Whats in?
Quick-drying fabrics: 
Choose polyester blends, lightweight rayon, nylon and anti-crease georgette for everyday office wear.(Pic courtesy/mlada)Log on to: mlada.in
Tailored silhouettes: Opt for tailored culottes, ankle-length cropped trousers or anti-crease midi shirt dresses. These styles keep hems away from puddles while keeping your outfit office-ready.Log on to: zilo.one]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jul/rainwear3.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Kendall Jenner in Chelsea boots.
Practical accessories: Complete your outfit with waterproof loafers or Chelsea boots and a waterproof tote bag. These keep you comfortable during commute while protecting your belongings from the rain.(PIC COURTESY@kendalljenner)Log on to: thecaistore.com
Whats out?
Full-length or wide-leg/baggy trousers: Floor-grazing trousers are likely to collect mud, slush and rainwater while walking outdoors. Shorter hemlines are far more practical during the rainy season.
Stiff formal blazers: Traditional blazers can feel hot and restrictive in humid weather. They also become uncomfortable when moving between the outdoors and air-conditioned offices.
Pale colours and bold tropical prints: Light pastel shades can become translucent when wet and show water marks easily. Loud tropical prints may appear too casual for a professional workplace, in general.

Whats out?
Leather footwear and accessories: Leather doesnt pair well with frequent exposure to rain. Moisture can damage the material, cause stains, and reduce its lifespan.
Denim jeans: 
The heavy fabric absorbs water, and takes a long time to dry; itll leave you praying you dont get caught in the drizzles.
Knitwear, suede, or silk: 
These materials dry slowly, and can lose their shape or texture in humid weather.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jul/rainwear7.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Hair care
Wet conditions can quickly turn your sleek and sharp hairstyle into a scruffy, mess, the stylist warns.
Keep your hair short during the monsoon. It is easier to manage, dries much faster, and is less likely to feel itchy or uncomfortable when wet
Avoid using heavy styling products like waxes or thick pomades. They weigh the hair down, cause buildup, and irritate the scalp for some people. Choose lightweight, water-based products if you need some hold.

On a relatively dry day, experiment with neutral tones like grey, brown, beige, and olive. These colours are versatile, and work exceptionally well in a corporate setting.

theyre practical men who have no emotions. Well, thats a big fat lie! Dads are softies, who melt quicker than ice. Moreover, theyre old-school softies. This year, write him a letter, like they did in his era (probably the 1800s, lol). I know its been a while since you wrote one, but this is the time to use those informal letter-writing skills you learnt in school. You can even make a card for him like we did when we were kids. Head to your nearest post office, and voila! Over the years, my dad and I have exchanged many letters and we preserve all of them. Believe me, this one really pulls at their heartstrings]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/FathersDay2026giftideasphotos.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[A surprise packageThe most basic gift is of course flowers and a cake. Last year, I was super excited to send these to my dad. In the afternoon, I got the notification: Items delivered. I thought my father would call me all excited and thank me for the gift. Instead, I heard, Why are you wasting money on flowers? They go bad within two days. Please learn how to spend your money better. Sigh. Going forward, my recommendation would be to send something he might actually use. My fathers a big reader. So, books it is this year]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/FathersDay2026movienights.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Movie night inDo you know that feeling when you watch a movie and you think, Oh, my dad would love this, but you just cant watch it with him because he isnt there? This year when I went to watch Project Hail Mary, I cried like a baby. My father showed me The Martian (2015) when I was 11 years old. Before that, he showed me The Terminator (1984) when I was way too young to watch it. Though it left me permanently scared of the world ending, it also became food for thought for many, many conversations.
It was a way for a 42-year-old and an 11-year-old to have a conversation about how the world works and how it can be saved, which are not very popular topics of conversation for 11-year-olds. And yet, he was able to instill very important values in me.
Over the years, we have nurtured a thirst for sci-fi films which is only relinquished when we watch them together. So, Ive decided that we will watch Project Hail Mary together, virtually this year. You can pick your favourite, and watch it together.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/FathersDay2026giftideasfortoday.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Fund a wardrobe interventionThe best Fathers Day gift? Book a flight ticket and go see him. Nothing beats that. But if thats not possible, heres the next best thing: let your dad go shopping and pick up the bill. Dads somehow wear the same five shirts for a decade and call it fashion. Consider this less of a gift and more of a public service. A new shirt, a pair of trousers, maybe even shoes if youre feeling generous. He gets new clothes, and you get to stop wondering what on earth hes wearing these days]]></image:caption><image:keyword><![CDATA[Sunday mid-day News, Sunday mid-day Trends, Sunday mid-day Updates, Latest Sunday mid-day Updates, Sunday mid-day, Trending, Father's Day 2026, Father's Day 2026 guide, Father's Day 2026 gift guide]]></image:keyword></image:image></url><url><loc><![CDATA[https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/bollywood-news/photo/father-day-2026-iconic-on-screen-dads-of-bollywood-that-are-unmissable-111701]]></loc><image:image><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/imgi_135_59df562820631.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Aamir Khan in Dangal (2016)

Revolved triangle or Parivrtta Trikonasana seems to have all but disappeared from most vinyasa flow classes.

Purvottanasana, or the eastern pose, is a backbend or an upward plank, which is one of the most beautiful ways to stretch the entire front body, from the chest to the tops of the feet!

The benefits of the asana are that it strengthens the upper body, improves posture and tones the legs and hips

Vasisthasana or the side plank pose strengthens the upper body like the Purvottanasana, but it focuses more on the side body, particularly the serratus anterior along the side ribs, the oblique abdominals and the quadratus lumborum on the side waist, and the gluteus medius on the lateral hip

He explains that while the dish is not traditionally Japanese, it represents the global evolution of sushi and appeals strongly to Indian tastes because of its combination of rich, creamy textures and bold flavours. "While the Avocado Cream Cheese Maki isn`t what youd find in a traditional, centuries-old Tokyo sushi den, it represents the brilliant Western evolution of sushi that conquered the world. By taking inspiration from global adaptations like the California roll, this dish strikes a perfect chord with the Indian palate. We naturally love a contrast of rich and creamy textures like paneer and vibrant finishes; the buttery smoothness of ripe avocados combined with indulgent cream cheese creates a comforting bite. When paired with the sharp kick of wasabi and the tang of pickled ginger, it satisfies that quintessential craving for a dish that is simultaneously rich, tang, and sharp, all rolled into one elegant, globally loved masterpiece," Sheong said. ]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/SupaSanfoodsushirecipe.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Ume Kyuri HososmakiAt Supa San, the chef says you can make a delicious Ume Kyuri Hososmaki.
