Bella Hadid Teases a Secret Tie-Dye DIY Project, and I'm First in Line For Her Tees

Tie-dyeing has become the ultimate at-home activity in the past few weeks, a DIY project to pass the time that Bella Hadid certainly seems to be a fan of. The supermodel shared some Instagram snaps of herself isolating at home with her mom, Yolanda Hadid, in the background. Then, just like that, we were taken outside to her workspace - an area in the backyard where Bella hung up tie-dye tees on a rack in various colors and what looks like multiple breezy, coral throw-overs. "I'm very excited about something I've been working on..I hope you will love the idea," she wrote on a photo of herself next to her tees.

We can't be sure what Bella's going to do with her collection in the works, but we do know that it'll probably be for a good cause. Whether she's creating tops to sell to followers and fans or just giving them out to members of the community and/or fashion industry, we can't wait to find out more. Scroll through to see Bella's teasers, then watch this space and we'll keep you posted if she shares any other DIY items that look just as cute - maybe sneakers will be next?

These 10 Summer Dresses Look Like a Million Bucks, but They're All Under $35

When the sun beats down, the only thing I want to wear is an easy-breezy dress that allows me to move freely. Since the temperatures in my town soared well into the mid-90s this week, I've been reaching for lightweight Summer dresses every single day. Luckily, Old Navy has some incredible sales this week, so I decided to go through its entire inventory of dresses - that's over 400 pieces - to highlight 10 of my favorites. Whether you want a soft jersey-knit dress or an elevated linen blend, these dresses look way more expensive than they are; nothing is over 35 bucks.

This Bestselling Maxi Dress You Keep Seeing on Instagram Is Only $14 Today

Just like doing my hair or spending extra time grooming my eyebrows, putting in the extra effort to find something cute to wear - even if I'm just working from home and in sweats - has the ability to affect my mood. There's certainly no replacement for stylish loungewear, but I was curious as to what would happen if I challenged myself to wear a dress while working from home - weather dependent, of course. In part because I kept seeing this adorable printed maxi dress in my Instagram feed, which I'll link to ahead, but also because I was just genuinely curious about whether I'd feel silly wearing a dress inside, or if I'd love it.

I'm happy to report that last week, I wore a thin maxi dress inside three times! Not only was I completely comfortable (important note that I only wore easy-breezy dresses; nothing formfitting), but exuded a bit more pep throughout my day. I encourage you to take a break from your usual loungewear game and embark on a dress journey. If you need some shopping ideas, here's the Sleeveless V-Neck Maxi Shift Dress($14) that got me in the mood.

These Are the Face Masks We're Relying On From the Fashion Brands We Love

Fashion-friendly face masks? I didn't think I cared as long as I had a mask that met the CDC's guidelines and kept me - and those around me - safe. But as we adjust to the new normal, a mask that also looks cute and one that's reliable - because I selected it from a brand I already know makes beautiful, quality apparel - became something important to me, too.

My team and I combed through the many fashion brands making cloth masks, and together, we found the ones we really do rely on daily. These are the picks we've incorporated seamlessly into our wardrobes, the ones that are most comfortable, and the selects that feel just a bit more stylish than the rest.
