Not to toot my own horn, but I’ve become a pro at applying false eyelashes over the years. Just because I’m good at it doesn’t mean I actually enjoy the process, though. I always have to hype myself up before attempting to place fresh fringe right along my lash line. And, without fail, it ends […]

It’s rough being a mom sometimes . . . only moms would understand. While you can’t always control your kids (especially their tantrums), one thing you can control is your style. When you look good, you feel good; and sometimes, wearing a great pair of Good American jeans, a perfectly tailored jacket, or some simple […]

New York Fashion Week has come and gone, and all of the clothes that graced the runway were absolutely breathtaking. Throughout the 2025 shows, however, we noticed a few major trends that are sure to shape the year ahead. But which ones are actually worth giving a try? We tapped professional stylists to give you […]

Newsflash! You no longer need an Instagram filter to blur your complexion — beauty brands have spent the past few years cooking up products that can do that in real life! These innovations are designed to make your skin look as airbrushed as it would with your favorite photo editing app. I’ve seen blurring powders, […]

There’s an interesting skincare conundrum that’s affecting every single generation. Have you ever heard of tech neck? Well, if not, you might be surprised to learn that you’re probably dealing with it right now. You know how you angle your head down to look at your electronics? The resulting lines on the front of your […]

Kendrick Lamar‘s Super Bowl Halftime Show was iconic. Name another performer who had the whole stadium singing along at the top of their lungs? I’ll wait. While I was dancing along to his songs, I was totally mesmerized by his jeans. The rapper wore a pair of flares — Celine Flared Surf Jeans to be […]

I’ve tried dozens of vitamin C serums throughout my career, yet one has stood out amongst the rest: The Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum. Everything about this option is incredible, from the texture to its effectiveness to the glowing results. However, I’m not here to sing the praises of my holy […]

As an international superstar, Cynthia Erivo is constantly traveling for work. Wicked was filmed in the United Kingdom, and this past fall she was on a whirlwind press tour around the world in support of the film. Going from a plane, to a bus, to a train, to a new hotel room in different timezones can […]

Our skin starts to sag with age, and one of the most common places this occurs is our eyes — especially if they’re naturally hooded or downturned. While this is normal, it can also be a bit annoying. When your eyes droop, you can start to look tired. For years, one of the only solutions […]

Aritzia is home to the latest and greatest fashion finds, but sometimes it hurts my wallet to shop there. Luckily, I found nearly identical items at Amazon for a fraction of the cost. My motto is: if you can get basically the same item for significantly less, why would you spend extra money? From wedding […]

No matter how often I travel, creating a stylish yet comfortable airport outfit feels like a losing game. Most of the sets I own look too casual to be considered fashionable, but wearing anything other than sweats or leggings results in an uncomfortable flight. What’s a girl to do? In an effort to level up […]

The 2025 Grammy Awards aired on Sunday night, and it was packed with show-stopping performances, big wins and incredible beauty looks. Each nominee and performer sparkled on stage thanks to the help of their glam squads, but the most surprising part was that many of the products they used are decently affordable! Each formula and […]

When the temperatures dip below freezing, you probably do everything you can to keep warm. I mean, most normal people would. Tracee Ellis Ross isn’t your average human, though. Even in the throes of winter, the actress embraces the chill with the 111Skin Cryo Facial Mask. This cryo mask isn’t as intense as plunging into […]

I always thought I had to choose between comfort and style while traveling, but that’s simply not the case! There are plenty of clothing items — tops, pants, coordinating sets and more — that won’t dig in, tug or make you feel uncomfortable on long trips, and as an added bonus, they look expensive, too […]

In honor of The Kardashians season six premiering on Hulu this week, I can’t help but dish on one of their most recent product launches. I have to give it to them: They know how to make perfume. Kim Kardashian has launched plenty of potions since 2009, and recently, Khloé Kardashian and Kylie Jenner debuted their […]

The winter is a time to rest, relax and be cozy. I try to hibernate between December and March, but for those rare moments that I do make an appearance in public, it’s an absolute necessity to remain comfy. Gwyneth Paltrow understands what I mean. The wellness mogul stays snug during the winter by wearing oversized […]

I hate the winter. Not just because of the frigid temperatures, but also because I struggle with putting together fashionable outfits. For me, this becomes the season of sweatsuits and nothing else. In an effort to teach myself how to layer, I’ve made it my mission to find solid basics that will help me get […]

I may be a beauty expert, but I’ve never been able to confidently apply lip liner. Every time I try, my lips end up looking clownish and harsh rather than full and defined. I couldn’t figure out if this was because of the formulas I was using or if I was just inept at outlining […]

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been spending the dreary winter months dreaming of a European vacation. And, if you’re even more like me, you booked a flight to Paris on a whim. I still have two months before I say ‘au revoir’ to the U.S. for two weeks, so until then, I’ll be planning […]

Valentine’s Day and the color red go hand in hand, but this year, there’s one very specific shade you should be wearing: Cherry red! The rich, vibrant hue has been trending in the makeup world (think deep red lips, bright red flushes, and surprising cherry eyeliner) and it definitely translates to fashion. Plus, wearing red […]

If you’ve ever wished that it was socially acceptable to wear lounge sets out in public, I’ve got news for you: It 100% is. Lounge sets have gotten a major upgrade over the years and have become a total fashion statement. Take it from me — there’s no need to sacrifice comfort for fashion when […]
