Cool Mom Picks and Cookie Magazine Do Picnics: The picnic tote from Hable Construction
We're excited to be partnering with Cookie Magazine this week to present some of our favorite picnic picks of the season. (Picknics?) Hit our site, then make sure to click over to Cookie to double your picnic pleasure, double your fun. And don't miss the fabulous giveaway opportunity this week!

Every time I meander through the West Village, I have to make a detour up Perry Street to see what's new at Hable Construction. They just seem to get the combo of modern textiles with practical design every single time. So it's no surprise that their picnic tote is the one the CMP editors are coveting the most this year.

I cannot possibly choose between the four fabrics, which is I think the only reason I don't own one myself yet.  It's the perfect smaller size so you can fill it with just enough food and stick some utensils and napkins in the exterior pockets. Plus the flat bottom keeps it upright, provided curious toddlers stay out.

If you prefer a larger bag, check out Hable's stylish Weekender which can definitely haul blankets, sandwiches, and something to drink of the fermented variety.

Don't forget the corkscrew. Oh, never forget the corkscrew. -Liz

Eyewear that brings life to the party

At some point, most of us have accepted an inconvenient truth: reading glasses are now part of the outfit. They live on the nightstand, in the kitchen, next to the computer, and somehow always disappear precisely when we need them. But d…

Halloween nails, but make them chic

We love Halloween, but there’s a fine line between festive and looking like a craft store exploded on your fingertips. If you want your nails to participate in spooky season without committing to tiny ghosts, glitter bats, and orange-and…
