Friends! As you read this, I’m in Mexico (again), but this time for work (sort of). If you’re at all interested in photos of beaches/ruins/cenotes, you can follow along on Instagram!

I love Elise’s round up of ethical fashion under $25!

Do good marriages include yelling?
I could nearly see my exhaled stew of emotions; it looked like glitter floating around, drifting to the floor. I wasn’t high, but I felt like it. The patterns in the sunlight suddenly struck me as the most painfully beautiful things I had ever seen. Silent sparkles swirling around, making a decision.

Ahhh! Perfumes inspired by famous ladies! Jane Austen and Sylvia Path!

When we talk about how people use social media, we’re usually talking about how young, white, city-dwellers are using social media. How do other people use it? The Morning News talked to a sex worker, a pastor’s wife, a rapper about how they use social media.

22 things every woman needs in her life. (I promise, this post is not what you think it is.)
