Alas, Sephora’s sunscreen kit is sold out — but I actually think this one from Dermstore is better.

First, this one has almost every reader favorite sunscreen that you can legally buy in America — Elta MD, Supergoop, and Roche Posay — as well as a sunscreen spray, mineral sunscreen, and while I don’t know much about the Paula’s Choice one, I trust the brand and like that they describe it as “brightens, moisturizes, and leaves a radiant, soft glow.”

I also like that there are a variety of sizes here — some super mini “deluxe samples” to throw into your bag, as well as some bigger sizes, and many TSA-approved sizes.

The kit is a $208 value for $75 (at least for now, full price is $100).

Psst: have you heard that some Korean and Japanese brands are reformulating their sunscreens to be sold in the US? Here’s a link to Fifty Shades of Snail discussing it on her FB page.

Broadway’s biggest night brought out some of the most memorable fashion moments of the year. The 79th Annual Tony Awards, held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, delivered red carpet looks that ranged from dramatic couture to sharp tailoring. Fashion Bomb Daily was on the scene to break down the best dressed.

Jeremy Pope set the tone early, arriving in a Robert Wun Spring 2026 Couture black and white ombre pleated gown with a structured blazer, dramatic cape sleeves, and a wide-brim hat. The Broadway star made an undeniable statement, cementing his place as one of the evening’s most talked-about style moments.

Danielle Brooks kept it glamorous in a Wiederhoeft SS26 RTW silver crystal embellished off-shoulder fitted gown, styled by stylist D. Hawk. The look was equal parts Old Hollywood and modern luxury.

Queen Latifah commanded the carpet in a Naeem Khan Fall 2017 black iridescent feather cape with sheer beaded collar detail — a throwback piece that still felt entirely of the moment.

Ayesha Curry turned heads in a Monse Resort 2027 red halter fringe ombre maxi gown, styled by Jason Bolden. The look was bold, graphic, and perfectly tailored to the drama of the evening.

Sarah Paulson arrived alongside Ella Beatty, stepping out in Erdem Fall/Winter 2026 RTW, styled by Karla Welch. Paulson’s look was refined and quietly powerful — a masterclass in understated elegance. Beatty complemented her in Tom Ford for Gucci.

On the men’s side, Leslie Odom Jr. brought downtown cool to the red carpet in a Public School FW26 Men’s red satin bomber jacket paired with black trousers and a tie, styled by Avo Yermagyan. Law Roach kept it sleek and sophisticated in a Louis Vuitton black satin-lapel double-breasted tuxedo blazer, finished with a floral brooch.

Law Roach, who co-produced CATS: The Jellicle Ball, kept it sleek and sophisticated in a Louis Vuitton black satin-lapel double-breasted tuxedo blazer, finished with a floral brooch and worn open with a relaxed confidence that only he could pull off.

Usher and Jenn Goicoechea arrived as a true fashion couple — Usher in a Tom Ford brown leather blazer with black shirt and trousers, while Goicoechea wore a Fjolla Haxhismajli nude and black geometric sequin plunge neck fitted gown. Both were styled by Jeremy Haynes.

From couture to contemporary, the 2026 Tony Awards proved that Broadway’s fashion game is second to none.

I was looking at a few of our older career advice articles, and it got me thinking about something I don’t think we’ve discussed before: what took you TOO LONG to learn about work? Was it something about office politics, promotions, networking, compensation, leadership, boundaries, burnout, job-hopping, professional friendships, or something else entirely?

When I look back on my own career, there are a number of things that seem obvious in retrospect but took me years to figure out. Some were lessons I had technically heard before but didn’t really understand until I experienced them firsthand. Others were things nobody told me at all.

For example:

• Doing excellent work is important, but it doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be recognized or promoted.
• Your job is not your career, and your career is not your life.
• Inspiring confidence in your work is often just as important as doing good work.
• Making your boss look good matters — but so does making sure you get credit for your own work.
• Professional relationships are often built in the spaces between the work, and people generally prefer to work with people they know, like, and trust.
• Sometimes the fastest way to get a raise is to change jobs.
• If you want to advance into leadership, learn how the business actually makes money.
• A good manager can dramatically affect your day-to-day happiness.
• A bad manager can dramatically affect your day-to-day happiness, too — don’t stay under one longer than you have to.

Readers, I’m curious — what took you too long to learn about work? Was it something about office politics, promotions, networking, compensation, leadership, boundaries, burnout, job-hopping, professional friendships, or something else entirely?

And when did you finally learn it — the hard way or the easy way?

Danielle Bernstein x DIFF Eyewear – four NYC-inspired silhouettes designed to live on your face, in every bag, on repeat.

DIFF does polarized lenses better than brands charging three times the price, that’s not a hot take, that’s just a fact. Danielle wore them for months before the collab was even official. The collection is the result of wearing something until you know exactly what you’d change, and then actually changing it.

Four frames. All NYC. All designed to become part of the uniform – the rotation you reach for without thinking, the pair you keep a backup of, the ones your friends are going to ask about every single time.

They drop 06.09.26. And if you’re in the city, there’s a reason to be on Ludlow at 5pm.

Broadcaster and presenter Graham Norton has joined the global push for a dedicated white wine emoji, sharing his support for the campaign on social media. Norton, who is a shareholder in Invivo, the New Zealand wine and spirits company behind the Graham Norton wine range, has added his voice to the so‑called Emojency – a movement calling on the Unicode Consortium to introduce a white wine emoji.

Supporters say the absence is increasingly out of step with modern wine culture, with white wine widely consumed globally, yet only red and sparkling wine are currently represented in emoji form.

Graham Norton joins global campaign for a white wine emoji

The campaign is led by New Zealand Winegrowers and has attracted growing international support from wine lovers, producers and public figures. The Unicode Consortium approves new emojis, but proposals must meet strict criteria. New Zealand Winegrowers will be making the formal submission on 17 July – World Emoji Day.

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

Sometimes the internet knows what I want before I do. This sweater from Akris Punto has been showing up in all kinds of targeted ads for the last week or two. I’ve been avoiding clicking through because I know it’s out of my price range, but it’s just so lovely! The green color is beautiful, and the flower intarsia is just my style.

Sadly, it won’t be making its way to my closet, but if your budget allows, this would be a great option for summer.

The sweater is $650 at Neiman Marcus and comes in sizes 2-16.

Sales of note for 6/5:

Summer is upon us, well, almost! The kids are out of school and we’re in the final stretch of being home until we leave for a majority of the summer months. As excited as I am, there’s so much prep that goes into packing, for both our family and my work. So a lot of my day to day has been hitting deadlines before we leave! We’ll continue to work throughout our trip, but prep work ahead of time is essential to not falling behind initially. Here’s a look at the month ahead!

What We’re Doing

• I have two big design reviews before we leave, one for a collaboration launching later this fall and the other launching pre-holiday. Both are totally different and in differing categories, so it’s fun to work on them simultaneously.
• We’ll be renovating our kitchen while we’re away, so we’ve had to pack everything up ahead of time. I can’t wait to see it all come together in August!
• We’re starting our summer travels off in Paris. I’m looking forward to being back with the girls. Last time we were there they were 1.5 and almost 4, so it’ll be an entirely different experience this time.
• We’ve booked all of our Paris restaurants for next week! Here are a few we’re hitting up this time: Gigi, Le Renommée, Le Grand Café, Le Bon Georges and Chez Janou.
• After Paris, we’re going to Spain for a little over two weeks, traveling between Mallorca, Menorca and Marbella until the beginning of July. Here’s what I’m packing for Spain.
• We’re heading to a concert this week with friends, and I’ve been torn on what to wear that’s comfy, playful and good for the heat. I think I’ll do a mini like this one or this one with a white tank top and sandals. 

What I’m Wearing

What I’m Buying

• I’ve had my eye on this embroidered Valentino bag and I’m obsessed
• A re-fill on a favorite face SPF
• This cute set for Spain: top and shorts
• I recently bought this Loretta Caponi dress on sale
• This bikini 
• A new Donde Estaban dress that feels like all the right vibes for Spain. I can’t decide between the mini or maxi and the pareo too 
• I am obsessed with Kroma’s bone broths. I’ve been drinking a mix of chicken or beef daily, and it’s a great way to easily hit my protein goals. I’ll be traveling with these individual packets this summer 
• A very good jacket, even if I may not need it for months (we’ll be in Switzerland and Austria later this summer, so it’ll work then! 
• These look comfortable enough to walk a good distance in to dinner while traveling, so I’m trying them out 
• Also restocking on a favorite natural deodorant of mine (I switched fully over in January and I’m very proud I stuck through the tough stinky bit!) 
• The new Follow Suit collection can’t be missed. The “heritage paisley” is my favorite: top and bottoms
• I also ordered myself a new set of chartreuse packing cubes
