How Green Is Your Coffee?

Let me just start by saying this is not a misplaced St. Patty's day post. By "green" I mean environmentally conscious. Do you buy a cup of joe every morning on your way to work? Well there are a few ways to make your daily dose of caffeine have a smaller carbon foot print. Mug Shot: Bring your own "travel" mug that you can use over and over and over again, instead of adding a paper cup and Read more

Zoe Saldana at the 2011 Met Gala

One of our Fab faves, Zoe Saldana, just arrived to the Met Gala looking cheery in a yellow Calvin Klein gown. The look is a bit like a grown-up, incredibly chic Easter dress — and Zoe looks perfectly polished. The shade of buttery yellow really complements her skin tone, as does her rosy pink blush and subtle smoky eye. Her dark curls are looking a bit longer; no word on whether they're Read more

What to Do When You Have a Few Gray Hairs

We're excited to present this article from Allure! I have had a small number of stark white strands in my hair since I was 14. Since I come from early-graying roots (jokes!), I wasn't surprised by their appearance, but have marveled at their lack of progress. They're not clustered together, and are only noticed by other people every once in a great while. They've never bothered me, perhaps in Read more

Memoire Liquide Vacances Liquide Review

Vacances Liquide ($95) is like a more grown-up, luxe-smelling version of the popular Harajuku Lovers "G" scent. If you love coconut, tropical florals, and vanilla, you'll eat this one up. It opens up with a bright burst of very real jasmine, sashays its way into a mix of beachy floral and coconut water that smells like the best parts of sunscreen, then dries down to a soft, slightly woody Read more
