Struggling with hair loss? You’re not alone. The Cleveland Clinic says that over 50% of women in the U.S. experience hair loss at some point in their life due to stress, pregnancy, hormone imbalances and more. That number is staggering considering how taboo it can be to openly talk about hair loss. People are so […]

The quiet luxury aesthetic is a surprisingly attainable fashion trend. Don’t let the name fool you — even though it’s called “luxury,” you don’t have to spend a ton of money to get the look. Forget about the designer names and labels — the key to achieving a quiet luxury vibe is selecting minimalistic items […]

There’s only one item in my closet that scores me endless compliments every single time I wear it: My trusty faux-fur jacket. I didn’t drop major bucks on it, yet it appears extravagant and feels supremely soft. Faux-fur jackets are one of those outerwear items that will never go out of style and instantly elevate […]

Ever wish you could wear sweats to the office? Same. I’m so over wearing stuffy and uncomfortable tailored trousers that dig into my waistline all day long. In this day and age we shouldn’t have to sacrifice comfort for style — and it turns out, we don’t. There are plenty of designs that feel supremely […]

In my opinion, the holiday is the most difficult holiday to dress for. You need to wear something comfy and cute — sweatpants won’t just cut it and restrictive clothing (like jeans) always results in discomfort. The solution? Flowy dresses that look adorable and offer enough room for your stomach to comfortably expand. Simply put, […]

There are two things that change in my life as soon as the temperature drops below 50 degrees: I consistently listen to Taylor Swift‘s Folklore album and refuse to cuddle up in anything other than a cardigan — but not an old one under someone’s bed. As someone who literally online shops for a living, […]

There are a few facts about living in NYC: 1. Rent is going to be ridiculous. 2. You can find a dollar slice of pizza on almost every block. And 3. You will be walking everywhere. New York is one of the most walkable cities in the world, which I love. As long as the sun […]

If you find yourself constantly wearing black, it may be time to reevaluate your closet. It’s not that black is going out of style (it never will), but rich brown hues are reigning supreme this fall. Essentially, velvety chocolate shades and cool coffee hues are taking over as the neutral of the moment. It also […]

I’ve officially hit that age where everyone is getting married. Truly, it seems I get a new Save the Date in the mail each week, and honestly, I’m thrilled! I may be years away from walking down the aisle, but I love celebrating love. Plus, I’ll take any excuse to get all dressed up. There’s […]

If you’ve spent any time on TikTok in the past few months, you’ve probably seen tons of videos about latte makeup. The latest food-centric makeup trend is fall’s It-girl look (look to Hailey Bieber and Zendaya for inspo), and it’s easily emulated. Inspired by a latte’s rich brown hue, the craze requires minimal effort — […]

Sure, loungewear can be worn 365 days of the year, but something about relaxing in a cozy sweatshirt hits different in the fall. Few things compare to the feeling of throwing on your favorite quarter zip and taking a nice long walk in the brisk autumn air. When it comes to sweatshirt styles, I’m drawn […]

Boo! Halloween snuck up on Us this year. With only a few days left until the Halloweekend festivities begin, you may be stressing out about who to be, how to decorate and what treats to give to trick-or-treaters. If you fit into one of those categories (or all of them), take to Amazon immediately. We […]

I’ll let you in on a little secret: I never heard of Zara before moving to New York City (small town probs). Nowadays I’ll browse through the store’s latest fashions, but I rarely buy anything. Why? I know where to shop online to get the Zara look for less money and similar quality — especially […]

By the time fall rolls around, I can almost guarantee that red hair is going to be trending again. This year, copper cowboy, pumpkin spice and chocolate cherry are some of the most popular red hues. (Yes, those are actual monikers for red hair colors, not the latest food fads.) I like to say I’ve […]

Ever wonder how celebrities like Gigi and Bella Hadid, Miranda Kerr and Kate Hudson keep their faces looking snatched? Sure, genetics plays a part, but the real secret may be a handy little device called the NuFace. This FDA-cleared gadget uses low-level electrical currents to lift, tone and contour facial muscles, but the benefits go […]

Haven’t you heard? Workout sets are so last year. Exercise dresses are the new must-have workout outfit, changing fitness fashion once and for all. These cute and trendy frocks are made from the same sweat-wicking materials as your favorite leggings and feature hidden shorts so you can get your sweat on in style while feeling […]

If you stay on top of the fashion trends, you’ll know that metallic shoes are everywhere this season. I, for one, am thrilled — I’m automatically drawn to anything that shimmers. For those who are sparkle-averse, though, the trend can still work for you. When it comes to footwear, consider metallic hues to be an […]

We all know the clean girl beauty aesthetic. If you haven’t heard of it, it’s a trend that has completely taken over TikTok and refers to effortlessly chic and minimal makeup. When it comes to fashion, we think trench coats perfectly encapsulate the clean girl vibe. These elegant layering pieces are classy and feminine, while […]

Emily Ratajkowski has always been one of my favorite models. Not only does she seem so real (if you haven’t read her book My Body, you must!), but she also has the most impeccable style. When I’m in need of upgrading my wardrobe, I scan through her most recent street style looks to gain inspiration. A […]

I love a good self-care moment as much as the next person, but I’ve been relatively disappointed when it comes to at-home face masks. I’ve tested my fair share of face masks over the years — everything from clay and sheet masks, to cream and overnight formulas. You name it — I’ve slathered and smeared […]

I love fall just as much as the next person, but I find it so difficult to dress myself. The weather really throws me for a loop when it’s 40 degrees in the morning and 65 by mid-afternoon. More often than not, I bundle up and am left feeling like a sweaty mess by lunchtime. […]
