Tristan Coopersmith: Love Stylist
Welcome to the new happily ever after!
I can remember as even a tiny little girl (around 4 years old) my mother telling me “to marry my best friend.” What she forgot to mention (aside from the fact that yes, eventually I might actually not be totally grossed out by kissing, let alone boys), was that I first had to fall head-over-heels…Read More
Ever thought about what a relationship “should” be… what a self-loving, self-respecting person is entitled to in a healthy relationship? Of course you have! I’ve addressed this in various dimensions in lots of other posts but I thought it would be fun to draft a general Relationship Bill of Rights. Mine can serve as a…Read More
Sometimes we become our own worst enemy; our biggest block to what we want. Especially when it comes to love. So this year, I want a focus for you to be granting yourself, PERMISSION TO LOVE. This means letting go of yourself, getting out of your own way and letting love come to you. This…Read More

This past week I journeyed to New York and over a game of tic-tac-toe (on the chicest board I’ve ever seen compliments of The London hotel) and a few watermelon mojitos, one of my gal pals, Lucy, updated me on her mandidate menu. As she told me about her latest flavor, a guy named Josh,…Read More
My long-time girlfriend Mandy invites me for a mud pie and mochas lunch date forewarning me that this is likely going to be 2-slicer event. This is her way of telling me she really needs to talk. The topic: Why isn’t Randy proposing? Randy and Mandy (no joke) have been together for 7 years (clearly, they are not…Read More
