The Gap has come under fire from a Christian group that accuses it of failing to use the word "Christmas" in its holiday advertising and mailings
Why are some xtians so annoying? I mean, is there something in the bible I'm missing? I haven't heard Jewish (or Muslim people) people getting annoyed at the Gap for not mentioning Hanukkah (or Ramadan).
Seriously, some xtians, stop being babies/attention whores. Not everyone cares about you/your religion/your holiday. #sophietheallet
with reference to the skin lightening stuff in India, while I agree that a lot of that ties into the Indian caste system, but a huge part of is tied in strongly with the concept of 'brown englishmen' etc #brangelinajewelry
@rd2uk: I don't know, I saw skin lightening lotions all over Asia. I think it's just used to be a marker of wealth/beauty, like how it used to be cool to be overweight and pale in the US if you were wealthy and you weren't working all the time.
A side note, my friend was absolutely shocked when we first came across lightening cream, because she was so used to pale being undesirable. #brangelinajewelry
@Heidi Lengdorfer: totally agree with both of you, just saying that in the case of india colonization plays a huuuuge role in people wanting to be lighter skinned/speaking english/wearig western clothes etc. obv theres loads of other factors that play into all of this, such as those that ya'll have mentioned. #brangelinajewelry
@graciousplum: I once bought Jimmy Choo heels at a second hand store. They were in great condition and only $30, so I couldn't believe my luck. When I got them home, I realized they are the most UNCOMFORTABLE shoes ever. It's not that they're painful; I've never worn them long enough to feel pain because they are literally impossible to walk in. Something about the balance is off. I cannot walk more than a couple of steps in them. And I am someone who taught myself to walk normally in 6" (no platform) fetish heels. I don't get it. #brangelinajewelry
@Oleander: I firmly believe that this, rather than all the talk on Sex and the City, is why Manolo Blahnik is more popular than Jimmy Choo. MBs are *really, really comfortable*. #brangelinajewelry
@girlgonemild: After all of the excitement when H&M finally opened a store in LA, I thought I would find all sorts of awesome things there. So far most of what I've seen has looked like it just stepped out of a time machine from 1986. #brangelinajewelry
I'm sorry but those are some butt-ugly necklaces Angelina. They look like that weird Lord of the Rings themed jewelry section in SkyMall magazines. #brangelinajewelry

Or maybe I'm just bitter that they don't carry shoes in my size. #brangelinajewelry
