    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.

For many Southerners, waking up to a basket full of goodies on Easter morning sits high on the list of favorite childhood memories. The pastel Peeps, chocolate bunnies, and jelly bean-filled eggs—ah, now that's the good stuff. And later on the other side of the secret, getting to surprise your little ones is just as exciting. There's no need to be stressed about what to stuff into those Easter baskets—because the Easter bunny always comes through. (That's us.) Pack in all the sugar to your heart's delight, and then throw a few of these fun and unique Easter basket stuffers perfect for toddlers. We paired some of our favorite Easter basket ideas for boys and girls with fun toys, crafts, and treats to put inside. From classic children's books to colorful art supplies to summer-ready swim goggles, these Easter basket ideas for toddlers are too cute to pass up.
