Bikini Prep
Skin looking a bit Blanche(d)? Since it's almost time for your swimsuit to come out of its retirement home, you might wanna do something. Get gorgeous in three steps (exfoliate, de-hair, and tan) with eco-products that won't hurt your skin or the planet.

...heavyweight furniture company 4Korners. The other corner: Your tiny apartment. Don't throw in the towel just yet - Brooklyn's 4K builds knockout two-in-one pieces – a bench, bed, end table, and stools. The Platform Bed = dresser too with four large drawers underneath, and the Bar Stools work as end tables when you turn 'em on their side.

Ready to start interrogating fabrics before you buy more clothes? The labels, anyway (poly-acetate-what?). For an open and shut case, (ice) pick Marchuska, a basic tee line for both girls and guys. Ladies: Slip into a short, long, or three-quarter sleeve number like Women's Mseries T with folded-up, dress-shirt cuffs. Guys: Try the short-sleeve Men's Mseries T with epaulettes.
