What We’re Wearing
Breezy Weekend Style
You’ve probably already noticed the vibe shift. Guys are embracing a more relaxed and revealing look for warmer weather. Each summer for the past few years, the styles have gotten—in a word—skimpier. And we're all for it. Why should the ladies have all the fun, letting their skin absorb all that glorious sunshine? It started with shorts. They simply got shorter and wider, allowing full thigh freedom.
Then everyone's favorite camp collar shirts started loosening up as well. They went from lightweight sweater knits to slinky crocheted styles and now they're stitched with proper holes embroidered all over them. What's more, they're cut in a boxy cropped style allowing your stomach to show now and then, depending on your movement. Since your shirt is shorter, pull on a nice belt to accent your look and, of course, don't forget the sunscreen. You've got a lot more skin showing these days.

$155 byMaking the Case for …A Sculptural Table Lamp |
Standing tall at around 16 inches high, this rounded lamp gives off a warm glow, but its contribution to a room is not to merely illuminate. West Elm’s Juno lamp is one part sculpture and one part lamp. It can sit on the floor or stand on a desk or side table or nightstand. It can be tucked into a bookcase and even find a place on a kitchen counter. It doesn’t exactly look like a lamp, and that’s a good thing. It almost reads like a vase, but then it lights up, like a modern version of a Japanese paper lantern. The carved wooden base gives it another layer of intrigue and warmth. This is the kind of lamp you put in places where you wouldn’t normally find a lamp. And that’s what makes it so impactful. But it also does a great job of brightening up spots, which is why it’s so useful. If your place could use an extra pocket of light (and most could), consider grabbing one or two of these, especially now that they’re sale. June LED lamp, |
