We haven’t done a Cartel Hangout in a while, and it being summer, there’s no better time to do one. This time around we’re talking Wölffer Estate Vineyard in the Hamptons. Let me clarify before you judge me on the Hamptons – I’m southern born and bred, and the glitz and glamour of the Hamptons, or…
Back in 1986, Airwalk introduced themselves to the emerging movement of board sports. Having been one of the originators, I remember my sister dragging me along to Gadzooks in the Houston Galleria to buy herself a pair. She wasn’t a boarder, but it was the style in the 90s, and whether you partook in the…
I don’t know if you know this, but I love cars – very luxury designed cars. Not luxury like we see on the market today where you brand every inch of an item with a logo, but the discreet nuances that make you ask, “Who?” And I know that Lincoln Motor Company hasn’t been looked…
Summer has shown its hothead and as much as I don’t want to admit it, anything goes when it’s blazing. Lounging shirtless on the wooden floor of your apartment? Yes. Scheduling your dog walks during the coolest hours of the day? Check. Only eating cool temp meals, to not exacerbate the sweat already streaming down…

All throughout the summer we’ll be posting cool places to check out in the states and in Europe, sites to visits, must have travel accessories, and so on. But most importantly, we’ll still be focusing on how to stretch that buck even when it comes to updating that seasonal wardrobe. I know we’re not all…
As a woman who would pick scalding hot wax over chucking razors on the daily, I was quite intrigued when approached about HYD For Men Razor Shield. I know, I know… it clearly states for men, but if I feel annoyance with the lack of sustainability many razors have, imagine how those guys who shave,…
There’s nothing I love more than being pampered. An hour long facial turns into a day of relaxing, being positive, and enjoying your surroundings. Well for me at least, it’s important to soak up as much positive, self-loving juju exuded during a treatment. And at Oasis Day Spathey know that your experience should start from…
I love posting my nails on instagram as much as the next person. Probably even more so. That’s why no one is ever surprised when they catch me stalking nail pages online, like it’s my job. It’s just so interesting researching the latest technologies in nail care, finding different shapes, new color collections, new designs.…
I recently attended the Fragrance Awards and asked many of the attendees what their favorite scent was. To my surprise many said the natural scent of Provence. Known for its bounty of lavender fields, and housing the world renowned city of Grasse, Provence is the epicenter of untouched, all-natural scents. That’s why many, including myself,…
Recently, I did the 12-Day GoodBelly Challenge. I love challenges. It’s like competing with myself, which build personal and emotional strength. Anyway, so I did this challenge going in slightly fearful. There are so many things on the market today that you don’t know what is what, what the long term effects are, and is…
The one thing I love about vacation is the splurging aspect of traveling. I mean if you’re going to travel to a 6-night luxury spa hotel in Bali, wouldn’t you want to get the luxury party started in the air? Lucky for you, airberlin has covered. Since the launch of their new business class, airberlin…
