10 Things To Stop Doing With Your Hair By Age 30

10 Things To Stop Doing With Your Hair By Age 30

It seems like just yesterday we presented our response to those “30 Things You Need To Stop Wearing By Age 30” articles (our take: it’s time to stop wearing 1/2 of an old locket you were given at birth before being sent to an orphanage). Just when I thought the whole issue was settled, I came across this article helping all us old gals figure out what we have to stop doing with our hair. Ladies,…

Everything I Remember Buying At Claire's, 1994 - 1999

Everything I Remember Buying At Claire’s, 1994 – 1999

Claire’s has filed for bankruptcy, and my 90s self would be shocked.  Claire’s was a boutique in the loosest sense of the word – it was more like a Toys R Us of tween accessories, and if my niece’s recent purchases of JoJo Siwa bows and unicorn hair extensions are any indication, it still is. Claire’s may be the latest victim of private-equity fund stewardship, but I think they may emerge…

Best Dressed at the 2018 Oscars

Best Dressed at the 2018 Oscars

Frances McDormand was thisclose to Cady Herron-ing her Oscars speech, Armie Hammer shot hot dogs at an unsuspecting movie theater-going audience, Kobe Bryant became an Oscar winner, and the La La Land/Moonlight jokes flowed like the tears I had for almost every performance of the nominated Original Songs. But as always, the fashion made headlines too and we’re just another blog adding to the…

2018 Winter Olympics Drinking/ Exercise Game

2018 Winter Olympics Drinking/ Exercise Game

There’s nothing like the Winter Olympics to remind you that you are not, in fact, an elite athlete. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun… or work on your fitness. If you’re having a raucous Olympics party, A) invite us and B) feel free to play the drinking game version (responsibly, and without driving, and you can use water). If you’re feeling a little less-than fit watching all of…

Mid-Olympics Round Up: PyeongChang 2018

Mid-Olympics Round Up: PyeongChang 2018

One week down in Pyeongchang. One week to go of me pretending I know how scoring works in every sport. Despite the fact it’s been cold and windy in South Korea, athletes are giving their all and we’re still rooting for our faves to win medals. Here are just a few highlights from the first week of the 2018 Winter Olympics. Drones! They Were DRONES! The opening ceremony of any Olympics games is all…

Me: Oh cool that chick did a somersault on her snowboard.

Olympics Announcer: AMAZING! She was the first to land a quadruple french toast raincoat ollie oop backslide September 11th in competition since Lwaxana Vetrovya invented the trick in 1982!

Me: That’s what I meant.

“My friend, Mirai, and I - four years ago, we got In-N-Out, we went back to her house, we went up to the roof of her house, and we were eating In-N-Out because we were so upset that we weren’t at the Olympic Games. And tonight, you know. The Olympics are truly magical because we came out here tonight, and - we’re roommates here staying in the Olympic Village - we gave each other a hug and I said, you know, “Mirai, we’re here. We did it.””
