Why You Should Be Saving for Retirement (and How To Actually Do It)
If we conducted a survey on mystifying personal finance tools, my guess is that a Roth IRA would land in the top five. Most of us are semi-comfortable with 401(k)s, but for some reason, the “R” word adds a whole new level of intimidation. It’s no secret that millions of successful women are missing out […]
How to Be the Successful Friend Without Being a Snob
Editor’s Note: This week I’m passing the career advice torch to Career Contessa’s Editorial Director, Kit Warchol. Kit’s an LA girl and knows a thing or two about managing friends, careers, and finances, so she was a natural choice to tell this story when we came up with the concept. Enjoy her fantastic advice! When […]
The Architect and the Collector
When Sharon met Paul Mrozinski in 1977, neither one of them knew that their lives would be changed forever. A small disaster involving a collapsed driveway initially brought them together, but it’s their uncanny ability to work creatively side-by-side that has made them inseparable ever since. Sharon (a designer and antique dealer) and Paul (an architect) […]
What You Should Be Doing During a Non-Election Year
When I interviewed Naomi Wolf via phone, it was less than a week before the terrible events in Charlottesville rocked our nation. We were already looking for ways to use our platform to become more informed and involved citizens, and when Naomi agreed to an interview we jumped at the opportunity. It’s not every day we get to speak […]
Has Millennial Pink Jumped the Shark?
First we called it “blush”, then we called it “Acne Pink” (after the clothing studio nailed the shade with their signature shopping bags). Finally, the internet decided that this shade demanded it’s own hashtag: meet #millennialpink. If design history has taught us anything, it’s that when a single color becomes ubiquitous across fashion, interiors, and graphic design, it’s destined to […]
15 Best Wellness Instagrammers For All Your Fitspiration Needs
A few months ago, I did an Instagram detox. In my continuing efforts to be more mindful about my social media habits, I made it a point to follow only those accounts that fit into one of two categories. Either (a) people I actually care about, i.e. my real-life friends and family, or (b) people […]

What Supplements Should You Really Be Taking?
It’s hard to know who to trust when it comes to the supplements aisle. We all have friends who swear by one thing or another, but (if you’re like me) you don’t want to throw money at vitamins that won’t actually provide benefits, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the seemingly endless options. However, I […]
3 Self-Defense Moves Every Girl Should Know
Editor’s note: A few weeks ago, while walking my dog, I found myself in a confrontational situation that kicked my fight-or-flight response into high gear. The moment I perceived the threat, my sympathetic nervous system began firing off, filling my body with adrenaline, stress, and aggression like I’d never experienced before. I came out of the situation […]
In Love with the Drummer
Beth Herget and Charlotte Cauwe both have creative industry dream jobs: Beth’s a buyer for Madewell and Charlotte’s an off-the-charts cool jewelry designer. So the fact that these two gorgeous and successful creatives are also totally in love seems almost unfair. Together they’ve built a beautiful life in Brooklyn (along with one very cute cat). To say that […]
The App That Saved Our Trip to Italy

A Weekend On The Lake
Half-way through Summer ’17, and it’s already going down in my book as one of the best ever. The reason?

From this unforgettable day at sea with the team to an afternoon on the Mediterranean with family, I’ve […]
