Confession: I kind of hate Mad Men. I know, the clothes are so pretty and Jon Hamm is cute and it’s allegedly one of the more “intellectual” shows on air right now. But when I watched it, I found it to be a completely and utterly snoozeworthy soap opera. Oops. I guess I’m just completely lacking in taste. That said, I love January Jones. Her portrayal of Betty Draper was one of the few highlights of Mad Men for me, and on a more superficial note, I think she is completely and utterly stunning. As she’s been on a whirlwind promo tour as of late, and her style has been killer.

lace tank - Macy’s, $44.99//leggings – Victoria’s Secret, $29.99//blazer – Charlotte Russe, $34.99//pumps – 6pm, $50.99
This lace tank both sexy and modest, and I especially love the flattering length and cut. A blazer with a bit of shoulder padding is always an excellent layering choice. January chose a pair of olive leggings, in an interesting contrast to the black. It’s jarring, but I appreciate the risk. It’s definitely an unexpected choice, but I think it totally works. One of the reasons black is such a classic color is because it is so ridiculously versatile, and it’s fun to take advantage of that. Black suede pumps complete the ensemble. This look as it is would be great for night, but you could easily swap the pumps for some ballet flats, and add a bright bag, to transition it into day.

I’m going to tell you all a little story. Once upon a time, my Creative Writing professor told our class that after she gave birth to her first child, she admitted that she ate her own placenta for dinner. I’ll allow you guys to let that sink in for a moment.
I think I sat there with what I can only imagine was a horrified expression mixed with a twinge of disgust. She went on to tell us that she saved the placenta from the births of both her sons and froze it. In the family freezer. Like along with their meat and frozen veggies. She said that her husband had also consumed it once or twice due to his curiosity (Side note: I also had her husband as a chemistry professor my freshman year of college, and he was just as, if not MORE, insane than she was). She went on to tell us that “consuming the afterbirth” is a really spiritual and calming activity that helps a mother bond closer with her child. It also provides nutrients and other stuff that you can’t get from other foods.
Nutrients and other junk would not be reason enough for me to eat my own placenta. I’m sorry for all you supporters of this, but I just cannot get this wrapped around my head. I don’t understand, and I probably never will. My mom didn’t eat her own placenta and I turned out pretty well. So I don’t see the necessity in this.
Like my college professor, Mad Men actress January Jones has admitted to doing the same thing. That’s right. Betty Draper eats her own placenta. What do you guys think about all this? She recommends it to all moms and has no shame in her game when it comes to eating her own placenta, but are you grossed out like me? I can’t ever see a woman just taking some placenta out of the freezer and then cooking it with her stew or something. Maybe January just gets it and I don’t. Here are some pictures of January walking around town with her belly. I wonder if in all these photos she’s just thinking about how she’s going to eat her placenta. Little bit of salt? Some seasoning? Yummy. Read More »

This week, the Golden Globes happened along with a lot of other fun stuff! Celebs got pissed, celebs got engaged, celebs broke up, and some celebs even had secret babies! All in all, a well-rounded week, I’d say.
Back To The Semester Parties
1. You’ll probably never see Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes again. Despite the fact that he did a hilarious job of hosting the Golden Globes, which would have been utterly dull without him, Ricky Gervais’s jokes are being slammed by the majority of Hollywood. Why? I guess because he made fun of both Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp within the first five minutes (I guess Hollywood royalty isn’t used to being picked on…), he trashed the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press, and according to some people, he just went ‘too far’ with the jokes he made about Robert Downey Jr., Bruce Willis, and Tom Cruise. There were tons of rumors that he was asked to never return – but apparently, Ricky has made that decision on his own. Can we pull the stick out of Hollywood’s Botox-injected butt, please?
2. Halle Berry is having baby daddy drama. She’s going into a custody battle with her ex, Gabriel Aubry, over their daughter Nahla. He wants to be officially declared the father, and wants joint custody of his daughter. Can’t really blame the guy, can you? Their break-up seemed pretty friendly, but let’s see what happens when the court gets involved.

Can I get some Red Bull up in here? I’m majorly struggling right now. It’s like the crash that comes after eating a bag of Sour Patch Kids, only instead of sugar I was hopped up on sequins and cleavage and Brad Pitt’s sunglasses.
Yes, you know I’m talking about the glamour that was the Golden Globe’s Red Carpet.
Of course there are always lots of entertaining moments in the award show itself (Ricky Gervais was hosting, after all), but like most ladies with an eye for fashion, the true highlight of the show comes before it even starts. And last night’s show before the show did not disappoint. From the stunning shoes (I’m looking at your hidden feet, Olivia Wilde!) to the bright hues (word to your mother, Angelina) to the style doo doos (how else do you describe Christina Aguilera’s ‘fit?), the 2011 Golden Globes red carpet had me on the edge of my futon.
So after 3 hours of acceptance speeches during which I did some careful consideration (and drank a few glasses of Franzia), I bring you the best dressed, worst dressed, most WTF dressed and, just for fun, the sexiest men of the 2011 Golden Globes.
Enjoy. Read More »

Poor Lindsay. With all the cheating scandals behind us, we celebrity-obsessed gossip hunters had nothing to do this week but focus our attention on Lilo’s first week of “sobriety.” Which, if you aren’t living under a rock, we all know didn’t go so well. But it did go better than Lady Gaga’s trip to the Mets game. And life in general for those Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Oh, celebs. Let’s review this week’s biggest and baddest gossip stories.
Muy Importante
1. Beep Beep goes Lindsay Lohan’s SCRAM bracelet! It went off less than a week after it was strapped on. Color me shocked. Actually, color me the opposite of shocked…what is that, gray? Apparently, Lilo’s claiming that she did not drink and alcohol was “spilled” on her SCRAM bracelet. Because everyone is going to believe cracked out Lindsay over a highly scientific piece of equipment. And let’s be real: how on earth could vodka soak through a sequin pantsuit?
2. Globe Magazine publishes Gary Coleman’s final days. Why someone would have the audacity to do this I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure his gold-digging ex-wife, Shannon Price, needed the moolah. R.I.P Gary. Read More »
