We started our day with breakfast, at Authentic Bagel Co. shown above, and ended it with a donut - but we did plenty more that eat.

I'm a girl and I don't like Girls

At work when the show first aired, it often came up in casual conversation.  "Did you watch Girls last night? Oh my God! Can you believe THAT happened?! And [insert character name] did that?!" I would look blankly on as the conversation became more animated, often more high pitched in tone and then state with blunt candor,  "I don't like Girls" . In doing this, I always halted the excitement and raised suspicion. As if it's my expected duty, being the owner of a vagina, to not question and to only champion the show.  Ima ge  credit .  I chose this bummed looking pic of Hannah, but I'm sure she actually wouldn't give a shit about this POV.                                                                                       ...

4725mag's daily fashion essentials: the only 3 pairs of shoes you will need all summer

Image
1. Pool side slides, because laces are hard: For cold kickin' it - cocktail firmly in hand - on the beach front, stoop, pool side, backyard or whatever venue you chose to do summer in, you need an all comfort footwear option that doesn't lack on the style or sass front. Cue  these  slides from  UNIF . 2. A do-it-all sandal: These babies will go from a casual, woodland wedding - who doesn't love a "no heels allowed" wedding, btw?! - to a day in the office, to dinner dates, to many happy hours and beyond with us this summer. With a chic mix of neutral black and tan leathers that will pair nicely with your entire closet, clean detailing and a sturdy and totally walkable 1" heel to provide just enough elevation to lengthen your legs more than a flat ever could, these  Madewell  sandals will be working overtime for us over the coming months. And,  don't tell anyone,  but they were on  sale . If you're less of a tomboy than us and can go...
