For Chanukah there are many things I want from stores around town or off my favorite sites online, but this year I’d prefer some things I’ve learned from Saturday Night Live. Who said TV isn’t educational? It’s taught me about my true wants and desires. (Besides number 4, but I’m trying to help you girls out there any way I can.) If at least one of these come true, I’ll be happy to spin the dreidel and share my Chanukah gelt. Happy Holidays everyone!

Oh, Scarlett Johansson, you look like you climbed out of a classy strip club that only gave you clothes from the clearance rack in Wet Seal. WHAT happened? I’ll give it to Cosmo and their ability to take a modest and bangin’ starlet and turn her into a slutty hybrid of herself — yeesh.

Moving on from that bad purple lace dress and nappy hair job, I flew across some interesting factoids about how to boost his ego after sex. How does Cosmo want you to do it? Say, “That thing you do with your tongue is unbelievable!” Whew, I’m getting exhausted just thinking about this. But maybe it’s just been too long since I’ve had a popsicle. Later, Cosmo dug into Google to see what men want to know most about women. The top search? “Why does my girlfriend’s vag smell.”  Great, looks like men STILL don’t care about anything but sex.

In a touchy-feely article called ‘Touches That Lock Down His Love,’ Cosmo taught us that stroking his earlobe between your thumb and index finger calms him when he’s stressed. And when he’s telling you a story you’re suppose to reach toward him with your palm up. Finally, an article jam packed of quirky things I can do with my hands to make him fall in love with me!

In one of the more disgusting articles of the month, Cosmo listed some whacked-out one liners of men talking about “that time of the month.” Let’s just say the first line I read was, “Does the blood come out of your sex hole or one of the other two?” Then, I threw up in my mouth and moved on due the expense of man-ignorance and disgust.

But the best article of the month was the kinkiest one, of course; called ‘Kinky-Lite Sex Moves Guys Love.’ Meanwhile, I’ll try to decide if Cosmo knows the difference between the ‘O’ face and the ‘OMG WTF’ face.

Cosmo Says: Hand him your vibrator, and tell him to use it on himself while you watch.

Brittany Says: Well, that’s awkward. And not natural. You don’t eat a banana and then hand it to your boyfriend. “Hey, I want you to eat this so I can watch.” See? Not natural.

Cosmo Says: At a crowded bar, pull him into a dark corner, pin him up against a wall with your body, and stealthily slip your hands down his pants.

Brittany Says: I want to know what kind of bars people are hanging out at. Where there aren’t many people and enough dark corners to pull something like this off. I know any bar I went to would see more than they bargained for if this went down.

Cosmo Says: Order him to not get an erection when you go down on him. Once he does, punish him by throwing him on the bed.

Brittany Says: Ugh, how confusing! “You feel GREAT right now because I’m touching you? YOU NEED TO STOP.” If anything, do something like this if your boyfriend is all up in your tree when you’re not feeling it. He will get thoroughly confused and pipe right down.

Cosmo Says: Use a nontoxic, washable marker to write numbers on your body parts that indicate what order he should lick them.

Brittany Says: Do you guys remember those scented black licorice markers you used in third grade? Suddenly I have that taste in my mouth when I used to try and eat them. Weird.

‘Tis the season of ugly sweaters!

Whether or not you’re hosting an Ugly Sweater Soiree, RSVPing to one, or thinking about bringing the party to the bar, we suggest you take a look at this post before you head out in search of the ugliest sweater you can find.

For all of us, Ugly Sweater themed parties mean two things: 1. The holidays are approaching faster than we can say ‘finals’ and 2. We (women and men) get to take a night off from gettin’ glam and go out with jeans, a tee and the perfect ugly sweater.

My ideal U.S. comes with shoulder pads, a kitty and a Christmas tree with yarn ball ornaments. So before you head out, scan our list of the top 30 Ugly Sweaters for some holiday party inspiration! Read More »

What to get the ladies in your life

When I go to a bar, my go-to cocktail is a vodka cranberry. PLAIN vodka with cranberry juice. Well lately there has been an “odd” vodka trend. I was fine when I saw Mango vodka, Raspberry vodka, and Grape vodka on shelves. Those could make some tasty mixed drinks. However, these vodkas are gross. I don’t know how anyone could drink bacon vodka or root beer vodka.

Get ready to puke because these vodka flavors are weird.

Now we’ve already covered our bases on trends of 2011 that we hope to never see again in this lifetime or the next such as crop tops and UGG boots, but what about the trends that are too awesome to get rid of? I know that everyone always has an opinion on the worst things that caught on over the past year, but, on the other side of the spectrum there have been a lot of new and unique concepts that have really made 2011 a great year filled with innovations and new ideas. It’s easy to pick out everything that sucked, but what about the stuff that didn’t suck and was actually awesome?

Sweats are the perfect – and probably the most essential – accessory for a girl to have at college.

I’m an earrings girl. I couldn’t care less about necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc, but earrings are truly my “thing.” I have big hair and require even bigger earrings so they don’t get lost in my masses of curls. I have a sizable collection of costume jewelery earrings, made of cheap brass and nickel, but I also have a few precious gems hiding amongst the cheapies. I always like to treat myself to a new pair for a special occasion and I think I may have found that pair in the Kenneth Jay Lane Artemis earrings.

Firstly, they are named after Artemis, a Greek goddess (like, actually) who happened to be the twin sister of Apollo. She is also the most badass goddess, as she sees over hunting and the wilderness, all while being unbelievably beautiful. I think the name is totally appropriate; these earrings are 18k gold-plated and lady-like, but also unique, with they’re hammered-shape. You definitely need to have some self-confidence to rock these bad boys! Let’s start with a daytime holiday outfit, which I imagined at a brunch! Read More »
