5 on 5: Perfume Necklaces
If you’re scent-obsessed, you’ve probably thought about ways to carry your perfume with you for travel or touch-ups. I’m a loyal user of small plastic atomizers like the ones sold by Accessories for Fragrances (cheap! unbreakable! lightweight!), but sometimes I’m tempted by jewelry created specifically to contain perfume.
Happy 4th of July!
Wishing you a Glorious Fourth!

Product Review: LUSH T for Toes
Don’t we think about our feet much more often in the summer? They’re more visible, thanks to sandals and peep-toe shoes and so on. (I personally like to ignore the existence of flip-flops, barring a trip to the beach.) However, this greater exposure also means that they go through extra wear and tear, not to mention sun and heat.
If you’re able to maintain a strict pedicure regimen all summer, more power to you; but the really important things are, first, to apply sunblock to those poor, hard-working appendages, and second, to keep them as cool and comfortable as possible.
