Stiletto Stoners by Marie Claire

The following is the subheading for an article entitled Stiletto Stoners by Yael Kohen in Marie Claire:

They've got killer careers and enviable social lives. They're also major potheads. Why are so many smart, successful women lighting up in their off-hours?

It's just the beginning of an incredibly honest (and awesome) article on successful and talented women who also happen to smoke weed. The article attracted a lot of attention when it was published, as it forced people to recognize 1) that women definitely smoke, and 2) that smoking does not live up to its taboo-filled reputation. The article focuses on a woman who is a corporate attorney in Manhattan, who after putting in a 12-hour work day comes home to light up, sit back, and enjoy some R&R time.

There is an upsurge of people who seamlessly incorporate weed into a healthy and productive lifestyle, including myself. The author writes, "by all outward appearances, they are card-carrying, type A workaholics who just happen to prefer kicking back with a blunt instead of a bottle."

I'll stop rambling, the article speaks for itself. Pot Couture first led me to the article and I just had to pass it along. Check it out here.
