It's true! The big necklaces thing is so true. You need to have 70+ year to carry a true statement necklace.

I'm really looking forward to the "advanced style" fashion years ahead. I just bought a pair of Eileen Fisher pants and those things are the first pair of pants that agree with my shape. Age appropriate clothes don't look right on me.

While sometimes I find myself wanting us to stop separating what girls do and what boys do. And then bubbling becomes a thing and I want so badly for headlines to accurately assign this to dudes.

bullshit detected: table too close to the wall. Dining set looks middle class.

Ya I thought the same thing. Seems kinda like a leadership opportunity to get these parents together and form a PM group and not really an opportunity to call others out.

Ok!, sweet sweet, OK! You've never had the pleasure of wearing dance tights. They're like 3 ply panty hose and crazy shiny. They are the only thing I miss about dance classes as a kid (despite the fact that they were nowhere my skin color)

Of course she doesn't act like she knows. She's cool. She's famous- way more famous than Curcurito. If there was a band that was super amazing and worth knowing- she'd know because she probably hangs with them. This is such a snooty art student at the frat party move.

this. this over and over. while i don't spend too much time feeling bad about it, there is a sadness to those who fight this so hard. they don't get it. they haven't experienced love or pleasure in a way that makes it worth fighting for so the next best thing for them is fighting against it.

Ya I try and avoid the body snark thing too. For a million bucks, I could not for the life of me guess how old they are.

yea, across the board, as an adult you become your own person. anything less is failure to launch. also $240K is a fuckaroo of money. who is bankrolling this?

likewise. but it's one of those things that like, I can't begin to understand. The connection- the competition- its all a bit much for me. I'm not really surprised that it becomes material for creepiness in movies.

ya, im in nyc now and (this is so gross) I basically have a small pile of bras by the door. I take mine off the second i get in and put one on at the last minute before i leave. Or I just "forget to wear one" which isn't really something i can pull off.

It just seems like the very last thing you would want to skimp on. (If you ever consider taking up the au pair gig again, I'll be your intern. I pour a mean glass of wine and I always carry sunscreen)

i think this story on the surface level sounds like that "oh gosh, what a nightmare for these folks!" but thats just the knee jerk reaction. Any arrangement that makes it impossible for one party to leave is pure cruelty. This situation seems no win all around.

you word this beautifully and i think you're right. the thing is, i don't think this is the lesson learning crowd. i think they will likely double down on their victimhood here.

It blows my mind. Like I could understand if the agreement was that she would help out by being the after school child care for the family (like say, for the hours of 3-6) and in exchange would receive room and board and the ability to have another job to make actual money. What really gets me is this: people, this…

Is exchanging nanny services for just room and board something that's common? I feel like it seems wildly unfair and cruel. Is she expected then to have another job on top of her childcare duties? This woman seems unhinged and desperate but my stomach churns at the hopelessness of working and never receiving cash…

it's so gross. i love it.

I've become a chronic robe wearer in lieu of no pants. I think it's more decent but actually it's way of sloppier. Beware, a terry cloth robe (big pockets- for a cell phone and maybe a snack) might be in your future.

there's only one thing in this picture I'd like to punt. it's not the football...
