November 06, 2018 at 02:30PM If you instantly had Harry-level googly eyes the second you saw the custom reception gown Stella McCartney made for Meghan Markle to wear after the royal wedding, you’re not alone. The entire world wanted to get their hands on it—and, unfortunately, that’s kind of impossible considering the designer is only making 46… Continue Reading →

February 05, 2019 at 10:07AM by CWC As a typical New Yorker with a strong desire to expand her closet, but the sinking reality that my apartment space just won’t allow for it (or my budget for that matter), there’s one question that, in one way or another, I’ve been asking myself a lot thus… Continue Reading →

January 17, 2019 at 02:33PM by CWC I have a pile of Instax snapshots I pull out when I’m down—little reference cards to remind me, “You are loved.” When you’re depressed, it’s a message that can easily get muffled in the mental din of unbearable negativity. So color me intrigued by a new study from… Continue Reading →

January 11, 2019 at 05:30AM by CWC I once went on a date with a guy who showed up wearing jeans and a T-shirt. Totally normal outfit, except the tee was actually just functional workout gear being taken on a fun night out, and the slip-on Vans rounding out his #lewk were threadbare at best….

January 08, 2019 at 04:54AM How great would it be if doctors actually prescribed retail therapy when something’s ailing us? Alas, Western medicine doesn’t consider fashion to be a valid form of treatment. (For proof, just look at the potato sack that is a hospital gown.) But when it comes to Ayurveda—a 5,000-year-old holistic healing… Continue Reading →

December 23, 2018 at 09:02AM Any social outing that requires changing out of my cozy loungewear is a chore during the winter. It’s so cold and I find it hard to look cute or even just presentable when all I want to do is swathe myself in layers of chenille. But this year I’ve found a… Continue Reading →

December 20, 2018 at 10:37AM Did you see those boots? On Wednesday, with glittery thigh-high Balenciaga boots peeking out of her full-length gown, former first lady Michelle Obama brought some serious holiday sparkle to the stage at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center—and set the internet ablaze. (Astrologer and writer Chani Nicholas pointed out that Obama, a Capricorn, wore… Continue Reading →

December 19, 2018 at 01:45PM It was around mid-September when I had to accept that bare-leg season was officially over (hello, patterned tights). Mother Nature charmed me into fall with her beautiful foliage, helping to ease the pain of packing away my beloved sandals until next year. I started hearing words like flannel, shearling, chenille,… Continue Reading →

December 14, 2018 at 03:00AM The idea of a “dad sneaker” has always been a little lost on me, personally. When I think back to what my father stomped around in during my childhood, it wasn’t a chunky, white trainer—more often than not, he was clad in some kind of hiking boot. (As were many… Continue Reading →

November 25, 2018 at 01:00AM I remember my first foray into body shimmer. It was seventh grade, and I was obsessed with Victoria’s Secret Love Spell glitter body lotion. Like, I slathered it over my entire body—and it was subtle neither in looks nor smell. I would also leave a trail of shimmer in my… Continue Reading →

November 13, 2018 at 11:15AM If Thanksgiving doesn’t feel complete to you without a plate full of turkey, mashed potatoes, and green bean casserole, you’re in good company: a whopping 46 million turkeys are eaten to celebrate the holiday each year. But if you were looking for an excuse to start a new, bird-free tradition, you might… Continue Reading →

November 08, 2018 at 08:25AM My friends and I have a running joke that between the months of June and October, we stay far, far away from the dermatologist’s office. Because here’s the truth: Despite being a beauty editor who knows best sun-care practices by heart, I love the beach…and the pool. And while my… Continue Reading →

October 31, 2018 at 01:24PM Gas is like the common cold of gut afflictions: It’s pretty much impossible to avoid if you’re a human. And since it’s so ubiqutious, it can feel kind of embarrassing if you’re hit with a particularly severe case—you know, the kind that results in can’t-move, can’t-breathe, can’t-speak-in-full-sentences pain—and you end up… Continue Reading →
