[unpaid/affiliate] The most useful accessory I’ve ever found – a crossbody bag for your phone. I’ve ordered a couple already as gifts and I bought myself an Accessorize one as a ‘practice’ to see if I could get along with it before (maybe) going a bit more luxy. I mean, Christmas is coming etc ;-). Phone bags are currently selling like hot […]

In a recent interview with The Cut, the Black Widow herself gets real about the habit she wished she ditched as a kid and reflects on the effects of her piercing phase. “I wish I didn’t pick my skin […]
Just because I have a deep affinity for a smell doesn’t mean I feel the need to douse my body in it before leaving the house. Some of my all-time favorite smells rarely show up in fragrance formulas, and I’m cool with that.
