Summer is the season of unadulterated hedonism — of spending as much time outdoors in as little clothing as possible. Ideally spent in some far-flung seaside locale (the Mediterranean, perhaps), days should be drenched in sun and saltwater. And when it comes time to rinse off all of that briny goodness, there’s only one proper place to cleanse yourself: an outdoor shower. Exquisitely dubbed “pure summer vernacular” by a delightful New York Times piece, the outdoor shower is both pragmatic and pleasurable....

If you’ve ever felt anxious or been reluctant to check your luggage at the airport, afraid that it might not meet you at your destination, I feel you. Last year, while I was on a European trip with friends, one member of the group had her suitcase go missing en route from Greece to Spain. After a lot of back and forth with customer service (who couldn’t tell us where it was), she eventually took matters into her own hands and trekked back to the Barcelona airport, where she found her bag sitting in a large room packed to the brim with lost luggage — every traveler’s worst nightmare....

There’s nothing better than an estate with a celebrity pedigree, and that’s exactly what this $45 million home in Malibu has. It was bought by Brad Pitt in the early aughts, and it’s where he lived part-time with then-love Angelina Jolie. In 2011, he sent it off to another A-list couple, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. They didn’t stay long at the midcentury modern residence, instead deciding to flip the property only six months later (which they are known to do)....

Let’s get one thing straight right out of the gate: A vacation to Disneyland or Disney World is always a good idea. Both theme parks offer days worth of fun for people of all ages thanks to thrilling rides, delectable food, and an atmosphere of joy that will bring everyone right back to childhood. However, if you’re deciding on a Disneyland vs. Disney World vacation, there are a few differences you should know about....

Shopping for sunscreen is a lot like Goldie Locks and the Three Bears. This one has too low SPF, this one is too oily, and the next one makes you look like a ghost in photos. It gets pretty frustrating after a while. But Miranda Kerr approves of the EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF....

Is Emily Ratajkowski’s relationship with Pete Davidson over before it even started? It seems that way as both celebrities have been spotted with other famous faces instead of each other lately. Ratajkowski, who has made no secret about wanting to keep her options open, was spotted enjoying a make-out sesh with artist Jack Greer under the mistletoe. (Of course, the Daily Mail was there to capture the romantic moment.) She looked giddy and very festive outside her apartment in a red puffy coat with a large scarf keeping her neck warm, and tight jeans showing off her fit figure....

Being photogenic totally runs in this family. We know that A-list power couple Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade can take a good picture. After all, the two have graced a number of red carpets as well as their own individual magazine covers over the years. But now, it seems like their teen daughter Zaya is getting in on the modeling game with these stunning photos for i-D. The 14-year-old posed for a series of photos captured by Tyler Mitchell for the outlet’s Winter 2021 The Darker Issue, no....

We love it when celebrities dig through their photo archives and find hidden gems. That’s exactly what Halle Berry did when she discovered a 15-year-old snapshot of her, designer Donatella Versace and Jennifer Lopez — talk about an iconic trio! Berry didn’t indicate where they were when the photo was taken, but all three of the women are bedecked and bedazzled in formalwear. Lopez has her signature J.Lo high ponytail along with a pearl-colored gown and a sparkling bracelet....

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park expanded its footprint this week with a more than 16,000-acre Pōhue Bay addition that includes Hawaiian cultural sites and habitats for endangered animals. The Pōhue Bay, which includes the area from the Māmalahoa Highway to the shoreline, was donated to the park by the nonprofit Trust for Public Land, according to the National Park Service. The new land includes important cultural sites, like the largest recorded abrader quarry in Hawaii, lava tubes, a burial site, mauka-makai (or mountain to sea) trails, fishing shrines, and more, as well as acts as a critical habitat for federally-listed endangered Hawaiian species like the Hawaiian hawksbill turtle and the Hawaiian monk seal....

Jennifer Lopez is ready and raring to go with her summer fashions after enjoying the long Memorial Day Weekend. She shared images of her fierce look for all of her Instagram followers to enjoy — and she really knocked her poolside look right out of the park. Wearing a skimpy black bikini and a butterfly-print pool coverup, she confidently posed and flaunted her fit physique for the camera. J.Lo chose to accessorize her summer style with gold jewelry, including large hoop earrings and oversized sunglasses....

Some parents would give anything for their kids to listen to them, but Keira Knightley feels a little differently. The Charlotte actress recently shared that she hopes her daughters don’t listen when they’re older. Knightley shares daughters Edie, 6, and Delilah, 2, with husband James Righton. In an interview with PEOPLE published today, she talked about her views on fashion and makeup, believing “less is more.” And while she teaches her daughters the same, she also hopes they will follow their own sense of style instead of copying their mom....

Tucked away in a corner of the Adirondacks lies a charming New York town that shines. A two-time Olympic destination, Lake Placid is the place where 19th-century tycoons chose to vacation. And yet, it prefers a hushed kind of reputation. “Lake Placid is an idyllic winter sports town, in much the same tradition as St. Moritz, Chamonix, and other iconic alpine resorts,” says two-time Olympic champion and Lake Placid native Andrew Weibrecht....

Memorial Day Weekend is just a week away and while the holiday is fast approaching, AAA’s advice for travelers will save anyone hitting the road or skies both time, stress, or money. In total, 39.2 million people are expected to travel 50 miles or more from their homes for the unofficial start of summer, 8.3% more than in 2021, according to AAA. That demand, coupled with high gas costs — currently averaging more than $4....

If there’s one thing Mammoth Mountain is known for, it’s being reliable. But just because it’s consistent doesn’t mean it doesn’t know how to shake things up every once in a while. Mammoth got its start as a ski area in 1942, thanks to skiing pioneer Dave McCoy, who saw the real potential in the 100,000-year-old geological wonder mountain. It was then that he built a small rope tow to help the intrepid skiers of the time make their way up the mountain....
