My 25th birthday was exactly 2 weeks ago (on Valentine’s Day — I’m a love child) and as a gift to myself I have decided to do something that I never expected to willingly do.  I’m about to spend 40 days backpacking through 4 countries and 10 cities in South America.  I have spent the [...]

No one declared this to be a launch party for Honey.  But after several stabs at planning one months ago when we first relaunched and each time falling through, it seems like this one just came together on its own accord.  (Not really of course — our PR girl, Christina, and several others put a [...]

Let me preface this by letting you in on the fact that I am much more of a Free People than Rocawear kind of girl.  But between their fall 2009 and 10th Anniversary collections, I was definitely left drooling over more than their beautiful 38th floor midtown office-slash-gallery space.  Erika, Honey’s fab photo editor, and [...]

When we do photoshoots at Honey Magazine I use whomever may be hanging around for test shots.  However, the Honey staff is less than camera shy and the testers usually end up as editor photos.  During a recent shoot with Vashtie, our new fashion editor pulled lots of fun clothes and accessories for our girl [...]

This past Wednesday the Honey office hosted a beauty night with makeup artist and beauty expert Cynde Watson.  She let us in on some of her secrets — some of which were oh-so-obvious, but still sent me running home to clean my makeup brushes and *almost* made go running to the salon for eyelash extensions [...]

…is my lovely friend, Nina.  Quite some time ago we had a conversation that went something like this:
“I think you’re smaller than me.”
“No, I think you’re smaller than me.”
“Well, I think I’m shorter than you, but you’re skinnier than me.”
“I don’t think so.  How about we just agree that we’re the same size?”
“OK.”
Now please excuse [...]

I have been a very busy girl lately – working hard and playing hard.  My birthday was on Valentine’s day and I had two consecutive weekends of fun.  And one unfortunate weekend in Florida prior where the water happened to be warmer than the air which resulted in the washing away of my Superbowl hangover [...]

This is my least favorite time of year, but somehow this winter doesn’t seem to be so harsh.  It’s very cold, but somehow refreshing.  I feel like I drink too much, but it’s really the same as usual.  It’s just that I stay home and drink wine instead of keeping half the bars downtown in [...]

I have this absurd notion that when I head home tomorrow (aka: the Arctic), that I will find some boy that is going to want to whisk me away on a ski trip for New Year’s.  I’m not quite sure where this idea came from, but as I was packing I found myself grabbing for [...]

I apparently have a thing for white, flowery bikinis.  Because I now have three.  All with pink and green flowery patterns.  This one I bought in Italy at Calzedonia, which is this crazy chain that sells swimwear and tights.  Oh, Italy.  Sometimes you are very strange (stamps at the post office?  I don’t think so.  [...]
