This week, several women in my sphere have bemoaned feeling blue. The worst part about feeling a little worse for wear is not having the energy to do the things you usually love. While perhaps a walk through the park or a trip to the accessories department of Forever 21 would…

Like it or not (and believe me, I don't), we live in the age of the $60 candle. It's as if one day, all the fancy candle people got together and decided that, while for years, candles had been topping out at around twelve bucks (for a really big one), suddenly the market could—and should—support candles priced at 5 times that amount.

Plus, the box that its in can be reused as a planter in the garden. What better way to honor Earth Day than to snatch up a couple of these? Read More »
