Can we have a Cannes explainer? Like, what's the schedule? Why does it last so long? When does it end? Oh, and, why should we care?

Where are her lips? The nude lip trend needs to go. It's not attractive. Some bright red lips would've totally made the outfit.

DC or the state? If possible, I'd try to find a short-term sublet for 1-3 months, so you can learn where the best neighborhoods are, etc., before you commit to a longer-term place.

You can find good deals on gently used, former lease cars. They're usually 2-3 years old, have maybe 30,000 miles on them. They're much cheaper than "new" cars and come with 2-3 years of warranty, which can save you tons of money and hassle compared to an older used car.

Tilda Swinton actually seems friendly, especially compared to J. Jones.

See the Cole Haan Air Tali Wedge. They have Nike Air technology built into the soles, so they feel as comfortable as sneakers. They've been selling the same shoe for going on 3 years now because they're so popular and they are good for every season. They're on the pricey side, but if you sign up for their email…

The only time that I consciously managed to lose weight and keep it off over a significant period of time, was when I cut out one meal per day over the course of about 2-3 months. I did this by either splitting a typical lunch (like two halves of a sandwich) over lunch and dinner or eating a later lunch (like at 3…

6:00 AM: Turn off alarm. Put head back on pillow.

You're married? Wow! Me, too. We, like, have sooo much in common. Let's have lunch.

That green shirt must be stiiinky and about to fall apart. There's no way there can be too many duplicates of that shirt to wear.
