It’s getting to that time of year again–you know, when you pack up your skirts and dresses and switch over to wool pants for everything (that’s a good date night look, right?). Instead of giving up showing a little leg completely why not buy one pair of great tights that will add some oomph to your outfits while keeping you free from frostbite. The Thigh High tights by G=9.8, a France-based lingerie company, succeed on every level:
- First, they’re easy to get in and out of, where waist-high tights can be a bit of struggle to adjust under your pencil skirt after each bathroom trip.
- Second, they’re available in more than just black and one should never underestimate the appeal of a pop of color until you’ve paired it with a simple dress for a night out.
- And last, but definitely not least, these get a big green stamp of approval. Why? They’re made from recycled pine fiber (along with rest of the G=9.8 line).

There are few articles of clothing that women love more than the little black dress when it comes to go-with-everything reliability. The right one can dress up, down and just about everywhere in between. However, there’s one thing that warrants a spot in your wardrobe even more than the LBD: The Little Black Tee. It works when pulled on to accompany your yoga pants on a late night run to the store, paired with jeans and heels for happy-hour drinks with friends or matched with a sleek pencil skirt and pearls for work. The best ones are incredibly comfortable and feature flattering fits–just like the Under the Canopy Lucy Crew Tee from Nimli. Click here to read more

It may seem counter-intuitive to slather on some mud when you’re looking for a little pampering and skin restoration, but the mucky stuff can do wonders for your complexion. Better yet, it can do those wonders naturally.
Alaska Glacial Mud from NIMLI is made from some of the most mineral-rich, pure glacial clay in the world, which detoxifies, exfoliates and softens the skin with over 60 major and trace elements that promote healthy skin regeneration. To enrich your epidermis even more, Alaska Glacial Co. has added certified organic and wildcrafted botanical extracts, including kelp, nettle, elderflower and blueberry, and for olfactory purposes, you can choose between lavender-peppermint, vanilla-lavender or unscented–all of which make for a great glacial facial.
