They can even be dressed up with boots and a nice blouse and blazer, if you feel so inclined. Promising review: "I didn't have super high expectations for these, but I love them! The material is so soft and comfortable, and the fit is true to size. Thin enough material that they're not super hot, but also not see-through. The print looks just like the picture, and I think they are nice enough to be worn out, not just around the house. Could be dressed up cute with a jean jacket and some heels. Definitely recommend for the price!" —Chase & AimeePrice: $28.99 (available in sizes S–4X and 22 styles) A buttery soft pair of biker shorts with pockets that are excellent if you want to avoid chafing but still stay cool in the warmer weather or during your latest sweat sesh. They pair ~so~ nicely with all kinds of sports bras and workout tops, too. Promising review: "I have tried SEVERAL of these types of shorts for my morning runs — all from different companies. Seriously, I have been trying and returning to different companies for the past year or so. I couldn't find the right ones that wouldn't show my sweat marks near the crotch (so embarrassing), and who has time for being embarrassed when you're running five miles at 5 a.m.?

I don't know what other reviewers are talking about. I got this in both teal and orange and LOVE them both!" —K. HallPrice: $28.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 36 styles) A graphic hoodie you'll want to reach for whenever you get the ~slightest~ little chill. It's so snuggly you'll probably end up sleeping in it. Promising review: "My boyfriend and I loooove this hoodie!

I have to get more so my boyfriend can stop taking this one." —Nicole OrtegaPrice: $63.95 (available in men's sizes XS–XL and six colors) A pair of Levi's 501 denim shorts that'll have your booty looking ✨chef's kiss✨ thanks to the iconic fit. They somehow go with every top you own, from cropped tanks to vintage tees, and breezy blouses. You name it, they nail it. Promising review: "I absolutely love my Levi's 501 shorts! I got them in both dark wash and light wash, and they're perfect for any outfit. The fit is classic with just the right amount of structure while still being comfortable. They break in nicely over time and hold up really well. Whether I'm dressing them up or keeping it casual, these are my go-to denim shorts. Highly recommend!" —EmmaleighPrice: $19.57+ (available in sizes 16–39 and 41 washes) A pleated swing dress with pockets (for amazing convenience, of course) that's the perfect blend of chic and practicality for all of your day-to-night adventures.

My boss liked the dress on me so much that she ordered one for herself, and I already have ordered two more in other colors/prints for myself!" —BilliePrice: $30.99 (available in sizes L–4X and 27 styles) A trendy, eye-catching pair of round-lens sunglasses so retro cool, everyone will be dying to know which vintage boutique you snagged them from. They also look *way* more expensive than they actually are. Promising review: "I wore these sunglasses to Mexico and I felt cute every second in them! So far, they have held up well, and the polarized lens works very well. I love the soft carry case that also doubles as a lens cleaner." —MonicaPrice: $16.99 (available in six styles) A dazzling tiered midi skirt for a versatile, flowy staple that will inspire you to go take about a billion photos of yourself in a field of wildflowers. Promising review: "I like everything about this skirt! Great fabric and fits perfectly. Color was great." —AnnettePrice: $28.98 (available in sizes S–XL and 17 styles) An oversize blazer if you want to dress to impress without sacrificing comfort. Pair this with jeans and sneaks for a laidback OOTD, or rock some heels and a nice dress for a look that says, "I have arrived, people."

Promising review: "I wear this shirt ALLLLL the time now. When it was warmer, it was so easy to throw on over a pair of jeans or tucked in at the front for a cuter look. Now, I just layer it with a flannel or jacket for the colder weather." —NicolePrice: $19.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 11 colors) A versatile Wrangler denim jacket because you can never go wrong with anything denim, as it's long-lasting, sturdy, and extremely adorable.

Promising review: "Really like these pants! I'm a ballroom dance instructor and had been looking for pants tight at the thigh with movement below the knees and these were perfect.

Calgary's 5 most expensive homes for sale right now (May 2025)
A look at 980 101 Street S.W. in Calgary, Alta. ( The Calgary Real Estate Board says home sales in the city decreased again on a year-over-year basis last month amid uncertainty over the economy, while new listings and inventory both grew. The board says 2,236 homes were sold in April, marking a 22.3 per cent decrease compared with the same month last year, as sales in Calgary slowed across all property types. CREB chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie says that while sales have been softening in recent months, activity is still outpacing the levels seen during the economic downturn that plagued the city leading up to the pandemic, thanks to previous migration gains, relatively stable employment levels, lower lending rates, and better supply. There were 4,038 new listings on the market last month, up 15.7 per cent from a year earlier, as the city's inventory reached 5,867 homes for sale — more than double the supply available at the same time last year. The board says the rise in inventory has helped the market shift to balanced conditions, however lower-priced detached and semi-detached properties continue to struggle with insufficient supply. The residential benchmark price was $591,100, marking a 1.4 decrease from April 2024 and a month-over-month decrease of 0.2 per cent. Dreaming of owning a lavish new home?
