pastime: 5 articles for you to read on a rainy day

Since the weather has stopped inviting people out for picnics and ocean swims, I’ve been spending tons of time in front of my computer(haven’t we all?) reading loads of articles on the web about fashion and blogging and watching too many ice bucked challenge videos.
