Rock Jumping and Ruining iPhones in Mexico

Before I left for Mexico, I wanted to be extra prepared (for once) to document my trip via iPhone. I picked up a portable charger and a monopod (AKA selfie stick) so I could take photos and video without my mug being all up in the camera and you guys could see more of the … Read more

Behold the Best Guacamole in the World (Seriously)

I just traveled to Mexico for the first time, and I must admit the thing I looked forward to most was not the beautiful beaches, not the luxurious resort, not the day trips to Playa Del Carmen and Isla Mujeres, not breaking my iPhone and cenote jumping, not the endless margaritas, not the body shots … Read more

13 Good Books to Read This Summer (or Whenever)

When I was a kid, I was never without a book on my person (#NerdAlert: I would ask how long a car ride was just in case I might finish one book and need another). These days, I don’t get to read (for pleasure) as much as I’d like, but lately, I’ve been making more … Read more

Road Trip Part 2: Mattresses + Monuments

(In case you missed Part 1) I begrudgingly left the Best Place on Earth and Rob put me in charge of finding food in Asheville (THE PRESSURE). After pretending to look up restaurants on my phone for 10 minutes but really just scrolling Instagram, I quickly crowd-sourced my Facebook friends and received a few glowing recommendations … Read more

Spread the Love & Win This Whip (for the Week)

I’ve always had a sweet spot for Ford Motor Company. It’s such a part of American history (that Model T tho), my dad drives a big ass F-250 (one of his many vehicles), and I once dated this hot AF guy with a sweet, red Focus (he’s totally reading this right now). So when Ford … Read more

You Did Not Wake Up Like That + Why Kim K > Blake Lively

Phew. Thanks to Racked (and my former DailyCandy editor Lauren), I just read this article by Gala Darling inspired by a piece on The Cut titled, “Why Not Admit We Didn’t Wake Up Like This?” Nevermind that chain reaction (I just wanted to credit everyone), but take a look at THIS doozy of an observation from … Read more

What Men Really Think About Nipples

Oh, nipples. Babies want to suck them, men want to touch them, (some) women want to free them, and Rihanna just wants to show hers and break the Internet on the reg. I have no desire to go topless in public, but I do want this bikini for the beach, pool, or Tuesday mornings over … Read more

8 Awesome/Ridiculous Features on the iPhone 6
