    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The beginning of a new year often has us all feeling like starting off fresh by taking on better habits, getting rid of old ones, and—most commonly—changing up our look. While others are hitting the squats and going into the salon for a pixie cut, why not start slow and steady with a cozy winter manicure in a color that feels new to you? It takes only a little courage to step outside your usual OPI Lincoln Park After Dark or Essie Bordeaux, which is all you need to kick 2022 off on a fanciful foot.  From new wintry takes on classic dark nail colors to unique pops of color that'll have you feeling the opposite of boring, these are the best nail colors to try this January and tick off all the way into spring.

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    There's no denying how the pandemic fundamentally changed the world—including how we live (and work) inside our homes. An overall trend toward celebrating the history and originality of our homes is displacing ultramodern aesthetics and sharp lines as we all look to create cozier, colorful, more personalized spaces that better suit our lifestyles. We're turning away from big-box stores and toward vintage items—first, out of necessity due to supply-chain issues, and now, for design reasons—to add charm and character to every room in the house, including the kitchen. Here, interior designers from around the South share their predictions for what's trending in kitchen design for 2022 and beyond.

Pumpkin Spice-Chocolate Marble Loaves
Credit: Linda Pugliese

When you think about fall baking, what do you imagine? We imagine cozying up on our screened porches on a weekend morning, wrapped under a plaid blanket, holding a cup of hot coffee, enjoying the steaming slice of coffee cake that we just pulled from the oven. Perhaps you imagine gathering around the family dinner table with a large pot of hearty chili and a basket of fresh, homemade dinner rolls. Whatever fall baking recipe you choose, these delicious bread recipes will suit the occasion. Coffee cakes coated in sugary glazes and smothered in rich caramel, icebox dinner rolls perfect for sopping up Thanksgiving gravy, classic poppy seed muffins, moist banana bread recipes, and countless fluffy dinner rolls recipes – these bread recipes and baking recipes are the soul-soothing and heart-warming classic Southern comfort desserts, just like your grandma used to bake. That is, as long as your grandma baked Bananas Foster Coffee Cake with Vanilla-Rum Sauce.
