October 21, 2018 at 06:30PM Everyone knows that getting your fill of fruits and vegetables is important (it’s basically the first thing in life we learn about food). But sometimes even after a chia pudding breakfast, quinoa bowl lunch, and gluten-free pasta dinner you realize, “Wait—did I eat a single fruit or vegetable today?” You’re not alone. Intuitive eating coach Alissa Rumsey MS, RD says many Americans don’t hit the recommended five servings a day—but the good news is it doesn’t require a total diet overhaul to remedy the situation. “A lot of people aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables,” Rumsey says. “It’s not enough to know fruits and vegetables are healthy—which most people do. In fact, this feeling that we ‘should’ eat vegetables often means that we dread eating them and contributes to not wanting to have them more often.” #Mood. “Make the decision to eat fruits and vegetables from a place of self care.” So how do you get over the “should” hurdle? Rumsey advises her clients to take a step back from that restrictive mindset. “Once you do this, and are allowing yourself to eat whatever you want, you can then make the decision to eat fruits and vegetables from a place of self care.” From there, it’s all about finding ways you like to eat the fresh stuff. “Often people who dislike veggies are used to eating them raw, boiled, or plain. No wonder they don’t like them!” Rumsey says. “Veggies don’t have to be plain to get the

Proof you need more long cozy layers in your life

2 min read

October 21, 2018 at 01:04PM With a chill in the air, it’s officially time to pile on warmer clothes. From chunky long sweaters to plush coats, breathing new life into cozy layers is essential for a wardrobe fall reset. “I love the idea of a cozy sweater or turtleneck under a blazer,” says Caroline Belhumeur, Vince’s creative director. For a touch of femininity, she recommends pairing back the menswear-inspired with a pleated skirt. When going for a textured look, Belhumeur says, “turtlenecks styled under sweaters or dresses feels fresh and modern. Layering also helps to extend the life of the garment from one season to the next.” Another option when styling versatile pieces like a silk slip dress? Add a cardigan or wrap-style coat to create a transitional look that goes from day to night. Pulling a long sweater over leggings is another option that’ll take you from the gym to just about anywhere. For a trend-focused look, Moda Operandi buyer, Lisa Ruffle says it’s all about plaid this season. “We saw it in many iterations from outerwear to accessories, but the plaid trouser was undoubtedly the hero piece of the season,” she says, adding that’s it’s a polished alternative to go-to denim. For a cozy effect, Ruffle says, “it looks best paired back with other cozy textures such as cashmere, chunky cable knits, and oversized shearling, worn with a great boot.” From classic to cool, shop 12 cozy layers ahead.
