A crime spree, furniture feng shui, and sneaker queens—yep, our group chat’s busy today.

• The Labuburglars strike again!

• Move your couch, move your mind.

• Turns out, women have a lot to say about sneaker culture.

• Is it just us, or are running clubs suddenly everywhere?

• Barbie has a new muse.

This shower’s got everything!

Once just a quick rinse, the humble shower has transformed into a cinematic, multi-step ritual—complete with mood lighting, eucalyptus bundles, and enough product to rival a Sephora aisle. On TikTok, the hashtag #Everythingshower has racked up billions of views, showing creators deep-conditioning, dry brushing, lymphatic massaging, and journaling before they even turn the water on.

But beneath the aesthetic steam shots is a bigger trend: We’re craving routine, control, and moments of solitude in an overstimulating world. Experts say that the structure of this ritual can help calm the nervous system, reinforce body connection, and even improve sleep. It’s less about the products and more about the intention.

So how do you make it indulgent—not overwhelming?

• Keep it simple: Choose one or two upgrades (a scrub, a mask, a scalp brush) instead of a 10-step routine.
  

• Set the vibe: Candles, music, a towel warmer—small switches go a long way.
  

• Make it about you: No $75 scalp serum required. Your everything shower doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s.

The takeaway? It’s not about doing more—it’s about making space for yourself, even if it’s just 15 minutes behind a closed door.

We’re proving bucket hats are definitely still in.

This week we asked, “How will you rock Hat Girl Fall?” and the results are in. We almost had a three-way tie between berets (14%), slouchy beanies (16%), and going hat-free (15%). In second place, 25% of you said you’d be bringing the dad vibes with a baseball cap. With a majority of the votes, a third of you are going with a knit bucket hat for fall (and we’re totally on board).

• Alo Yoga and Kendall Jenner teamed up again to prove that luxury is wellness at the sanctuary of Amangiri in Utah. "Whether I’m traveling, on set, or just at home recharging, I always come back to the little rituals that keep me grounded,” said Kendall, who added that that’s what Alo is all about. Using her eye for minimalism, she hand-selected ten elevated essentials to shop now (we’re definitely grabbing the Dreamscape Button Down!)

• Merit is known for launching thoughtfully formulated products one at a time, so when the brand announced its Great Skin Double Cleanse, loyal fans were rushing to sign up for pre-orders. The third product in its skincare offerings, this is a two-in-one formula that we can get behind.

• Soft Services just gave their cult-fave Buffing Bar a luxe makeover with the Affogato L’Orange fragrance—a swirled, shower-stunner that gently smooths skin, softens rough spots, and prevents ingrowns. Inspired by the Italian dessert, Founder Rebecca Zhou told The Newsette that the new “iteration offers a gentler grade of physical exfoliation (and a creamier lather) than the original Buffing Bar in the Soft Services’ range.” (Available today at Sephora.)

• Set your alarms now, Stanley and LoveShakFancy are back with another collab on Tuesday, August 19th! The perfectly pink collection will include three tumblers for all-day hydration and two mini coolers. The sign-up link is live now.

For Oleema and Kalani Miller, the ocean has always been more than an idyllic backdrop—it’s been a constant muse. Growing up in the laid-back surf town of San Clemente, CA, the duo’s sun-kissed upbringing included days spent in bikinis, catching waves (Oleema was once a professional surfer), and dreaming big. This foundation ultimately inspired MIKOH, the swim and ready-to-wear brand they’ve built into a globally recognized name.

Seventeen years into the business, Oleema’s design sensibility and Kalani’s business acumen remain the perfect counterbalance. The brand continues to capture attention year-round with designs that lean into feminine confidence with modern, wanderlust-ready style.

With their newly launched Summer ‘25 collection ready to shop, The Newsette sat down with Oleema and Kalani to chat about their unique relationship, finding confidence within, and their favorite pieces.

You’ve built a business and a brand as sisters. What’s one thing you’ve learned about each other through working together?

Kalani: Oleema is one of the most determined, hard-working, [and] badass women I know. I am lucky to have her as my business partner, sister, and best friend. Being sisters and business partners, we quickly learned our strengths and weaknesses. We’re a great team, and at the end of the day, I know she always has my back.

Oleema: Working with my sister and my best friend has definitely taught me more than I could have imagined—but, if I could pick one thing, it’s the ability to compartmentalize. At the end of the day, the most important thing is that we’re sisters and best friends—that comes before being business partners any day. After over 17 years of business, we are as close as the day we started and have grown so much throughout the years as individuals and as partners.

What do you each bring to the table that makes the MIKOH partnership work so well?
