Ugh, I hear you. I’m on another streak of doing the apps, in NYC, and it’s just...soul-sucking. I really haven’t found anything. The last guy I dated seriously for awhile, I overlooked so many red flags because he was sane and a decent person and so I hung on for dear life and forgave too many things, because I wanted…

This is fairly typical female friend behavior.

In other sad news, if you follow extreme sports/skateboarding (or, in general, extremely attractive men) at all, Dylan Rieder died today at age 28 from cancer. Even if you don’t understand skateboarding, his stuff is beautiful to watch.

Yes! It’s a cocoon coat, which I feel usually looks good on talls. Sleeves are just a tad bit long on me, and the shoulders are a bit slouchy. I think that it would make you look loooong and leggy, in a good way :).

The Madewell City Grid coat is arguably the best purchase I have made for myself in the past ten years. (It’s gorgeous, but their website never does it justice. WHY are so many Madewell photos online so unflattering?!) I promise that this thing makes me look put together, even when NYC winters make me want to cry.

I’ve had a lot of issues trying to get any sort of conversation started on Bumble. In my experience, the guys tend to be more attractive, but that isn’t particularly helpful when none of your matches will write you back. I like the concept of it, for sure, but the only app I’ve ever had success on has been Tinder,…

Yes. Also why are so many people posing with drugged-out tigers?!!!

I was in a relationship for a few months with a guy I met on Tinder. He was the first person I ever met off of a dating app, and it went well until non-app-related real life issues broke us up.

Ugh. I remember that, and I remember assuming that they must have moved out or something for a few weeks, because it was literally just a rowhouse directly on the street and she didn’t even have the additional protection of a lobby or doorman or a front yard with a fence.

That’s true. I work in beauty, and skincare has grown at a much faster pace than any of the other sectors of the industry. The trend reports that come out these days are almost always more focused on skin. Started with the Clarisonic craze and ballooned from there.

Rory hadn’t met all of her boyfriends before she left for college. She met Logan in her second year, when she was going through that shit with Dean.

Yes. He was definitely a bit of a dick when he was dating Rory, but I think that it was explained pretty well that he wasn’t a bad person, just had some serious family issues. When he came back for an episode later on, I thought that they did a really good job of showing potential for a more mature, less angry…

UGH. I don’t love BdB, but the way that Cuomo seems to go out of his way to make the mayor’s job more difficult pisses me off. The Chelsea incident was a textbook example - refused to hold a press conference with the mayor, held one instead the next day (with a few glamour shots of him authoritatively striding down…

Actually, Pirates had a very hardcore fanbase of teenagers and young adults back when the first movie was released. If Disney had followed up with solid sequels, they could have sustained it. But they didn’t.

Textbook example of if you don’t make your company a place where people want to work, they will not stay and your company is going to seriously suffer from it. You’ve got a lot of talented people who now, in this post-recession economy, actually have options. And if I am looking to switch jobs at a fashion startup,…

Ugh. This is why I was upset when Disney got a hold of Star Wars.* They take anything that is successful and wring it dry of every last possible cent, at the expense of making good content.

Any celebrity is traceable when they attend something like PFW because of the paparazzi.

That would make more sense.

Going to hazard a guess and say that I doubt she put every piece of jewelry she brought with her on whenever she left the hotel room. She probably brought a bunch of options for each outfit.

If you just wanted jewelry, wouldn’t it be easier to rob her when she is not in the room and most of her security team is out with her? This sounds like they specifically wanted to catch her alone, to threaten or harm her.
