Boston is a city of neighborhoods, and where you live and spend your time can define your experience in The Hub. History is baked into every corner—there’s nothing more Boston than running into an actor dressed as a Revolutionary War–era tour guide checking their iPhone—but that doesn’t mean that the city is frozen in time. The glittering Seaport, packed with skyscrapers, has sprung up in the past decade; Jamaica Plain’s trails loop around Jamaica Pond and through the vast Arnold Arboretum, part of the city’s vast Emerald Necklace of green spaces; and Dorchester’s six-mile span encompasses the most multicultural and…
It’s taken Trish Wescoat Pound around three decades to become an overnight success. Her brand TWP, has the wind at its sails after moving from a presentation format to the runway and greatly expanding its retail footprint. An assist from the designer’s old pal, the prolific fashion entrepreneur Andrew Rosen, certainly hasn’t hurt.Wescoat Pound’s bread and butter remains a type of elevated American sportswear: familiar pieces with a tweak here and there impart a sense of cool girl ease to classic shirting, full-cut pants, and crisp, masculine outerwear silhouettes. “Borrowed from him, but claimed by her,” is how she put…
The goal each and every day of your life is to gradually grow stronger on the inside, so that less and less on the outside can affect your inner wellness without your conscious permission. Truth be told, how you cope with unexpected problems and frustrations can easily be the difference between living a good life and living an unhealthy one. If you choose unhealthy coping mechanisms like avoidance or denial, for example, you can quickly turn a tough situation into a tragic one. And sadly, this is a common mistake many people make. When you find yourself facing a disheartening…
Technicians work on an engine at GE Aerospace’s engine shop in Lafayette, Indiana.Leslie Josephs/CNBCRIO DE JANEIRO — Airplane engine makers have fallen short of what they promised airlines, major carriers’ CEOs say, a problem vexing an industry that has struggled for years with aircraft shortages and more recently, a doubling of fuel prices.It’s a paradox: Engine makers dazzled carriers with more fuel-efficient options for new planes from Boeing and Airbus. But production shortfalls and disappointing reliability with those engines are becoming costly problems, CEOs said in interviews at the industry’s largest annual gathering here. Airline executives said they’re being forced…
While many designers strive to be all things to all people, Lorenzo Serafini chose focus for resort. That meant concentrating on what has long been Alberta Ferretti’s calling card: the dress. “I wasn’t interested in reproducing the past,” he said. “What attracted me was the spirit of that woman: natural, sensual, and positive.”Ferretti’s signature languid silhouettes were rendered in attractive bias-cut gowns elongating the figure; decorative seams spiraled into rosettes and soft ruching, replacing traditional embroidery with technical ingenuity. It was decoration by construction rather than embellishment, a modern take on the elegant glamour of 1930s dressing.Yet Serafini’s romanticism comes…
U.S. households grew more worried over their financial situation, with the share of those seeing things as much worse than they were 12 months ago hitting a nearly four-year high, according to a Federal Reserve Bank of New York survey.While the central bank’s monthly Survey of Consumer Expectations, released Monday, showed the inflation outlook mostly unchanged, the general perception of conditions deteriorated.The share of those seeing their current situation as “much worse” than a year ago leaped to 13.3%, up about 2.7 percentage points from April and the highest since July 2022. The total of those seeing either a much…
Boston’s drinking roots stretch all the way back to before the Revolutionary War, back to when the first bar in the country opened in Boston almost 400 years ago. This is to say that Bostonians have known how to have a good time since at least 1634, the year Boston’s first recorded licensed drinking establishment Samuel Cole’s Inn opened.But the city’s drinking culture has come a long way since the 1600s. Sophisticated cocktail bars, Champagne bars bubbling high above the city, award-worthy Irish pubs, and a prodigious number of historic bars mean there are myriad ways to secure a good…
Daniella Kallmeyer is all about progressive curation. From antique piano shawls to classic blazers that possess a quiet confidence to patterns taken from vintage inlay, Kallmeyer’s ethos frequently emphasizes the art of collecting—and how that’s inevitably reflected in one’s own wardrobe. This season, these ideas were represented by what the designer dubbed “The Atelier Woman.” An exemplar of said woman is Leslie Manville’s character, Daniel Day-Lewis’s sister and atelier manager, in Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Phantom Thread. “She’s obsessive over the way things are meant to be, and she understands the labor of craft,” Kallmeyer explained. Still, there’s an enigmatic…
“Nostalgia is a file that removes the rough edges from the good old days.” ~Doug Larson I don’t miss Zinia. I miss the Zinia I made up. The real Zinia—the one who fought with me for hours over things that became bigger than they should have, who said things I told myself I’d never forgive, who was wrong for me in ways I kept pretending weren’t there—I got rid of all of that somewhere along the way. I kept the laugh. The chemistry. The way she got my humor without me having to explain it. The conversations that ran till…
Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly took their GLP-1 pill battle to the preeminent obesity meeting this weekend as they prepare for the next sea change in how patients receive their drugs.Novo Nordisk on Sunday announced that prescriptions of the Wegovy pill have topped 3 million since it entered the U.S. market about five months ago. The Danish drugmaker’s CEO Mike Doustdar celebrated the milestone, saying in an interview with CNBC that Novo was able to accelerate prescriptions even as Lilly introduced its own GLP-1 pill in April.”If that’s not acceleration, then I don’t know what is,” Doustdar told CNBC this…
