New wrist bling from Louis Vuitton? We’ll take it! Fashion and technology have been collaborating a lot in the more recent years due to the digitally inclined society. Louis Vuitton is the newest brand to join in on the game with a fly smartwatch equipped with exclusive features.
The watch rings in anywhere from $2,450 to $2,900. Wow! That’s like buying one of their bags. Is it worth it? Well, it has apps like “The Flight” that informs you of upcoming flights, gate information, delays and more. Sounds worth it to me.
The smartwatch is only one product of Louis Vuitton’s goal of “participating in the future,” according to Michael Burke, CEO. Their luggage, footwear, and ready-to-wear are the next products that will be connected to technology.
The watch tutorial and information on purchasing is on LouisVuitton.com.
Today’s Bombshell is full of inspiration and it definitely shows throughout her style. Behold, Penelope from Dominican Republic, who currently resides in New York.
She writes, “I describe my style as effortlessly chic with a tropical flair. I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic and my Caribbean roots have always deeply influenced my love for bright colors, texture and movement. However, growing up in a conservative town in Connecticut, my attraction to bold hues and prints was often misunderstood and at times made fun of by my own friends.”
“Now in my 30s, though I have a clear understanding of what works best for me, I continue to experiment with clothes, often even pushing myself out of the comfort zone. In my opinion, the F in “fashion” stands for “fun” and there is absolutely nothing to lose in trying something new. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss but at the end of it all, the only thing that matters is your personal style journey.”
“In the meantime, I will continue to cocktail on the sleekness of New York City with a splash of island vibes and a few drops of New England sophistication. Cheers!”

The block is hot! According to Hypebeast, Louis Vuitton has canceled all forthcoming Supreme pop up shops, and have canceled sales online. The issue? The Hype is simply too much.
Hypebeast writes, “The foreshadowing was on the wall for everyone to read when Community Board No. 2 denied Supreme its planned location back in May citing that previous Supreme releases in New York City have caused mayhem and that the brand could not “articulate how this product launch will benefit the community in any way.'”
Anyone who finds themselves by the Supreme store in Soho on any regular day has undoubtedly seen ridiculous long lines and crowds.
Reports from the Supreme x Louis Vuitton pop ups in LA described long lines and some fights. Lord knows what could ensue in NYC.
Though the police have informed people who have been camping out for days that the pop up is canceled, some don’t want to believe the news, and have decided to wait anyway. Seriously, does Supreme sprinkle crack on their clothes?
Her watercolor print dress features a round neckline, keyhole detailing, long semi-sheer sleeves, slip pockets, a fitted waist, and knee-length hemline.
Great dress!

Climate change is looming over our heads and tons of fast food ads are being shoved down our throats. But, the world isn’t over yet. Our minds can rest at ease knowing how many health conscious lifestyle bloggers there are looking out for the us who don’t place health and fitness in our top five on the list of priorities. But there’s one who takes the cake, and probably swapped it for an organic one. Hannah Bronfman isn’t your typical “avacado toast, acai bowl, matcha obsessed” Instagram blogger. She hits the gym…hard…like American Ninja Warrior hard. She spins on the turntables at some of the biggest events around the world. A red carpet it-girl and THE go-to person for the latest in beauty hacks, organic food spots in New York, and spa treatments, Bronfman stays on the pulse of everything health, beauty, and fitness oriented, hence her lifestyle blog HBFIT. Where else would we find out about microcurrent facials? And how does even squeeze in the time?
With Instagram being so “of-the-minute” as it relates to how quickly posts are shared, Bronfman loves showcasing how quickly she gets ready when there’s no glam squad. A little oil-free tinted moisturizer by Honest Beauty and she’s good to go!
When she typically adds color, Bronfman likes to make things pop with a touch of mascara on her upper lashes and either a red or plum to tint her lips. Stila’s “Stay All Day” Liquid Lipstick in “Beso” ($24) is usually her top choice.
Spinning on the ones and twos may be work for Hannah, but she easily hits the right tune with her eye makeup. A winged eye for her leather top and slicked back hair for a classy-meets-rebel vibe. A subtle smokey eye for nighttime to add a little dimension to her lids. And even a bit of glitter on her lash line during a Coachella set. It’s all about those tiny nuances that make the impact.
Whatever the occasion, she always meshes a classic face with doses of personality, especially when it comes to her nails. She swears by the work of nail artist Mei Kawajiri, who creates fun, elaborate nail designs respective to occasion and even pop culture. From Kimojis to shimmering stars to bridal caricatures of Hannah and her husband, Brendan Fallis, for her wedding day, Hannah loves expressing herself not only through what she wears, but through her gorgeous manicures.
Her beauty regimen is just as stringent as her workouts, as she’s a firm believer in taking care of her body from the inside out. From boxing to pilates, you can almost always see her working up a sweat on her Instagram stories, in between DJ’ing and vacationing with her gorgeous mother, of course.
Here’s to this week’s beauty crush, Hannah Bronfman. Not only does she use her platform to promote a healthy lifestyle through clean eating and fitness, but she also encourages young women to live a fulfilling life through self-love and owning inner-confidence, despite insecurities. We couldn’t agree more!

People choose to smoke for all sorts of reasons. Some like the nicotine hit that smoking gives, whilst others smoke simply because they think it’s cool and stylish. Smoking is often seen as being a rebellious and anti-establishment activity, and many smokers find that image attractive. Yet, the damage that smoking does to a person’s physical appearance is far from attractive. We’re all aware of the harm that smoking can do to our lungs and other parts of our bodies, but we tend to ignore the damage done to our appearance through long-term smoking.
Most people are aware that smoking involves breathing in a veritable array of harmful chemicals, which can cause health problems throughout the body. When it comes to your skin, breathing in carbon monoxide from cigarettes reduces the levels of oxygen circulating through your bloodstream, which in turn impacts on the skin’s ability to regenerate and repair itself.
Since the skin does not receive sufficient oxygen to function effectively, it tends to lose colour and radiance. As the skin’s ability to regenerate is impaired, more wrinkles appear, and ageing is accelerated. This lack of oxygen means that the skin cannot repair itself as quickly as for a non-smoker, and it becomes increasingly drawn, tired-looking and sallow.
However, more and more people have found that vaping gives them all of the things they enjoy about smoking, without the harmful effects that cigarettes bring. Vaping involves the use of an e-cigarette, which heats up flavoured e-liquids, to provide the same nicotine sensation, but without the tar and harmful chemicals that are present in regular cigarettes.
E-liquids do contain some additives, but these are relatively harmless, when compared with cigarettes. In fact, research carried out by Public Health England (PHE) suggests that vaping is 95% less harmful than smoking regular cigarettes, and the NHS has publicly endorsed it as a proven method of giving up smoking. Making the switch from tobacco smoking to using e-liquids is a smart move, and you are likely to see significant health improvements by doing so, and not just in terms of the condition of your skin.
Your skin’s health should show signs of recovery after just a short amount of time, once you switch from cigarettes to vaping. Of course, the longer you’ve smoked, the more damage will have been sustained, so noticeable improvements could take longer if you were a heavy or long-term smoker. The skin’s ability to regenerate itself is quite remarkable, so with patience, even the most damaged skin should eventually look visibly better after quitting smoking.
Now that vaping has moved from the sidelines to the mainstream, it’s the perfect time to ditch those conventional cigarettes and switch to e-cigarettes. Your face and skin will look much healthier, and you’ll feel better throughout your body. The longer you leave it before trying to quit, the more harm you are doing to your body, and the less chance your body has of recovering. E-cigarettes could very well be the answer, to help you quit smoking once and for all.
