8 Daytime Moisturizers to Achieve #NoMakeupSelfie Goals

Gone are the days when the only thing we expect out of our daytime moisturizer is, well, moisture.

Check. Major […]

10 Best Straw Hats to Wear This Spring

Adding to my ever-growing collection of straw hats is one of my favorite things to do in early spring, when all the fashion lines start revealing their new designs for summer.  (Someday I want to have an entry hall covered in hats, but for now I’m storing them in the back of my closet.) This year’s […]

Depending on one’s skin type, there are hundreds of products to cleanse, exfoliate, tone, treat and moisturize the complexion. And, of course, the variation […]

The Rock and Roll Tousled Bob

“I think everyone’s familiar with the ‘lob’ at this point,” says stylist Erica Rae. “So what makes it fresh now is the way it’s styled. You can wear it sleek and straight, but I love how it looks when it’s a bit tousled. So many girls are trying to achieve these waves with a flat iron. […]

The Men’s Fragrances We Secretly Want for Ourselves

Who says every woman wants to smell like a vanilla cupcake? Ok, I’m being cheeky here, but really: sometimes I feel that if I have to smell one more achingly sweet scented product, I’m going to lose it.

How to get Victoria’s Secret Angel Hair

I’m not kidding when I say that not a day goes by in this office where we don’t end up talking about our production assistant, Laura’s hair. We talk about it Every. Single. Day. We like to call it “Victoria’s Secret Angel Hair” because it looks so much like the signature waves we see every […]
