Would you wear… toothpaste? 🪥

A new fashion trend called “toothpaste dressing” is all about mint greens, icy blues and ultra fresh tones inspired by… yes, toothpaste.
Spotted on runways and red carpets, it shows how fashion is becoming more playful, emotional and unexpected.
Because today, fashion is not just about looking good it is about being memorable.

Magic 1 is a reminder that many of today’s production standards were once true innovations.

The United States has introduced a 10% global import tariff, now in effect after a recent Supreme Court ruling, with plans to raise it to 15% “where appropriate” in the coming months 🌍📈. The tariff can stay for up to 150 days without Congressional approval, and major partners like the EU and Japan are watching how global trade adapts.

How do you see this affecting international trade? 💡

The court heard arguments last year on whether Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) when imposing tariffs on goods from virtually every US trading partner.
