Debutante season may not start until the fall but shopping has already begun for that perfect debut dress.

Let Me Be Blunt. The It Girl Haircut.

Feb 26, 2015 | scoop team

Too many of us have spent too many years weighed down (literally and figuratively) by the expectation that sexy women have long hair. While long, blended-and-extended layers will continue to be beaten into the ground by the VS Angels, the look has truly been done. Getting up the nerve to take the chop can be as empowering and ego-boosting as trading in stiletto pumps and bandage […]

The Latest Hair Trend is called Ecaille. It’s from Paris.

Feb 19, 2015 | scoop team

Ombre has ruled the hair world for quite some time, but it is finally receiving some competition in the newest highlighting technique from the City of Lights. It’s called “Ecaille” in French, or “Tortoiseshell”, and it looks exactly how it sounds. With tortoiseshell hair, as with the ever-beloved accessory, you have a richer, more dimensional color. […]

What oh What to Wear to the Sadie Hawkins Dance?

Dec 19, 2014 | scoop team

The good news? It’s in the girls’ hands, which means the plans, rides, reservations, after party issues and her date will be set well in advance [unlike the boys, who have been known to leave it til the day of to focus].  The bad news? It’s another HS dance, and another chance to argue about […]

Happy Hour Hair – The Secret To Self-Preservation During the Holidays

Dec 8, 2014 | scoop team

I had an EIGHTEEN HOUR day last week, y’all. And the crazy part is, there are many more ahead of me between now and New Years. Shopping, partying, cooking, cleaning, prepping, gifting, decorating, hosting, ugly-sweatering… *insert a cliche “tis the season” comment, etc etc*. But seriously, show of hands? I have a sneaking suspicion I’m not the only […]

Cold Weather blows in this popular style ~ The Hair Tuck.

Dec 7, 2014 | Susu

All the cool girls with long hair are doing it.  My heroes at HonestlyWTF show us that you can get a bob-for-a-day just by tucking your hair into your turtleneck, and pulling some piece-y pieces out (of course, cuz piece-y is forever cool).   Apparently, it helps to tease the back into a bump and […]

The new Onward Reserve Men’s store

Nov 30, 2014 | scoop team

It happens every single Christmas Eve. I find myself wandering aimlessly around the already crowded mall searching frantically for something special for my husband, dad and brother only to walk out frustrated and with a handful of gift cards and socks. Why are men some of the hardest to shop for during the holidays? Instead […]

H & M SouthPark Mall to open this Thursday.

Nov 5, 2014 | Susu

With much less fanfare than prior openings, Charlotte’s newest H&M opens this week at SP Mall in the MACY’s wing…I guess since we’re all old hat on H&M with the two we’ve already got.  With pretty much the same opening plan as their other stores, this 21,000-square-foot store will open its doors at noon Thursday with […]
