If you’ve read any of my other writing, you’d know that I’m a big K-beauty fan. There are some really great K-beauty products out there for irritation- and acne-prone skin, and one of my absolute favorite brands is Beauty of Joseon. I first fell in love with the brand when (like many others) I discovered its viral sunscreen on TikTok and it has become a staple in my routine ever since. The formula is so creamy, lightweight, hydrating, and most importantly, didn’t cause new breakouts for me. Naturally, that led me to want to try a slew of other things from the brand and let me tell you, they did not disappoint. I gave a handful of Beauty of Joseon’s best offerings a whirl for a month. For all my thoughts on the brand, keep on scrolling. I’m breaking it all down ahead. read more

How long was your relationship?
7 years.

Why did you end your long-term relationship?
Looking back, the relationship absolutely ran its course. We didn’t break up for any particular reason, really, as in to say we didn’t really have any major fight or issue that was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Rather, we had gotten so comfortable together that we were sort of just coasting along, happy enough but not really progressing. I remember thinking that we should break up, but I was honestly terrified to end it. We spent almost every day together, talking constantly and sharing everything. read more

Years ago, when I first began working in fashion, I received some unsolicited, albeit excellent, advice from a more senior editor: Invest in your wardrobe. While my closet is nothing close to a designer display room, I have taken this tip to heart and have always prioritized shopping for quality over quantity. For me, this means allocating more of my budget to basics that I wear regularly rather than the latest trends that might not be a long-term fit. read more

Sometimes all we need to hear is the word “sale” to get motivated to do a little shopping. Right now, we’re in the mood for some new fall pieces we’re aspirationally looking forward to wearing, and Shopbop is the perfect place to get them. The site’s having a massive sale right now, and it’s marked down some of its most coveted merchandise, which practically never happens — these are pieces you could actually wear right now. You can take up to 25 percent off of cool spring and summer styles with the code STYLE, from April 8 to 11. Plus, the code is valid on pieces that are already on sale, too, so that means even more savings. read more

For some, festival season style essentials like crop tops and vintage denim are kept at the ready all year long. But for spring and summer 2024 in particular, it’s no surprise that ’90s fashion is heavily influencing shopping habits. Fans of the fashion era have a newfound affinity for baggy cargo pants, oversize jeans, naked dresses, and — of course — corsets. Y2K-inspired looks are also trickling into the festival realm, so if classic bohemian staples like cowboy boots, fringe, and crochet aren’t for you, you have slightly more contemporary options. read more
