Would you want to know the age you’re predicted to die? A question that likely splits most of us into two groups. One that’s rather in the unknown, and the other that wants to know it all, take control, and Ideally extend it. In October, I spent a week in the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador with a group from the latter category. Eight strangers from different corners of the country, a wide range of ages, and varying careers, yet they had more things in common than either of them ever thought. As part of Dave Asprey’s new venture, Unlimited Life,…
There was a time when going to the airport called for dressing up. It was an era of pillbox hats and glamorous coats. (It was also a time of cigarette-smoke-filled cabins, so we’ll take our wins where we can.) But when it comes to today’s travel outfits, suffice it to say the reality of dressing for a flight, no matter how short or long, is typically uninspiring. Why not change that? While you’re planning your vacation wardrobe, picking out something to wear to feel put together on the trip itself can make long travel days a little more special.Vogue’s Travel…
To be honest, standard abs exercises (such as sit-ups and crunches) are a little archaic and extremely mundane—not to mention, no amount of basic crunches will get you a super-strong core. To tighten stomach muscles and properly strengthen your core, you’ll need to go deeper with moves that get your body up and off the floor and challenge your core muscles in unique ways. Learning to engage your core also stabilizes your spine and helps it stay upright (Read: you won’t slouch as much when sitting through another Zoom meeting). Consider these pro tips and try these exercises to tone…

Trail running pulls you away from the predictable and drops you into something far more alive. The ground shifts beneath your feet, the air feels cleaner, and every step asks for a little more attention. Hills rise unexpectedly, descents demand control, and winding paths keep you fully present. It’s a rhythm that changes minute to minute, and that’s what makes it so rewarding. Unlike road running, trails invite you to move with the landscape instead of against it. You learn to read the terrain, adjust your stride, and find your footing in real time. The climbs build stamina, the descents…
The news that Julio Torres’s off-Broadway show Color Theories is coming to HBO as a special couldn’t have come at a better time. I couldn’t stop whining that I wasn’t able to see it in real life, and now that my chance is coming I’ll have so much time free for color theory research of my own. While there are some shade combos that will always be famous when cold weather rolls around—think red and green, black and black, and animal print and anything—we’re ready to mix it up a little bit this fall. After a year spent fixating on…

For winter, Ronnie Fieg continued building upon the “return to classic Kith,” that he presented on the runway back in September. It’s a more mature and considered offering this season, and not just because the lookbook opens with Fieg himself wearing a tobacco brown double-breasted suit—with matching tonal shirt and tie—from the brand’s ongoing Giorgio Armani collaboration. (Get this on Jeremy Strong, stat!)Fieg relishes the winter collections because he can really indulge in his love for fabrics and layering, and this season was no exception, with an emphasis on blown-up takes on classic textures like bouclés and chain stitches, and…
Part of the solution for the sub-par ZZZs that plague nearly 20 percent of adults who struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep may be to fiddle with… their thermostat. Yes, really. The temperature of our bunker, as it turns out, plays a major role in the quality and duration of our dormancy. In fact, naturopathic and functional medicine specialist Paul Harris, medical director of Soaak Technologies and the Soaak App, goes as far as to say that “maintaining an optimal sleep temperature and environment is essential to consistently achieving sound sleep.” So, what is the optimal sleep temperature, and…
