Keep Your Noggin Warm With Our Top 10 Earmuffs And Berets

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageIf you’ve ever visited or lived in a big city, then you know that there are a variety of characters one can encounter on the streets. My way of avoiding most of the unsavory individuals out there is to put on big headphones and blast some Lady Gaga. That way, my ears are warm and I avoid being bothered. But there are times when I don’t feel like listening to music AND I’m freezing to death. That’s where a nice pair of earmuffs and a chic beret come in. Earmuffs can be made with anything from cozy cashmere to faux fur. You can wear them with the slouchy berets I’ve found and if you don’t want to do double duty, just pull down the beret to cover your ears! I’m in love with the Oversized Button Beret found at Free People. For earmuffs, my choice would be a pair of Unisex Ear Muffs from American Apparel. Check out my slideshow to see all the goodies that will keep your ears and head toasty.

Hot In The Hive: UVSunSense Sun Monitor Wristbands

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageTime flies when you’re having fun in the sun. One minute you’re happy as a clam, playing volleyball or reading a book on the beach, the next you’re stomping down the aisles at Walgreens in search of aloe for that gnarly sunburn you’ve earned. You already know that too much sun exposure is harmful, and you’ve had enough peeling shoulders in your time to recognize the importance of sunscreen, but even the most seasoned of sun-baskers have a hard time keeping of track of their last sunscreen application or even knowing exactly when it’s time to call it a day and take cover. Enter UVSunSense sun monitoring wristbands. Worn on your wrist in addition to a nice slathering of SPF 15 or higher, the band’s surface changes color to alert you when it’s time to either slop on some more sunscreen or find the nearest shady spot ASAP. Sure, they might be a pretty dorky-looking excuse for a bangle, but they look a heck of a lot cooler than a blistering lobster complexion!

Price: $6.89 for a pack of 7
Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the UVSunSense Wristbands to the Hive.
