I’m just going to come right out and say it: it’s time to talk about camel toes. We’ve all been there at one point or another — we slip on our favorite pair of workout leggings and running shoes, only to look in the mirror and see that we can see much more than we bargained for. Namely, the outline of our labia majora. While some of us may have no problem with the idea of showing a little extra, others might not feel so comfortable. I am firmly stationed in the latter camp, which is why when I first heard about the camel-toe-proof Jiv Athletics High Rise Thong ($35), I knew I had to get my hands on a pair immediately. read more

Time Doesn’t Matter In Friendships — My Best Friends Came Later In Life

Best friends can arrive at any time in life, but there has to be a willingness to put in the effort. Download the app, book the event, talk to the person next to you.

Porter downloaded the Bumble BFF app and connected with another woman in the city, locking in brunch plans. “We immediately clicked, discussing common interests like fashion, pop culture and heartbreaks caused by Scandinavian men,” she says. “Our first ‘date’ went so well we wanted to extend it and decided to go to a cinema nearby, and within a couple of weeks were hanging out regularly.” It didn’t take long for the friendship to build and become close. Today they’re long distance friends who keep regularly in touch. Porter says this friendship makes them both feel comfortable being themselves, but that it’s also changed her as a person. “My adulthood friendships have been an opportunity to break old habits that may have been encouraged by childhood friends, but also an opportunity to try new things.” read more
