Prime Day has officially dethroned Black Friday as the best time to purchase big ticket items like electronics and furniture. This year, the annual two-day holiday (yep, it’s definitely a holiday to Us) takes place on July 16th and 17th. I know people who are already fiending over what flat screen and couch to buy, […]

Everyone knows the Hamptons are the ultimate summer vacation destination for the rich and famous. Along with the stunning views, delicious seafood and multimillion-dollar compounds, the land out east is also known for its fashion. Effortless and breezy, the style is easy to replicate, even when you’re on a tight budget. Get ready to live […]

As a redhead, I take sun protection very seriously. I’m the type of person who will apply sunscreen before going out at night. (Is that excessive? Yes, but my foundation has SPF built in . . . and when you’re as pale as me, you can never be too safe!) For my recent vacation to […]

Over the past few months I’ve had three friends drop everything and move to London. They’ve quickly become Londoners in their own right, and I can’t help but notice how their style game went up a few notches. When it comes to London fashion, one of my friends describes it as classic prep — like […]

Few things are as beautiful as watching your child experience their first summer. There are endless smiles, lots of pool time and never-ending high-pitched giggles. This is a time that you’ll remember forever, and while I’m sure you’re trying to etch these memories into your mind, I hope you’re also treating yourself and making sure […]

In an era when Ozempic is reigning as the weight loss drug of choice, you may be wondering if there are other, more natural ways to shed a few extra pounds. Luckily, there are, especially if your main concern is bloating. We’ve been major fans of Nouri’s bloat-busting probiotic for the way it quickly and […]

Summer is the perfect opportunity to add a bit of color into your life. Think about it. There are certain hues that instantly spark joy — and this year you’ll be seeing sunny butter yellow everywhere. I’ll be the first to admit that yellow isn’t the easiest color to wear, but you can ease your […]

Summer is heating up . . . and so are the new beauty launches! This year has been filled with fresh innovation, though June may be filled with the most impressive offerings to date. This month, we can’t get enough of a super affordable mascara, an foolproof at-home blowout tool, and some fun-to-use SPF saviors. […]

I may be 27 years old, but I only started carrying purses about two years ago. I was never a purse girl — every shoulder bag I tried slipped off which really annoyed, and realistically, I only ever carried my keys and some lip gloss, which I’d plop into one of my friends purses. It […]

Retinol may be the gold standard when it comes to anti-aging, but it also gets a bad rap for causing irritation. Use too strong of a retinoid and your skin can get red, dry and flakey virtually overnight. Those with sensitive and dry skin have the toughest time finding retinol options that are mild enough […]

There’s a major debate going on about eye creams and whether or not they’re actually a necessity in your skincare routine. What isn’t debatable, though, is the need for sunscreen on your delicate eye area. The skin around your eyes is the thinnest on your entire body, and it’s so easy to forget to apply SPF […]

I don’t know about anyone else, but once the temperatures hit 70 degrees, my social calendar is packed to the brim. It’s like the warm weather makes everyone come out of hibernation! That said, the more my plans pile up, the less I have to wear. I can’t even begin to describe how often I […]

The Kardashians have been in the limelight so long that you’d think we’d know all of their beauty secrets by now.

The summer solstice has arrived, ushering longer days, carefree vibes and the dog days of summer. What better way to welcome in the new season than with the most restorative sleep of your life? (Yes, really!) That’s exactly what Lunya and Heretic want to give you this summer. The sleepwear brand teamed up with the […]

I remember when highlighter first became incredibly popular in 2016. No makeup look of mine was complete without dusting a glittery powder along my cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose and right on top of my cupid’s bow. My makeup tastes have changed quite a bit since then, and while I often look back […]

Ahhhh tanning beds . . . remember when they were all the rage? I, for one, never visited one (as a fair-skinned redhead, there was no chance that I would gain any sort of color), though in high school, going to the tanning salon was a weekly ritual for my friends. As we got closer […]

I have to admit I’m a trend follower, especially when it comes to footwear. However, rather than looking at the latest fashion blogs, I go straight to the stars to see what shoes celebrities are stomping around in. Almost every summer I expect a new sandal style to be everywhere, but this year I’m seeing […]

Carrie Bradshaw may have pranced around in Manolo Blahniks throughout the early 2000s, but she’s officially traded in the stilettos for much comfier Dr. Scholl’s footwear. In fact, Carrie has even gotten Charlotte on the Dr. Scholl’s train too! Both Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis have been spotted wearing multiple sandal styles from the […]

Chances are you’ve probably heard of Chappell Roan — and if you haven’t . . . it’s time to listen to her music stat. The 26-year-old singer is quickly rising the ranks to become one of the top pop stars of the decade. Her captivating synth-pop songs immediately make you want to dance, and they’re […]

Luscious, healthy hair takes time to grow, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add a few things to your routine that can enhance the process. We’ve all heard of hair growth supplements, serums, scalp massagers and even red light therapy to help it grow thicker and longer, but an easy shampoo and conditioner swap can […]
