    Silk Hairties

    While I love a ponytail, I’m not much of a fan of hair creases that make me look like I caught my mane in a door jamb. These silk hair ties (which are included in the current Shopbop Sale!) stay put, while still treating your hair gently and preventing breakage. They’re also magically cuter than normal hair ties, but not as big and scene-stealing as scrunchies.

    Planta App

    Anyone else kill literally all of their plants? Does your foliage cower in fear? Just me? If keeping track of your plants’ individual sunlight and water needs tends to be the first forgotten item on the to-do list that lives in your mind, the Planta app is an ideal hack that was recently recommended by my friend Ijeoma. It will send you care reminders based on the needs of each individual plant. Genius.

    Dudley Stephens

    Remember last winter when I wouldn’t shut up about how much I love Dudley Stephens? Yeah, well, you’re in for a repeat of that song and dance because the temperatures have officially dipped below 60 here and therefore I shall begin the process of swaddling myself in their delicious fleece until April. If you’re not familiar, Dudley Stephens is the gold standard in quality fleece-wear and this tunic-length turtleneck was probably my most-worn item of last winter. And, that was before Covid hit when I had a lot more reason to wear dresses and skirts and all that nonsense. Now that my…

    Flipboard App

    As we approach an election (I know, did you hear? There’s an election coming soon!) with millions of Americans making voting decisions, not just about the Presidential candidates, but also on critically important local and state elections, there’s a lot of information to consume. But have no fear, Flipboard is about to be your new favorite app. It allows you to curate news and information so you can stay connected to the issues, candidates and stories that matter to you. You can completely personalize and organize your experience to stay on top of all the information you want to read…

    Men’s Basic Tees

    I just bought these perfect basic tees for Rich (and, ahem, a few for myself) because have you ever, like EVER seen something with this many high ratings before? I mean my goodness do they also do your taxes and give you a back massage? (Spoiler: they do not.)

Yes, I’m facilitating your pandemic drinking problem and I’m not sorry.

    Loeffler Randall Belt

    May I be remembered for my affinity for belts. *Colette coughs* And hot rollers, sorry. This Loeffler Randall croc-effect leather belt is a Mary belt if I’ve ever seen one, and it adds a cool, classic touch to your casual yet professional enough to meet a colleague for socially distanced coffee outfits. Wear with jeans, wear over a dress, wear over a blazer, just wear it. That’s all I ask. This belt deserves to see the world.

    Marcella on Netflix

    Anyone else… umm more than mildly obsessed with British crime dramas? Cool so, Marcella needs to be your next one. I know it’s not new, because it’s been on my list for years just staring at me, trying to get me to come to my senses and watch. I finally did, and IT IS GRIPPING. However, it’s very important to include a major trigger warning that it is quite dark at times and the second season of the show I found really difficult to watch because it involves some horrific themes around pedophilia and infant deaths. Definitely not easy for…
