As we are coming up on 30 (yes, coming up on – still have another glowing year of our 20s left, don’t freak out), we are becoming increasingly more aware of how we are preparing our skin for aging. Yes we know, embrace your age and yada yada yada, but, come on, we all want to look this age for as long as possible. We are particularly keen to find the best eye serums – and the market is flush with brands claiming to have the best products! Most recently, we partnered with Shopping Links to try out the Collagen Collection from Vivo Per Lei’s high performance skincare laboratories. (more…)

Treat Yourself in 2017
2017 is off to a great start for us over here at TCP. Seriously, really great. Sure, we have had our share of bumps in the road already with wedding planning, house maintenance, etc etc – but even these things have made us more resilient. It is of the utmost importance for us to remain in a comfortable mindset as our calendar is already filling up with events, trips and more. One way that we are able to do that is to make sure that we always carve out time for ourselves. Whether its meditating, writing in a journal or taking a relaxing detox bath, we must make that a priority. For my birthday a few weeks ago, Cath gave me a “Start 2017 off on the right foot” care package of sorts and it has the PERFECT set of products to do just that.
Do yourself a favor and make YOU a priority this year. Here are a few things to help you do just that!
A Fashionably Late New Years with Minted
Planning a wedding has brought an entirely new meaning to the phrase fashionably late. I am the most fashionably late person I have ever met, but mix that with the year of a wedding and you’re looking at a lot of things not getting done.
New Year, New Obsessions
We hope you all had a fantastic holiday! We put in a lot of time with our families and have been doing some major goal setting for 2017. We will continue to share those goals with you throughout the next few weeks but for now, we’ll just share our newest obsessions. If you’re like us you probably got some Christmas money or were looking for a gift that Santa just didn’t bring you this year and are already to do some more shopping.
Happy New Year! We think its going to be the best yet.

Day 12: Need Supply Co
We are oh so lucky to have internationally known retailer Need Supply Co in our hometown! Recently, we attended the store’s reopening after their remodel and we were so amazed by what they had done! Not only is the shop perfectly curated, but the shop itself is like a piece of art. If you’re in Richmond, make sure you stop by and see for yourself. For now, shop some of our favorites from their site and enter the giveaway below. From gifts for him and her, to must-have tees for yourself, you are sure to always find something to lust after on needsupply.com! (more…)
Day 11: Let’s Talk Towels
Today’s the day that I give you all a shameless plug for another little project I work on! For the past year or so my mom has been importing Turkish Towels and to say that the business has taken off would be the understatement of a lifetime. In the past year, she has expanded the inventory to include Robes, Blankets and Hand Towels and now has our bests friends (another mother/daughter duo) selling them as well. (more…)
Day 10: VICHY
We were first introduced to Vichy courtesy of Babbleboxx, during NYFW! Between that *clean* New York air and the long days during Fashion Week, our skin was CRAVING these three masks. The deep skin detox from the Purifying Clay Mask was perfect for the beginning of the week, getting our skin prepared to endure the long days in the city. The Quenching Mineral Mask helped to keep our skin hydrated at night after a long day and the Double Glow Peal Mask helped to brighten our not-so-fresh skin at the end of the long week! (more…)
Day 9: Daniel Wellington
Yet another product we love: Daniel Wellington and you should too! Their classic watches are perfect for everyone and we love the variety of bands that they offer. This year you should probably get them for everyone on your list. This holiday season, use our code THECRYSTALPRESS15 for 15% off your purchase! (more…)
Day 8: Drift/Riot
Richmond is becoming more and more amazing everyday, we swear it. Home to so many brilliant artists and musicians, new places are popping up more quickly than we can keep up. Our favorite local jewelry designer, Kristy of drift/riot, just opened up a shop with her husband in Church Hill called Dear Neighbor and we are in love. The shop is perfectly curated and full of personality. You can find handmade goods from around Richmond and beyond, and of course plenty of drift/riot jewelry. (more…)
Day 7: TIJN Eyewear
If you follow along with us regularly, you know we LOVE working with TIJN Eyewear and have featured them consistently on our blog for the past few months. We are huge suckers for a mirrored lens, so we especially like the variety of mirrored options, as well as a variety of frames and colors. (more…)
