    • We're in to the second half of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's whirlwind 16-day tour of the Oceania region. After Tuesday's welcome and state dinner in Fiji, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continued their visit to the island nation on Wednesday. In the morning, Harry laid a wreath on at the Fiji War Memorial, then the royal couple visited the University of the South Pacific. While there Harry and Meghan both said a few words before heading off for solo engagements. Harry traveled to the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park, while Meghan enjoyed tea at the British High Commissioner’s Residence and visited the Suva market.

    • While it's safe to say that the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle frenzy has been on full blast since their relationship went public last year, the pair is now giving royal fans further reason to obsess. From announcing their pregnancy to continuing to showcase their covetable PDA, our infatuation with the loved-up couple has reached new heights. And, even with a royal baby on the way, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have shown no signs of slowing down, as evidenced by their current 16-day official visit to Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and New Zealand and attendance at the Invictus Games—the annual international sporting event for wounded military personnel and veterans that Prince Harry founded back in 2014. In honor of the expecting parents' jam-packed trip down under, we compiled Meghan and Harry's most fangirl-worthy photos over the course of their 16-day trip. From hand-holding to umbrella-holding, brace yourselves for an adorable overload. Plus, you'll get a sneak peek of the future royal mother's maternity style, which is unsurprisingly chic. So, without further ado, prepare for 22 heart-melting, ovary-exploding photos of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex during their overseas visit.

  • Mere moments after Prince Charles was born, he was whisked away to be viewed by the royal courtiers who had served his grandfather, King George VI (Elizabeth's II's father). This was no ordinary newborn: this was Britain's next king. Unlike Queen Elizabeth II, who did not become heir to the throne until she was ten (that was when her uncle, Prince Edward VIII, abdicated, changing the line of succession forever), Charles was immediately under the public's intense gaze, with Elizabeth's mothering under intense scrutiny. Here's why Queen Elizabeth isn't planning on abdicating the throne.

    Some dog owners complain about their pooches being too loud or hyper, but a family in Arizona returned a dog to the shelter for being too good. A good boy named Binx was taken back to the Arizona Animal Welfare League and SPCA because the people who adopted him claimed he was too perfect. Within 48 hours, Binx was back at the shelter with a note that said he is potty trained, good with kids, fun to play with but just not enough of a challenge....

  • If you have even a tiny bit of hoarder in you, you likely find it really hard to part with the piles and piles of clothes, shoes, and accessories hiding in your closet. Some reasons are legit and are bound up in the fears and insecurities about what it means to give up something that you used to identify so strongly with. Other reasons are just crazy, because, no — despite Justin Bobby (all hail the return of The Hills) making them look oh so good, baggy hipster beanies are never coming back in style. Of course, for those of you for whom some of these items are still integral to your wardrobe, we salute you (after all, there's nothing more stylish than a woman who loves and owns her style). But for the rest of you, we're about to make things really, really easy. We ID'd 12 items that almost all of us probably own, but most haven't (or shouldn't have) worn in ages, and will not want to wear again — donate these space wasters, reclaim your closet, and rest happy knowing that you couldn't accidentally dress like an extra on Laguna Beach, even if you tried. At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team.

Though the monument was abandoned and closed to the public in 1989, sneaky explorers continue to venture in to gaze at the otherworldly dome.

  • Here's Why We Celebrate Halloween

    The history of Halloween goes all the way back to a pagan festival called Samhain. The word "Halloween" comes from"All Hallows' Eve" and means "hallowed evening." Hundreds of years ago, people dressed up as saints and went door to door, which is the origin of Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating. Although it's fun to dress in disguise and collect treats, there's much more to Halloween than many realize. The history of the holiday goes back...

  • 'The most common question I get is some variation on 'am I normal?'' says Cyndi Darnell, a sex and relationship therapist based in New York City. 'Sex is under-taught, so most of us gleaned what we know from well-meaning friends and pop culture. As a result, we're left to fill in the blanks ourselves and can feel isolated. People feel afraid to ask for help or worse still, do not know who to ask!' Darnell wants to reassure you: Whether a person is wondering about their biology (e.g. the size, shape, placement, scent, etc. of body parts), their sexual abilities, or the kinds of activities they enjoy, 'someone else out there has had the exact same feeling.' Sex therapist Megan Fleming, PhD wholeheartedly agrees and adds, 'There is such a range of sexual interests and behaviors that no matter how 'strange' or uncommon, they are 'normal' as long as it's consensual and pleasurable for both partners.'

  • Our culture is constantly encouraging contact — a packed social life, a busy work life, joining clubs and groups for your résumé… It seems like being extremely busy has become aspirational, something that’s applauded rather than looked at with skepticism. But there are some things about this mindset that can be harmful.When you’re so overcommitted you hardly have time to get enough sleep (which is also super-important for your health), you rarely get to spend any time alone. We mean, like, really alone — without checking your email, without being on an instant messaging system, and without sharing everything on social media.With all the focus on prioritizing busy-ness and achievement, the similarly important benefits to spending time alone get thrown to the wayside. While too much solitude can make you go crazy, too little solitude may actually do the same.There’s a reason great authors and artists have dedicated days — sometimes months — of their lives to complete solitude. Mozart, Kafka, Picasso. All these wildly different artists had one thing in common: They made a point to spend time working on their projects alone. They were probably on to something. Here are some unexpected, but very real, benefits of spending time alone.

  • Being able to actually see furniture and wall art in a space before bringing them home from the store or hitting "confirm order" online would save so much time. Though some stores have cool gadgets to make it a bit easier for you (like Walmart's shop the room tool), nothing's foolproof. So being able to bring things back and/or exchange them for something else is absolutely necessary. Thankfully, most of your favorite home stores have some flexible return policies. To pull one out of the bunch, IKEA's is quite simply a dream...and Target's isn't half bad either. Needless to say, you don't have to worry so much the next time you bring home a rug that's too small for your room or a chair that looks too bulky next to your fiddle leaf fig tree. Save yourself the headache and pin the below for your future reference.
