After much delay, the 2024 Emmy Awards finally took place last night. The Bear and Succession won big, taking home multiple golden statues by the end of the night. I have to admit that I haven’t seen either of those… or a majority of the nominees. I tuned in to see the glamorous hair and makeup looks […]

I don’t know about anyone else, but I hate shopping for pants. It’s so frustrating that there’s no consistency between brand sizing, and truthfully, anything with buttons tends to pull and uncomfortably pinch. That’s why I’ve been on a mission to find figure-flattering pants that can make me feel good about my body and feel […]

Seasonal depression is a very real thing. To combat the winter blues that creep up every January, I always book a tropical vacation and partake in some retail therapy!

One thing I admire about pop stars is their ability to belt their lungs out and perform intricate dance routines in front of millions of people — all while looking absolutely perfect.

We can all agree that  Tina Fey is a comedic genius, right? The multi-hyphenate star has been dominating the entertainment industry for over 30 years, and she’s still at the top of her game! I adore her jokes and movies as much as anyone else, but can we take a minute to admire how pretty […]

I constantly remind myself that getting older is a privilege and that aging is a part of life. That said, I really hope that I look as good as Dolly Parton when I’m 77! I swear that the country star hasn’t aged in years. While Parton has access to some of the best dermatologists and […]

Get in ladies, we’re going shopping… and to the theaters! Mean Girls became a bonafide classic after it came out in 2004. Now, 20 years later, a new musical version is set to premiere this weekend on Friday, January 12. I absolutely can’t wait and have been planning my Mean Girls-inspired outfit to celebrate the occasion […]

There are a few things that will never go out of style: little black dresses, a great pair of jeans and classic Converse high-tops. The latter has been the staple shoe for millions of people since the 1970s, with generation after generation relying on the comfy kicks. Don’t believe me? Even Hollywood’s younger stars, including […]

Lady Gaga may be known for her outlandish ‘fits (everybody still remembers the meat dress from 2009, right?), but lately she’s been embracing more subdued looks whether she’s hitting the stage or out and about running errands.

I never feel completely put together unless my nails are done. While I typically opt for gel polish, my nails (and my bank account) have been feeling depleted, so I’ve recently made the switch to regular lacquer to give my nails a breather. Aside from saving major funds, doing my own nails is strangely therapeutic […]
