Why A Little Girl’s Dance Class Made Us Redesign Our Website

If there’s one thing that clear bags have taught us, it’s that everything changes.

With new school security policies for clear handbags and…

If you’re a football fan, you know that sound you heard last week was millions of women screaming as one in outrage over the new NFL All Clear bag policy, which limits the type and size of bags that will be allowed into NFL team stadiums – they all have to be clear, aside from small clutch-style purses you can’t fit a foam finger or a good supply of body paint into.
