    Reading the racial discrimination charges against Nordstrom and their fucked up commission policies makes me sad.


    I really like Nordstrom because they always have great service. I hate to hear that when I return something the nice employee that helped me gets fucked over in the end.


    Way to ruin my morning coffee Nordstrom *shakes fist*

    Every time a new Face of Loreal (or CoverGirl or Clairol, &c) is announced, I wonder if these women know or give a rip that the aforementioned companies conduct animal testing in their labs. For cosmetics. Because that's entirely necessary.

    Okay, done ranting.

    @ritualtheory: now available on vinyl:

    Its confusing to me that it is even still done. Is it cheaper? There are tons of brands on the market that test products without the use of emails. wtf yo.

    @yousername: Honestly, I have no idea why it's still done. That's an excellent question. Habit? Convenience? Yeah, many, many companies manage to do nicely without either harming animals themselves or using products by companies that do so. And Dr. Hauschka's pretty pricey, but no more than Lancome.


    J'deteste.

    They do know Freida Pinto is brown, right? Or are they just going to whitewash her like they do with Rai? Meh. This desi girl is more excited by Evangeline Lily.

    I was in H&M yesterday, perusing the Matthew Williamson stuff, and it was disappointing.


    The shots of Julia Roitfeld's apartment is really more of a shoot of her...stuff. Blah.

    It's about time Evangeline Lilly's agent got off his butt and got her something. She's so gorgeous, on this big hit show, and the only other thing I've seen her in (ad or otherwise) was some craptastic carpet ad in a magazine. She should be EVERYPLACE by now.

    Julia Restoin-Roitfeld's apt is generally delicious, but my favorite part is the medicine cabinet shot. Can you IMAGINE having an apartment in NYC with a medicine cabinet big enough for allll those bottles & things?


    I cannot.

    Topshop is looking for another location in NYC? Hmm, I have an idea, how about you go to another city? Like oh, I don't know, maybe the capital of the United States? Yeah, maybe try that one out before building a second one on a tiny island. Kthx.

    Anyone see the foundation ad where they pour it over a golf ball?

    Thanks for comparing my pores to the divots on a golf ball.

    Putting on mascara makes me feel extremely fulfilled. As for my well-being, I feel absolutely nauseous unless I'm wearing foundation.


    P.S. You guys! I am on a train right now! Using special train wi-fi. I am such a loser because this is way too exciting for me!!!

    @Annabellie: I was on an AirTran flight yesterday and they were advertising free wi-fi on all their planes. Imagine my disappointment when I learned that the wi-fi wouldn't be available until mid-summer.
