  • Kodiak Cakes, their new campaign, and some thoughts on brand image

    This is what just happened to me. I was casually watching a YouTube video, when an ad started playing. I thought, “Wait, is that Zac Efron?” Then I noticed the ad was for a brand raising money for bear population protection. It was Kodiak Camp. Next thing I knew, I was clicking on the site,…

  • My emergency car kit, well for beauty emergencies

    It’s happened to the best of us. You pull up to your location, ready to go. Then you take a quick look in the mirror only to realize that you in fact are not ready to go. You don’t even want to be seen; you look a mess. For emergencies like this, I am starting…

  • Maison Margiela’s When the Rain Stops is a spot-on interpretation

    I just tried Maison Margiela’s When the Rain Stops. And you know what’s wild? This is the first time that upon closing my eyes that I was transported to the memory Margiela tried to evoke. I remembered sitting outside, in a field, just after the conclusion of a storm. I am not sure why. It’s…

  • Stop “utilizing” when you could just “use”

    Utilize. It is a word that I see far to often. From college essays to office memos, people are just putting it in there. Often it is because they think that it sounds better than “use.” Or least it takes up more characters. What’s the harm, right? I mean, they mean the same thing, so…

  • Meril: A quick New Orleans restaurant review

  • It doesn’t matter what you’re selling if no one’s buying

    I believe one of the myths about marketing is that it is all about getting people to buy what you have. If you make a slick ad campaign, you can get people to buy the product that you have sitting on your shelf. That’s not how it works. Or rather, it’s not how it is…

  • The Local Three Kitchen & Bar Chef’s Table experience is a must

    I have always wanted to experience a fine dining experience, one of those meals that would seem cost-prohibitive to do regularly but is definitely worth it in the moment. After looking for multiple places to try this out, I along with my group settled on the chef’s table experience at Atlanta’s Local Three Kitchen &…

  • Testing out the Patchology Served Chilled Rosé masks

    I had the Patchology Served Chilled Rosé face and eye masks sitting around, unused. And then I decided, why not treat my skin before I head out to dinner. I put the eye mask on first. I had never used an eye mask before. It was a bit of a struggle to orient it on…
