[Every week our style guru takes a celebrity look and breaks it down for you, our poor college fashionista. What does that mean? It means that while the celebrities are spending $5,000 on an ensemble, you don’t have to.

All you have to do is click on the goods and - boom - you can buy the entire ensemble. Yes, we know; there is a spot for her in heaven.]

I may be one of the few who truly loves Private Practice. Come on, people; don’t tell me you don’t dream of a doctor’s office filled with smokin’ docs! I also love Kate Walsh’s Bob. It’s chic and fresh, but still long and girly (unlike our pal Posh). And it looks so easy to deal with (unlike my unruly fro).

And now, not only am I jealous of Kate Walsh’s job and hair, but I’m jealous of her ‘fit. Cause it is just so cute. She looks totally fashion-forward for a day about town, which makes me believe that we can do it too!

But it’s a recession and we can’t afford to buy a $200 skirt! So leave it to me (your trusty budget fashionista) to break it down and find it for us all on the cheap: Read More »

Thinking about a dad in a non-fatherly way is gross. On so many levels.

But at TV dad? Well, that’s a whole ‘nother story.

Everyone at one point has been watching a show and had a rare, but undeniable attraction to a TV Dad. An “I wish I could reach into the TV, knock his wife out and take him right there on the kitchen table” sorta moment. Or a, “If that man didn’t have spit up on his shoulder I would totally do him,” situation.

I know I’m not alone….

There are just some delicious TV dads. The kind of dads that make dad crushes OK (or not quite as gross and sick and wrong).

So, instead of privately fantasizing about all the Hot Dads I’d like to screw, I’ve compiled a list for your reading and viewing pleasure.

I’m not the biggest fan of Grey’s Anatomy. I mean, I used to be. The first and second season had me at hello, and the finale where that hot dude asked Izzie to marry him and then kicked the bucket minutes before she walked into his room? Jesus. I was crying so hard my roommate started to panic.

But then I got busy, and the show got lame. Everyone started hooking up with everyone else (what? It’s a huge hospital. Branch out!), the dialogue got a little too quippy, and those endings with the sad folk-rock montages became old. I was over it.

Until just now. Home alone on a Friday night, swiffering the piles of cat hair off my floor (sounds cool, huh?), letting the TV talk to me on the background, I watched some catch-up episodes of Grey’s. Same old same old. Meredith looked pained, George looked cute and pained, McDreamy looked stubbled and pained, and everyone else told some jokes in between looking pained.

The episode in question, entitled “The Other Side of This Life”, was apparently the first look at the characters for the Addison Montgomery spin-off Private Practice. As I swiffered, I kept one eye on our insanely small TV and the other on the flying piles of dander until HE came on the screen. Read More »
