Winter: A Hairy Situation

The coldest months of the year are quickly drawing closer and I’m not ready. I’m no fan of winter and my body agrees. My skin rebels when exposed to the cold air, but normally that can be fixed by slathering on copious amounts of lotion. But my hair? Ohhhhh, my hair is a complete other [...]

Fashion & Beauty Advice: Stylish Awareness

If you want to be fashionable for a great cause, look no further than Katydid. These clothes are cute, comfy and spread awareness about breast cancer. I love my black t-shirt because it’s super versatile. I can wear it with jeans and flip flops, or throw it on with a black skinny pant if I’m [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Commitment

We all know about commitment: agreeing to be with someone for the unforeseeable future. Dedicating ourselves to the unknown, even at the risk of failure. Relationships are about being brave enough to take that plunge. Once or twice I’ve been faced with a very different kind of commitment: the commitment to being just friends. I’m not [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Stuck in the Gap

It is a well-documented fact, especially among women, that men generally mature slower than women. It is something we are forced to accept, despite the fact that this is often hard to do. Recently, my girl friends and I are noticing that this gap in maturity is manifesting itself in a new, not good way. [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Conflict

As someone who constantly seeks answers to the dating questions that are as old as time, I make it a point to listen to every piece of advice that comes my way. While I believe that there is not one key way to meet men, I’m not sure if I buy conflicting ideas. Let me [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Fall into the Season

This time of year always interests me. The nights get darker sooner, the air is crisper and there is a sense of calmness that summer seemed to make us forget is possible. Over the past few years, I’ve noticed that relationships and the way in which people approach them reflects this as well. For example, [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Missing Piece

A long time ago I accepted that no man, or relationship, is perfect. Even the most seemingly-blissful couple still have things to work through and will always be growing. Recently, however, I’ve been pondering exactly how far a relationship can survive if there are elements missing. My go-to example is Sex and the City’s Carrie [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: S.O.S.

How is it that feelings of love and affection can so quickly transition into feelings of jealousy and hate? When couples break up, they must suddenly retract everything that once felt so natural. Second guessing is the name of the game and, unfortunately, no one wins. However, some part of each party wants to be [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Enough Isn’t Enough

For women, being single can be the hardest label to wear. We console ourselves by investing in great careers, spending time with fabulous friends and creating for ourselves the best life we possibly can. But even for the most successful single woman, when is the best no longer enough? I would like to think that [...]

Sex & the Single Woman: Denied

Last week I bumped into a friend I knew casually about a year ago. We flirted, exchanged numbers and all seemed well. I went to bed that night and woke up with a text the next morning asking what I was doing later. And then everything fell apart. I responded that I was helping my [...]
