The netherlands of one’s dresser drawers get stale over time. Really stale.
Well, I suppose that’s what poor air circulation, stagnant clothes and varnished wood will do.
Nobody is a fan of musty smelling undergarments, especially if they’re of the La Perla, Agent Provocateur or Kiki de Montparnasse variety (heck, or even Victoria’s Secret). This is where drawer liners and sachets come in majorly handy, like Sabon Rose Drawer Liners ($18). Each chic box of Sabon houses three sheets that can be cut to a specific drawer size and come in three olfactory-seducing fragrances: Bamboo, Vanilla and Rose.

Q: It happens every year. Once summer fades and the weather transitions from balmy warm to chilly cold, my skin goes haywire — not particularly good for self-esteem. How can I calm my complexion and do some major climate damage control?

Macy’s is going the way of green, eight brands at a time, with the launch of their store-in-a-store concept Beautiful Planet at their location in Herald Square.
With people turning to eco-consciousness as a lifestyle rather than a passing trends, Beautiful Planet is giving consumers the choice of using natural, paraben-free beauty products that work just as well as other Sephora or luxe department store brands. Even the decor itself is green-minded and sustainable: bamboo, recycled metals, low VOC paints and coconut shell tiles. Each brand comes with a description printed on post-consumer recycled paper, as well.
