I think there will be a good deal of fit issues, especially with the shift dresses. There were no size charts published ahead of time and during the madness, and many women on social media confessed to buying multiple sizes because they were confused on whether a 6 was “Lilly 6” or a “Target 6”.

Agree with Tom + Lorenzo but LOL at “costumers.” I had to fight with my phone to even get it to allow that spelling.

The problem with these collections is that Target doesn’t have anything in place to stop abusive resellers. I forget what collection it was, but there was a story a year or two ago of a woman who went in to Target, saw the special collection out early and filled up a bunch of carts and bought the entire collection to

And, meanwhile, next time some basic chick is rocking Lilly in public, some soror will eyeball the girl and sniff, “Yeah, ‘for Target’, not the REAL Lilly” the same way they did with Isaac Mizrahi’s shit.

Jezebel is a place where people come to find things to get self-righteously mad about. What do you expect?

Obviously it didn’t come across, but I wrote this post making fun of my self. Yes, the burn was lame, that was sort of the point. The story wasn’t meant to be about how cool and awesome I was. I mean- it ends with me shaking my hair as if I “won” and then getting put in handcuffs. I was 21 and drunk and stupid. I

This is relevent to my life experiences!

This just made me remember a great one from a friend of mine at an appointment with a student health doctor. Her name’s Kate, but for some reason this guy called her Katie. Then when she corrected him, he got a little pissy about it and said something like “Eh, what’s the difference?” She looked at his name tag, which

When I was in 4th grade, I was already nearly 5’10”. Which is my current height. I was basically a year from finishing puberty. They thought I had a pituitary tumor and might die. Turns out I just have a huge pituitary and some hormone disorders. Point is, shit was hard for youngrootof. Kids were fucking dickbags.

Well I thought your story was hilarious. You clearly know you were being stupid, I don't know what these people are expecting of you, you can't exactly go back in time and undo it.

You handled that well. People who assume that you don’t have a disability because it’s something they can’t see, and especially people who make pointed comments about it to you about are ...

I’m a lawyer, and at the time of this incident was practicing in several fairly small and rural Southern counties. I’d been out of law school for 2 or 3 years, long enough to be tired of the crap I would fairly regularly get from some older male lawyers. I had a trial in the neighboring county, and my opposing counsel

Well yes exactly. I mean I *thought* it was a burn at the time, and even his cop buddy laughed, but I obviously sounded ridiculous. I guess the story came off as callous or flippant about drunk driving though. That wasn’t my intention, though I can see how it reads like that. It was one of those horrible one time

An American colleague (relevant) tells this one about himself. He was on a plane in Japan, on final approach to Hiroshima, when he noticed how new the city’s architecture appeared from the window. His Japanese traveling companion replied, “yes, we had a fresh start in 1945.”

I was working at the video desk at the library in the dark years before DVDs, blu-rays, or even streaming or digital downloads! It was a brutal time.

So there was this guy who would always sexually harass me on my way home from work. I’d get off the train and walk by this auto repair shop. This motherfucker didn’t even work at the shop — the shop owner described him as a “parasite” who loitered outside of the shop trying to buy up junkers and always hollering at

Being British and studying in the US, I acquired the rather unimaginative nickname ‘England’. I was sitting in my dorm room with my new boyfriend and a (finger)blast from the past, and the blast from the past casually mentions that we banged, and looks to the boyfriend for a reaction. Boyfriend’s jaw twitches a

Well I was lucky that I was pulled over truthfully-I was arrogant and young, something that, I assume by your tone, you have never been. Also unless Winston Churchill is me, I didn’t steal this story from anyone. Just because the burn was stolen from him -many burns *are* reappropriated. What makes something a burn is

I’ve told this story before, but here it goes again.
