Buddy Bear is the worst of those, by far.

I would sample that fragrance at Sephora, for sure.

My understanding is that an awful lot of the rules are different for the celebrities.

As a fellow pregnant woman with no other kids, I don’t know exactly what my opinion will be worth to you, but my suspicion is that breastfeeding is beneficial, but not even remotely worth putting your own health (mental or physical) in danger. I personally plan to try to breastfeed through maternity leave if I can,…

I am pregnant, and I avoid all mommy messaging boards as much as possible. It’s so...relaxing.

The second one just seems so vague. “While I have no problem with her being upper middle class, I do realize she is proud, and used to deference.” For one thing, it sounds like she’s writing a complaint about Mr. Darcy. For another thing, I’m going to need an example or two, otherwise I have to assume the LW’s…

Yeah, but...assuming the man in the relationship is straight, he will probably want a threesome with two women. If the woman isn’t into that, it’s not quite as fair. I think I’d rather have a foursome.

We have one here. Only one of the parties is married, and both of them are past retirement age. I think she is waiting for her husband to die.*

Ultimatums get a bad rap. Using them to manipulate someone is bad, but stating what you can and cannot live with is necessary.

And in those couples, the third person often thinks that everyone is on board. Note: If anyone ever tells you, “Don’t worry, we have an understanding,” you may want to get verbal or written confirmation from their partner.

Hello, new friend!

I know that RDJ is definitely good friends with Pitt, and that when the Pitt Jolie divorce new first broke, Pitt would go to RDJ’s house to complain about Jolie all the time. I do not know these people, but my mother’s friend does.

I’ve never lived in a place where it was harder to get non-conforming clothes than LA. This place is a style wasteland. I’ve decided to start shopping more when I travel, as a part of my budget, so I can get things that are just impossible to find here. (hats that are not trilby or floppy sunhats, a nice warm…

See, that’s why I like white- a lot of them say not to bleach, but I bleach the shit out of them when I need to.

I could work the first two, but I would style the entire outfit to look more Edwardian.

My aesthetic: Dita Von Teese meets Niles Crane meets Vanessa Ives.

Yep. I love a long fitted tee with a scoop or v neck, but Hanes three packs take my hourglass and turn it into a watermelon. I can’t feel comfortable in them because I don’t feel like me. And great goddess, a crew neck with big boobs makes them look so very long and flat.

I know, right?! And they will be far better quality than whatever a person can stitch together from 15 iPad shots.

In France I’ve read that you get 10 sessions of perineal reeducation for your pelvic floor. I am pregnant and asked my OB-GYN if I should start doing pelvic floor exercises now, or wait until after giving birth, and she said, “You can start now, if you want, but you don’t ever have to do them if you don’t want to or…

Ugh, and the hot air blowers so often smell like fetid water.
