For anyone who lives in a home without a lot of space, you’ll probably feel my pain on this subject. Sure, we make do, but it’s easy to get frustrated when you can’t fit all your belongings into one kitchen/bathroom/bedroom/broom closet. My first apartment had a whopping 5 cabinets to squeeze everything into, but I managed just fine with plastic cups and cutlery in place of permanent cabinet staples.
Now that I’m older (and decidedly more eco-friendly), I’ve made the switch from plastic garbage to more refined, multi-purpose kitchen accessories. My favorites? These diner-esque glasses from Anthropologie. I serve everything in them, from water to wine, beer to soda, and they work well with it all. It also saves me a bundle on buying separate glassware for every beverage. Adding just a touch of whimsy any occasion, they tend to make everything a little fancier, too, even if it is me just sitting on the couch next to the boyfriend while he watches Sunday night football…which ends when, exactly?
Set of four Fleur de Lys Glasses available for $32 at Anthropologie stores nationwide and www.anthropologie.com.
I can’t stand caking my face in makeup, especially since I’m only in my 20s and don’t yet need full coverage. But then there are those days when my skin just doesn’t look alive enough to face the day, which is when I face a dilemma about correct facial products to use. Foundation feels suffocating, but sometimes concealer isn’t enough.
