We Found Olivia Rodrigo's Exact Polka Dot Micro Shorts

Is there anything Olivia Rodrigo can't do? Before checking major milestones like "headline a major U.S. festival" and "collaborate with rock legend David Byrne of The Talking Heads" off her bucket list at last weekend's Governors Ball in New York City, she also further cemented her fashion icon status by nailing not one, but two of the summer's biggest trends in one budget-friendly outfit. Ahead of her headlining performance on Saturday, O-Rod was spotted strutting around NYC in a pair of linen polka dot micro shorts from Reformation. Not only is her exact pair somehow still in stock (although some sizes seem to be going fast!), they're just $98, so you can copy Olivia's look without blowing your budget. While the Sour songstress completed her ensemble with a rugged pair of biker-inspired boots to match her edgy aesthetic, it's easy to incorporate polka dots into preppy, classic, or vintage-inspired outfits, too. Dare we say it's one of the most versatile patterns out there? Not to mention, this isn't the first time the Grammy winner has been spotted wearing polka dots, further proving it's one of this year's hottest trends. If you're more into the micro shorts trend than polka dots, the Ref shorts come in solid colors, too. We've seen everyone from Dua Lipa to Daisy Edgar Jones and Dakota Johnson wear itty-bitty shorts, so it was only a matter of time before Olivia jumped on the trend. And spoiler alert: During her performance later that night, she wore yet another pair of hot pants, this time in a bold red complete with studs. If you're inspired to steal Liv's look but not inspired to dish out $98, we found more polka dot shorts in a variety of cuts starting at just $9. Looking for a denim version? We're big fans of the larger dots on this pair from ASOS. And while there are plenty of similar micro shorts available, we're also loving this longer style, ideal for Old Hollywood-inspired looks.

Panthers vs. Oilers Stanley Cup Final changes rinks. And, probably, little else

While The Talking Heads sang, ' where I want to be' and the TV sports talking heads will make 'home-ice advantage' a conversation topic, Games 3 and 4 of the Stanley Cup Final in Amerant Bank Arena could look very much like the two overtime games in Edmonton that started this rematch. Expect neither team to alter style. Sunrise's ice isn't Edmonton's, known for decades as the NHL's best, but it isn't a swamp. And, the biggest home-rink advantage is personnel deployment. Still, you want to strut with Stanley, you can't be a mouse in your house. Since the NHL came out of the 2005 lockout and excluding the 2020 playoffs that were confined to Edmonton's Rogers Place, only one team won the Cup with a losing record at home in the Final: 2018-19 St. Louis, which lost two of three at home to the Bruins, but won Games 2, 5 and 7 in Boston. Of the other 17 Cup Finals in that time span, none of the winners lost more than one home game. READ MORE: After excelling on road all playoffs, it's time for Panthers to produce at home in Cup Final That's despite, in these times of uniformity among NHL rinks, the lone by-law advantage for home teams is personnel deployment. As the home team in Games 3 and 4, the Panthers get to make any player changes last before face-offs (unless they iced the puck, which means the players on the ice have to stay there). So, when Edmonton puts out center Connor McDavid, right wing Leon Draisaitl and Whatever Left Wing Fits At The Moment, the Panthers have an easier time getting the forward line and/or defense pair they want on the ice. 'The advantage is marginal,' Panthers coach Paul Maurice said. 'A lot of it happens probably just on running your bench in terms of minutes that you put on people when you're on the road and you get a D zone draw, especially when you have the players at the top end like Edmonton has. You run your top end of your bench harder than you will at home.' Evidence of that: ice times going into Friday's second overtime. Despite 80 minutes of hockey down, the Panthers had two forwards, center Jesper Boqvist and Jonah Gadjovich, under 10 minutes of ice time for the game. Edmonton, which rolled four lines more successfully, had no such players. If a fast, physical series also becomes a long series, that matters. 'Florida does like their line matchups,' Edmonton coach Kris Knoblauch said. 'So, it'll be difficult for us to get away from those. But, we had the opportunity to play four lines, which allows us to shake those matchups a bit.' READ MORE: Panthers' top line hasn't scored yet in Stanley Cup Final. Is it a cause for concern? They are — and will remain — who you think they are Nobody knows more about making high-skill plays on various ice surfaces than NHL all-time leading scorer Wayne Gretzky, whose playoff history includes games on the NHL's smoothest, swiftest track in Edmonton and games in Los Angeles and Miami Arena. During TNT's postgame wrapup of Game 2, Gretzky opined that in Sunrise, the Oilers should play a more direct game to account for June ice that can give pucks minds of their own on passes and slick stickhandling moves. Perhaps the guy with more assists in NHL history than anyone else has total points is right. But, evidence from last year's Cup Final says the Oilers got used to working on whatever quality ice is underfoot. Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky had to steal Game 1 for the Panthers, stopping all 32 Edmonton shots (the Panthers had only 18). In Game 5, McDavid had two goals and two assists, including an all-time highlight on which he slithered among three Panthers to set up Corey Perry. Edmonton's lone goal in Game 7 came off a stretch pass breakaway. 'You're not going to change how your team's playing,' Knoblauch said. 'You make little adjustments. But your identity is your identity throughout the playoffs.' The Panthers play the same smart, pounding, opponent-irritating way at home and on the road, better at the latter recently. Two of their last three home games, they got zeroed by Toronto in Game 6 and Carolina in Game 4, each time with a chance to end the series. Meanwhile, their last seven road games, the Panthers have scored, counting backwards, five; three; five; five; five; six; and six. That's exactly five goals per game. Home playoff goals by this year's leading Panthers playoff goal scorer, center Sam Bennett? One or one more than Ms. Valdes-Valle, your elementary school Spanish teacher. But, he's set an NHL record with 12 goals on the road.

Movies to see this week: 'Stop Making Sense,' 'The Master,' 'Lost Highway'

Stories about musicians, concert films, films with live music, and iconic soundtracks are all part of the lineup local curators are sharing this week. Here are some of the great repertory screenings taking place in Twin Cities theaters from March 12–18. Thursday, Mar. 13 at Emagine Willow Creek Another week, another run of David Lynch films. In addition to screenings of Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, one of his more complex works (this side of Inland Empire) arrives at Emagine Willow Creek. Bill Pullman and Patricia Arquette star in the meandering movie about videotapes that portend a musician's murder conviction. It probably would have been a nice fit with the recent Film Noir Festival from The Trylon and Heights theaters, which focused on films that have characters road-tripping around the U.S. Lost Highway certainly has crime, wayward souls, and, as the title suggests, the open road. 9900 Shelard Pkwy., Plymouth ($11.60) Thursday, Mar. 13 at The Heights Theater David Byrne and The Talking Heads are coming to The Heights. Not in person, but in their iconic concert film, shot over three nights at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood. It's not exactly hard to find, but with it absent from streaming services (except to rent), it's not as easy to catch as many other films. The classic was remastered in 2023 for its 40th anniversary, putting a fresh shine into the big suits and enviable dance moves. 951 Central Ave NE, Columbia Heights ($13–$13.75) Friday, Mar. 14 at The Trylon Cinema The Trylon continues its trek through the work of Paul Thomas Anderson this week with The Master. (Punch Drunk Love also plays later in the week.) It draws thinly veiled inspiration from Scientology and its founder, L. Ron Hubbard. The movie is often subtle (though, not always) and presents an at times disturbing portrait of people who crave power, as well as the individuals who are drawn to them. The cast is almost too full of award-winning actors, including Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Jesse Plemons, Rami Malek, and Laura Dern. 2820 E 33rd St., Minneapolis ($8) Wednesday, Mar. 12 at Edina Mann Theatres Edina Theatres' relatively new repertory series brings Stanley Kubrick's most enigmatic film to the screen this week. Famously beautiful and frustrating, 2001 has so many memorable scenes that it's easy to forget all the other passages, like the meeting on the space station before Dave (Keir Dullea) and Frank (Gary Lockwood) get aboard the Discovery with HAL 9000. That makes it a pretty enjoyable re-watch. [Cues "Also Sprach Zarathustra."] 3911 W. 50th St., Edina ($12.15) Tuesday, Mar. 18 at The Parkway Theater Carl Theodor Dreyer's silent film belongs in a small group from its era that aren't just enjoyable but remain impactful. Maria Falconetti's portrayal of Joan of Arc is emotional and can still move viewers almost 100 years after its release. Tuesday's screening at the Parkway will have a live score performed by Paris 1919, the group of composer Chris Strouth. 4814 Chicago Ave., Minneapolis ($20.21–$23)More movies screening in the Twin Cities this week: Mar. 12: 2001 A Space Odyssey (1968) at Edina Theatre Mar. 12: Moonstruck (1987) at Emagine Eagan, Emagine Lakeville, Emagine White Bear, and Emagine Willow Creek Mar. 12: Blue Velvet (1986) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 12: Secret Movie Night at Emagine Willow Creek Mar. 12–13: The Great Muppet Caper (1981) at Emagine Eagan, Emagine Lakeville, Emagine White Bear, and Emagine Willow Creek Mar. 12: Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story (2024) at The Trylon Cinema Mar. 12: Back to the Future (1985) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 12–13: Despicable Me (2010) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 12–13: Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs (2025) at The Trylon Cinema Mar. 12–15: Despicable Me (2010) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 12–16: Sing (2016) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 12–16: The Secret Life of Pets (2016) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 12 and 16: Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack (1988) at AMC Coon Rapids, AMC Eden Prairie, AMC Rosedale, AMC Southdale, CMX Odyssey, Emagine Lakeville, Emagine White Bear, Emagine Willow Creek, and Oakdale Cinema (Mar. 12 only) Mar. 13: Jurassic Park (1994) at St. Michael Cinema Mar. 13 and 16: Oldboy (2003) at Grandview Theatres Mar. 13 and 15–16: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) at Emagine Lakeville Mar. 14–18: Hop (2011) at Emagine East Bethel, Emagine Lakeville, Emagine White Bear, and Emagine Willow Creek Mar. 14 and 17–19: Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 14: The Ordinaries (Die Gewöhnlichen) (2022) at The Trylon Cinema Mar. 14 and 16–18: Leprechaun (1993) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 14–15: Jumanji (1995) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 14–16: Smallfoot (2018) at Oakdale Cinema, Parkwood Cinema, Rosemount Cinema, Southbridge Crossing Cinema, and West End Cinema Mar. 15: Shrek (2001) and Shrek 2 (2004) with Taste the Movies Mar. 15: The Lady Eve (1941) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 15: The Lady Eve (1941) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 15–16 and 19: Wild at Heart (1990) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 15–16: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) at Emagine White Bear, and Emagine Willow Creek (Mar. 16 only) Mar. 16: Charlie's Angels (2000) at Alamo Drafthouse Mar. 16–17: Top Gun (1986) at Oakdale Cinema, Parkwood Cinema, Rosemount Cinema, and West End Cinema Mar. 16–18: Punch Drunk Love (2002) at The Trylon Cinema Mar. 17: Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) at The Parkway Theater Mar. 17: Near Dark (1987) at Emagine Willow Creek Mar. 18: The Watermelon Woman (1996) at Alamo Drafthouse
