Introducing essie’s Wild Nudes Collection

by


[The nine new wild nude collection shades include (from left to right, top to bottom): mooning, here with me, clothing optional; exposed, wild nude, without a stitch; winning streak, skinny dip, and truth or bare]

Available this month, essie churns out nine fantastic new shades that play to the concept of the modern version of neutral shades, including moody purple, dusty blue, and paler than pale grey.  The runways have been rife with the concept of skin-matching neutrals the past few seasons when it comes to beauty, and an easy way to play with the trend can of course be via your fingers and toes. Just in time for sandal season, mooning (light shadowy blue with an undertone of black) makes a perfect transition into the summer season, while wild nude (light tan with a wash of white) is guaranteed to nicely compliment sun-kissed skin. As always. each essie shade retails for $9 each, found, for a limited time, at fine salons and beauty destinations nationwide.

Jet Set Essentials for the Perfect Summer Getaway

by

The temperatures on the east coast over the weekend soared into degrees usually designated for the height of the summer, which got me thinking about my next getaway. Some believe that part of the fun is the journey, but I beg to differ; I always dread what may await me at the airport, be it long lines, delays, or even a lack of sufficient outlets to charge my phone. There really Although these items are out of my control, the one thing I can take ownership over is how I look and feel. I’ve put together six fabulous new products that have helped me maintain as tranquil as a position as possible before, during, and after the flight process that may not make traveling akin to a spa experience, but at least you’ll look and feel relatively normal!

Clockwise from left:

Technically, this hand-made Parker Clay scarf is a Baby Blanket ($38), but it’s minimalist design and lovely mission (for each blanket sold, one is given to a child in the Bring Love In program in Ethiopia), will feel you with warmth on the inside and out. With limited options to control the temperature in the cabin, your plane ride could be chilly, and this blanket makes the perfect shawl, scarf, lap blanket, or cushion for your back or neck.

A Case for Every Taste

by

[My caseable iPhone 6 case, among the birds of paradise in Hawaii]

As our phones are the ultimate extension of ourselves and contain some of our most cherished memories and information, it only makes sense that the case we use to protect serves a dual function for fashion and practicality.  I easily look at mine 30 times a day and each time I get a glance of a case that so perfectly reflects my personality and taste, it brings a smile to my face. You can embrace that feeling as well, with a pre-fab or custom design via caseable.

I started using mine, a Birds of Paradise print, when I was in Hawaii, which blended right in with its natural surroundings among the flora and fauna. Every glance toward my phone reminds me of that incredibly lush, tropical place that I’d love to return to in a heartbeat? Which design would transport you? Choose from dozens of designs in categories ranging from animals and art to films and fantasy. Or create your own for as little as $25, depending on your phone model and case desired.
