Reflecting on a stranger
I never met Virgil Abloh, but as a someone who was starting to finally accept her interest in fashion, I knew him. His name was oft repeated, and often in mouths full of praise. He had his own brand, Off White, was the creative director at Louis Vuitton, received multiple awards, and somehow still found…

This Sephora Collection mask saved my morning
I have to admit, I am testing a new moisturizer that is really letting me down. But I am trying to give it a chance. That has meant dealing with dry skin, constantly in need of help. On a morning where my skin was feeling particularly dry, I remembered I had a Sephora Collection Hydrating…

Smelling I Am Her by Forvr Mood
My first foray into Forvr Mood fragrances was I am Her. At first spray, I thought it was slightly powdery, then I got my nose going. I could finally detect the slight fruity sweetness. I get why she called it I am Her. It is decidedly feminine, pleasant, and approachable. Described as an “it- girl”…

Conversations in Copenhagen
I went in to the gym to get a quick workout in. Really, I just wanted to add some insights about the gym amenities to my review of Villa Copenhagen.

Eating at Ancestrale in Copenhagen
Digitally stalking the city of Copenhagen on Google maps, I noticed a restaurant with a name that caught my eye. Ancestrale. It was just a short walk from where I was staying, so I made my way over.

These are the hotels I’m recommending, if you’re wondering
Voting for the Travel+Leisure awards has opened. Here are four hotels I will be nominating. It’s only right for me to start this off with the hotel that started it all for me. 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge was the first “nice” hotel I ever stayed at and gave a glimpse into what excellent service meant.…

Well, who put a Sephora ad in my MMA show?
As the coverage came to a conclusion on the Perez/Smith MMA bout, an ad started playing. “The biggest Sephora sale of the year is here!” And then it was closely followed by a Macy’s ad. Well, that’s weird. Fashion and beauty are not your typically brands seeking to reach the typical MMA content consumer. This…

Hoping the B Hydra Serum would work for my dry skin
With the way that I am trying to make Drunk Elephant work for me, you would think I were a newly Sephora-obsessed twelve year old. I keep giving the brand re-dos to let me understand the hype. So that’s why I’m here trying their B Hydra Intensive Hydration serum. Let’s start with how the brand…

Burning a new candle: Winter Stroll from Replica by Maison Margiela
I finally put up my tiny Christmas tree, dressed it in ornaments, and set up my Christmas Village (aka cookie tins I got from Target). I was feeling festive. It was finally time to burn Winter Stroll from Replica by Maison Margiela. Let’s start with the positives. It has an impeccable scent throw. I can…
