In my mind, the second best part of going back to school as a kid was buying new school supplies (second, only to buying new clothes). While you might have swapped your Lisa Frank bright-colored-animal-covered notebooks for a laptop, it doesn’t mean that you can’t still have fun with your school stuff. If you have any distance to walk to class, chances are you have to haul your books. This year, why not buy yourself a new schoo lbag to make this trek more enjoyable?

There’s the perfect bag for everyone (or bags for your every mood). For the sporty gal there’s the ever useful backpack that will be easy to carry even if you’re ten minutes late and need to haul ass. For the fashionista there’s the less practical, but ever fashionable satchel. If you take your laptop to class, there tons of solutions with laptop compartments. No matter what your style, your price range, or your needs for a school bag, there’s something out there for you. Read More »

One of the hottest accessories trends for spring is stacked bangles. This trend is not about subtlety, but about mixing bracelets together in a fun, unique way. You can try experimenting with different colors, shapes, prints, sizes and textures. Buy a set that’s already together or try and DIY with three or four you already have.

Here are some of my favorite sets. Just click on the picture to get more info (some that are shown together are actually sold individually): Read More »

I for one did not see this one coming.

Jessica Alba is having a baby with her beau Cash Warren.

Have our tabloid magazines and entertainment TV reporters checked out for an early vacay? Has Britney been hogging the media spotlight for so long that no one thought to even speculate?

There were no excuses like past starlets who deny it by saying “I’ve just eaten too many cheeseburgers”. There were no baggy Pucci dresses trying to cover up a little bump. There weren’t even professional experts analyzing her body language, or counting how many times she’s turned down a drink. And there have been no blown up pictures circling her belly in thick magenta marker and predicting her due date.

And to take all the fun out of guessing (and ruining potential money making tabloid covers- I so would not want to be the assitant to the Editor in Cheif at Us Weekly right now. Yikes) Alba’s rep, Brad Cafarelli confirmed exclusively to People that my girl crush, will indeed be popping out a baby in late spring/early summer.

Jessica and Cash have dated since fall of 2004 when they met on the set of The Fantastic Four.

Is it just me or is the trendy thing to be preggers in Hollywood right now? Between J.Lo, Nicole Richie, Christina and now Jess, it’s like a mass message is being spread that the days of coke followed by a getaway to Promises rehab facility is sooo yesterday (Amy Winehouse clearly did not get that memo) and that babies are the new must-have accessory. I bet Kitson will make a T-shirt about it or something. Then we will know for sure it’s a must do/have trend. Read More »

Our country has officially gone insane.

I could deal with Paris Hilton’s pathetic stint in jail. I could even deal with Paris Hilton hooking up with Adrian Grenier, who is, like 3,749,234 times hotter than she is.

But this. This I cannot deal with.

Paris Hilton has put her name onto a children’s clothing line. For little girls. To wear. In public.

WTF!!!

It’s bad enough she has a new line with Kitson for, you know – females OLD ENOUGH to wear her tacky, ugly clothes. But innocent children should not be subjected to gold, sequined cocktail dresses! (Okay, no one should be subjected to gold, sequined cocktail dresses)

This just ain’t right for so many reasons. What a great message this sends to the youth of America – dress like Paris Hilton, and you’re on the road to success!! I’m gonna vomit.

People have already began pointing the fingers at the parents, and rightfully so. What the hell kind of mother would take her daughter to a store and allow her to pick out Paris Hilton brand dresses? Besides Lindsay Lohan’s crazy-ass mother, what mother would endorse racist ranting, porn-taping and House of Wax by encouraging the purchase of these horrid clothes? Read More »
