Office Style: Printed Dresses
This week, our girls were wearing beautiful dresses in all sorts of prints. I think printed dresses are one of the easiest things you can throw on, and with just that and a pair of shoes, you can look put together in a matter of no time. From florals and stripes to detailed embroidery and prints, these looks are pretty and have a touch of cool simplicity. Read More
Makeup Inspiration: Blue Belle
We are all about the color blue this week, with our latest lookbook, Blue Belle. It got us thinking about the color blue, and how we would wear blue makeup. Brightly colored makeup can be tricky — we like it done in subtle ways, with little other makeup. We came up with three looks we love — one with blue liner, one with blue eyeshadow, and for the last we got a little creative with a blue eye pencil. Read More
How To Make Aloe Water
Aloe has long been known for its benefits on the outside the body, from soothing sunburn to treating acne and even promoting hair growth (see our post on aloe plant uses & benefits). What’s lesser known, though, is that aloe may have incredible effects when taken internally, as well! Read More
DIY Zen Garden
When I first came to Free People, I remember falling in love with the giant zen garden that was in the lobby. It was filled with crochet-covered rocks and tiny little trinkets, and FP girls would draw all different designs in the sand to help calm and relax their minds. Read More
New Music We Love
It seems like this time of year is always a good time for new music… today I have a couple albums to share with you that I can’t stop listening to! The first comes from one of the artists we featured in this post, Thao and the Get Down Stay Down. This isn’t a new release, but it is one that I didn’t really start listening to until more recently – and now I can’t stop. Read More
Trend Alert: Birks & Socks
There’s a trend emerging here at our home office that I’m really excited about. It’s a trend that I used to see back when I was in high school, but one in which I never personally took part (although I always wanted to)… until now. Read More
How To Strengthen Your Nails
No matter how many vitamins I take, my fingernails always seem to break so easily. It makes it nearly impossible to ever grow them, plus it can be painful when they catch on things and tear. Read More
Color Inspiration: The Meaning Of Indigo
Indigo is the color of wisdom and intuition. It represents an inner awareness of spirituality, and allows for deep focus during meditation. Read More
How To Make Tea
There is something really beautiful about tea…the scent, the dried herbs and flowers, and of course the taste. In all of my years of drinking tea, I don’t know why I’ve never attempted to make my own blends. Read More
Secret Hand Massage Trick
I don’t get real manicures often, but when I do, the hand massage is always the best part. We use our hands all day, every day, and it’s very necessary to give them a little attention every now and then. The hand massages I’ve gotten at nail salons are all very similar – and there’s one part that always feels the best. Read More
