My New Favorite Going-Out Dress Costs $35 at Old Navy

When you think of Old Navy, chances are you don't associate the brand with going-out clothes (aka something you'd wear to dinner with friends or maybe a bar if that's the vibe). It's more likely that you think of high-quality denim or must-have basics. But hear me out: recently, the brand has stepped up its range of curve-hugging silhouettes worthy of a special outing. Take the Old Navy Fitted Sleeveless Halter Rib-Knit Midi Dress ($30, originally $35), for example, which I'm convinced everyone needs in their summer wardrobe.

For starters, it comes in four colors: black, off-white, red-orange, and navy blue. I opted for the latter in size medium and hoped it would fit as beautifully as the brand's top-rated Fitted Rib-Knit Midi Cami Dress ($30, originally $35), which I fell in love with last month. The main difference between the two? I'd say that the halter style is a little bit sexier due to its V-neck and open back. For that reason, I think I'll wear the halter version exclusively with stylish sandals or heels and wear the cami dress more casually with sneakers or slides.

Beyond how perfectly *both* of these midi dresses fit, the comfortable stretch is perhaps the most enticing aspect of all. By no means does the rib-knit cotton feel like it's suctioned tight to your body, and it's lightweight, too. Plus, those side slits help you stay cool when temperatures soar. My favorite part of all about this dress is that it has a built-in shelf bra for days when you don't feel like wearing a "real" bra. While I can't promise it offers enough support for everyone, it's a personal game changer.

I know what you're thinking: is it really so comfortable after a long night out? Well, after wearing it out to dinner and drinks, I didn't feel like I had to take it off the second I stepped foot in the door (my shoes, however, were another story). I'm calling it now: you'll love slipping into this dress on special summer evenings for the way it looks and feels. And you may even want it in a second color - I know I do.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
