Aug 17, 2018

If you’re planning one more summer getaway before fall sets in, you’ll need the right bag to bring along on your journey. Not every holiday calls for a big rolling suitcase, but we all know your little tote bag probably won’t hold everything you need for your trip. Enter: the weekender bag. It’s just the right balance between a tote and a carry-on. And the best part? You don’t even have to break the bank to find a truly beautiful and versatile bag that will work for you for years to come.

Imagine if Mary Poppins’ carpet bag was this hot. This deep and spacious option comes in a bold plaid that’s sure to catch anyone’s eye.

Ban.do Getaway Duffle Bag in Paradiso

Do you have a ticket to paradise? Better pack your essentials in a bag that’s fit for a tropical isle. This duffle is huge enough for all your outfits and toiletries but offers comfortable straps so you won’t be weighed down.

Baggu Weekend Bag

If you need something reliable, durable, and that can preferably double as a beach bag, look no further. This nautical stripe canvas bag is roomy and works well for a day on the shore.

A New Day Striped Canvas Weekender Bag

Pack your swimsuit, sun hat, and maxi dress and head to the cape. Even though this affordable option may seem good to be true, the heavy-duty canvas and reinforced bottom can hold up to 22 pounds.

Mi Pac Gym Weekender in Lemon

No color is better for a summer getaway than the shade of sunshine. This modern and minimal design is made with faux leather and yellow woven cotton that makes it stronger than it looks, so you can rest assured it’ll be there for you during a long weekend.

Kate + Alex Cuffaro Quilted Weekender Bag

Travel is easy-peasy when you have a soft-yet-strong quilted bag by your side. Minimalist packers will love how lightweight it is when they take it along on a quick holiday.

Herschel Supply Co. Strand Duffle

This popular design gives you easy access to what you need in your bag (which means no more digging) and comes in a variety of trendy colors to suit your style.

Sole Society Robin Vegan Color Block Weekender

That quintessential leather look can work for vegans too. This fab bag is a modern twist on vintage design but without the guilt, because it’s made with vegan hide.

Lulu’s Stay The Night Burgundy Weekender Bag

It’s simple and classic — just like you. Choose between brown or a slightly less typical burgundy for a bit of pop.

Jadyn B. Weekender Duffel Bag with Shoe Pocket

If a bottomless pit of a bag isn’t your style, don’t worry. There are plenty of options out there with built-in organization. This bag gives you a special side pocket just for your shoes, so mud, sand, or dirt are no longer a reason to cringe when you pack.

Ban.do Work It Out Gym Bad in Lady Of Leisure

Maybe you’re one of those people who like to carry light. Go for a duffle that’s a little on the smaller side but still makes a statement.

WFLB Foldable Large Travel Duffel Bag in Flamingo

Stow everything you need and more. Not only will this high-capacity bag keep everything you could possibly need on a summer vacay, it also comes in delightful patterns like this one with tiny palm leaves and flamingos.

L.L. Bean Small Adventure Duffle

Ready for some adventure? Of course you are. L.L. Bean has a practical and affordable option for travelers who want to forgo the bells and whistles. But these duffles still come in plenty of attractive colors.

H&M Weekend Bag

Don’t overthink your needs when it comes to the right weekender bag. This faux-leather option comes in black or brown, and the throwback silo is just the right accent to your vintage-style sundress.

'Survival Of The Thickest' Season 2 Is 'And Just Like That' Meets 'Insecure'

I've been floating in the pop cultural abyss because I was clueless about how amazing Netflix's latest comedy Survival of the Thickest is! I recently watched the first couple of episodes of Season 2 and it's the funniest and rawest TV series I've watched since being persuaded to binge The White Lotus. But, that's not the show it actually reminds me of.

No, Survival of the Thickest feels like Insecure and And Just Like That had a comedic baby we get to watch grow in real time. There's the familiar supportive friend group, burgeoning careers, and passionate love stories that make you want to call your bestie to complain or scream in excitement.

I genuinely can't stop watching it and can't wait to share why you should be watching it too!

Scroll to learn everything about Survival of the Thickest and why you should watch it this weekend!

What is 'Survival of the Thickest' about?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

What happens when you face the worst breakup ever? You cry and find a way to revamp your life, according to Mavis from Survival of the Thickest.

The series revolves around her getting acclimated with being single again while juggling her floundering stylist career. She's got a supportive village, but that doesn't mean she's not prone to making mistakes or facing situations worth cackling about outside of her group chat.

Where does filming take place?

The show is primarily filmed in New York, but parts of Season 2 take place in Italy (via IMDB)!

Who's a part of the cast?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Survival of the Thickest has a sprawling cast that features some new and familiar faces. According to Marie Claire, here are the main characters who've appeared in Seasons 1 and 2:

1. Michelle Buteau as Mavis Beaumont

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Mavis Beaumont may have started off as a heartbroken stylist's assistant in Season 1 of Survival of the Thickest, but she's since gone on to build a name for herself in Season 2. She's also trying to figure out if she's going to stick with her new love interest Luca or go back to her familiar ex Jacque.

2. Taylor Selé as Jacque

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Jacque is a talented fashion photographer who seems to know what to say to uplift Mavis. Though he starts off saying and doing all the right things, Mavis catches him cheating on her and it leaves her devastated. Interestingly enough, Jacque appears to be remorseful over his huge transgression and tries to prove that he won't make the same mistake again.

3. Tasha Smith as Marley

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Marley's one of Mavis' no-nonsense besties who applies the same tenacity to her career as a finance executive. Her inspirational quips may come across as 'funny,' but she doesn't lie when she encourages those around her to move in excellence.

4. Tone Bell as Khalil

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Mavis is surrounded by even more love with the addition of the creative Khalil by her side. He has a softer approach than Marley, but he still wants the best for Mavis and has no problem helping redirect her when she's ready to throw pity parties. If only he could apply the same principles to his own love life...

5. Liza Treyger as Jade

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

If you've ever had a roommate who triggered you at every turn, you probably had someone like Jade in your life. She's the kind of person who seems like she has good intentions, but always finds a way to do something that feels toxic. Whether it's ignoring boundaries or saying the wrong thing at the worst time, Jade's going to do it.

6. Garcelle Beauvais as Natasha Karina

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Garcelle Beauvais may have left The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but you can watch her break necks and hurt feelings in Season 2 of Survival of the Thickest. She plays former '90s supermodel Natasha Karina who becomes Mavis' client after an initial period of misunderstandings.

7. Anthony Michael Lopez as Bruce

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Bruce has been on a mission to be the best assistant to Natasha Karina for as long as he can remember, so he takes it personally when Mavis doesn't seem to understand her new client in the beginning. Though he warms up to her too, his Type-A personality still follows closely behind.

8. Marouane Zotti as Luca

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Luca's all about Mavis and that's the I like it. Not only is he eye candy, but he's got enough passion stored in his body that makes me feel he's the obvious choice for our love-worn protagonist. However, only time will tell if Mavis thinks she and him are endgame or not.

9. Peppermint as Herself 

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Survival of the Thickest is all about making sure all voices, storylines and identities are championed. Having Peppermint as another close friend of Mavis rounds out her supportive village because she's big on bringing her fun-loving energy wherever she goes. And when Peppermint takes a brief break from performing to get married, Mavis is right there rooting for her.

10. Alecsys Proctor-Turner as Nala

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

My, how the tables have turned! In Season 2 of Survival of the Thickest, Mavis gets her own assistant in the form of the fashion-obsessed Nala. Though she has moments where her naive nature shines through, she helps provide even more comedic relief and moments of clarity.

How many seasons does 'Survival of the Thickest' have?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Right now, Survival of the Thickest has two hilarious seasons that are on my weekend binge-watch list.

Season 1's Episodes 

  1. Keep Your Plants Watered, Bitch.
  2. Be a Bad Boss Bitch, Bitch!
  3. You Did What in Public, Bitch?
  4. Are You Crying, Bitch?
  5. It's Any Given Sunday, Bitch!
  6. Do the Right Thang, Bitch.
  7. Let it Out, Bitch!
  8. For a Bigger Purpose, Bitch.

Season 2's Episodes

  1. When in Rome, Bitch!
  2. Dreams Do Come True at Afropunk, Bitch.
  3. You Can Heaux Your Own Way, Bitch.
  4. Mind Ya Business, Bitch!
  5. A Change Gon' Come, Bitch?
  6. The Category is Love, Bitch.
  7. You Best Come Correct, Bitch.
  8. It's Not a Mo'Ment, It's A Movement, Bitch!

Where can I watch it?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

You can watch Seasons 1 and 2 of Survival of the Thickest on Netflix. Unlike shows like Severanceor Paradise, you don't have to wait a full week to see a new episode!

Watch The Season 2 Trailer For 'Survival Of The Thickest'

The bottom line is that Survival of the Thickest is a relatable comedy that'll have you laughing, crying, punching the air, and kicking your feet in delight. So, get your charcuterie board and wine together because you won't want to budge once press play.

7 Simple Travel Hacks That'll Change The Way You Fly

Flying doesn’t always have to be a stressful, chaotic experience. In fact, there are plenty of genius tricks to keep in your back pocket to make traveling as seamless and smooth as possible! From sneaky packing strategies to in-flight essentials you didn’t know you needed, these 7 simple travelhacks might just change the way you fly forever.

Scroll on for our 7 go-to travel hacks for making the trip easier every time.

Timur Weber / PEXELS

1. Roll your clothes.

Rolling your clothes is a huge help in saving space inside your backpack, duffle bag, or suitcase. Rolling garments tightly and packing them in is surprisingly much more efficient than traditional folding methods – plus it reduces wrinkles. Rolling comes in especially handy for bulkier items like maxi dresses, jeans, and jackets.

Timur Weber / PEXELS

2. Use packing cubes.

If you want to maximize even more space within your bag, packing cubes are definitely worth investing in. You can still roll your garments to pack ‘em, but placing them in packing cubes compresses their size down further. Plus, with multiple packing cubes, you can label each one and keep your things organized and easily accessible.

Tima Miroshnichenko / PEXELS

3. Bring an empty water bottle.

If you’re not doing this at the airport, what are you doing?! Probably spending $8 on a single bottled water. C’mon – bringing an empty water bottle is the simplest of all travel hacks. Just arrive with it completely empty to later fill it after passing through the TSA line. You’ll avoid paying for overpriced airport water and have limitless refill opportunities, even after you've arrived at your destination.

Valeriia Miller / PEXELS

4. Stuff small items inside shoes.

In the vein of more space-saving packing tricks, don’t underestimate the power of your shoes! From sneakers to boots, it’s so easy to use the insides of them to pack socks, lip balms, phone chargers, jewelry, or other small items.

Anna Shvets / PEXELS

5. Use a pill organizer for small items.

You can also easily leverage a pill organizer for the smallest of your small items like rings, earrings, earplugs, and more. Of course, you can still use a pill organizer for necessary medications or those ‘just in case’ painkillers.

Samantha Mandato / PEXELS

6. Bring a travel pillow and eye mask.

Travel pillows and eye masks are absolutely essential for long flights, or even shorter trips that you foresee yourself sleeping on. Bring them on your next flight, and you’ll immediately notice the difference from not flying with these must-have accessories.

Anna Gordon / Dupe

7. Download entertainment before you board.

Finally, to avoid risking total in-flight boredom, make sure you plan ahead and download your desired form of entertainment beforehand! Since you can’t always rely on in-flight wifi, pick out and download the movies, music, or audiobooks you want to tune into in advance. For a screen-free moment, you can never go wrong with a book or crossword puzzle booklet!

51 Makeup Products to Perfect the 'Blush-Draping' Trend

The 'blush-draping' makeup trend is taking the internet by storm, and it's easy to see why. It creates a sculpted, lifted look with minimal effort, highlighting your best features and giving you a soft, natural glow. While typical blush application focuses on the apples of the cheeks, blush draping involves applying it in an upward motion to the temples, blending it toward the forehead, and even in the jaw area. It creates a high-cheekbone effect, adding warmth and a sun-kissed element that feels natural and not overdone. Convinced? We've curated a list of our favorite products to nail the look, from jelly blushes and dewy lip-stains to foundations that provide the perfect base.
