Your Homework This Fall: Get Your Sh*t Together

I don't know about you, but the roller coaster “chug chug chug” ascent towards September always fills me with anticipation. I’m transported back to the Supermarket Sweep–esque shopping trip for new notebooks and new shoes, and with them, the delusional belief that this is the year dopey-but-dreamy jock Gerard notices me if I just douse myself in enough Gap Om fragrance (which is back, by the way!). That back-to-school energy is worth stealing, even as adults. After all, who couldn’t use a...

Last night I dreamt that I wasn’t invited to Taylor Swift’s wedding. Now, in real life, I also wasn’t invited to Taylor Swift’s wedding. But Dream Megan was deeply offended by this. Fine, I thought. Maybe not the ceremony. But I should at least be someone's +1 at the after-party? When I woke up, I laughed at how ridiculous it all was. But you know how sometimes a dream hangs around for awhile? Like when you’re annoyed at your spouse because Dream Them flirted with someone else? This was kind...

📽️ Watch the latest episode of Reset Mode! Megan here -- This weekend is Pride in New York City, making it as good a time as any to say: the icon Meg Stalter I joke that Style Girlfriend's elevator pitch is, "We're like a small GQ, if GQ was run entirely by women.” Here's what that means in practice: Our all-female editorial team shares trusted men's lifestyle advice and product recommendations with an audience of guys (like you!) who care what women think. The result: The Style Girlfriend...

Here's something women wish more men knew: A quality pair of sunglasses says more about you than you think. Nice shades say: You can trust me. Why? Because I haven't sat on these. Or left them behind at a restaurant, wedged between the salt and pepper shakers on the table. I never spent the afternoon retracing my steps while quietly berating myself for being an idiot, hoping they'd turn up at the coffee shop or the grocery store. That's why nice sunglasses matter! Not because they're...

Megan here -- As a professional "look good < > feel good" evangelist, I love reading about all the stuff people do to set themselves up for the day before getting dressed. Do you do a shot of olive oil? Hop up and down for five minutes? Run through your daily to-do's while lying on a PEMF mat like a hot dog on a gas station grill? I love it. All of it. My own morning routine is cobbled together from too many sources to remember at this point. It will also inevitably change, but here's how my...

Megan here -- I accidentally sparked concern with a friend recently when I asked if she, too, ever gets totally overwhelmed with a sense of existential dread out of nowhere? Sometimes, I told her, I'll be toasting an English muffin and think, Oh, we're almost out of English muffins. I need to buy more at the store. Totally normal, right? But then I think about how, after I bring home them home, we'll just eat those, necessitating another trip to the store to buy yet more English muffins. And...

At the risk of starting this off with a humblebrag: I don’t get pimples very often. Not to say I’m without any beauty woes (baby-fine hair, hello), but acne is not something I usually deal with. Recently, though, I had a throuple of zits pop up on my chin. Red, throbby, the type of cluster that makes you wonder if it’s actually becoming sentient. I knew what I had to do. In the back of my medicine cabinet, I dug out the pimple patches that always come to my rescue at times like this. I know...

Heads up: Mother’s Day is May 10. While time off from cooking breakfast or hunting down missing socks is great (the baseline, in fact)…a thoughtful gift still matters. A lot. So, let me shop for your Mother’s Day gift. I mean it! Hit REPLY, and tell me a little about who you’re shopping for. Your own mom? A new mom running on no sleep? The mother-in-law you’re still trying to impress? I’ll send you back some solid options. Yes, me. Personally. No AI-generated hallucinations (I promise you she...
