If one of the celebrations on your summer social calendar is set on (or overlooking) the sand, you likely need a summer wedding guest dress that's beach appropriate.

Welcome to one of the most heart-opening weeks of July, R29 babes. On July 14th, we experience the Cancer New Moon, one of the year’s most nourishing fresh starts. Since Cancer is ruled by the moon, this lunation carries an extra sense of emotional wisdom, inviting us to reconnect with the people, places, and practices that make us feel safe enough to grow. If the first half of 2026 has left you feeling uncertain or emotionally stretched, this New Moon offers a chance to begin again.

If there's one thing you should do upon the arrival of the Super New Moon in Cancer on July 14th, it's to protect your heart —  oh, and offer some TLC to your aura, too. With Mercury retrograde in Cancer shaping the lunation's overall energy, our intentions might not be clear and our words misunderstood, making it a complicated moment for us all. While we will wish to make peace with yesteryear, we’ll also find it’s more effective and beneficial to do so in our own way.
