I'm glad to know that Michael Kors is over because I was just wondering if I had to shell out the cash for a purse. Now I can save money and just pretend I'm ahead of the fashion curve. So what purses are the cool athleisure kids buying now?

I have always said that by the time millenials are in the management positions, Casual Friday will be Casual Always. I'm a lawyer and I own two suits that I hardly ever wear. I do dress in business casual (no Nike or Under Armour if I want to remain employed) but even for client meetings I don't wear suits because…

I think there is a line and we do have to think very carefully about where it falls. I suspect the appropriate line will still let some awful people cover their tracks. The example I gave above is that arrest records can be public, but I don't want people who are arrested but never convicted to end up screwed over…

I think there are a lot of reasons why we should consider something like the "right to be forgotten", particularly when your online information might include things like arrest records for crimes where you were not actually found guilty of anything (or plead guilty - you get my drift).

Despite the username, I'm nearly always in the Chicago area, so that would be great!

I have a friend from Escanaba - talk about some crazy Yooper fun! I am from boring ole Detroit metro but with everyone having houses up north and such, we at least get a flavor for the country possibilities (and of course I also eventually fled to Chicago). :-)

Gendered baby clothes make me so damn annoyed. Someone asked me if my son was a girl. It was not upsetting - because he's a baby and it is impossible to tell just from looking at him unless he's naked. I don't think that a person not knowing his gender during infancy is going to do a damn thing to his psyche.

You have just selected my son's outfit for our next family party (off to find Oxford shirt and seersuckers).

That is true but it doesn't explain why nearly all children's outfits feature cartoon versions of dangerous animals. Why do all of my son's outfits feature sports themes (we are not sports people) or cartoon representations of animals that would eat him if given the chance? I would like to add that most of these are…

I'm of two minds here - I have a young son and I'm definitely a fan of clothes that are appropriate for play. On the other hand, 90% of the reason why my kid wears "comfortable" clothes is because I'm too lazy to dress him up further. If I got as far as a onesie AND pants for him, well, it must be a fancy day. If we…

Now watching these girls try to dig themselves out after a Minnesota snowstorm - THAT is a show I would watch.

Yeah, is there such a thing as a #humblecomplaint? "Oooh, I just hate waking up like this! The beauty so early in the morning hurts my eyes!"

Here's the thing - I grew up in the midwest, and at least from the promos they look and sound very much like any number of slightly insane women I know. I'm sure there are distinct cultures in the US but what bugs me is that other than the accents, this seems to be Real Housewives of the Country. Take away the accents…

Okay, serious question time for all you ladies who seem much more knowledgeable than me. I am pale, pale, pale with blue eyes and dark blond hair. I have almost no makeup knowledge but I think I need some. In order to just not look like a dead person on a daily basis and considering that I'm in my early 30s with…

When I first saw her picture I thought - what could Giuliana possibly complain about? She looks gorgeous!

I'm pretty sure this girl had time to organize shenanigans in part because she wasn't spending a lot of time turning in homework.

I wish Anderson Cooper would narrate my thoughts. He would make then so much more interesting.

No kidding. I would have used every last bit of those postpartum hormones to scratch my roommate's eyes out if she so much as took my newborn out of the room without my permission.

No kidding. Every woman who has ever been pregnant is reading this and going - the hell? Why would anyone pretend to be pregnant? The only reason to put up with the morning sickness and not drinking in the first place is so that you can get the baby without committing a felony. If I have to fake being pregnant and…

My APUSH was fantastic. Also, my teacher studied the previous tests every year for patterns to guess what the DBQ was going to be. He guessed that year we were due for a 1950's foreign policy question so we studied the Cold War like crazy. Test day comes - we open the DBQ - and my entire class lets out a gasp. The…
