I'm not entirely against loose clothes, but (ironically) as I've gotten older I find that baggy styles do me no favors at all. Being short I can just start looking like a brick if I'm not careful. Yes this is the local Eileen Fisher outlet — there are others. They have sales...

I'm right there with you — that was fun! I don't watch the show but may have to start. I love a sexy power suit.

OMG St. John reminds me of the older female execs at the global financial services firm I used to work for ... it was like a uniform — all those brass buttons, too-snug knits — super-expensive but safe and appropriate. I look at it and I twitch.

I used to wear a lot of Eileen Fisher, and loved it; still hang on to a few key pieces. I also live near an EF store and outlet, so that helped with the exhorbitant cost. Was just looking at it again in Bloomingdales, but I just can't w/the prices for a boxy, neutering shape, even if the fabric is luscious. I didn't…

I'll have whatever Beyonce's thighs are having. They, and she, look amazing and fierce and beautiful and not stick thin but athletic and real (albeit extremely sculpted and helped along by the controversial dance hose), if not as thick as they used to be.

Ugh she is all things! She manages to come across as refreshingly normal/regular, while of course sounding amazingly intelligent and dialed-in and nice. Interesting to hear about her control over her style choices.

OMG that was hilarious! Your gif skills are wicked. Reading it is a little scary, as I'm working up to getting back into dating after the end of my LTR. I'm a different age/geo area than you, but I'm not sure that will protect me from the creepers and bad-grammar men, whose posts make me twitch.

What does it say about me that my first thought was "fire hydrant"? As a recovering Catholic I'm all for subverting the iconography in whatever way possible.

Ugh I'm with her on the younger biracial/Latino guys. Serious weak spot. Marc Anthony's a little too skinny for my taste. But a short, athletically built latino? TRIFECTA. PS I think Pitbull is sexy as well, despite the rumors of his awfulness. Add growly machismo to my other 3 characteristics? I'm a Gone girl.

I have followed this case on and off since it happened, as I was living in NYC at the time and it hit so close to home. The Village Voice at the time ran a headline along the lines of "28 and White. It Could have Been Me" and that's exactly how I felt, being the same age, a jogger, etc. The city seemed so dangerous…

I "want" Spanx because I want to look as hot as possible in the clothes I buy, and they help with that. Guess I'm a feminist who's willing to suffer a little for beauty, male-gaze defined or otherwise.

I've tried several brands, and I do think real Spanx are the best and worth the $$. I have a pair that go up to my bra line and down to my thighs, and they really do the trick, as my belly/waist is where I need shaping. So with them there isn't that annoying middle roll. I am short waisted (and short) so maybe it's…

Absolutely, she's one of the most gorgeous women on the planet (along with Penelope Cruz). I share her coloring but not her ethnicity. I can pretend.

I second that emotion...

I am with many of the commenters in that I was at first, "oh so sad," and then OMG ANTONIO BANDERAS IS AVAILABLE I WILL FIND HIM AND THROW MYSELF UPON HIM HE WILL BE MINE!!!!1!! I have a thing for Latino men and my ideal is one who is age-appropriate, still gorgeous yet mature and somewhat sensible/evolved. Of course…

Nerd power! My people!

Wow I adore her. So sexy at any/every age. Great actress, solid person. The whole issue of children or not is one I've wrestled with. I never really felt the clock ticking, was always on the fence about it, and spent the last 20 years with a partner who def did NOT want kids so that was that. I've always maintained…

Dude you must be very young... I don't know the state of Paul Simon's health right now, but 72 doesn't necessarily mean needing caregiving, old, frail, etc. Do not make assumptions like that — very ageist. There are plenty of 70-somethings running around who are super active and healthy and engaged. It's not…

My undying attraction to him is starting to squick me out a little. I realize that here he looks like the grown-up version of my 20-year-old nephew, who is also gorgeous, sweet and adorable. It's feeling a little incestuous to me.

Wow, I was a huge Dexter fan and this never even occurred to me when I read the article. I don't judge you though. Although I feel like a slightly better person for having not gone there. <jk>
