Pretty much every day to work as a wedding planner and did so as a teacher for a decade as well. They are my accessory. I wear mostly black and grey- shoes are my pop of color.

I've got two pair of stilettos (though several pairs of high heels), one is a pair of black 4in heels with a little rhinestone ankle buckle and I've worn those to fancy dinners with a lot of sitting. Lots of sitting. Those are purely decorative. The other is a pair of red suede boots with a 2in kitten heel and I…

IRL it isn't that attractive to see women hobbling around and weaving like they are drunk. You have to train like a dancer to wear stilettos well. And it does cause permanent shortening of your calf muscles.

In my teens and early 20's, I had a much higher tolerance. I still love heels, but only break them out for very special occasions, and weigh carefully the pair chosen against time planned sitting, standing, dancing, etc.

I don't understand how stilletos are things people wear and move around in.

Fun fact: I used to drive to work past a Sybaris on the north side of Chicago (on Milwaukee Avenue) and always had to giggle when I passed the Frito Lay distribution center right next door to this romantic getaway.

I don't think anyone wins at VD.

Same here.

OK so the name Sybaris sounds like a new STD. However it could be whenever I see "public" hot tub water I think infection.

This is from the NYT obit and it literally made my jaw drop...

Dove uses Microbeads. I heard this story on NPR and had no clue it was plastic either. Next time I was in the shower I isolated some beads in my hand, and low and behold: they did not dissolve! I stopped using them right then and there. I'm all about not doing insanely terrible things to the environment. I mean,…

That was my thought...

I always thought they were a paraffin or something like that. Something that would dissolve. Yikes.

Highly recommend making your own coffee scrub. Just ground coffee + oil of choice (I use jojoba). Smells amazing, messy but incredibly effective.

Not to mention the imploded testicles from G-force at impact.

What a load. If they are worried about sex organs shouldn't men be banned from biking?

By that logic, why aren't male ski jumper's testicles dragging on the ground?

Feel that? That's the steam from my undercarriage.

The two things that are perfect about this video, runners talking about running, and Californians announcing they're from California
