Another Victoria’s Secret fashion is in the books
Yet again, I tuned into the livestream of the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. Models, athletes, and influencers walked down the runway, showing off a mixture of fantasy looks along with retail ready ensembles. The big flowing hair was back. The wings were in so many shapes. And the smiles were ever-present. As I watched the…

Add selfie to your skincare routine.
Take a picture of your face. Did you just cringe at the thought of that? And I didn’t even tell you to do it without makeup on. (But definitely do it without makeup.) If the thought of having a camera reveal what you really look like scares you, ask yourself why. You could take the…

We all have our strange obsessions. Mine is trying to figure out at what point I will finally like the smell of this vial of Vanilla 28 by Kayali. It is a fragrance that went viral because of how delicious people thought it smelled. On me it was at best, “meh,” and at it’s worst…

Let’s chat about what I wore for my first fashion week
When I discovered I could get tickets to attend New York Fashion Week shows, the first thing I did was freak about. The second thing was panically ask myself, “What am I going to wear?” I was preoccupied with planning my outfits. I was obsessed with dressing the right way. And then I realized that…

Fashion month is over, but I’m just now ready to talk about it. For the first time, I had the chance to attend shows during New York Fashion Week. I was giddy with excitement the whole time, but I also wanted to come right back here to tell you all about it. I had no…

This is my gripe with “invisible” sunscreens
How do I say this professionally? I’m tired of sunscreen makers lying to me. I know that everyone is searching for an invisible sunscreen. Brands want to deliver on that need.

A Kilian fragrance to reclaim your royalty
I was on a mission to buy something, anything. That is a dangerous position to be in when you’re a luxury fragrance store. But there I was, exploring the Kilian store, on a mission.
