FASHION: GUCCI’S HORSEBIT BAG IS AN INVESTMENT
Some bags come and go, but Gucci’s Horsebit 1955 has earned its forever status. With its sleek silhouette, iconic equestrian hardware, and a roster of cool-girl fans (Alexa Chung included), it feels just as relevant now as it did decades ago—never flashy, always chic. If you’re looking for a timeless investment you’ll reach for year after year, this is one of those rare pieces that truly delivers.
WELLNESS: #CLEANSETOK NEEDS A CHECK
Parasite cleanses may be having a moment online, but git experts say most people don’t need them, and in some cases they can do more harm than good! True parasitic infections are rare and require proper medical testing and treatment (yes, including the dreaded stool test), not influencer-backed supplements. If gut health is the goal, doctors agree that the real luxury stays being in consistent basics: fiber rich foods, hydration, and evidence-backed probiotics over quick-fix cleanses.
TRAVEL: ANTICIPATED HOTEL OPENINGS IN 2026
If hotels are your thing, then you’ll love what 2026 has in store. From a powder-pink Orient Express palace in Venice and ultra-quiet wellness retreats in Estonia, to new Auberge openings in London and Dallas and Aman’s first-ever resort in Mexico, the next wave of hotels spans nearly every continent. There’s no shortage of dreamy new stays to bookmark.
Aggie Wiggs has receded from public life since the death of her young son, and is grieving at her own pace. She’s also an author but unable to write, feeling like a ghost of her former self. However, Aggie suddenly finds an unlikely subject for a new book & finds new purpose unraveling the mystery behind her neighbor, Nile Jarvis', vanished wife + his suspicious dealings.

The Mongolian Cashmere Crewneck is the kind of wear-with-everything staple you’ll reach for on repeat — soft enough to wear solo, polished enough to layer under coats. And don’t sleep on the cashmere-lined leather gloves: sleek on the outside, seriously cozy on the inside, and a quiet upgrade to your cold-weather uniform.

ON REINVENTION: “Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.” - Seneca
Stop postponing your life and start showing up fully right now. Each day is a fresh chance to reset, choose differently, and live with intention—regardless of what came before.
