Here we go! The very first Witty + Pretty Q+A just so happens to be with my favorite author and all-around witty and pretty gal, Emily Giffin (I know. This is a big deal). Read all about her beauty must-haves, tricks, indulgences, and disasters, and don’t forget her sixth novel, Where We Belong, comes out … Read more
Perfume is tricky business. Not only do you have to love the scent you’re spraying on your body, but if you plan on being around people (which includes dates), it’s nice if those people enjoy the smell as well. Tough Love Tom says women should refrain from fragrances (refragrance?) altogether, but I think that’s a … Read more
Let’s talk about sweaty pits. No one wants ’em, but we all have to deal with ’em. Hayden from Pretty In My Pocket fills us in on the BEST products on the market, whether you need clinical treatment for your underarms, prefer all-natural sweat protection, or just want your pits to smell rich. But first, … Read more
I’m always stoked for the start of fall. First of all, because we get a break from the oppressive summer humidity, and secondly, because we can start wearing scarves, jackets, and (most importantly)….boots. Love it. I also adore the season’s color palette–all the oranges, yellows, golds, deep greens, and browns. The sunlight filtering through the … Read more
Nails Inc.’s Porchester Square polish was collecting dust in one of my beauty bins until this past Saturday when I decided to whip it out and do my own nails (yes, it happens on the reg), for a friend’s wedding. I had a feeling it would complement my bridesmaid dress perfectly. And I had a total … Read more
Put your (manicured) hands in the air! We’re introducing a W + P weekly special and it has to do with…drumroll please…wait, you already you guessed it…NAILS. The Monday mani (and sometimes pedi, too) will be compliments of Myka Barbato, owner of BUFF nail bar in Atlanta, nail guru, and ridiculously stylish person in general. … Read more
I do get manis on the reg (what else are you going to do after a boozy brunch?), but I actually enjoy painting my own nails, too. I love picking out a color from my collection, and I find the process to be rather relaxing and a perfect activity to do while half-watching mindless reality … Read more
Hi. I’m Ashley and I’m a recovering lash-aholic. About this time last year, I got my first set of eyelash extensions, was obsessed, and maintained them for ten months, but with refills every three weeks (at a price I don’t feel comfortable sharing) and the fear that the extensions just might be damaging my real … Read more
So, I’m kind of an expert on this topic. Wait, that makes me sound like a…..whatever. I don’t spray tan all the time–usually only before special occasions (weddings, vacations, expected run-in with an ex, etc.)–but when I do, it’s with Tiffany at RAW Bronzing Studio. The tans are organic, perfectly airbrushed every time, and won’t … Read more
This morning, I was sitting in Cafe Jonah (one of my happy places…most days) next to two girls who talked smack about people for a solid hour and a half (ie. the entire time I was in their presence). Spewing stuff like, “she’s trash,” “he’s the laziest person I’ve ever met,” “I could give a … Read more
