J. Crew Factory
15. A beach shirtdress reviewers rave is the perfect coverup or go-to dress. We love a purchase that can do double duty!
J.Crew Factory
16. A gauze button-up shirt if your wardrobe could use some new basic layering pieces without breaking the bank. I love that these look like sophisticated camp shirts and the over 1,200 reviewers with the 4.8-star rating agree!

Price: $39.50 (available in sizes XXS–3X and in two styles)

Alexis Bledel's Dating History Over The Years Includes A Few ‘Gilmore Girls' Loves, Too
Alexis Bledel is best known for playing Rory Gilmore in Gilmore Girls, a character whose love life fans are very passionate about. And Alexis dated some of her onscreen boyfriends too! Earlier this week, my phone buzzed with a text from a friend I hadn't spoken to in three months. 'Dean, Jess, Tristan, or Logan?' she asked. Sensing the urgency of the situation, I immediately responded, 'Logan 100000 percent.' I've elected myself president of the Logan Huntzberger Fan Club since the first time I watched Gilmore Girls. I firmly believe that Logan is the best partner for Rory. Sorry to all the Jess girlies out there — and if we're looking at off-screen relationships, that includes Alexis Bledel. Any Gilmore Girls fan worth their coffee knows Rory Gilmore's dating history like the back of their hand, but Alexis Bledel's dating history is much more low-key. The star is much more private, but just like Rory, she's captured her fair share of hearts over the years, including two of her Gilmore Girls love interests! Rory may have Dean, Jess, Tristan, and Logan, but Alexis has Jared, Chris, Milo, John, and Vincent. This might be controversial, but I think Dean was the best first boyfriend Rory could have had. As far as we know, Jared Padalecki was the best first boyfriend Alexis Bledel could have had, too. The Supernatural alum confirmed he and Bledel dated while filming Gilmore Girls Season 1. 'When Alexis and I met, we were both 17 years old and were both Texans and kind of in this new, strange city and I was like, 'Hey, want to go out to dinner?'" he told Glamour in 2021. 'I don't know if we tried to keep it a secret. I wish it was scandalous or something! I think it was more kind of silly.' I guess he really was 'her Dean.' Bledel may have dated two of her Gilmore Girls love interests, but she dated three of her Gilmore Girls co-stars. Chris Heuisler had a small role as a Stars Hollow High basketball player in Season 2 Episode 11, titled 'Secrets and Loans.' The pair didn't interact onscreen, but casting director Mara Casey told Life & Style that they were briefly together offscreen. Okay, even though I'm Team Logan, I happily admit that Rory and Jess had crazy onscreen chemistry. That's probably because their actors dated for three years in real life! They started dating halfway through filming Season 2 (which was around 2002 and was the season Jess moves to Stars Hollow) and broke up in 2006. They've stayed on good terms since; Ventimiglia even Bledel on her Emmy nomination in 2017. Alexis Bledel briefly dated this British model between 2010 and 2011. They were photographed attending a for Kate Spade's new fragrance in September 2010. Bledel guest-starred on Season 5 of Mad Men as the mistress of Pete Campbell (played by Vincent Kartheiser). Their illicit affair was totally above board in real life. They waited to begin dating two months after filming wrapped, got engaged a year later, and tied the knot in a in June 2014, according to US. The couple were careful to keep the details of their relationship private, so the world was happily surprised to learn — from , who played Luke Danes on Gilmore Girls — that they welcomed a son in fall 2015. In 2022, Us Weekly reported that Kartheiser had filed for divorce after eight years of marriage. Bledel currently appears to be single. I may be on Team Logan for Rory, but I'm on Team Alexis for Rory's real-life counterpart. Check out for even more celebrity relationship content! This post has been updated.
