EDITOR'S NOTE

Even in the thick of summer, I gravitate towards wearing pants. I’ve started to get creative in my search for the best pairs (I have a story coming soon), so like the majority of the internet, I’ve turned to Gap. The heritage brand has been absolutely killing it lately, and many styles look eerily similar to Leset and Donni. Here are the ones I’ve been loving:

These twill utility pants. They have the perfect drape and I love the reinforced knee panels. I’ve found that they’ve been great for travel days, too.
Some double-knee barrel pants. These are the most dupe-like because they’re made of the same cotton poplin that seems to be going viral right now. Keep a close watch because they’re going in and out of stock.
These bubble joggers. Think of these as somewhere in between a jogger and a trouser.

Scent Theory Hand Sanitizer

It turns out Walmart has Touchland dupes.

While our editor can admit that she loves Touchland’s compact hand sanitizing sprays, at the end of the day, it really is just a basic hand sanitizer with luxe packaging. So if the thought of spending $10 on a pocket spray is a stretch, may we direct you to Walmart’s $3 option? The packaging and fine mist are nearly identical. While the scent selection isn’t as vast as Touchland, there are fun seasonal options to choose from.

Today’s Must-Haves

Here are three of the hottest products on the internet this week:
