It’s that more-or-less midway point of summer that starts to feel like Groundhog’s Day — with so long to go until fall, a serious refresh is more that necessary. There are all the standard sorts of jumpstarts you can make to get reinvigorated for thelong, hot weeks ahead(a closet clean-out comes to mind), but really, it’s the small things that can make the biggest difference. Experiment with thecrocodile nail trendat your next salon visit, grab anew matching set outfitfor an upcoming night out, or indulge in aretro momentwith the season’s top throwback hair accessory. If your summer slump up is significant, consider taking a page out ofJ.Lo’s bookand throw a party based on your favorite streaming series — an excuse to dress up, host friends, and get some fresh Instagram pictures while you’re at it. —Amanda Ross,Beauty Editor |
