Europeans have a leg up on the U.S. when it comes to fashion, coffee and, surprisingly, toothpaste. Yes, toothpaste. Although it’s been seven years since I lived in Italy, I still religiously use the Marvis Whitening Mint Toothpaste, a drugstore staple that keeps my pearly whites blinding better than any other option I’ve tried. When […]

I love drugstore makeup, but there’s one category I’ll always splurge on: eyeshadow palettes. In my experience as a beauty writer, the more affordable options crease, smudge and flake after just a few hours.

I usually don’t bat an eye when celebrities post photos of their designer bags. (Another Birkin? Talk about unattainable.) However, I stopped scrolling when I saw the purse Kylie Jenner was toting around in her Instagram Story this past weekend. I’ve been on the hunt for a classic black crossbody bag (just like a little black […]

Wouldn’t it be amazing if there was a perfume that smelled unique and one-of-a-kind once you sprayed it on yourself? Well, three of those currently exist, thanks to Glossier. The brand’s original perfume, You, made waves when it was released in 2017 due to the fact that it was light, cheerful, and smelled slightly different […]

Cashmere is considered the gold standard of natural fibers because of its supreme softness and unparalleled warmth. These stellar attributes also make it pretty pricey. Luckily, some of our favorite fashion brands are making cozy cashmere looks even more accessible whether you’re looking for a timeless sweater or accessories like gloves and a hat. No […]

Is it just me, or have certain name-brand items lost their luster? When I was growing up in the early 2000s, all everyone cared about was rocking designer labels. Now, I couldn’t care less — I’ll always choose to save a little money and opt for something more affordable that functions just the same. Well, […]

Few fabrics feel as luxurious as silk. Consequentially, few fabrics are as expensive as silk. However, you don’t always have to spend an arm and a leg to wrap yourself in shimmering, comfortable material. Satin feels strikingly similar to silk for a fraction of the price and most people won’t even be able to tell […]

I love reading up on everything Paltrow does, but what I really […]

Nine times out of 10, my gut tells me I’m stressed before my brain does. I’ll feel bloated, unregulated and so sluggish, then ultimately realize I could use a break from whatever is stressing me out (usually work or my busy schedule). I’m sure a lot of people can relate, but not everyone knows that […]

Taylor Swift is known for a lot of things — her chart-topping music, her record-breaking Eras Tour, her blonde bangs, her love of cats. . . the list goes on and on. Throughout her decades-long career, however, the singer has become synonymous with red lipstick — so much so, that it’s rare to see her […]
