LATER, FEEDS MISSION TO END WORLD
HUNGER IS JUST GETTING STARTED
It was just me and my burlap sack! Thats how Lauren Bush Lauren
describes the early days of FEED, the charitable accessories brand the
former model launched in 2007 to help make a dent in world hunger. At
first, people looked at us cross-eyed, wondering if we were a nonprofit or
a for-profit. What a difference a decade makes. Known for its number-
centric branding (each product shows how many meals your purchase
provides), the company now helps feed children in 63 countries through its
ever-growing selection of bags, jewelry, and apparel. Without food secu-
rity, people cant grow, because theyre always in survival mode, explains
Lauren, who hopes that the recent push for local sourcing can do even
5
more. During a trip this June to Mozambique and Madagascar to celebrate
FEEDs 10th anniversary, she visited farmers who, after getting tools like
irrigation pumps, tractors, and grain-storage bins (which keep food from
spoiling) from the UN, have been able to grow their businessesand thus
provide more meals for their communities. Its incredible what people can
achieve when theyre not worrying about their next meal, says the activist,
who recalls a 2009 trip to Rwanda during which a young girl proudly voiced 6
her desire to become the countrys first female president. As FEED hits its
100-millionth-meal mark this month, Lauren plans to ramp up efforts at HELPING HAND

FEED merchandise and FEED Finds, a curation of other socially conscious
products, customers can buy snacks and custom La Colombe

Remember when you were young and fashion felt like playing dress-up? I used
to love rummaging through my mothers closet, teetering around in her too-big
heels and shoulder-padded dresses pretending that I had somewhere important to go.

This month, I plan to do just that by working falls fire-engine reds, power-suiting
pieces, and 70s plaids into my wardrobe. And nothing puts pep back in my step like a great

Afghanistan
When bombs started falling on Kabul, this 15 year

old fled with her mother and six siblings to India.
Her father stayed behind, and sends money when

he can. Culturally, her mother cannot work, so their
family has no other source of income.
In Afghanistan she was not allowed to go to school,

but in India she has the freedom to learn, although
she fears that if her father found out, he would
stop her. So she has chosen to remain anonymous.
With an education she sees a future where she can

make her own decisions. Her dream is to become
a fashion designer, not a wife in an arranged marriage
where she is forbidden to work.
Her story is one of millions from the bottom of the

worlds rich list. To read more, and see how you can

Bulgaris Festa collection calls for a celebration

Italians know how to partyhey, they dont call it la dolce vita for
nothingand the Rome-based house of Bulgari is no exception. Its latest
range (dubbed Festa, meaning party in Italian) showcases cheerfully
hued gemsfrom rubies and emeralds to unexpected stones like tigereye,
malachite, and chalcedonyinspired by the all-in revelry associated
with the brands home turf. Its an homage to Italians sense of pure
happiness, says Lucia Silvestri, Bulgaris creative directorand all that
comes along with it. Traditional Italian treats are well-represented,
from cake rings and gelato chokers to Popsicle and lollipop pendants
and brooches. Gifts exchanged at Silvestris parents parties sparked
present- and balloon-shaped pieces, while a black-tie-ready assortment
pays tribute to historic Roman princesses famous for their carousing
lives. The most unique creations, however, recall moments from the
designers childhood: A necklace and bracelet feature the colors of the 17
districts that participate in Sienas biannual Palio horse race, and an olive-
branch design nods to afternoons Silvestri spent picking the fruit with
her Apulian friends. The Apulia region is the birthplace of the tarantella
dance: a fast-paced jig that ancient legend held could cure poisonous
spider bites. Today, it endures at weddings and private partiesbut that
didnt stop Silvestri from honoring its folkloric beginnings with a spiders-
nest necklace. (What is a festa without any cakes, presents, or dancing?
she asks.) In all, a most inviting collection. Alexandra Ilyashov

Natural light comes in handy for a number of situations:
taking great photographs, applying makeupand ogling
precious gems. The sparkle factor of exquisite stones from
sunrise to sunset was the starting point for Sunlight Journey,
Piagets latest collection. The vibrant creations honor the

were inspired by the colors and spirit of the Amalfi Coast,
the dazzling sunshine, and the joie de vivre lifestyle, says

of the Enchanted Island, included exotic animal menageries, an
outdoor ballet performance, and a 24-foot-long golden chariot. On such
festive occasions, Diors latest jewelry collection would have fit right
in. After playing off the palaces architecture and furnishings last year,
artistic director Victoire de Castellane turned to the grounds this time
around. To reinterpret the vision of landscape architect Andr Le Ntre,
the man Louis XIV hired to oversee the gardens 40-year construction,
she echoed its most defining elements. Emeralds were placed in orderly
rows on rings and necklaces to mimic box hedges, or were fit into
grove settings resembling thickets of trees. Paraba tourmaline and
black-opal rings reflect the grounds ponds and fountainssculpted 5

AIRBNBS (not so)
SECRET WEAPON
s
Touted as the Sheryl Sandberg of Airbnb, Belinda Johnson, the companys highest-ranking
woman, is the quiet force shaping its path to global domination
By COLLEEN McKEEGAN
ince launching nearly a decade ago, Airbnb has

had its fair share of issues. Yet unlike some of the
companys peers in the sharing economy, Airbnb
has avoided any lasting damage to its reputation.
Many credit cofounder and CEO Brian Cheskys
ambitious optimism, but theres another school of
thought: Its because hes had Belinda Johnson by
his side for the past six years.
When I meet Johnson, the companys chief
business affairs and legal officer, at Airbnb
headquartersa far cry from the staid white-shoe law firms where she
started her careershe is wearing a peasant blouse and flared jeans. Her
polished professionalism belies the fact that shes the behind-the-scenes
operator fighting many of Airbnbs biggest challenges.
Airbnb hosts have been slapped with steep fines ranging from $1,000
to $25,000 and sued by their own cities. Hoteliers have lobbied cities to
regulate the platforms expansion. In June 2016, the company filed its
first lawsuit as a plaintiffagainst its hometown, San Francisco; the
city had passed legislation that allowed it to charge Airbnb $1,000 a
day for every host who wasnt registered as a landlord with the city.
Johnson encouraged a hesitant Chesky to approve that first lawsuit,
claiming it was necessary if the company was going to continue operat-
ing in certain cities. Airbnb has since sued Santa Monica and Anaheim,
California; Miami; and New York Citymoves that led to looser regula-
tions for Airbnb (in New York, for instance, the city can go after hosts
but not after Airbnb itself ).
In 2016, around the time #AirbnbWhileBlack went viral on Twitter
and shared hundreds of users horror stories about racial discrimina-
tion, Johnson helped create an internal task force to address the prob-
lem. We launched a series of commitments that were still working on.
That work is never going to end for us, she says. Those commitments

BEAUTY
When I went away to college, I found liberation in a
bleached and dyed pixie cut, which I adorned lovingly
with glitter gel and little stars. My hair was wild and
wanted to be loved for what it was: a jagged, genderless
mess that was different every day. It didnt want to be
constricted or forced into submission, and neither did I.
We worked well together, that pixie cut and I. And my
willingness to experiment earned me free color and cuts
from stylists around town, who in return asked only for
a photo they could put in their portfolios.
After college, I grew out my locks and became a
nomad, working all over the world in whatever job I
could find to support my writing habit: deckhand, chef,
yoga teacher, bartender. I also learned that getting better
tips was as simple as having long blonde hair, so I had
my natural light brown bleached in a cheap New York
City salon with chemicals that stampeded my nose,
assaulted my brain cells, and fried my ends. Since I
couldnt get the frazzled debris to grow past my shoul-
ders, I often relied on a clip-in polyester ponytail from
the drugstore to get to a money-making length.
Between these memorable styles, there were periods
of blah, when I didnt bother with styling or coloring or
even brushing, and my mousy locks turned a washed-
out shade of oblivion, pulled back into a perpetual
bun for yoga. When my hair said nothing, my life was
in stasis. But never for long. At the end of a terrible
relationship with an older mana significant stretch of
financial insecurity and dependencyI sold a feature
script that bought me freedom and a new style: a stun-
ning dyed-black Mohawk with extensions that cascaded
down my back. It was fierce, androgynous, sexy, and
warrior-like. I loved that cut and tried not to think
about the extensions, which were apparently made
with hair that came from an Indonesian temple where

women sliced it off to make offerings to the gods and
temple keepers gathered it to sell to Westerners.
Maybe some of the negative vibes remained, because
it was that beloved Mohawk that attracted the man

SUGAR HIGH
HEALTH UPDATE
t
Could rehab be the path to a healthy weight? Katherine Laidlaw reports on
new programs that treat sugar as an addictive substance
he night before Sarah L. made her third
trip to a treatment center for help manag-
ing her weight, she and a friend went out
for a last supper. First, they had all-you-
can-eat ribs and corn bread; then they sat
in the car scooping fudge sundaes from
plastic McDonalds cups. From there, they
filled bags with Reeses Pieces at Bulk
Barn and took them home, stuffing them
into their mouths by the handful. I was
still bingeing on the candy on my way to
the facility the next morning, she says.
Sarah, 35, a palliative-care nurse from North Delta,
British Columbia, has always had a complicated relation-
ship with food. When she was 5, shed sneak banana-
chocolate muffins from the Tupperware container her
mom kept in the freezer. By 11, she was stealing money
from her parents to fund her candy habit. At 13, she began
to purge. I just loved food and wanted to eat a lot, and
then Id feel guilty, so Id throw up, she says. I overate and
couldnt stop. As a teen, shed steal candy and chocolate
from her jobs at a local gas station and grocery store.
Playing softball and swimming kept her fit, but she still
carried extra weight on her 5'8" frame and tried every
strategy availableJenny Craig, Atkins, Herbalife, laxatives,
diuretics, diet pills, stimulantsto get rid of it.
At her peak weight, Sarah was 33 years old and 192
pounds, which wasnt heavy enough to label her a binge
eater and qualify her for an eating-disorder program paid
for by Canadas universal health-care system. But maybe
thats a good thing, because binge eating is only part of
her problem. Sarah is an addict, and at Renascent, the
Toronto facility she checked in to that morning, she was
treated right alongside women hooked on cocaine, heroin,
meth, and opioids.
While that may sound extreme, researchers are begin-
ning to realize that sugar (not just the sweet white stuff,
but other simple carbs, too) is more like a drug than we
ever realized. Eating a handful of Skittles, for example,
triggers a release of dopamine, the neurotransmitter that
helps control the brains pleasure center. Sugar has also
been shown to lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol,
meaning its comfort food in the most literal sense. One
Connecticut College study conducted on rats found that
consuming Oreos fires up more of the brains pleasure-
center neurons than injections of cocaine and morphine

frequently you consume sugar, the less dopamine (and everywhere,
and other simple
pleasure) you get from it, so over time youre driven to eat carbs can be as

a 12-step program similar to Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous. In
detox, we train people to stop wondering how theyre going to go out
and buy the Jujubes at night when no ones noticing, Tarman says.
But sugar is much harder to avoid than drugs like heroin or
cocaine, and critics say the abstinence approach is too restrictive.
Food is more than just fuel; we live in a world that constantly
pushes sugary foods at us, says Dr. Yoni Freedhoff, director of
Canadas Bariatric Medical Institute, which runs a six-month-long
outpatient weight-management program. For many people, the
abstinence approach eventually breaks down. Youre asking people
to do something thats incredibly challenging in a world that under-
mines their effort multiple times per day. I dont know how thats
possible long-term.
Sarah is managing so far. After she pushed through the initial week
of withdrawal, she began to rethink her relationship with food. I

Sarah left Renascent, and she still plans her meals, treating the

and baking chicken breasts so she can measure out her food for the
week. Although doctors at Renascent recommend that their patients,
