Rain | 051515

I love the rain. I love the contrast to the sunny California days, I love the excuse to snuggle up with a good book or a thousand TV shows, I love the feeling of rain on my body. I LOVE the rain on the beach. It’s been a rainy few days in Newport, and I couldn’t…

Support Nepal … With Diamonds? (Like a Celeb, Obvi)

Politics of diamonds aside (they have loads of other precious stones anyway), Diamondere is donating 100% of proceeds from sales on its entire site today to relief efforts in Nepal! They already did this on Tuesday. As I’m not actually a celeb, I cannot spend the cash to buy myself a bling ring whilst donating…

Celebs in GRACEDBYGRIT (Or, The Best Tank Tops Ever)

For the 141st Kentucky Oaks, on Friday, May 1st, the theme is Think Pink in support of Churchill Downs’ official partnerships with Bright Pink and Horses…

Mindathlon

There’s the real thing. Then there’s the Tribathlon (which comes first? hot tub? steam room? or sauna?). And now, there’s the mindathlon, otherwise known as Wanderlust 108, the world’s first and only “mindful triathlon”: a 5K run, a 90-minute yoga class and a guided meditation on the beach … at the Santa Monica Pier on…
