Between a Korean period comedy, a cosmic Pixar adventure, an Amanda Knox drama and a sultry Spanish adaptation, there is plenty to watch while you wait for The Summer I Turned Pretty finale and ride out the last big showers of this monsoon.


This weekend (hopefully) turns out to be dry, sunny, and fashion-filled—with The Wedding Collective—a shopping experience that isn’t just for brides and grooms. Yes, you’ll find lehengas heavy enough to qualify as weight training, but also: Insta-worthy makeovers at the Beauty Pavilion, artisanal dessert brands debuting their next cult laddoo, and enough diamonds to make your eyes water. More on that and what’s hot in your city, below.
