It's safe to say her avant-garde ensemble made her the host with the most — and provided one of the most memorable style moments of the year.

Here's everything you need to copy Rihanna's memorable Met Gala outfit in all its glory.

Less than a year after giving birth to twins, Beyoncé Knowles delivered a historic performance at Coachella. It was a triumphant moment for the singer, whose pregnancy previously forced her to cancel her performance at the music festival in 2017.

When she finally took the stage in a collegiate Balmain outfit and iridescent fringe boots, among many other ensembles, Beyoncé made history as the first black woman to headline Coachella. Featuring appearances by JAY-Z and Destiny's Child, the hour-long production was a damn good show, too.

Google delighted and offended many with the release of its Arts & Culture app earlier this year. The app matches a user's selfie to a similar work of art in Google's database . . . with varying degrees of success.

For example, Kristen Bell doesn't exactly bear a striking resemblance to 19th-century German conductor August Manns, but the app sure seemed to think so. Several other celebrities ended up sharing their museum-residing doppelgängers, including Kate Hudson, Kumail Nanjiani, and more. Though the initial excitement has since died down, the app spawned a fun social media moment and taught everyone a little bit more about art history.

Since then, Mason has appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, attended the Billboard Music Awards, and hung out with Justin Bieber at Coachella shortly after taking the stage with DJ Whethan. Not bad for a quick trip to Walmart, right?

Here's how to dress up like Mason Ramsey this Halloween — yodeling not included.

For seemingly inexplicable reasons, the pool float became a must-have this Summer. It may have been because of the recent influx of Instagram-friendly pool float brand — a very 2018 sentence if we've ever seen one — or perhaps families were seeking an affordable means of relaxation and escapism. Or, it could have had something to do with that unicorn float that fits six people.

In May, POPSUGAR spotted the giant Unicorn Party Bird Island ($250) pool float, which quickly went viral and inspired an array of other over-the-top aquatic accessories, like this inevitable rosé pool float, Little Mermaid floats, and several food floats. Perhaps we all just took a little too literally when It's Pennywise told us last year, "We all float down here."
