This is what your favorite fragrance says about your style and personality whether you like citrus scents or floral perfumes. Our jewelry and our manicures reveal a lot about us, but nothing says more about a person than their choice of fragrance. Whether you’re obsessed with refreshing citrus scents or love a floral fragrance as much as a bouquet of flowers, that perfume tells us a lot about you. Who hasn’t smelled a stranger wearing Chanel N°5 and known exactly what type of person that would be? i.e., The type of woman who is into classic, tailored clothes and who knows how to tie a scarf. Read on to find…

If you’re looking for a sneak peek of what Tara Reid’s Sharknado perfume smells like, I cannot provide that. I can, however, provide insight into almost every new perfume on Sephora’s shelves and a sometimes striking juxtaposition between the perfume’s description and what the thing actually smells like. I would have shortened the descriptions for you if they weren’t so damn hilarious in their own right. (What exactly does “the boundless spirit of blue skies” smell like?) All sniffing bows to the subjective character of experience, but I have been as honest and thorough as possible. Viva La Juicy Gold Couture What…

It is a known fact that ladies, as well as men, use shoes. However, men do not face as many challenges as women when it comes to choosing the right shoes. There are dynamics to choosing the right one for men and that is not deniable. However, the challenges that come with selecting the right one for ladies are a lot more. What is the reason for this? Although choosing the right shoes for girls or ladies is a daunting process for some, it does not have to be this way. It could be a lot easier if you knew some tricks…

Who has time to delay replying to a text? I accidentally broke all of the modern dating rules and ended up in a relationship. I broke the dating rules and ended up in a relationship. It’s not like I consulted the Big Book Of Dating As A Hetero Black Chick In The 21st Century and decided to say, “fudge this.” I mean, maybe I would have if such a book existed, but most of the dating rules are unwritten, learned by observing friends and making an ass out of yourself. Unfortunately, most of these unwritten rules are oozing with the…

I’m in my first adult relationship–first relationship period–and I’m afraid of the inevitable breakup. Is that a normal feeling? I’m a sentimental bitch. I take pictures of everything from friends to food to interesting people on the subway as if I’m afraid of one day forgetting them. I manage to rekindle friendships after months, years out of contact. I keep movie tickets and cigarette stubs from poignant moments of camaraderie that I imagine happening in an indie film. I don’t like letting go of things that made an impact on my life, so it’s easy to understand why I have…

It is ultimately up to the individual to decide whether or not they would let a man give them a manicure. Some may feel more comfortable with a female manicurist due to the intimate nature of the experience, while others may find that getting a manicure for men provides numerous benefits, such as improved hygiene and relaxation. There is no strict rule on how often men should get a manicure, but some beauty professionals suggest every two weeks. I’ve always been somewhat uncomfortable about the mani/pedi experience. There’s an element of the power dynamic in play when someone begins to…

I tried to find closure in Scotland. My study abroad experience began as a whim, a nauseous feeling in the pit of my stomach that grew as my junior year summer concluded, and I realized what senior year held in store: An awkward nine months in close proximity to my ex and a campus devoid of my close friends, who had all graduated. No way. I emailed the study abroad office and headed for Scotland. I knew closure would come. It had to, whether internal — a new era of me! — or external, through validation from others or via…

The sticky bra is a convenient and affordable solution for wearing backless and strapless clothing. However, the adhesive may not last long, and it may not be suitable for very plunge-y designs. Some users have found success with using two adhesive pieces per breast, while others swear by reusable nipple covers from Amazon. Ultimately, the final verdict on the sticky bra depends on individual needs and preferences. When my friends and I would get ready to go out, they’d wear all these little dresses, sans bras. To me, the idea was sort of ludicrous. I have never had an issue…

Modular kitchens are usually composed of easy-to-assemble modules that allow you to create a custom design kitchen storage. You can often find modular storage systems in apartment buildings and condominiums where space is limited. They are popular with people who want to redesign their kitchen to maximize storage space but don’t want to spend too much money on a new kitchen. It’s also ideal for those who have just moved into a new home and want to give their kitchen an update. Modulars are modern built and suitable for small spaces. If this type of kitchen interests you and you…

Skipping shampoo this summer? Add these minimalist pieces of hair jewelry to your locks and no one will be the wiser. This morning I was quickly scrolling through photos from the Council of Fashion Designers of America awards and thinking, yup, cool, pretty, nice, eh, OK, until I came across a picture that stopped me in my tracks. It was the photo above, of singer/songwriter Janelle Monáe. Now, Janelle usually knocks it out of the park in the fashion and beauty department, so I certainly wasn’t surprised to see her looking gorgeous. What threw me for a loop about the photo were those super cool silver rings she incorporated…
