Papaya started in 2003 as a mother and daughter team with only 20 blank greeting cards on a dining room table. Fueled by the need to create beautiful artwork on anything they could think of, they were off and running and never looked back. Today their team has grown and their product list has grown, but everyone is still family. Water bottles, calendars, journals – maybe even a shower curtain – everything is branded with the creativity and thoughtfulness that is uniquely Papaya. We definitely know where our cards will be from this season.

To all the late-night bartenders, cubicle warriors, partiers, and new mommies out there: let me just start by saying you’re welcome.  This Lancôme moisturizer is definitely one of the things you need for your oshitimrunninglate makeup bag (along with a rosy blush, icy eyeshadow, thickening mascara, lip gloss and gum – of course), but I digress.  Here in the Swank office, we only get what’s know as an L-C-D tan.  So when we discovered this phenomenal find, it may as well been handed to us directly from [insert-famous-makeup-artist-here].

It not only has SPF 15, but also four perfect tint options natural enough to blend smoothly even on a freshly washed face. Which, admittedly, is sometimes done in the employee restroom five minutes ’til we’re supposed to log in.

This seriously hot lace slip is just stunning. With sheer metallic stretch lace, a super sexy cut-out on the back, and a deep-V neckline – we can’t wait to wear it out. We just love the black lace trim accents. Rawr.

Killer jeans rank super high on our ever expanding list of needs wants. So when one of our favorite shops let us know of their new arrivals, we didn’t hesitate to clickity-click our way through the check out line.

Form fitting and flattering (a nice combo indeed) the vintage, wide-stitch, boot cut seemed to call our name. With tons of washes, cuts, embellishments and stitching options, you will definitely be MISSing out if you don’t at least consider getting a pair (or two) soon.
