I recently had the chance to sit down and interview my 14-year-old niece (specifically, my best friend’s elder daughter) about her beauty routine, and it was fascinating. Casey is one of the smartest people I’ve ever met, which I’m not saying just because I love her, and I was struck....
Pickleball is taking over. I played tennis in high school — in a more scattershot but still deeply obsessed way since then — and so fought against it as long as possible, but here’s the thing: It’s too fun. Resistance is futile. When I left grad school for France earlier....
I recently entered a season of life focused on lists of French fashion essentials — and I did not always like what I saw. I have seen more trench coats on these lists than on the streets of Paris. I don’t think that many people are walking around Paris in....
