Your new morning commute obsession:
Vintage-inspired cosmetics brand Bésame has launched a podcast called At the House of Bésame. The monthly podcast will give detail on the backstory of Bésame products, announce new collections and products and include appearances by special guests. Each episode will include a gallery with behind the scenes concept art and a deeper look at the development process. The first 32-minute episode explored the creation of the brand’s Mermaid Lagoon collection.

Releasing February 12, French Moderne: Cocktails from the Twenties and Thirties with recipes (Rizzoli) by Franck Audoux takes a look at the recipes invented in Paris during the time American expats flocked to the City of Light to escape Prohibition.

The spring refresh your makeup bag has been longing for:
LASplash Cosmetics launched an exclusive collection for Ulta inspired by The Great Gatsby.

Products range from $12-$28. Available online only at Ulta.com.
More fuel to feed your vintage obsession:
