Kamik's Classic Vegan Rain Boots
It’s been a rainy September thus far in New York, which hasn’t been so great for the U.S. Open this week. There’s been no shortage of rain delays, one of which included the much-anticipated Roddick/Del Potro match last night. (Roddick, I’m pulling for you!) Whether you’re looking to be fashionable…
Shop Online with Exclusive Deals
The only thing I love more than some online shopping is a great discount on my purchase! But it can be pretty tough to find good deals online that you can trust. I was introduced to CouponCodes4u and bookmarked it immediately. You should too. It’s a really incredible (free!) service specializing in…
The Importance of Bees: Beekeeping at Narrows Botanical Gardens

DIY Casart Coverings Removable Wallpaper Project
I love color and loathe wearing black. So it’s no surprise that I was pretty unimpressed with the white walls of my apartment when I moved in. The entryway to my Brooklyn apartment was yawn-inducing. It lacked life, color, and that charming feeling of first walking into a home that you’ve…
