Beauty Buzz: Poolside Packing

By Kirsten|May 23rd, 2013|Beauty Buzz, Why Did You Wear That?|

You’ve packed your weekender, polished your fingers and toes and gotten that dreaded Brazilian (you have, haven’t you?) Get thyself to a waxer, woman. The next hurdle you’ll face over the holiday weekend is preparing the perfectly equipped beach bag. There’s nothing worse than trotting all the way down to the beach, finding the perfect spot and then realizing you forgot your sunscreen. That’s a valuable fifteen minutes of Vitamin D and boyscouting that you’ll be missing while fetching your forgotten goods. Below I’ve created the First Aid Kit of beach bags so you can spend more time playing beach blanket bingo with that babe on the chaise next to you and less time retrieving your lip balm.

Why Did You Wear That: Oh Hey, Crochet!!

By Kirsten|April 17th, 2012|Why Did You Wear That?|

While crochet is often associated with granola loving tree huggers or the back of your granny’s couch in doily form, it appears to be making quite the comeback and doing so quite stylishly. So, you can go ahead and put down the Kashi and prunes. Sure, sure, you could take it up as a new hobby. There are enough books out there to teach yourself how to craft up your very own crochet creation… but who really has time for that? Besides, there are plenty or pretty options already available and you won’t have to risk chipping a nail. Crochet makes for great accessories or a sexy (knotty?) beach coverup. The open weave gives you just enough skin showing and I mean, talk about ventilation.
