[Update location]( or [View forecast]( EDITORâS NOTE Happy Sunday and âSpring Forwardâ day to all who celebrate. I, for one, canât wait for longer days and outdoor dinners. Though, I may skip ordering a spicy marg considering [jalapeños are apparently becoming less spicy](. Something that still brings the heat? Going pantless like Sydney Sweeney, who wore [$6K underwear to a fashion show](. Meanwhile, on the more clothed side of the internet, Lindsay Lohan is out here giving us serious nostalgia, [recreating âParent Trapâ scenes](. Hereâs hoping sheâll make an appearance at the Oscars tonight, if only to find out whatâs in the nearly [$180,000 goodie bags](. Give Annie/Hallie all the swag. â Alex Carr / Editorial Director / New York, NY [Deeply important information] ð· Looks like Kate Middleton is taking things into her own hands. Amid intense âWhere's Kateâ conversations, the Princess of Wales posted a photo taken by her husband, along with [a message on X](. ðï¸ Emily Marikoâs $120 tote bags walked so [$2.99 Trader Joeâs mini totes could run](. Check out the bags [inspiring Stanley-Quencher level hoarding](. 𥦠In this weekâs edition of WTF did I just watch: TikTokers are apparently using [broccoli florets]( to apply their makeup. Helpful hack or the thing thatâll make me quit the internet? ð½ From pop-up restaurants to four-course meals, [college dining hall food is now bougie](. But donât worry, students are staying humble by drinking cheap beer. ð´ Some people will do anything for a good nightâs sleep â including paying almost $2,000 a night to rest in a [high-tech cocoon](. [I can't look away.] Who would willingly choose to have their bathtub, toilet, and bed in one room? Bradley Cooper, thatâs who. During [a recent episode]( of Dax Shepard and Monica Padmanâs âArmchair Expertâ podcast, the actor opened up about the early days of fatherhood (a round of applause for saying [the quiet part out loud](), graced us with already much-discussed [pooping TMI](â¦and revealed that he sleeps in an [open-plan bedroom and bathroom](. Which is just a hard thing to get past. To give Cooper the benefit of the doubt, maybe the house came that way? Or, he hasnât gotten around to renovating? He didnât specify [which home]( he was talking about, but assuming itâs the one he reportedly owns in the West Village (his ex previously confirmed thatâs where their daughter lives; you can see some of the layout [here](), heâs had it for over five years â and the bathroom originally had pocket doors. Meaning, he chose to have âno doors.â Whatsoever. The obvious question here is: Why??? Sure, this is a known layout for some hotel rooms â which, to be clear, needs to end, no matter [how fancy]( the setup. But maybe those of us in [the âabsolutely notâ camp]( have it all wrong. One design magazine calls the combined bed/bath a â[growing luxury trend](.â While an expert claims, âThe coziness of the bedroom makes it a place of relaxation and comfort, so placing a bath there only further enhances this.â Perhaps we should just be grateful itâs not a â[kitchen shower](.â [Need something nostalgic to watch. ] [According to the experts](: âBeing rich, hot, and toxic never goes out of styleââ¦at least, in pop culture. And no movie has never made that more clear than âCruel Intentions,â which came out 25 years ago this week. Instead of feeling old as f*ck, might we suggest putting âBitter Sweet Symphonyâ on your Spotify playlist and making time for a rewatch? Not only is it the movie that launched Reese Witherspoonâs career, itâs worth the [$1.99 rental]( for the [â90s fashion alone](. [What are the earplugs we like again? ] [Loop Switch Earplugs]( Ever tried to plow through a big work project while (a) your neighbor blasts their breakup playlist, (b) your kids dump every toy bin possible on the ground, (c) your partner interrupts every five minutes, or (d) all of the above? The solution is these ear plugs, which essentially give you a cute volume control on the world. They come with four sizes of silicone tips, meaning theyâll actually stay in place, while a little switch lets you toggle between three different noise-reduction levels. Finally, a way to put it all on mute. [Help, Iâm so oldâ¦] Wondering why people are suddenly [dressing like grandpas](? Well, you can thank another TikTok micro trend. If 2023 brought us âcoastal grandmotherâ and â[Kendall Roy-core](,â 2024 is all about dressing like an [eclectic grandpa](, a term first coined by Pinterest. Think: oversized cardigans, big loafers, and calf socks. As for whether to break out the orthopedic shoes, well, thatâs up to you. [Magnifying glass emoji] You probably saw the Red Bull Racing scandal continue to make headlines this week (if not, [catch up here](). But there was [another Formula 1 controversy]( you mightâve missed: Earlier this month, Road & Track magazine published a provocative 5,000-word article titled âBehind F1âs Velvet Curtain.â Based on reporting she did at the US Grand Prix in October, the writer, Kate Wagner, chronicles the sportâs ultra-wealthy crowd (âthe kind of money I saw will haunt me foreverâ) as well as the power dynamics between F1, its sponsors, and the press. But if you look up the story on Road & Track, you wonât find it; it was â[mysteriously removed](â just after being publishedâ¦without any explanation. Thereâs lots of speculation about the reason(s) behind the retraction (the magazineâs editor in chief apparently felt âit didnât fit with the siteâs editorial goalsâ), but yesterday, after â[a few days of negotiation](,â the piece was [republished on the Escape Collective](. Itâs worth the read. [No notes]( [skimm picks] Trending products and brands our shopping team has been loving recently. 1. The best gift for your gym boyfriend. See also: The boyfriend who swears by [packing cubes](.
