Yeah I don't hate the theory, but the execution is BLECH. Read more

Well, they do look terrible together, but as individual pieces I think they are pretty! Read more

Hey, that's what I'd be doing. Read more

Yeah, I think they've debunked the pubic hair story. But it's just such a GREAT rumor. Read more

Oh my God, so THAT'S where I know him from! Read more

loooool whoops Read more

Uh oh be careful or you'll summon the Victorianists to come tell us all about Ruskin Read more

I would never, ever take my cat outside in New York City in anything other than a carrier. I am getting anxiety just looking at these pictures. Read more

Well, the point is that it's one of those bold failures. Read more

Well, for context, the term was really born in a very fat activist community that was all about destigmatizing the term, under the principle that it's just an adjective and shouldn't carry a value judgement. Read more

Modcloth, Nordstrom, Eloquii (I know a lot of people hate nu-Eloquii but their basic-ish stuff is good — got some great jeans and a midi skirt I really love), Old Navy for basics like t-shirts. I occasionally score something really great from Land's End. Also as much as I bitch about them, I still do a lot of Lane… Read more

I shop more at Modcloth than Asos because I'm pear shaped and the A-line skirts work. (And I want them to poof just right, so I need them in cotton.) But I do really love that we now have both options. It's so nice not to have to pick between a) rockabilly b) sad sack black crap and c) muumuus. Read more

I'm actually pleasantly surprised! Though, like I said, I would find "is it your period yet? is it your period yet? is it your period yet????" very annoying. Read more

Modal is a POX. Read more

I think it makes marketing easier, if you can define it down into one or two types of people. You can actually focus on delivering what that specific woman wants, as opposed to being Jack of all trades and master of none. Read more

That actually has really surprised me! I've been looking into learning to sew just as a life skill, and the pattern options were less than impressive. My options are actually better in stores. Read more

Noooo, don't tempt them to overextend themselves! I wonder whether maybe that's the longer-term solution to the problem of the fractured customer base — online shopping is a pain, but it means they don't have to worry about, like, foot traffic disappearing from the mall because another better mall got built two towns… Read more

I think faithful vs. less faithful adaptation debates are fascinating because I love the books that I love, but sometimes I think if you love something you gotta let it free. For instance, unpopular opinion BUT I prefer the Kiera Knightley Pride and Prejudice. Read more

Tricky Dick, I had no idea you had such strong feelings about Olive Garden! Read more
