To say Michael Douglas has great hair is an understatement. Rather, I’d say he’s had a career of exceptional hair. Besides, we all can use a little inspiration from time-to-time, and what is the point of a proper Throwback Thursday really if not to inspire? That’s right dear reader, inspiration is the point. I’ve long …

Aesop’s Great Breath
If Kim Kardashian’s sixth sense is an ability to ‘smell cavities’, surely she would recommend Aesop’s new mouthwash. Why? It’s pretty great.

As we are well aware nothing signifies pure, unadulterated luxury more than absolutely anything Hermès – this limited edition refillable atomizer is the perfect example. Modeled after the iconic ‘H’ padlock, the …
