One of the most underrated places to shop for elevated clothing is Walmart. Seriously! I found half the items in my wardrobe at the retailer. The best part? Everything is super affordable and well-made. If you’re looking to add some timeless, flattering blouses to your wardrobe, this is the place to shop. I scoured through […]

Much like white tee shirts or a classic pair of jeans, floral dresses are a cornerstone wardrobe piece. And you can’t just own one. Having a few floral dresses to rely on makes getting dressed during the summer easier, breezier and simply more fun. With only a few hours left of Amazon Prime Day, it’s […]

Our hair really goes through the ringer in the summer. Pool days are good for the soul, while chlorine wrecks havoc on strands, making them brittle and sometimes causing discoloration. When the weather heats up I know it’s time to grab a nourishing leave-in conditioner. My current go-to? The Marc Anthony Grow Long Leave-In Conditioner. […]

Amazon may have thousands of fashion items on sale for its big Prime Day extravaganza, but if you’re going to stock up on one thing, it should be sundresses. The retailer has completely stepped up their sundress game, offering dozens of stunning styles that are flowy, flattering and perfect for your summer vacation. No need […]

Up until about three years ago I didn’t own a single handbag. Now, I own about 15 — and they’re all from Amazon. The retailer is a treasure trove of luxe-looking purses for dirt cheap, and some of the best styles are steeply discounted for Prime Day. Trust me when I say there’s no better […]

In a world where there are countless celebrity skincare brands, I always wonder if any of the founders actually use the products they produce. One of the only stars who has been completely loyal to her own line is Scarlett Johansson. The 40-year-old actress put so much time and effort into crafting her gentle skincare, […]

Bethenny Frankel is no stranger to product reviews. I can’t open TikTok without the multi-hyphenate trying the latest and greatest skincare. But while she posts tons of rave reviews, it’s not often that she calls a face cream “glorious.” The CosRX Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream earned that high appraisal the moment Frankel […]

Did you know you could get designer labels at Amazon? Yep, the retailer is a treasure trove of luxe brands like Michael Kors, Kate Spade, Cinq a Sept, Levi’s and more. So many of them are steeply discounted for Amazon Prime Day, too. I’m talking about savings of up to 70%. Treat yourself to a […]

If I’ve learned anything from Courteney Cox, it’s that less is more — especially when it comes to beauty. You don’t need to layer on tons of makeup to look or feel beautiful. In fact, you can use just one product as your base and concealer, just like she does. Cutting back on your routine […]

I get so excited when it comes time to break out my summer sandals. I own way too many pairs than I’d like to admit, and, to be honest, I only wear about half of them because the rest cause the worst blisters. Sandals tend to cause more painful sores than other footwear, but through […]

If I could get a weekly facial I totally would. The only thing holding me back? My bank account. I find it so important to prioritize skin health, and all of the serums, creams and SPF can only do so much. To really level up my at-home regimen, I’ve slowly but surely been incorporating high-tech […]

Figuring out what types of clothing work best for your body can enhance your confidence tenfold. I know this from firsthand experience. I never knew how to find the right clothes for my pear-shaped frame until I hired a stylist. She opened my eyes to a world of tops, dresses, skirts and pants that not […]

Kristen Bell is known for plenty of things: Her incredible movies, her humor and her blinding smile. Truly, Bell has one of the most gorgeous grins in all of Hollywood, and she takes proper care of her pearly whites to ensure they dazzle. You won’t catch her using Crest or Colgate. Nope, the actress’ favorite […]

I was a late bloomer when it came to coffee. While my friends and colleagues relied on the caffeine kick to make it through the work day, I staved off any desire to drink it until about a year ago at the ripe age of 27. Coffee has now become a little treat for myself, […]

If you’ve been dreaming of glass skin — you know, a clear, radiant, poreless complexion that resembles a clean pane of glass — you’ll want to add some Korean skincare to your regimen STAT. This flawless skin trend originated in Korea and prioritizes mega hydration to achieve the look. Although you might think you need […]

Ever wonder how celebrity moms are able to bounce back so quickly after giving birth? Some have world-renowned trainers to whip them into shape, but according to Get the Gloss, Kate Middleton relied on the affordable Bio-Oil Skincare Oil before and after giving birth to keep stretch marks at bay. Get the Bio-Oil Skincare Oil […]

I’m a firm believer that clothing should be functional and stylish, and few silhouettes embody that ethos quite like the utility dress. The practical style is becoming super popular thanks to its versatility, durability and — most importantly, pockets. They are also ideal for summer, allowing you to go hands free (those pockets are big) […]

You’ve probably heard that retinol is the gold-standard ingredient in anti-aging skincare, working to diminish fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots in as little as a few weeks. Retinaldehyde is an even stronger form of retinol, and even though it’s more likely to cause irritation, Avéne found a way to keep it gentle yet effective […]

I’ve finally hit wedding season, and the most difficult part is finding the right dress without dishing out hundreds every time an invite rolls around. As a 5’3” petite woman, half the dresses I try on are too long or don’t fit properly. After attending five weddings in the past year, I’ve discovered the silhouettes […]

As soon as the temperature reaches 80 degrees, you’ll only catch me in a midi skirt. Breezy, billowing skirts are just as comfy as pajamas yet look ultra elegant — and they should be a closet staple for everyone. If you haven’t jumped on the midi skirt train I have some good news: You don’t […]

My friends have no idea where I am at any given time. Yep, I’m that person. I catch flights (not feelings), and I’ve racked up more frequent flyer miles in the past year than most people do in their entire lives. All this to say, I’ve become a bit of an expert when it comes […]
