If you're a fashionista when you travel, there's a certain magic and charm that comes with dressing for the city you're exploring—not to try to fully blend in, but to become part of the story told by each destination. How to dress for a trip to New York, LA, Paris, London and Rome. If You Like to Bring Outfits on Vacation, Here's How to Do ItAt 1923 Main Street®, we believe your clothes should say as much about your journey as your photos do. Whether you're wandering through the lively streets of New York City, café-hopping in Paris, or soaking up the west coast vibes of LA, we've got you covered—literally.Let's talk travel style: unscripted, effortless and rooted in curiosity. Here's how to pack with purpose and style, wherever your itinerary takes you.Fashion-Forward Travel Outfits for Five Popular City DestinationsNew York City: Urban Pulse Meets Creative EdgeIn the city that never sleeps, your style needs to move with you—fast, fresh, and bold. For summer in NYC, keep it street-smart and breathable. Rock our Unscripted Statement graphic tee with relaxed cargo shorts or distressed denim. Swap the leather jacket for a lightweight button-down or leave it out altogether. High-top sneakers still rule, and bold sunglasses or a bucket hat add just enough edge without trying too hard. NYC style is about individuality—make a statement without shouting.For men, pair the same tee with slim, cuffed chinos or athletic shorts and standout sneakers. Leave the jacket at home, but keep the energy strong with layered chains or a structured cap. Whether you're downtown or crossing bridges, your look should feel effortless but always on.Paris: Effortless Chic on Cobblestone StreetsParisian style thrives on thoughtful simplicity, even in the summer. Trade heavy layers for a lightweight tee or tank (our Unscripted Dare to Roam design works perfectly) paired with high-waisted shorts or a breezy midi skirt. Add minimalist sneakers and a woven bag—or yes, a beret if you're feeling bold. The key: looking effortless while still turning heads. It's style without the show.For men, lean into quiet sophistication with a crisp tee, tapered chinos or linen pants, and clean leather sneakers. Swap the trench for a linen overshirt if there's a breeze. A slim watch and classic sunglasses seal the look. Parisian summer style whispers confidence—cool, collected, and always chic.Los Angeles: Laid-Back LuxeLA is home to many different categories of style, so your outfit here calls for comfort with a definite style edge. Our vintage-wash Roam Freely Wear Boldly tee is the perfect base for denim shorts, a flannel tied around the waist, and oversized sunglasses. This is a city where your look should feel as relaxed as your agenda—unplanned, free, and sun-kissed.For men, try our Unscripted Adventure Arch tee with joggers or shorts and comfy clean sneakers. Add a lightweight overshirt or open button-down for layering and finish with retro shades. London: Timeless Cool with a Rainy-Day TwistLondon style in summer is all about effortless cool and being ready for anything. Start with a breathable short-sleeve tee or linen shirt, then add tailored shorts or relaxed trousers. Swap boots for crisp white sneakers or sleek loafers, and don't forget a lightweight tote or statement sunglasses to elevate the look. Londoners master the mix of classic and unexpected—think a retro cap or a bold crossbody to finish it off. Sun or shade, the style always shines.For men, aim for laid-back polish with clean lines—our Unscripted Statement tee is a go-to. Wear it solo or toss on a light overshirt for breezy evenings. Pair with drawstring chinos or rolled denim, and complete the outfit with low-top trainers. A minimalist watch adds that refined summer touch. Londoners know how to make sunshine look effortless.Rome: Sun-Drenched Elegance with a Hint of DramaSummer in Rome is all about effortless elegance that sizzles with style. A linen-blend tee tucked into high-waisted trousers or a flowy midi skirt is perfect for wandering cobblestone streets or sipping espresso at a café. Add strappy leather sandals and oversized sunglasses for that classic Roman holiday feel. Gold accents—think hoop earrings, a sculptural cuff, or sleek cat-eye shades—bring just the right amount of drama. In Rome, style is art. Dress like you belong in a Fellini film.For men, keep it cool and polished with the same breathable tee, tailored linen pants or dressy shorts, and a slim leather belt. Loafers or crisp white sneakers are ideal for strolling through piazzas, and vintage-inspired sunglasses add a refined finish. In Rome, confidence is quiet and style is second nature—keep it sharp, simple, and sun-ready.The Key to it All: Blending in Without Losing YourselfThere's an art to the balance between respecting local culture and holding on to your personal style. That's where 1923 Main Street graphic designs really shine. Our designs are rooted in the soul of travel—each piece designed to evoke curiosity and wonder without shouting "tourist." It's about wearing your journey, not just walking through it. We know because we've lived it and each design has been thoughtfully created based on a very specific experience or destination.Packing Staples with Local Flair1923 Main Street t-shirt, sweatshirts and hoodies are designed to be versatile enough to wear in every corner of the world, yet each one has a story to tell. When packing, think layers: a tee for daytime exploring, a cozy hoodie for chilly nights, and a statement sweatshirt for those unexpected photo ops. Style them with city-specific accessories—scarves in Paris, a Yankees cap in NYC, or classic Ray-Bans in LA—and you've got a travel wardrobe that adapts, but never disappears.Travel-Inspired Designs for the Free-Spirited WandererAt 1923 Main Street, we design with the traveler in mind—those who believe the best moments are the unscripted ones. All of our designs are inspired by real places and the real people who wander them. These aren't just shirts—they're souvenirs in motion, crafted for the journey and the stories you'll tell after.Vibe with Your ItineraryYour clothes should move with your trip—not weigh it down. Whether you're brunching in a hidden Parisian café, wandering an arts district in LA, navigating subway stairs in NYC, or heading to a local pub in London, choose pieces that fit your mood, your moves and your moment. Comfort, confidence and curiosity all stitched together.Wherever your next adventure takes you, pack pieces that spark conversations and memories. Because at 1923 Main Street, we don't just make clothing—we dress the curious, the bold and the endlessly inspired.Unscripted journeys start with what you wear. So go ahead and Wear the Adventure.

What should we wear and not wear? When most Christians think about acceptable clothing, they're inclined to debate a woman's skirt length or other feminine attire. But the Bible goes much deeper than that. In this podcast, Scott Brown and Jason Dohm, joined by special guest Jeff Pollard, discuss Scott's new book, Beyond Modesty: Tracing the Meaning of Clothing through the Fabric of Scripture. They explain that the doctrine of clothing—which unfolds in Scripture from Genesis to Revelation—goes far beyond matters of modesty in women's clothing; it speaks to the very nature of man's sin and God's work to clothe sinners in His righteous robes. Once realizing this—whether we're man or woman—we should seek to reflect Christ in how we dress. Click Here to Order Beyond Modesty

Erin overheard the teenager ask a clerk if the beautiful, gently-used gown on display could be put on hold while she figured out how to pay for it.She asked her foster mother for the money, but a prom dress is an extra in life, and its price was out of their reach. Seeing her disappointment, Erin bought the dress for her.

Shortly thereafter, Cinderella's Closet NKY began.

The Texture of Change: Dress, Self-Fashioning, and History in Western Africa, 1700 – 1850 (Ohio UP, 2024) examines historical change across a broad region of western Africa—from Saint Louis, Senegal, to Freetown, Sierra Leone—through the development of textile commerce, consumption, and dress. Indigo-dyed and printed cotton, wool, linen, and silk cloths constituted major trade items that linked African producers and consumers to exchange networks that were both regional and global. While much of the historiography of commerce in Africa in the eighteenth century has focused on the Atlantic slave trade and its impact, this study follows the global cloth trade to account for the broad extent and multiple modes of western Africa's engagement with Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Jody Benjamin analyzes a range of archival, visual, oral, and material sources drawn from three continents to illuminate entanglements between local textile industries and global commerce and between the politics of Islamic reform and encroaching European colonial power. The study highlights the roles of a diverse range of historical actors mentioned only glancingly in core-periphery or Atlantic-centered framings: women indigo dyers, maroon cotton farmers, petty traveling merchants, caravan guides, and African Diaspora settlers. It argues that their combined choices within a set of ecological, political, and economic constraints structured networks connecting the Atlantic and Indian Ocean perimeters. Jody Benjamin is a social and cultural historian of western Africa with expertise in the period between 1650 and 1850. His research is informed by a methodological concern to center the diverse experiences and perspectives of Africans in ways that transcend the limitations of the colonial archive. In broad terms, Prof. Benjamin's scholarship interrogates the multiple connections between west African, African diaspora and global histories through the lens of material culture, technology, labor, gender and race to reshape how historians think about western Africa's role in the history of global capitalism and its connections to contemporary questions of global inequality. Dr. Benjamin's work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the University of California Regents, University of California Humanities Research Initiative (UCHRI), the Hellman Fellows Fund, and the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University. From 2022-2023, he was the Principal Investigator for a Mellon Sawyer Seminar, “Unarchiving Blackness,” exploring archival practices in African and African Diaspora Studies. Prior to Howard University, Dr. Benjamin taught at the University of California, Riverside. You can learn more about his work here.

No matter where you go, you are likely to see a wide variety of clothing styles. Does the Bible have anything relevant to say about what we wear today, even though it is over 2,000 years old? In this episode, we will consider the following: What does the Bible say about what we wear? What is modest and what isn't? What should a Christian's mindset be towards how we dress? How does culture and other people's feelings affect how we dress? biblequestions.org

There is an opportunity for the Middle East to be defined “by commerce, not chaos,” President Donald Trump said speaking at the Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday. The president is using the universal language of economic prosperity as he visits Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates this week - reminding the Middle East it can “exports technology, not terrorism.” Trump has finalized multiple deals since the trip began, including “an agreement with Qatar to generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion,” according to the White House. Trump also announced a $600-billion commitment from Saudi Arabia to invest in the U.S., mainly in areas of energy and technology. In addition to his economic strategy, Trump continues to remind the Middle East why Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and to call for a deal between the U.S. and Iran that not only prevents the further development of Iran's nuclear program, but also stops Iran from funding terrorism. Speaking in Qatar on Wednesday, Trump said Iran “must stop sponsoring terror, halt its bloody proxy wars and permanently and verifiably cease pursuit of nuclear weapons. They cannot have a nuclear weapon.” On this week's edition of “Problematic Women,” we breakdown what you need to know about Trump's historic visit to the Middle East, and discuss if there is any hope for change in Iran. Also on today's show, the far left has a fashion issue - they don't want to accidentally be mistaken as MAGA by what they wear. What to do? Dress messy instead, according to The New York Times.

Illinois-based producer Zvrra expands her discography with the four-track EP “Mica,” released on Munich's ever reliable QEONE label. There once was a Zvrra so rare, Who lived on a techno-swept prairie with care, With her Wooden Rain Tool, So bizarre and so cool, That made rhythms beyond all compare! She tumbled her beats like a shower, On dry wood for hour after hour, While butterfly wings Made glistening things, As beetles turned gold by her power! The musical Zvrra would play Her hypnotic percussion all day, In QEONE's domain, Through sunshine and rain, While breakbeats and melodies sway! Oh wonderful, strange little Zvrra, From Illinois, not from Sierra, Her ambient chirps And kaleidoscope blips, Made listeners feel so much clearer! Following her 2020 techno belter “Dress” and 2021's LP “Bizzaroland,” this new collection spans techno, breakbeat, ambient, and electronica across all its 4 tracks. We're premiering the percussive, intricately textured roller “Wooden Rain” https://www.theransomnote.com/music/premieres/premiere-zvrra-wooden-rain-tool-qeone/ @zvrra @qeone

Want to look your best when you step off the plane after a flight? No matter where you're going, you're going to need to be ready to go when you land.5 Things to Consider to Travel in Comfort Without Sacrificing StyleWhether it's a quick two-hour hop to a theme park destination, or a six-hour cross-country or overseas haul, air travel doesn't have to mean sacrificing your style for comfort. It's true. The right outfit can carry you from gate to getaway with no outfit change required. With just a little planning (and a great hoodie), you can stay cozy in-flight and look sharp the moment you land and get on your way.Five Ways to Look Good When You Step Off the PlaneHere are five ways to look good after your next flight, no matter how long you're in the air.1. Choose Comfortable, but Polished, Travel OutfitsLong gone are the days of sweatpants that scream “I gave up.” Today's travel clothes combine comfort with intention. That means a relaxed fits that still look refined. Go for comfortable buy stylish shorts, joggers or stretch denim. Pair that with a graphic tee with personality, and comfortable easy-on shoes or sneakers. You'll not only breeze through security, but you'll still look great and ready-to-go at arrivals.2. Pack Wrinkle-Resistant Fabrics and Easy LayersWrinkle free clothing has come a long way in both performance and style. From recycled poly-cotton blends to tri-knit tops, wrinkle-resistant fabrics are a travel game-changer. They hold their shape during hours of sitting, folding and laying on your carry-on. Layering adds both function and fashion. Start with a breathable t-shirt and top it with a soft hoodie. Add a denim jacket or something similar that will look good slung over your seat or your shoulders.3. Don't Travel Without Your Go-To Hoodie or SweatshirtA soft, mid-weight hoodie is the real MVP of air travel. Need a blanket? Hoodie. Cold on the plane? Hoodie. Want to look effortlessly cool at the baggage claim? Hoodie.Our 1923 graphic sweatshirts and hoodies are made for moments like this—super-soft with a vintage edge that feels broken-in from day one. They bring personality and warmth to your outfit without bulk and will travel with you long after your journey has ended.4. Wear Outfits That Go Straight from Plane to ExploringWhen you land, the last thing you want is to dig through your bag for a whole new look. Your airport outfit should double as your first-day-of-adventure outfit. That's why we love elegant statement graphic tees layered with neutral staples. Throw on a hat and sunglasses and you're instantly ready to hit the streets, hit the parks, check out a café, or snap that all-important “I've arrived” first vacation selfie.5. Feature the Style You Want the World to SeeBuilt for travelers, dreamers and modern nomads, our 1923 Main Street® designs are inspired by classic destinations, eternal memories and that vintage travel poster vibe. It's all about the love of the journey itself. 1923 Main Street t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies aren't just comfy and warm—they tell a story. From airport terminals to cobblestone streets, they're designed to stand out without trying too hard.No matter your destination—or flight time—your style should travel as well as you do. Pack light, layer smart, and don't forget your 1923 Main Street travel-ready gear.Because looking good after a six-hour flight? That's not magic, it's just good planning.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and have a magical day!Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

Sky and The Boo got into a heated argument about two dresses. The Boo claims they are the same but Sky says otherwise
From testosterone tests to party game madness, this episode covers all the essentials. Arend's doctor tells him to lift heavy weights (which Thomas lives for), and Thomas tells a jaw-dropping story of a drunk driver flipping a truck in front of his house—while he was out of town watching it all unfold on his Ring camera. We dive into OK Boomer (thanks for the birthday gift, Thomas) and test our knowledge across generations—turns out Thomas did have a Big Wheel as a kid. But the real highlight? Bad Choices—a game full of outrageous hypotheticals. Would you get pooped on by birds for money? Lose a finger? Dress like a clown and get pummeled weekly? Thomas and Arend weigh the options… and Arend does some very questionable math.
When a young couple moved into their first home with a toddler and another baby on the way, they expected joy, chaos, and sleepless nights—but not because of ghosts. What began as the sound of phantom footsteps quickly unraveled into something far more disturbing. A toddler who couldn't possibly fake sleep. A baby who smiled at something only he could see. A blue blanket that refused to stay put. And, eventually, the terrifying sight of a little girl in a black dress… who didn't belong to anyone living in the house. Years passed. The sightings continued. And when their daughter finally had words to describe her own fear, everything changed.

Acts 12:1-24 About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church. 2 He killed James the brother of John with the sword, 3 and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread. 4 And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him over to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people. 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church. 6 Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison. 7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood next to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his hands. 8 And the angel said to him, “Dress yourself and put on your sandals.” And he did so. And he said to him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.” 9 And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10 When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel left him.11 When Peter came to himself, he said, “Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting.” 12 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. 13 And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer. 14 Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, “You are out of your mind.” But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, “It is his angel!”16 But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed. 17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place. 18 Now when day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what had become of Peter. 19 And after Herod searched for him and did not find him, he examined the sentries and ordered that they should be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent time there. 20 Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon, and they came to him with one accord, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food. 21 On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and delivered an oration to them. 22 And the people were shouting, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!” 23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and breathed his last. 24 But the word of God increased and multiplied.
