GOSSIP

KNOW
The UK voted to make its Brexit from the EU yesterday. It’s a long process, expected to take two years for the conscious uncoupling to occur. Here’s a guide for what this means for Americans. I try to stay away from controversial topics — and my opinions on them — on my blog, but this was a terrible decision fueled by racist, anti-immigration talking points (oh, wait, it’s called “nationalism”). Americans can’t even be too judgmental about it, given that Trump is the presumptive Republican nominee and we’re well on our way to alienating ourselves, too.

SURVIVE
Being an Airbnb host doesn’t seem easy — and it’s even harder to be reviewed harshly for things beyond your control. Just reading this essay has made me more conscientious about overnight stays.

LEARN
There have been opinion pieces published recently (ahem, New York Times) discussing whether or not office dress codes should be more strict. According to a fashion historian, this shift has been in the works for decades — and likely encompasses our society’s yearn for individualism.

SHOP
There’s a fun sale at Tory Burch with in-season merchandise at a discount! I’m likely going to abstain this time around, unless I come up with a need for this bag or this bag! Shop clothing, shoes, bags, and accessories.

Breakouts as an adult are the worst. Here’s a guide to identify your skin woes and, most importantly, how to fix them.

GIGGLE
This is a hilariously accurate portrayal of stylish travel bloggers. I’m guilty of leaving an exhausted Dave at the entrance of a hotel room while I snap photos of the pristine bed first!

DEVOUR
Popsicle season is decending upon us! Leave the artificially flavored versions at the grocery store and make your own with coconut water, coconut milk, and fruit.
