By on Mon, Jul 17, 2017 at 3:44 pm

The tenth annual World Naked Bike Ride hit the streets of the Grove this past Saturday. The bicycle ride encourages cyclists to go as "bare as you dare" to promote body positivity while also building awareness for their rights and vulnerability on the road. In addition to the ride, the event also included a pre-ride gathering and costume contest and a post-ride party with dancing and plenty of 4Hands beer. Check out all the costumes and all the fun right here. See also: I Rode My Ass Off at St. Louis' World Naked Bike Ride

Butter Love Skin 2608 Cherokee Street La’Crassia Wilderness has been in business for nine years but it wasn’t until June that she opened a storefront for Butter Love. The skincare business has a retail space in front and Wilderness’ workspace in the back, which gives the whole place a wonderful ambrosial smell. Up front you’ll find body oils, clay masks, lip balms and more, as well as Wilderness’ goldendoodle, Lulu.

ProvisionsBuying a gift isn’t always easy, but Provisions St. Louis (228 North Euclid Avenue, provisionsstl.com) co-owner Debra Hunter has some advice: “My husband always says give something you’d like to have yourself.” The Hunters ought to know a thing or two about the perfect gift; their store is packed with them. Debra and Ross opened Provisions in the Central West End five years ago after moving from the Bay Area. “St. Louis is really, really supportive of small businesses. It’s always been that way since we’ve moved here,” Hunter says. “It’s palpable, and it’s not just us.” Browsing Provisions’ cozy confines on a recent rainy afternoon, it didn’t take long for the perfect gift to reveal itself. Among Provisions’ wares are candles, cookbooks, baking flour, books, pillows, scarves and paintings. The store’s relatively small square footage belies how long you’ll likely spend looking through it all. Hunter says the common thread among everything she stocks is that it is all gift-oriented, but that also includes “things to give to yourself.” To her point, we left that day with three items, two to give away and one to keep for ourselves, though which items fell into what category is something we still need to figure out. —Ryan Krull
