    Rag & Bone Denim Shorts Review: Ugh…

    There’s this pair of Rag & Bone denim short shorts, the Mila shorts in “Moss,” that I love. If they were a child, they’d be entering grade 4 — like, they’re around 10 years old. Rag & Bone discontinued the Mila, but I still bought a “reserve” pair on eBay, just in case my first…

    Are they THAT easy tho? Citizens of Humanity Marlow Easy Shorts review

    In the summer, if you’re like me, you prioritize ease. … actually, wait, no matter the season, if you’re like me, you prioritize ease. Pre-everything and post-everything — everything needs to veer towards “easy.” Slip on shoes, machine-washable clothes, hands-free handbags.
