The following is a guest post from our friends at Lucky.
Taking a bath is mind-numblingly relaxing, but it’s sort of a rare luxury. Especially for twenty-somethings. Especially in New York. Most of us live with multiple roommates that we don’t even want to think about sharing a tub with—if there even is a bathtub. And taking a bath requires more time than a shower—who has that?
When I moved into my own apartment—all 200 square feet of it—it was one of the things I was most looking forward to, despite the fact that I’d never taken a leisurely bath before in my life (that last one I could remember was when I was a child and baths existed only to get clean). Now I’ve got it down to a blood-pressure-dropping science—and this formula relaxes me more than a massage, acupuncture, or glass of Malbec

Tommy Ton for Club Monaco backpack
Is it true? Has the backpack made a comeback? This utilitarian and practical carryall in its modern, zippered incarnation dates back all the way to the turn of the 20th century, though humans have been carrying stuff on their backs for literally thousands of years.
As far as the backpack as fashion accessory, we only have to look as far back as the early 90’s when this hands-free handbag was all the rage – remember Prada’s mini nylon version? Or the girls from Clueless matching their mini packs to their over-the-knee socks? Back then, it was the smaller the better.
Nowadays, the backpack trend has officially returned (as all trends eventually do) but in a more practical (there’s that word again!) medium size. So, what do you think? Will you be strapping on a knapsack or will you leave this one on the runway?

As much as we like huge shopping malls, we can’t help but miss the excitement of checking out charming little specialty shops in town and buying stuff that not every other person in the neighborhood already owns.
That’s why we have to give props to Target for bringing us The Shops at Target, which finds Target partnering directly with shop owners of specialty stores and local boutiques to co-create affordable, limited-edition collections for shoppers everywhere.
Among the stores first up on the spotlight is The Webster, a clothing and accessories shop that exude everything that makes Miami a tropical paradise: banana leaf prints, breezy beach deco-art and more. And at the price range of $7.99 to $49.99, we’re sure you won’t resist their fun, fab pieces!
The Webster at Target collection will be available May 6, 2012 at all Target stores and Target.com.
