HOME: INTERIOR DESIGN TRENDS IN 2026
In 2026, interiors are officially loosening up. The trend is toward homes that feel warm, layered, and genuinely lived in—think darker woods, vintage or reclaimed pieces, unfussy kitchens made up of individual furniture, and tactile touches like tapestries and textiles. Less “perfect showroom,” more personality, comfort, and spaces that actually reflect how you live.
WELLNESS: PRE WORKOUT
Hydration and the right pre-workout drink can seriously boost how you feel and perform at the gym, even if you skip a full meal beforehand. The pros stick with the fact that sipping things such as coffee for a caffeine kick, maple water for a quick sugar boost, green juice for light hydration, or a protein-packed shake at least 30 minutes before you start can seriously help with energy, endurance, and recovery.
BEAUTY: WHAT’S TRENDING IN AESTHETICS
Aesthetic trends are moving away from overfilled, obvious tweaks and toward subtle changes that age well AKA refinement over transformation. The Ozempic era has people looking to gently sculpt what’s left (hello, targeted lipo) while also investing in long-game treatments like regenerative skincare, next-gen lasers, and more conservative surgeries that preserve natural anatomy.

A newlywed couple, Tricia + Ethan, thinks they've found their dream home when they visit the remote manor that once belonged to Dr. Adrienne Hale, a renowned psychiatrist who vanished without a trace years ago. But when a violent winter storm traps them at the estate, the house begins to lose its appeal. Tricia stumbles on a collection of audio transcripts from Dr. Hale's sessions with patients & as she listens, she learns about the terrifying chain of events leading up to the doctor's mysterious disappearance.
