Pop stars are dressing like retired orthodontists named Gary, and honestly, our bank accounts simply cannot cope with the polo price tags.

Honey, put down the glitter and pick up a visor because the mid-life crisis aesthetic is officially the only way to dress this season. Taylor Swift has decided that looking like she owns a fleet of golf carts is the ultimate power move, and honestly, we’re just one argyle sweater away from declaring her the Queen of the Back Nine. This isn’t your Grandpa’s Sunday attire—unless your Grandpa is a multi-platinum global icon with a penchant for high-waisted pleated skirts. Following in her divot-heavy footsteps are Kendall Jenner and Keke Palmer, who are treating the country club dress code like it’s the Met Gala for people who enjoy expensive lawn care. We’re talking collars so crisp they could cut glass and enough cable-knit to keep a small village warm during a polar vortex. If you aren't dressing like you're about to lose a very expensive lawsuit over a property line dispute, are you even trying? The vibes are very 'I have a timeshare in the Hamptons and I’m disappointed in my son's grades.' It’s the kind of fashion that demands you hold a chilled glass of Arnold Palmer while judging someone’s swing from a distance. So, grab your overpriced socks and prepare to look like you’ve never actually touched a golf ball in your life, because 'Golfcore' is the only way to survive the summer heat without losing your status.
