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

I don’t have any logical arguments for purchasing this leather skirt from Stouls, but the heart wants what the heart wants. (Note that we’ve discussed leather at the office.)

Orange isn’t a color that I normally gravitate towards, but I would love to see this with an ivory blouse and some great brown boots this fall. If you need a topper, I would add a navy or camel blazer (avoiding black because I can’t be looking like a jack-o’-lantern).

The skirt is $2,255 at Net-a-Porter and comes in sizes XXS-XL.

By the end of summer, I find myself leaning into the warmest shades I own, the ones a sunset leaves behind, because they feel like they capture how far into the season we have gotten. Red is always the place to begin. From there, orange and golden yellows sit close enough to give the whole thing its glow. Then a trace of lime or chartreuse, just enough to keep it unexpected. It is a late-summer palette I come back to every year, saturated and spirited, with the charge of pieces that have been moving through these months with me.

Back-to-school season officially kicked off in New York City as the 17th Annual Amazon Kids Back-to-School Fashion Show, presented by Rookie Kids, returned to Iron23 in Chelsea. The star-studded evening, streamed live nationwide on Amazon Live, brought together celebrity families for a night celebrating fashion, family, and fall’s biggest kids’ style trends ahead of the new school year.

Now in its seventeenth year, the Rookie Kids Fashion Show has become one of New York’s most anticipated family fashion events, pairing professional children’s models with the kids of A-list guests on a single runway. This season’s presentation showcased collections from Nike, Levi’s, Lacoste, Converse, and Hurley, offering families an early look at the styles set to define the shopping season. Swipe through to see who popped out.

Ice-T and Coco arrived with their daughter Chanel for a relaxed family moment on set, with Ice-T in a black Supreme jacket and LA cap and Coco in an Ed Hardy dragon-print set. Coco later posed solo, striking a pose in the same black bodysuit and dragon-embroidered leggings.

Angela Simmons brought her son Sutton to the runway show, the two coordinating in shades of blue in front of the event’s step-and-repeat.

DaniLeigh posed with her daughter Velour backstage, the singer in a cream Nike pullover and black denim skirt while her daughter matched in a pink zip-up set and white sneakers.

The evening’s biggest talking point, however, came from Lil’ Kim, who supported her daughter Royal Reign as the twelve-year-old walked the runway. It marked another chapter in a tradition that began when Royal first walked the Rookie Kids runway during New York Fashion Week in 2023. Video of the mother-daughter duo at the event quickly went viral, racking up millions of views online.

From the front row to backstage, the Amazon Kids Back-to-School Fashion Show once again proved that some of fashion’s most stylish moments happen off the runway entirely, in the quiet, candid moments between famous parents and their kids. With over 5 billion media impressions generated throughout its run, the Rookie Kids show remains a back-to-school staple, and this year’s family-filled lineup made clear why it keeps growing.

The kind of mornings where what you reach for is a wicker basket for the flowers you cut, a wide-brim hat for shade, and a set of tools sized for small hands that want to help.

July was a month filled with unforgettable fashion moments, from the runways of Paris Haute Couture to concert stages and stylish city streets. After thousands of votes from the Fashion Bomb Daily community, Cardi B claimed the top spot as our Look of the Month winner, thanks to an incredible run of couture looks that cemented her status as one of fashion’s boldest risk-takers.

Take a look at who else made our list below:

1.Cardi B in Couture

Throughout Haute Couture Fashion Week, Cardi delivered one jaw-dropping look after another, embracing dramatic silhouettes, intricate embellishments, and impeccable craftsmanship. Among her standout moments were breathtaking creations by Georges Hobeika, archival Mugler, and several other couture houses that made Paris her personal runway. With every appearance, Cardi reminded us why she’s become one of fashion’s most exciting front-row stars.

2.Beyonce at Jay Z’s 30th Anniversary Concert

Coming in second was Beyoncé, proving once again that true style doesn’t always require couture. The superstar captivated fans with a refreshingly understated look while attending a Yankees game, pairing a simple white tee with classic Levi’s jeans and Timberland boots. Effortless, timeless, and undeniably cool, the look resonated with fans who appreciated its authenticity and accessibility.

3. Zendaya in Schiaparelli Couture



Zendaya and stylist Law Roach have been bringing the fashion to Zendaya’s summer sweep of press appearances and red carpets, but her Schiaparelli ensemble rose to the top as one of her most liked looks.

Not only was it exquisite, it also famously debuted on the runway in Paris hours before it appeared at the Spiderman: Brandy New Day London premiere. Both Law and Zendaya have shown a commitment to style that is unmatched, and has us all collectively looking forward to the next look.

4. Simone Biles In Custom Eman Alajlan Gold Gown

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens brought old Hollywood glamour to the 2026 ESPY Awards, coordinating in rich, complementary tones for the star-studded evening. Biles stunned in a custom gold silk gown from Eman Alajlan, featuring a strapless sweetheart neckline, a draped bodice, and a dramatic high-low skirt with a voluminous train. She completed the look with Le Silla heels and a diamond necklace, keeping the accessories elegant and understated against the gown’s striking metallic sheen.

That does it!

From couture masterpieces to elevated everyday dressing, July reminded us that great style comes in many forms. Whether making headlines in Paris, owning the front row, or keeping it classic courtside, these women delivered some of the month’s most talked-about fashion moments.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art has officially announced that the 2027 Met Gala will celebrate the extraordinary career of legendary designer John Galliano. The Costume Institute’s spring exhibition, John Galliano: Horizons, will serve as the inspiration for fashion’s biggest night, making Galliano only the third living designer to receive a solo exhibition from the Costume Institute while still living, following Yves Saint Laurent in 1983 and Rei Kawakubo in 2017.

Opening on May 9, 2027, the exhibition will trace Galliano’s remarkable career from his groundbreaking graduate collection at Central Saint Martins through his influential tenures at Givenchy, Christian Dior, Maison Margiela, and his own label. Organized into three sections, the exhibition will explore the evolution of one of fashion’s most imaginative designers, highlighting the artistry, craftsmanship, and storytelling that have defined his work for more than four decades.

The exhibition will also examine one of the most controversial moments of Galliano’s career. Rather than overlooking his 2011 dismissal from Dior and his namesake label following antisemitic remarks that resulted in a criminal conviction in France, the exhibition will place those events within the broader context of his career, exploring the intersection of artistic achievement, accountability, and redemption.

In announcing the exhibition, Anna Wintour praised Galliano’s ability to blend scholarship with imagination, describing his work as a fusion of past, present, and future that continues to inspire the fashion industry. From his theatrical runway spectacles to his transformative couture collections, Galliano has left an undeniable mark on modern fashion.

Fashion fans can expect the 2027 Met Gala red carpet to embrace Galliano’s signature aesthetic, with dramatic silhouettes, couture craftsmanship, historical references, lavish embellishments, and theatrical beauty moments. If history is any indication, celebrities and designers alike will interpret the theme through bold, imaginative looks inspired by one of fashion’s greatest visionaries.

John Galliano: Horizons opens to the public on May 9, 2027, and runs through January 9, 2028. As always, the Met Gala will officially launch the exhibition, bringing together fashion’s biggest names for the Costume Institute’s annual fundraising event.

Will John Galliano’s extraordinary legacy inspire one of the most memorable Met Gala red carpets yet? Tell us what you think below.

I’m just starting to go through all of the stuff that I bought at the Nordstrom sale… but these pinstriped jeans are definite keepers for me. They’re a little bit unusual — I can’t remember having pinstriped jeans before? — but the fit is good, the length is right (I’m 5’3 and take petites), and hey, I have enough boring dark wash denim anyways. (In fact, the Wit & Wisdom denim tends to be a reader favorite during the NAS!)

The pants are $59 right now, but will go back up to $88 after the sale ends.
