Some adults look great with bangs. I did when I was 25, but as an almost 40 year old, not so much. I thought I would look French and instead—no. Bangs are also hard if your hair has a natural cowlick, cuz they won’t lie evenly and will separate. And if you’re prone to dark under eye circles as I am—forget it.

I’m a size 8 and my thighs are muscular, but not particularly gigantic. I could see my cellulite through the one pair of Lulu pants I have ever had on. It was horrifying. I’m somebody who happily lives in yoga pants when given the opportunity and will shell out 90 dollars for a pair if I think it’s worth it, and Lulu…

Exactly. Now that guy I met on OKC who I told to leave me alone after he wouldn’t stop texting me and asking me out even though I told him I was busy is going to have a platform for “warning” other guys about how cold and indifferent I am.

Since truffles are pretty expensive, I don’t see how there could be a cost effective way of using them in a food as mass produced as mainstream potato chips while also delivering a satisfying eating experience.

Pretty sure he also wrote the screenplay for Game Change. Danny Strong can do no wrong.

Oh, definitely. He was treating me like a dumb slut when he was too stupid to see the double standard. It was a time in my life when I craved attention from men as a form of personal validation (which I have since gotten over), so I put up with it for far longer than I should have.

It boggles my mind that they couldn’t have found a more appropriate fat person to pay to eat sandwiches.

I had a similar experience a while back. About ten years ago I picked up this guy at a bar and took him home with me. We had sex, and continued to see one another on a casual basis for the next several months. We got along well, and I was too dumb at the time to realize that a guy who only calls you after 10 p.m. to…

For a moment I got my Dakotas mixed up and thought for a second this was Dakota Fanning and was totally terrified about the age difference. This Dakota: meh.

From what I understand, there’s a chemical reaction that happens when heat is applied to hair coated with the blowout solution wherein whatever is in the solution turns into formaldehyde. That’s how they’re able to say it’s formaldehyde-free. Technically it is—in the bottle. I wish more hair stylists were honest about…

Thicken your lashes with mascara you should!

I mean it in the sense that I have a repetitive strain injury in my back from sitting at a desk all day, and working out in the morning makes me stronger and provides some conditioning (doctor’s orders). I don’t mean it in the sense that I think I’m going to live forever or not die of a heart attack at 55 b/c I dash…

I find it’s much easier to follow a morning workout routine in the summer than in the winter when it’s considerably darker and colder (although investing in one of those SAD lamp/alarm clocks might help). I’m definitely not a morning person, but I try to reserve an hour every morning to walk to the gym, do some gentle…

I’m not a morning person either. My parents love to tell stories about what a grump I was in the morning growing up, and an ex-boyfriend of mine used to refer to me as Perturbia Grumpenstein first thing in the morning. I have a job with a very flexible arrival and departure schedule, so I’ve basically crafted a…

I was awoken this morning by my cat head-butting me in the face repeatedly. My mom’s cat wakes her up in the morning by licking her eyelids.

Slightly off topic, but can somebody explain to me why yoga classes make you face one another? It’s so awkward. I hate doing yoga while acting like I’m not staring at a complete stranger.

This my love for vintage Coach bags—they look great beaten up!

I would love to own a classic quilted Chanel purse with a chain strap, but beyond that, I can't fathom paying so much for a purse.

No, just upcycled cvs bags woven into messenger bags
