it, and if it's good, I will add it to my ever-growing collection of 150+ perfumes. Because of my perfume obsession and extensive collection of scents, I'm a seasoned expert when it comes to narrowing down the absolute best perfumes for women, men, grandmas, little brothers, BFFs, and beyond. Hence this curated list of the best fragrances of all time, including pros and cons for each, reviews, and some notes on why I, personally, love them so damn much.

I’m all for an easy, breezy summer makeup vibe, but I have to admit - Fall 2024’s makeup trends, blending the best of minimalism and maximalism, have me seriously excited. This season is all about contrasts. On one side, the French girl vibe reigns with matte red lips (like Chanel's newest shade) paired with barely-there concealer favorites. On the other, bold accents are taking over: red blush is viral on TikTok, and glitter lipstick is making a comeback. To master Fall 2024’s trends, luxurious, high-pigment products are key. Luckily, brands like Charlotte Tilbury, NARS, and Hourglass have everything you need. After hours of research, I've curated the best luxury beauty picks to own this season’s top looks - check them out below!

That said, I often end up gravitating toward simple, easy-to-wear pieces that make getting dressed in the morning a breeze. After all, I’m not one to pass up a few extra minutes of sleep!

With summer in full swing, TikTok's latest fashion craze has emerged: the “European summer aesthetic.” Drawing inspiration from previous trends like quiet luxury and coastal grandmother, this look focuses on "clean," sophisticated outfits influenced by classic French and Italian styles. Essential items include tailored tops, elegant dresses, coordinated sets, and chic top-handle bags. This carefully selected wardrobe is versatile enough for both day and night, as well as for the hot, humid weather. Picture light, airy fabrics like linen and cotton, intricate details like crochet and embroidery, and timeless "old money" silhouettes (despite their problematic connotations).

The shift in outerwear signals the approaching seasons, and this summer's favored layer is the linen blazer. I've noticed a surge of linen blazers, from both affordable and luxury brands, flooding the new arrivals sections of our beloved websites. For those adhering to a formal dress code in the office, linen blazers are a lifesaver. They allow you to maintain a traditional uniform while incorporating subtle updates and changes. Opting for breathable fabrics ensures you stay cool throughout the day, and you can effortlessly transition the linen blazer from work to after-hours wear, extending its versatility.

Men are hard to shop for, and I am sorry for that. The "any gift is fine" dad whose birthday is coming up, the people-pleasing husband, the tough to read boyfriend who already has everything—these guys are tough to crack, especially if you're looking for something romantic for Valentine's Day. Your guy has no lists, no timeline, and seemingly no earthly desires. But as the world's foremost experts on men, our editorial team here at Esquire will help everyone out with the definitive 23 absolute best gifts for men that'll work for a birthday, anniversary, or a big Valentine's Day surprise.
