"Best Look Lately" is the third single from Canadian indie rock band Dear Rouge. In a press release, Drew McTaggart said the following about the song: "We all know of our world's endless bombardment of things to better ourselves. We hope to offer a song to people that fights back at this cultural obsession, and at the same time gives you a boost of confidence. We've always found that the people who are most content are the ones we strive to be like, more than someone who is perfect!".
