Entrepreneur Tackles Personal Challenge That Results In Helping Millions | June 30, 2011

Entrepreneur Tackles Personal Challenge That Results In Helping Millions

“Working in the vitamin industry and having to admit I couldn’t swallow pills was basically like wearing a Scarlet Letter A,” says New York native, Hallie Rich. Before founding Rich Vitamins LLC in 2009, Ms. Rich was the third generation to work in her family’s vitamin business. Working alongside her father and grandmother, Ms. Rich rose through the ranks, but despite her success in the company, she was keeping a pretty big secret—she couldn’t swallow vitamin pills.

According to a USA Today article, Ms. Rich isn’t alone… 100 million Americans have difficulty swallowing pills. Aware of the benefits of vitamins … Read More »

Glamorize a Neutral Outfit with the Right Accessories | June 30, 2011

Glamorize a Neutral Outfit with the Right Accessories

On a casual day, in gloomy Washington, you rely on accessories to make your outfit pop. This can be accomplished in several ways. One, color, use bright accents to add to your neutral outfit. Two, statement pieces, pieces like the Lori cheetah bracelet by Robyn Rhodes (featured in these photos). Three, layered accessories, which make the bulk stand out against a simple outfit. All three concepts I used on a casual walk to the nearby Starbucks. Pairing the layered gold Lana ring with layered turquoise bracelets, topping it off with the Lori cheetah statement bracelet, along with … Read More »

The Run: London’s Secret | June 30, 2011

The Run: London’s Secret

By Ella Roberts, author of The Run: London’s Secret

It was the beginning of summer 2005 and as usual I had nothing better to do than sit up in my room and read a book. After all I had no job, no money, and I had just dropped out of university doing a course I had no business even thinking about!

The book I was reading was about a publishing dynasty and half way through it, a random voice in my head asked “why don’t you write?”. Mind you, this voice had surfaced a few years earlier, and my answer … Read More »

Sailor Jerry Rum 4th of July BBQ | June 30, 2011

Sailor Jerry Rum 4th of July BBQ

For lighter summertime fare, the Backyard Tea – made with lemonade and iced tea – strips the innocence and adds a bite to the classic barbeque beverages. Easy to make and great for group, it can batched and served as a punch so guests can serve themselves — and you can focus on manning delicious burgers and steaks searing on the grill.

Made with a spicy combination of ginger beer, pilsner, Tabasco and our beloved Sailor Jerry, the ingredients aptly explain its name – The Hellfire. Not for the faint of heart, this cocktail – a place where sweet, spicy, and … Read More »

Ten for the Win | Minimalist Packing for Travel-Savvy Chicks | June 30, 2011

Ten for the Win | Minimalist Packing for Travel-Savvy Chicks

It happens to the most seasoned of travelers.  You start with the basic essentials—toothbrush, underwear, sensible shoes—and yet somehow, by the time you load up the car or board your flight, you’ve convinced yourself that eight changes of footwear and an evening gown will be good to have around just in case.

Kudos to you for your natural instinct to always be prepared, but let’s face it, you probably didn’t need a just in case Nordic sweater on your last trip to Barbados.  Airline companies are becoming hip to the average fashionista’s jive—checked baggage fees alone will take a bite out … Read More »
