Mar 6, 2013 by Amanda Mull

Stripes, in particular, had a moment as the industry’s biggest trend. Then Resort 2012 came around, and Celine changed how everyone felt about flowers on their … Read more

Mar 5, 2013 by Amanda Mull

As Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stumbles toward its eventual season finale, it continues to be a show without a real narrative. Brandi’s issues with Adrienne and Paul have stayed resolved.

March Birthday Gift Guide 2013: Aquamarine Handbags

Mar 4, 2013 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

March is one of my favorite birthday months because it’s Vlad’s birthday, and I love my friends’ and family’s birthdays as much, if not more, than my own. I always try to find the best gift for others, and although making this guide isn’t going to help me pick a gift for Vlad, it may help you pick something for your March birthday friends.

This might be my new favorite color for handbags, so even if you’re birthday isn’t in March, this birthday gift guide may still be for you.
