Read previewI grew up as an only child in 1980s Manhattan with a single mother. I was afforded opportunities as an only child that I never would have gotten if I had siblings. AdvertisementAs an only child, my mother tried to give me everythingMy mother lavished me with attention, affection, and opportunities. I can't remember a time when my mother wasn't there for me.

I'm a native New Yorker who attended Oxford for my undergraduate studies in the early 2000s. I didn't seriously expect to meet, date, kiss, or marry Prince William, though I'm confident my mother hoped I might. I'd started Oxford late — after a few semesters in a liberal arts college in the US — so I was a couple of years older than him when we met. It sounds dramatic to relocate your life on a whim, but I'd stopped trusting in stability after my mother died. It's 16 years later, and I'm still living in London with my now-husband, Will, and I have zero regrets.

Since my Ukrainian-born mother dreamed of returning to Europe, she begged me to consider transferring to a university in England or France. So I reapplied for the degree I hoped to study and headed off to Somerville College, Oxford, where I would "read" — major in — Modern Languages, French, and Russian. Most of all, it opened my eyes to many differences between US and UK college life. AdvertisementMy college years in England involved a lot of dressing up for fancy-dress-themed "bops," or dances with cheesy music, and black-tie balls. I also learned that my college life in the UK was all-around better than the one I experienced in Vermont.

I've followed the Mediterranean diet for over 2 years, and I buy a lot of staples to keep in my pantry. Other essentials in the Mediterranean diet include foods high in healthy fats and protein. In the two years I've followed the Mediterranean diet, I've cut out red and white meat (I still eat fish) and swapped the processed buys for fresh food. Jennifer BartonOlive oil is the staple ingredient in everything I eat on the Mediterranean diet. Canned tuna is an affordable alternative to fresh fishFresh fish adds protein to the Mediterranean diet.

Read previewI've been following the Mediterranean diet for over a year and a half, and it's my favorite way to eat. Before embarking on the Mediterranean diet, I was a junk-food queen. AdvertisementOne of the best things about the Mediterranean diet is that after I followed it for a while, I stopped craving sugar so much.

AdvertisementBut I've saved a fortune since starting on the Mediterranean diet — largely because I cut out meat and started buying more canned foods.

AdvertisementI don't miss red meat at allI used to eat a lot of red meat. That was one of the near-instantaneous benefits I noticed when I started following a Mediterranean diet. Fortunately, it's really easy to make budget-friendly swaps and still stick to a Mediterranean diet. There isn't just one Mediterranean dietI think one of the biggest misconceptions I had about the Mediterranean diet before I started following it was that it was pretty limited. Although a Mediterranean diet can be Greek, French, Spanish, and Italian, it's also Turkish, Lebanese, Israeli, and Moroccan.

Fashion rental apps offer users a way to make passive income from the clothes in their closets. Londoner Camille B. has earned over £18,000, or about $22,000, by renting out her designer items on the apps. It was a pleasure to wear, cost $349.25 AUD, or $233, and I've rented it multiple times already, including to someone who wanted the dress for her wedding. Fashion rental apps have changed the way I buy clothesIt's definitely changed the way that I buy. I have a yellow Jacquemus dress which was rented 30 times, for a total of £1,651.71, or about $2,000.
