I’m talking amazingness from Elizabeth and James (remember THE VEST?), Camilla and Marc, Mara Hoffman (best swimwear … Read more
Oh, Twitter. You have broken down the walls between celebs and common folk and made people feel like they actually know the stars they idolize. Hooray for that. I don’t follow many celebs on Twitter because WILDLY enough, many of them (with the exclusion of comedians) don’t have anything interesting and/or intelligent to say (I … Read more
I have always been an OPI girl–I love the funky-shaped bottles, witty polish names, and the endless array of cool colors. I wouldn’t even entertain the idea of choosing an Essie nail polish at the salon because of my brand loyalty. But when I landed in New York City a couple weeks ago and the … Read more

The recently viral video below inspired me to write a piece I’ve been sitting on since June. Take a look (warning: you might feel a little sad), and then read on… Unsettling, right?

Running from spring through summer, this jovial season is composed of EDM festivals, beer … Read more
It’s official: Fall is here (and I’m not ready). I haven’t even switched out my closet yet, but I suppose I better get on it because colder temps are here to stay. But with the change of season not only comes a change in fashion, but also in beauty routine. When it comes to my … Read more
Hold onto your boxer briefs because this one is for the fellas! Remember a few weeks ago when we were on Q100’s The Bert Show women’s panel answering all the burning questions guys wanted to know about sex, self-sex, and more sex? Well (shockingly) they asked us back. The same crew—me, Cara (W+P health/fitness expert), … Read more
Apparently, there’s a sexy theme on W+P this week: Legs, selfies, and now the giveaway I’m announcing. Sorry if you’re a prude and/or are easily offended by riske chat, but I didn’t plan it this way.
