• Kombucha. It’s all the rage — taking over the drink section at Whole Foods, on tap at your local watering hole, and even in cocktails.

• If you walk everywhere (gotta get those 10,000 steps in!), you’ll be pleased to know that dressing up sneakers is very in right now. Meaning: You can stroll into your office in a Vans-and-dress combo sans shame. Insert all the praise-hands emoji here. [Self]

• In true Kardashian style, Blac Chyna recently said she plans to eat her placenta when she gives birth — but research shows it might not be worth it. (Here’s to hoping you’re reading this, Chyna.) [Refinery29]
