If I had a dollar for every dude that defended disgusting behavior around women with “but I love and respect women!”

I would have gone with “why have children when you can have cake?” but that’s just how I roll. (Also, cake).

It’s like a base coat that thickens up the lashes and helps the mascara last longer and appear thicker. It’s uncolored and looks like paste, so you have to use colored mascara over it.

Mascara primers have come a LONG way since they first came out. I like the Lancome one a lot. I’m allergic to anything Dior except their lipsticks. I got my makeup done at the Sephora I work at once, and I forgot to tell my coworker that I’m allergic to Dior, and she put an eye cream from their line on me... I…

Also, how do you get them that thick and that long without any clumps? And those with fibers? Straight look like spiders on real people.

I have always wondered how makeup companies got away with that. It is SO obvious that the lash are fake. Show me what the mascara can REALLY do and I’ll buy it. For now, I’ll stick with my Maybelline Great Lash in the pink and green tube.

Mix up some cookie dough, put it in a mini muffin pan and bake, unwrap a bunch of mini Reese’s, and when the cookies come out of the oven, push a cup into each cookie. Eat while melty. Have mouth orgasm.

Wow, it’s like the lost Gospel of Reesus Christ.

I always thought I’d *want* a correctly ranked list, but now that it’s here I feel strangely adrift.

I am disappointed. I agree 100%. That’s not nearly as much fun as telling you how wrong you are.

Eggs or go home bitches. And memo to the Reese’s conglomerate: ditch those nasty Christmas trees. The peanut butter to chocolate ration is wrong, like a dog peed on the tree wrong.

Shoulders really determine wether this works well. I’ve been wearing mens shirts for years because my shoulders are wide. I have my favorites, which fit perfectly. But if you have narrow shoulders, it might not be your thing.

As someone on twitter said:

Official statement:

This of course harks straight back to Anne of Green Gables! Kate Beaton in Hark! A Vagrant says if there wasn’t a chapter where Anne finally got puffed sleeves, there would have been one where she slaughters the entire town.

Ruth Gordon talks about fabric a LOT in her books How to be a Victorian and How to be a Tudor. Wearing the cloths of those times would be like trying to wear sandpaper or wire—there was no stretch or give AT ALL.

You see it in Dickens, where the Cratchitt family women are described as “brave in ribbons, which are cheap and make a goodly show for sixpence.” Your best dress might have to last upwards of twenty years, so knowing all the little tricks of fashion to update was important.

My sister collects hand-made aprons for this reason - there’s a story behind it, behind the choice of fabric, rick-rack or lace, whether it’s a fancy ‘show’ apron or a work apron - just to many personal choices and individual personalities and some very bad seamstresses! (as well as very good ones) :)

You can also see where people weren’t that good at making clothes. I have a dress which I think is from the 50s that I got from a vintage shop. There was a whole bunch of them which must have come from one person, and all but the one I bought fit horribly. And even the one I got has a weird pleat at the front which…
