I will find a way to do my box reviews. While I would love if Jezebel would keep me on, I have no idea if that will be possible. I will either do my own site or find somewhere else to write for. I love doing the reviews so much. My favorite part was always talking to the readers. Follow me on Twitter (brandikirch),…

This is completely dismaying: no more Too Much, Girl! No more beauty box reviews by Brandi! No more Mall Makeovers! No more 24-Hour Product Diaries! And more than anything, no more awesome commentariat and their tips and recommendations.

That feminist news has grown increasingly rare already - have to dig through pages of celebrity gossip stories to find something interesting. So, yeah, it does seem that all women care about is pop culture, at least as Gawker understands women. At least the cuts leave me with no reason to come here anymore, if they’re…

I can’t believe millihelen is over and Jane Marie is leaving (or worse, being pushed out). This is by far one of the best Jezebel’s sub-blog, I love, love Deep Cuts, the 24 hours Beauty Diaries, the mall makeovers stories, the talk about make-up and beauty routines, the tips and tricks...and of course the best part is…

I’m firmly team “do not buy gifts for your boss”. You can gift down (your staff, assistant, etc.) but gifting up is awkward unless you have a significant personal friendship. Your boss doesn’t want you to spend money on her.

This is just an attempted workaround in order to avoid the word ‘divorce’ when it’s still the same result. My ex wanted to stay together forever without getting married (which is cool if you’re into it), with this bogus logic: “If I get married and divorced, I’ll be just like my parents.” So I dumped him, and it…

Why should we be celebrating couples who’ve been together for 50-75 years, she asks, when the truth is that many of these people are likely unhappy and living in “loveless and sexless” relationships? Why do we put forever marriage on such a pedestal?

Honestly, I don’t really see how having a trial marriage is that different from living together for a year or two before marriage. Except perhaps combining your finances, living together will give you the same day-to-day experience as being married. And hopefully you’ll have thoroughly discussed finances and any other…

I read your foundation regimen and was so concerned about the lack of SPF that I scrolled up to see if your moisturizer had SPF (phew!), so who is the pervert, really?

That said, I’ll sometimes do this thing where I pretend that I’m an actress and my bathroom is the makeup trailer (yes, I am almost 30 years old), which makes putting on makeup (I guess I’m both the actress and the makeup artist?) even MORE fun. You should try it.

I heard a version this morning with the genders of the singers swapped. It was not less creepy.

While we’re at it, can we delete “Baby’s It’s Cold Outside” from all Christmas playlists?

I love the rock.

I’ll gladly pay the $5. I’d happily pay $7 per box for what they’ve meant to my daughter.

i think you could do an ivory veil and it would pick up the ivory tones so nicely! this dress looks so amazing!

I’m currently re-watching GG and the other night it was a later episode where she completely shuts down Sheira (?) Huntzberger at the fundraiser and I had a completely identical thought as to when it first aired: when on point, Emily Gilmore is my spirit animal.

The only times I cried watching Gilmore Girls were Emily Gilmore moments. I loved that scene.

I loved my veil so much. Started off not wanting something small and simple and by then end I ended up pretty ott.

My veil was exactly three yards, in three one-yard layers, of white tulle stitched to a comb, without embellishment. It was $119, and could have been made for approximately $0.19 (no exaggeration). It was a hand-me-down from my best friend, who’d gotten married the summer before me, and realized after a post-wedding…
