Eight years ago, Wings Hawaii, an all-woman run clothing and jewelry company, started as an art project at the University of Hawaii. Now the Maui-based line sells their handmade, beach-inspired designs at stores all over Hawaii (Oahu, Kauai and Maui), the mainland (New York, California, Georgia and Washington) and online at wingshawaii.com.

Oil: It’s not just for deep frying and cars I would love to hug the genius/sadist who, one fateful, oil-slicked day, threw that first potato into a vat of boiling oil. Buddy, I’d like to shake your greasy hand. Mmm, fries… But oil’s not just for cars and deep frying. Companies have been pushing cleansing [...]

$7 Almay Intense I-Color Trios Take the Guesswork Out of Eyeshadow Matching
Gosh, I haven’t worn any Almay makeup since — when was that? 1992? I vaguely remember buying something from the line at a Thrifty’s where I cruised for makeup after school.

Um, can you say swoon? I’ve been dying — DYING! — to see the new Chanel Nail Lacquer in Riva ($27) ever since it popped up on the runway at the Chanel Cruise fashion show last May. I’ve lusted over Riva more than I’ve lusted over the abs of the official “Sexiest Man Alive,” aka [...]
