If you click over to My Habit anytime through Tuesday, you can check out a curated event featuring my top maternity picks at phenomenal prices - including cool sweatshirts, beautifully cut tank dresses, and confusingly affordable designer sunglasses. (And there's plenty of great stuff for those of you who aren't expecting - ahem, Schutz sandals for less than $50 and Foley & Corinna bags for under a hundred bucks, AHEM.)

(No but seriously. These prices are ridiculously good. You've got to see them.)

High Desert

March 1, 2016
Francesca Vannucci in Desert Hot Springs, California

This is the Hotel Lautner, in Desert Hot Springs, California: a tiny little place conceived of by iconic architect John Lautner and tucked away in the sleepiest desert town ever. It's all midcentury furniture and cowhide rugs and glamour and makes absolutely no sense sitting at the end of the dusty road where you find it, but that's part of what makes it so spectacular.

Francesca, Brie and I spent a good amount of our girls' weekend at the hotel: we were scouting nearby locations for an upcoming shoot I'm doing for Francesca, and I took a few test shots of her in the surrounding desert (hence the makeup and hair situation going on here). All this, of course, in between dips in the plunge pool and glasses of wine on the balcony and hikes and cactus shopping. (Like I said, "working weekend" is a slight exaggeration.)

It was good. This whole weekend has been good. I have so much more to show you, but for now: this.

Five Cool New Beauty Discoveries

February 26, 2016
Jordan Reid in L'Oreal's Pro-Matte lip gloss in pink

I try out a lot of products. Below are some recent discoveries that are (mostly) new to the market, and that are quickly becoming serious contenders for the Favorites category.

(1) L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Lip Gloss (pictured in Blushing Ambition)

When I first tried this highly pigmented lip gloss, I did a double take - because it doesn't just "dry" to a matte finish...it actually goes on matte. And somehow isn't drying at all - I've been wearing the color you see all morning and it's still right where I put it - and my lips feel completely soft and moisturized. Weird. I like it.

Adulting

Adulting sweatshirt in red available on glam camp

Faking it today. 

Adulting is hard, yo.

So hard that we decided to make a sweatshirt about it. We made it super crazy soft and that exact shape that you always want your sweatshirts to be (loose and slightly oversized without looking like you're a four-year-old wearing a sleeping bag), and perfectly lightweight, so you can wear it all the grown-up places you don't want to go but have to anyway, like the supermarket and barre class and for your three-hour (minimum) trip to the AT&T store later this afternoon because WHAT'S UP WITH THE OVERAGE CHARGES GUYS.
