Etsy Spotlight: How Many Cosmetic Bags is Too Many Cosmetic Bags?

Pamela Barsky Shop on Etsy makes me seriously ask myself that question.  Also: how much money is too much money to spend on lots of cosmetic bags? Why am I so taken with cosmetic bags? Maybe it’s because the artist seems to understand my affinity for New York, and not in a I’ve-never-been-to-New-York-but-I-own-the-Sex-and-the-City-box-set kind of way.  But in […]

Buying fakes used to be a faux pas, but by buying items that say things like […]

some ecards i'm a big kid now

You know you’re an adult when…

You no longer think it’s worth it to shop at Forever 21 (and kind of question how you ever thought it was). You’re starting to see that H&M is really just Forever 21 with better branding, and you’ve stopped trying to understand the hype.

Kanye West on Paparazzi

Kanye West appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Wednesday night to clear the air about his beef with the late night host, his interview with BBC, and his relationship with the paparazzi.  It was his words on the latter that I found amusing, not to mention honest and accurate.  I mean, if it weren’t for paparazzi, how would […]
