Holiday season is wonderful for many reasons, not least because of all the parties. It’s a chance to reconnect with friends, show your “fun side” to your colleagues/ work crush, and casually run into an ex wearing the most figure-flattering outfit and sky-high lashes. Basically, it’s a chance to makeover your image as you see fit. This week, score a holiday makeover while shopping women-owned brands and enjoying desserts; get luxurious lashes to make Lana Del Rey herself jealous; and pick up party frocks by Joseph Altuzarra at a heart-pounding 90% off. (A Christmas miracle!!) So about that ex… He doesn’t stand a chance.
