Mirrorball champs or not, Dancing With the Stars has featured some impeccable professional dancers in the years since the ABC competition series premiered in 2005. Derek Hough, Cheryl Burke and Maksim Chmerkovskiy are among the talent who have lit up the ballroom.

Both Derek and his sister Julianne Hough, however, are perhaps two of the biggest names to come out of the show. After winning six mirrorball trophies, Derek became a DWTS judge in 2020. He also married DWTS troupe dancer Hayley Erbert in 2023, and two years later, the pair welcomed their first baby — adding to the DWTS cast legacy.

Julianne, meanwhile, was named cohost of the reality show in 2023 after being a pro from season 4 through season 8 and sitting at the judge’s table from seasons 19 through 24 (with the exception of season 22.)

2025 gave us a queer sports romance that had everyone swooning over a suave Russian hockey player who knew exactly when to drop a flirty comment to leave everyone flustered. Heated Rivalry shot Connor Storrie into stardom and showcased his potential for versatility, as he not only mastered Ilya’s teasing and tough side but also the raw vulnerability that simmered beneath. However, it is his latest guest star role in Criminal Minds: Evolution that cements the actor’s range, as he steps into the BAU without a Russian accent and a dangerous glint in his eyes. Season 4, Episode 4 brings Storrie into the fold as a stalker ex-boyfriend named Lance, who plays an integral part of the season’s larger storyline about the elusive Fan, and his scenes are chillingly and humorously memorable.

Connor Storrie Plays a Deceptively Major Role in ‘Criminal Minds: Evolution’ Season 4

In Episode 4, the Fan is firmly on the BAU’s radar, and he sends a series of photographs to the bureau, leading them down a rabbit hole to Lance, the ex-boyfriend of the woman in the pictures. At first, it seems like Lance is the Fan, as he possesses the same obsessive qualities that lead him to stalk his ex-girlfriend, and he is intelligent enough to maneuver around J.J.’s (A.J. Cook) questions without giving too much away. But upon Lewis’ (Aisha Tyler) test with a leaky pen, they realize that Lance doesn’t have the same level of obsessive compulsion as the Fan, as the real unsub would have lost their head if their writing was anything less than perfect.

In this way, Storrie’s performance becomes an integral aspect of the episode and this major storyline. He teeters on the line of ambiguity, delivering us enough sharpness that the team can organically suspect he may be the unsub, but also has enough emotional volatility bubbling beneath the surface to make us doubt the theory. It is the first time we’ve seen the Fan make a substantial play against the BAU, using Lance as a Trojan horse to access the team’s bag of tricks, thereby making Storrie’s brief role in the series a major turning point. It is the first time we’ve seen the team this rattled in a long time, as the Fan defies being pigeonholed into a copycat profile by taunting Voit (Zach Gilford) and the inclusion of Lance.

Connor Storries Showcases His Range in ‘Criminal Minds: Evolution’

It’s also exciting to witness another side to the actor’s range, where there is a borderline homicidal glint in his eyes, and a deadpan face as Lance truly believes he is doing nothing wrong by stalking his ex-girlfriend. However, Storrie’s strongest scene arrives when Lance is facing off against Alvez (Adam Rodriguez), where the agent threatens and manipulates Lance into putting an end to his extracurricular activities. Alvez does so through a mix of his intimidating persona and by using Lance’s abandonment issues against him. Here, Storrie switches from furious and offended to a subdued vulnerability that is haunting to watch. It is almost reminiscent of the latter episodes of Heated Rivalry, where Storrie delivered some raw performances, but in Criminal Minds, it feels more like Lance is a rabid animal that just got broken in by Alvez.

We may have fallen in love with Storrie’s Ilya in the rink, but Criminal Minds delivers us another version of the actor that indicates his stardom will not end there. While playing a pivotal role in the season, Storrie flexes his range through an emotionally volatile performance, but he also demonstrates his capability to switch his emotions in a split second when he shares the screen with Rodriguez. He not only makes an impact on Criminal Minds, but also shows promise for his future career.

Country music star Zac Brown defended his decision to perform at the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House.

“Man, I’m there for the troops, man. I’m there to honor America,” Brown, 47, insisted on the Wednesday, June 10, edition of The Pat McAfee Show. “This is patriotism, not politics for me.”

The “Thank You for Loving Her” singer is slated to perform the national anthem for the first time at a UFC event since September 2001.

The seven-match card will be held in a specially-constructed fight arena on the South Lawn of the White House on June 14 as part of President Donald Trump and his administration’s 250th anniversary celebrations for the U.S.

Months before the Rock the Country festival crosses the United States, three of its named performers have all dropped out. The annual festival, consisting of an eight-city tour featuring sets from popular music artists, initially featured Ludacris, Morgan Wade and Carter Faith among the star-studded lineup. The trio of artists have since quietly canceled their […]

Trump, 79, is expected to attend UFC Freedom 250, which will be headlined by a lightweight championship bout between Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje.

UFC Freedom 250 has been tremendously controversial, with Trump’s opponents criticizing the appropriateness of staging an MMA fight at the White House.

For his part, Brown — who is also expected to headline a fan fest during Freedom 250 weekend — insisted that his sole focus is honoring the “8,000 active service members” expected to attend.

“I mean, f*** all the division. I don’t believe in that,” Brown told host Pat McAfee. “I love this country. I love all the people that have sacrificed so that I can live my American dream and that everyone that lives here gets a chance to do that if they work hard and make the right decisions. So it doesn’t have a place in politics for me.”

Brown said that he’s excited for the event on a personal level too as he’s a “massive UFC fan” who has watched “every single UFC [event] probably multiple times.”

“It’s my favorite sport,” he added. “I’m honored that [UFC CEO Dana White] is giving me the chance to do this … Getting to do the anthem for this, with the Marine Band, is going to be sick. We’ve been working up some arrangements with them. It’s an honor, man.”

The musician concluded, “I’m so excited for this weekend. And it’s history, man, getting to be part of American history, man. Having the first sporting event that’s on the lawn of the White House. I mean, it’s an honor.”

Ahead of the event, Trump has hinted that an MMA arena on the South Lawn of the White House could become a permanent fixture.

“Many don’t know that in Paris, France, the Eiffel Tower — 1889 it was built — was supposed to be taken down immediately after the World’s Fair,” Trump said in a TikTok video on June 2. “And then they said, ‘You know, we sort of like it, let’s leave it up a little bit longer.’”

He then teased, “We’re building something in front of the White House that’s quite attractive to a lot of people. It’s going to have a big UFC fight on June 14, and I’m looking at it, and maybe we’ll never ever take it down.”

The UFC event is one element of the Trump administration’s plans to celebrate the country’s 250th birthday. A series of concerts were due to be held under the “Freedom 250” banner before headliners Martina McBride, Bret Michaels and more all backed out over questions about whether the shows were truly nonpartisan.

Trump later suggested cancelling the concerts outright, instead scheduling a MAGA rally in Washington, D.C on June 24, featuring music from Lee Greenwood and Christopher Macchio.

They don’t make movies like they used to. The complete lack of romantic comedies in movie theaters is proof that the genre has fallen from the heights it reached in the late 90’s and 2000’s. That didn’t stop George Clooney and Julia Roberts, two of the most popular stars in history, from doing their damndest to bring it back by sheer force of will. 2022’s Ticket to Paradise did the impossible by earning over $150 million at the box office, and now it’s available on Netflix for everyone who misses a lost era of cinema. 

An Excuse For Clooney And Roberts To Go On Vacation

Clooney and Roberts play David and Georgia, a divorced couple, forced back into each other’s lives when their daughter Lily (The Last of Us star Kaitlyn Dever) has a whirlwind romance in Bali with Gede (French model Maxime Bouttier), resulting in a sudden destination wedding. David and Georgia both agree that this marriage is a mistake and work to sabotage it while pretending to be supportive of their daughter. If you think you know every single plot beat from that two-sentence description, congratulations, you’ve seen a romantic comedy before, because you’re right. 

Ticket to Paradise throws a few complications at the family, including Georgia’s pilot boyfriend, Paul (Emily in Paris star Lucas Bravo), deciding he should come along for the ride, and Lily’s best friend, Wren (Billy Lourd) is sticking around for the wedding. The plot is a loose excuse to show the gorgeous Bali countryside, even if it’s actually Hamilton Island, Australia, and to give Clooney and Roberts an excuse to work together on-screen again. 

This is the type of film where the reviews don’t matter. Ticket to Paradise isn’t a great film. This is the cinematic equivalent of popping bubble wrap: a brief moment of fun where all the terrors and responsibility of the world melt away, combined with the nostalgia of being young again. You don’t need a review score to tell you how, in 2026, you’ll feel about a George Clooney and Julia Roberts romantic comedy. You already know. 

Ticket To Paradise Is The Best Rom-Com Of The Decade

Ticket to Paradise was never intended to be a box office success, though it was, easily clearing its budget of $60 million. The movie was destined to be a streaming hit. As part of Universal’s new partnership with Netflix, the film has left Peacock behind to find a new audience on a streaming platform people actually use. Since debuting on Netflix, it’s been in the top five, proving that George Clooney and Julia Roberts can still bring in an audience like no one else. 

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell tried to bring back the rom-com a year later with Anyone But You, and again, it was a hit, bringing in over $220 million in theaters. If established Hollywood megastars and the young, up-and-coming stars of tomorrow can both find success with romantic comedies, why aren’t more coming to theaters? Where’s the constant stream of light-hearted, low-stakes storytelling that defined so much of the 90s and 2000s? 

Instead of kicking off a rom-com revival, Ticket to Paradise is an anomaly. It’s a film with no villain, the lowest stakes imaginable, and coasts entirely on the raw chemistry of its two leads. It’s also one of the best rom-coms of the decade and the perfect watch when you’re with and need something that everyone will love or at least, tolerate.

Ticket to Paradise is now on Netflix.

For the most part, the last six years have been a great time for cinema. From genre-defining masterpieces like Dune: Part Two to Oscar-winning indie darlings like Everything Everywhere All At Once, the 2020s as a whole have offered some exceptional cinematic achievements. From 2021 until the present, however, there have also been some truly awful movies; shameful disasters that give the art form a bad name and prove that not just anyone deserves to be given the budget to make a motion picture. There are many reasons why a film could be awful, from clunky artistic direction to a poorly-written script, and the worst of the worst of the last six years checks all of those boxes and many more.

Some awful movies are even worse than others, however. As such, every year of the last six years has had an awful film that stands out above all the others as the bottom of the barrel of that year. From so-bad-they’re-good cult classics like War of the Worlds to embarrassing streaming originals like Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate, these films show just how unexciting, unappealing, unfunny, and uninteresting movies can be when done without any true semblance of passion or artistic competence.

2021: ‘2025: The World Enslaved by a Virus’

Image via Wesely Bros

Not many people have watched the English-language German film 2025: The World Enslaved by a Virus. Good. It really should stay that way. There are plenty of Christian films that are legitimately strong movies made by a team of creatives who clearly knew what they were doing, but this? It’s far and away one of the worst movies of the last 25 years, a beyond-incompetent disaster made by people who probably had never seen a single movie before in their lives. It’s a Christian persecution fantasy with zero artistic value, barely any semblance of a plot, and politics so confused that they’re almost dizzying.

All of this could perhaps be forgiven if 2025: The World Enslaved by a Virus were at least funny, but this is one of those instances of a movie being so bad that there isn’t even any ironic humor to find in it at all. Stupidly written, visually appalling, and complete with some of the worst acting that cinema has seen at any point during the 21st century, it’s entirely incompetent dystopian fiction that has nothing to offer beyond conspiracy theories that can be taken down with so much as a puff of wind.

2022: ‘Morbius’

Image via Sony Pictures Releasing

Morbius is one of the saddest instances of a box office disappointment of the 2020s as a whole. Released by Sony in April, the film was a financial whimper that nevertheless became the target of countless memes mocking it on social media. Sony took this as a sign that they had a so-bad-it’s-good classic on their hands and decided to re-release the film in theaters in June, only for it to bomb a second time. This failure was entirely deserved, too: This complete mockery of the cinematic medium doesn’t even have the decency to be terrible enough to become a cult classic.

Instead, Morbius‘ biggest sin is that it’s boring. Complete with terrible performances, ugly visuals, one of the worst post-credits scenes of any movie, and a poorly-plotted story that’s nothing short of nonsensical, it’s everything that a comic book film should aim not to be in this post-Infinity Saga era of the genre. There’s no life, no heart, and no humor in this irredeemable slog, only CGI noise that doesn’t lead anywhere interesting or even remotely entertaining.

2023: ‘Spy Kids: Armageddon’

Image via Netflix

Though some may call it divisive, Robert Rodriguez‘ Spy Kids franchise at least offered three iconic installments that many cinephiles hold as fond cinematic memories of their childhood. The franchise was never the same again, reaching its most abysmal point to date with the fifth main installment in the series, Spy Kids: Armageddon. Though a little more than half of critics on Rotten Tomatoes liked it well enough, earning it a 55% score on the Tomatometer, its 4.3/10 rating on IMDb and 1.7/5 rating on Letterboxd make it one of the lowest-rated movies of the decade on both platforms.

It’s no wonder this family spy romp was as much of a flop with general audiences as it was. The smallest members of the family are bount to find at least a few redeeming qualities to have some fun with it, but anyone over the age of 10 is going to inevitably have a difficult time with this trite, poorly-written cheesefest. Bad performances, terrible visuals, poorly-shot action, and no semblance of a sense of excitement whatsoever all make this the worst possible thing to play on the family TV on a Saturday night.

2024: ‘Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate’

Back when it originally came out in 2010, Megamind didn’t receive much fanfare, even though it performed well financially. It was in the years following its release that it slowly started to grow more and more of a cult following, becoming one of the most beloved standalone DreamWorks movies ever. With this gradual cult resurgence, Peacock saw dollar signs. As a pilot to their series Megamind Rules!, the streaming platform ordered DreamWorks Animation Television to produce Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate, which is now the lowest-rated film of the decade thus far on Letterboxd.

By no means is this level of hate an exaggeration, but rather a fully-deserved reception for what’s essentially a visually atrocious, poorly written, shoddily directed cashgrab. Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate is both an insult to fans of the original (who had been begging for a proper sequel for years) and an affront to the animated medium itself, a complete misfire without a single aspect worthy of even the slightest of praise. The animation? Awful. The humor? Awful. The voice acting? Awful. The story? Awful. There’s virtually nothing here for anyone who enjoys movies that actually have something of value to offer.

2025: ‘War of the Worlds’

Typically, it takes some time for a terrible movie to start garnering a cult following with an ironic appreciation of it, eventually cementing itself as a so-bad-it’s-good disasterpiece. Such wasn’t the case with War of the Worlds. From the very moment it came out, this screenlife contemporary adaptation of H. G. Wells‘ 1898 literary sci-fi classic (if one can even call it an adaptation) immediately grew a reputation as one of the most hilariously awful movies of the decade.

Not only does War of the Worlds live up to the hype: It’s even worse than anyone who hasn’t actually seen it could possibly imagine, the sort of cinematic catastrophe that must be seen to be believed. It’s easily one of the worst movies of the last 40 years, with some of the most shameless production placement, awful acting, and dull writing that the modern cinematic landscape has ever seen. When done right, screenlife thrillers can be irresistibly entertaining, but there was virtually nothing in War of the Worlds that was actually done right.

2026: ‘Mercy’

So far, 2026 has been a relatively good year for thrillers, but by no means does that imply that there haven’t been some duds. Case in point: Mercy, which came out at what’s probably the worst-ever time to release a sci-fi thriller that’s overtly and shamelessly in favor of Artificial Intelligence. Placing Chris Pratt and Rebecca Ferguson in a position where they have zero chance to deliver anything of value or leverage any of their skill, it’s a film that (somewhat admirably) manages to mix bad politics, horrible aesthetics, and poor writing in equal measure.

There’s nothing original here, nothing fresh or exciting, nothing that delivers any kind of impact that will last beyond the credits. Mercy is more of a cheap knock-off of the infinitely better sci-fi thriller that was Minority Report, without any of the creativity, stakes, or heart. It’s emotionally shallow, narratively nonsensical, and way too ambitious for its own good. This year has offered some pretty awful movies, but so far, none have sunk as low as Mercy.

Great mystery TV shows keep viewers guessing with each episode. Sometimes, this can look like the slow answering of overarching questions in a twisty mystery box series. Other times, these series present viewers with a new mystery each episode. From suspenseful thrillers to cozy dramedies, the best mystery series keep viewers entertained by the plot while getting them attached to the characters and their journeys.

It’s easy for mystery shows to start off with a solid premise, then lose their momentum later on – particularly when it comes time to answer the series’ biggest questions. Only a select handful of mystery series are truly fantastic all the way through. These series start off with a unique premise, engage viewers with compelling mysteries, and stick the landing with their reveals. These are mystery shows that are simply amazing from start to finish.

‘Mare of Easttown’ (2021)

Image via HBO

Mare of Easttown is a thriller miniseries that follows Mare Sheehan (Kate Winslet), a detective sergeant in the small town of Easttown, PA. The combination of a personal tragedy and an unsolved missing person’s case have left Mare struggling to prove herself again in her job. When a local teenage girl named Erin McMenamin (Cailee Spaeny) is found murdered, Mare takes the case on with determination, accompanied by her new partner, Colin Zabel (Evan Peters).

Mare of Easttown is intense, heartbreaking, and very clever in its storytelling. While the story centers around the question of who murdered Erin, the mystery is primarily used to expose a horrifying undercurrent of gendered violence in Easttown. The series is a powerful and emotional watch that manages to surprise with its ultimate killer reveal, in a way that both feels earned, and that touches on a bigger message.

‘Only Murders in the Building’ (2021–Present)

Image via Hulu

Only Murders in the Building hasn’t yet reached its conclusion, but in its five seasons so far, the series has been excellent throughout. The cozy murder mystery follows three lonely people who all live in the same iconic New York City building called the Arconia: Charles-Haden Savage (Steven Martin), Oliver Putnam (Martin Short), and Mabel Mora (Selena Gomez). Charles, Oliver, and Mabel are all obsessed with the same true-crime podcast, and they come together after an Arconia resident named Tim Kono (Julian Cihi) is murdered.

Because the police believe that Tim’s death was a suicide, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel decide to take the investigation into their own hands. They start their own podcast, and against all odds, they find themselves making progress on the investigation and gaining success along the way. Only Murders in the Building has a compelling murder mystery each season, but it’s also very funny and cozy, perfectly blending its comedic and dramatic elements.

‘How to Get Away with Murder’ (2014–2020)

Image via ABC

How to Get Away With Murder is a twisty thriller series that follows a brilliant and tough criminal defense lawyer named Annalise Keating (Viola Davis). Annalise teaches at a prestigious Philadelphia law school, and she also runs her own firm, where she picks a group of first-year students to intern each semester. At the start of the series, Annalise chooses five of her students to intern for her, right at the same time that the body of a female student is found.

Throughout the first season of How to Get Away With Murder, the main timeline is interspersed with flash-forwards to the murder of Annalise’s husband, Sam (Tom Verica). For a long time, little to nothing is revealed about Sam’s murder, except for scenes that show Annalise’s interns trying to bury the body and cover it up. Each season of How to Get Away with Murder has a central murder mystery that builds up to a reveal halfway through, and the payoff is always shocking.

‘Pushing Daisies’ (2007–2009)

Pushing Daisies is another cozy murder mystery series that’s a true delight from start to finish. The series takes place in a whimsical, fairytale-esque version of our world, where a pie maker named Ned (Lee Pace) is keeping a massive secret. Ned has the power to bring the dead back to life with a single touch, although there are a few rules that come with it. Along with running a pie shop, Ned assists Private Investigator Emerson Cod (Chi McBride) in solving murder cases – by temporarily waking the victims and asking them who killed them.

Each episode of Pushing Daisies centers on a hilariously absurd and over-the-top murder, with cases that see people being drowned in a vat of taffy and killed by an explosive pop-up book. At the center of the series, though, is the love story between Ned and his childhood sweetheart, Chuck (Anna Friel). Ned and Chuck lost touch as children, but they reconnect after her death, when he brings her back to life and risks everything to keep her around.

‘Severance’ (2022–Present)

Image via Apple TV

Severance is a clever and suspenseful mystery box series that takes place in the dystopian near-future, where nearly everything is controlled by a company called Lumon Industries. Grieving widower Mark Scout (Adam Scott) previously underwent the “severance” procedure, separating his brain into a work self and an outside self. While Mark has no idea what he does for work, his “innie” has never known a life outside of it.

With just two seasons so far, Severance has already paid off so many of its central mysteries in brilliant and horrifying ways, all while making room for future storylines. The corruption of Lumon Industries goes deep, and the depths of the company’s plans are slowly revealed over the course of the series. Severance blends complex science fiction with intense thriller elements for a suspenseful and mind-bending viewing experience, and it doesn’t have a single bad episode.

‘Midnight Mass’ (2021)

Image via Netflix

Midnight Mass is a horror mystery series that follows Riley Flynn (Zach Gilford), a man who returns to Crockett Island, the tiny island where he grew up, after spending four years in prison for killing someone by driving drunk. Riley just wants to keep his head down, focus on his sobriety, and maybe reconnect with his first love, Erin Greene (Kate Siegel). At the same time, though, a mysterious new priest named Father Paul (Hamish Linklater) comes to Crockett Island and starts performing impossible miracles.

The mystery of Father Paul lingers over Midnight Mass, all building up to a shocking and disturbing reveal. Midnight Mass is full of terrifying and mind-blowing twists and turns, but it is also a beautiful and introspective series that tackles a number of powerful themes. Midnight Mass is deeply emotional, scary, and brilliant, and it doesn’t waste a single second of its viewers’ time.

‘The Leftovers’ (2014–2017)

Image via HBO

The Leftovers makes the most of its three short seasons, telling a complete story that all builds up to one of the most beautiful series finales of all time. Each season of the post-apocalyptic drama series feels completely different, taking its characters on a complex journey in the years following a mysterious event that led 2% of the world’s population to suddenly disappear without a trace. The Leftovers is full of mysteries related to what they all call the Sudden Departure, but it’s also a series that isn’t afraid to leave some questions unanswered.

At the start of The Leftovers, Police Chief Kevin Garvey (Justin Theroux) struggles to keep the peace in his small town of Mapleton, New York, on the three-year anniversary of the Departure. His biggest concern is The Guilty Remnant, a cult whose sole goal is to keep people from ever moving on from the Departure. Each season dives deeper into the potential speculative elements at play, forcing both Kevin and viewers to consider something bigger at play, all while hovering on the brink between reality and the impossible.

Katie Holmes has a talent for making simple wardrobe staples look far more expensive than they actually are. The actress consistently gravitates toward elevated basics that strike the perfect balance between comfortable and polished, and her latest outfit featured a chic knit top we’d happily wear all summer long.

On June 5, the actress stepped out in New York City wearing a cream short-sleeve knit top tucked into black-wash jeans, accessorizing with a croc-embossed belt, a structured white bucket bag and sleek black pumps. The outfit felt equal parts effortless and sophisticated, but it was the elevated knit top that immediately caught our eye.

Get the Anrabess Short Sleeve Sweater Top for just $23 (Was $27) at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate at the date of publication, June 11, 2026, but are subject to change.

Want to recreate the vibe without the celebrity price tag? We found the Anrabess Short Sleeve Sweater Top on Amazon for just $23, and it delivers a remarkably similar look. With its soft knit fabrication, classic crew neckline and easy silhouette, it’s the kind of piece that works with everything already hanging in your closet.

Shailene Woodley just made a strong case for swapping skinny jeans for a looser silhouette this summer. While many shoppers assume baggy white denim adds bulk, the actress proved the opposite: when styled correctly, relaxed white jeans can actually create a longer, leaner-looking frame. On June 3 in New York City, Woodley stepped out wearing […]

Like Holmes’ version, the top feels elevated without trying too hard. The sweater-knit texture gives it a dressier feel than a basic T-shirt, while the short sleeves make it practical for warm-weather wear. The cream colorway captures the same rich-looking aesthetic, but it’s also available in pink, khaki and several other shades. Sizes range from XS to XXL.

Versatility is another reason we’re eyeing this find. Wear it tucked into dark jeans and loafers for a Katie-inspired weekend look, pair it with tailored trousers for the office or style it with a flowy midi skirt for summer dinners. It’s one of those rare basics that can easily shift between casual and dressier occasions.

Shoppers have been equally impressed. The top has earned hundreds of five-star ratings, with one reviewer calling it “easy to style” and saying it “looks great on its own or layered under a blazer or cardigan.” Another wrote that the quality “looks and feels” like a “high-end, expensive piece.”

If you’re looking for a versatile summer staple that channels Holmes’ effortless style, this $23 knit top is an easy place to start. It’s a simple way to bring her elevated jeans-and-knit formula into your own wardrobe.
