For so many who pursue a career in design, it's the memories of watching glamorously decorated films and television shows and ornate stagings of theatrical productions that serve as their initial motivations to enter the fashion industry.

It was this revamped Polly's Y2K-inspired style that influenced my own fashion sense, and now Lisa Says Gah is bringing the toy's nostalgic aesthetic to life as the California-based multi-brand retailer teamed up with Polly Pocke...

Any beauty product you see here has been vetted and tested by the editor recommending it. As we approach the official start to spring and take time to tidy up, refresh and generally reset so many aspects of our lives, I ask you: Why neglect the skin? If you're at all like me, even though you spent the winter months moisturizing dutifully, your dull, scaly arms and legs are begging for a little extra attention. Enter:  Lilis Instant Peel , the most satisfying body exfoliator I've ever tried. I first heard about Lilis — a body-care brand inspired by "Korean skin-care innovation and spa culture" — from beloved NYC facialist  Elizabeth Grace Hand, who sung its praises in a holiday gift guide we did last year . "Nothing makes the skin quite as soft as thi...
