For her latest outing, she's brought a brand new manicure trend to our attention, and it's the perfect shade to close out summer.

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.

Opinion: Stop Stereotyping Bad Teeth as a Sign of Drug Addiction

Part of the fun of fragrance is how deeply certain scents are tied to specific memories, eras, or relationships and how easily you can conjure up those sights, sounds, and feelings with just a whiff. You can revisit your childhood, a high school dance, a summer fling, or a beloved family member simply by smelling a specific scent, which is as close to magic as we’ll ever get, IMHO.

The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears.
