Okay, so Nike just dropped a new Dunk Low, and I’m seriously loving it! They’re calling it the “Snake/Soft Pearl” colorway, and it’s a really cool mix of simple and fancy. The base of the shoe is a really clean, off-white color – like a subtle pearl and cream – which lets this amazing snakeskin pattern really pop. It wraps around the sides and heel, and it’s this rich, mossy brown that just looks so high-end. It takes the classic Dunk look and gives it this really cool, luxurious vibe – it’s definitely a step up from your average sneaker, blending that sporty feel with a really stylish, street-ready look. I think they absolutely nailed it!

On July 21, 2026, France’s Parliament passed a law restricting social media access for children under 15, making it the first country in the European Union to do so. The new rules will be put into place gradually, starting September 1, 2026. By January 1, 2027, all profiles belonging to users under 15 will need to be removed. President Emmanuel Macron supports this law as a way to improve young people’s mental wellbeing, and it also expands an existing ban on mobile phones in schools. A digital regulatory body called ARCOM will be responsible for making sure the rules are followed.
