We all laughed when we saw the Pajama Jeans commercial for the first time (then we cried a little when we realized it was real…). I mean, pajama jeans. The entire concept is absolutely ridiculous. Like, sometimes you just gotta put on real pants with buttons and zippers and pockets. That’s life. Sorry.
But you know what’s even more ridiculous than the concept of pajama jeans? The fact that Joe’s Jeans is now selling DESIGNER Jean Sweats for $158. And no “Jean Sweats” isn’t my vulgar slang for what their selling. That’s what it actually says on their site. Not stretch jeans, not jeggings, but Jean Sweats.
With late night study seshes being fueled by Ramen and Redbull, Thanksgiving has been the light at the end of this dark tunnel. Seeing friends and family, eating a hearty home-cooked meal, and doing absolutely nothing but sleeping and shopping for days in a row… it’s almost too good to be true.
But it’s not! It’s real. And I’m so thankful for this refreshing calm before the storm that is finals that it almost makes me want to stay home in a cranberry sauce-induced food coma forever. Because as great as college life is and as grateful as I am to be here, there are a few aspects of it that I am oh so NOT thankful for.
On the Twitterverse today, #thingsyoushouldstopdoinginyour30s is a trending topic. If we’re going to stop doing these things in our thirties then I’m pretty we need to start getting them out of our systems now. Things like: having a threesome with two girls (or guys) you met at the bar, living at home in your high school room, taking your girlfriends money (or even worse… your mom’s money), skipping class (or work) to make it Tuesday’s Happy Hour specials, asking teens for their numbers, fist-pumping at the bar, wearing your Free Snooki shirt and making jungle juice on the holiday… but maybe that’s just us.
Anyway, we scrolled through and found some of the best things you all think you should stop doing in your thirties…so seriously get it alllll out of your system now kids.
I really like tattoos when they’re tastefully done and they mean something to someone. The whole I-got-it-when-I-was-wasted-not-really-sure-why-or-what-it-means reason isn’t really a huge selling point for me. Or when I have to take out my glasses and readjust the lenses in order to be able to read the paragraph scribbled on your back.
I have two tattoos that I love. So, it’s not that I’m against girls and boys with quotes inked on their skin, it just that the ones I’m going to show you are literally going to make you say WTF… aloud.
If your tattoo is going to take up the entire length of your abdomen, maybe you should just stick to keeping it in whatever Judy Blume book you first read it in. Or if you’re getting your zodiac sign tattooed on your wrist so you can remember it more readily, perhaps there’s a bigger issue going on here that you need to address.
Imagine you’re in the grocery store browsing for tampons and all of a sudden you see wipes. Wipes in the tampon section! What’s this about? So you check out the box and you’re reading about feminine odor. Odor. That means you’re smelly. And smelly means yucky and gross and undesirable to a partner. Even though you’re pretty confident that you don’t smell (because you know that your body gives off its own natural scent), you buy a box anyway.
Sound like the kind of person I’m talking about? Then you need Lip Labs Ltd. “Just For Her Vagi-Wipes”!
The Huffington Post sat down recently with the voice behind the Lip Labs “brand”, Jacq Lesko, who is making a lot of noise when it comes to women, their vaginas and the way society insists they should smell. Selling the moist towelettes in flavors such as jalapeno and pizza, Lesko knows how to get down… on you.
With the slogan Simple. Sanitary. Vagina., Lesko’s mission is to promote the beautiful, natural feminine scent that comes from our bodies, instead of tainting it with factory manufactured towelettes. She does so with several faux videos poking fun at existing brands today that often encourage women to alter their natural scent in fear that a man won’t like it.
But we thought we might go one step further. We’re the need-to-see-it-to-believe-it kind of people and we thought you might be too. So even though the brand isn’t real (phew, because I am not putting Tabasco flavoring on my lady parts!) we posted the videos below.
As for the woman in the supermarket having hot flashes because she’s suddenly overwhelmed thinking that her vagina smells, we have a little advice: slowly put the box down and walk away. It’s your vagina, it’s supposed to smell like you.
Kirsten Dunst wore this Rodate Spring 2012 dress to the Museum of Contemporary Arts Gala earlier this week. She is the first celebrity to wear the new-season empire gown, which featured a strapless bodice and aqua and lace tiers. She paired it with pretty makeup and 40s style hair, diamond jewellery and a Chanel clutch.
I am just really not feeling this dress. Maybe it’s because I’m curvy, but I just don’t feel shapeless dresses. It also seems to be a little bit too big for her and hangs kinda awkwardly. Without her hand on her hip, her whole shape kinda gets lost. I’m not a massive fan of the colour either- I know it’s a big thing to wear next season, but it just feels kinda inappropriate and weird to be wearing such a summery colour, and such a summery style, in the middle of November. There just seems to be something missing, whether that’s a more-dramatic eye, a bolder lip, dazzling shoes or stand-out accessories, but the look just seems to feel a little incomplete. Read More »
