Naturally, your options can feel a bit limited, and even redundant, especially when you’re only working with three specific shades. But getting ready for an Independence Day fête (whether you’re grilling at home in the backyard, headed to the beach, or attending an event) doesn’t mean you have to reach for something covered with the American flag. Whatever you choose to do this Independence Day, the best way to celebrate is in a look that…

See Kylie Jenner and Sofia Richie’s Quiet Luxury Outfits That Are Going ViralJune 21, 2023 at 05:33PMWhile the definition of quiet luxury is derived from an aesthetic that’s seemingly been around for ages - minimalist, understated clothing made from high quality materials - the term has exploded over the past year by 614 percent, according to boohoo.com’s Google Trends data analysis.
