I used to be a ‘buy a new wardrobe every time I travel’ kind of a gal. But a few years ago, I discovered the beauty of a capsule wardrobe—and my wallet and closet have thanked me ever since. I’ve stopped buying fast-fashion items as much as possible and began investing in pieces that will stick around with me for longer than a single season. One of the first things I noticed after making the switch from trendy clothes to timeless staples is that I rarely feel like I have nothing to wear, especially when I’m traveling.

A piece of art is only as good as the duration for which it remains relevant, for how long it is able to hold its place at the top of the shelves. But since shelves don’t technically exist anymore, and anything can fall through the trending playlists between whatever Anuv Jain and Badshah have released that week, every musician needs to be a content creator. Hundreds of reels, stories, posts, collaborations, and snippets need to be sent out before the song is even out, and if you miss even a single piece of this marketing ploy, your song will never…

FangXiaNuo/Getty Images/iStockphoto When new dietary guidelines are unveiled later this month, the Trump administration is expected to upend long-held advice on whole milk and its full-fat friends in the dairy aisle.
