Karolina Kurkova Probably Picked A Bad Time To Wear A Dress Printed With Assault Rifles

We’ve never been thrilled about the fashion industry’s fondness for taking a provocative image and printing it all over clothes for the sake of, well, more provocation. At best it seems like a pretty puerile exercise in rebellion, at worst it seems painfully ignorant. In the wake of a very recent, very violent national tragedy, though, it’s also ill-timed. More »

Like, Peace! The Worst Coachella Fashion Disasters, Week One

Like, Peace! The Worst Coachella Fashion Disasters, Week One

Ah, Coachella, a time for (particularly) clueless rich people to dress up like their idea of a ’60s bohemian and enjoy the latest major label chart-topping tunes from the comfort of cushy VIP pens.

Normally, we have a hard line about not making fun of off-duty (non red carpet) famous people, but most of these press-hungry jackasses relish Coachella as an opportunity to wear their cool poor person costume: a floppy hat, short shorts, shitloads of fringe, a leather headband, a $2000 handbag and–the best accessory–a big, dumb peace sign.

Fashion Disasters: Brandi Glanville Needs Your Attention More Than Usual

There’s kind of a fine line with accusing someone (especially a woman) of dressing for attention. Something about it really rubs us the wrong way–shouldn’t people (especially women) be able to dress for themselves? If a woman is wearing a mini-skirt, can’t it just be because she likes it?

Taylor Swift Is Hilariously Delusional In Elle

Remember when we used to do those Celebrities We Irrationaly Hate features? Jen wrote one on Paz de la Huerta, Jamie wrote one on Lana Del Rey, and there was a bit of feather ruffling over one about Alexa Chung. We stopped doing them because… it’s shitty. It’s probably constructive to avoid writing 2000 word screeds about hating someone you’ve never met.

But. We all want to write one about Taylor Swift, right? More »

Review Men Like Restaurants With New Lulu App, The Yelp Of Romance (For Girls!)

Review Men Like Restaurants With New Lulu App, The Yelp Of Romance (For Girls!)

Someone once Tweeted, ”Yelp.com: explore where local illiterates have recently stopped eating.”

If you are one of the many people who find Yelp to be a source of valuable information (not in the social anthropology sense), however, you may be receptive to this new Lulu app, which is to men as Yelp is to restaurants. All you need is a Facebook profile confirming your femaleness and you can go on Lulu and review exes, crushes, hook-ups, current loves, friends and relatives. Like meat, but with abs. More »

Author Of Esquire's Megan Fox Profile Would Like You To Know Which Famous Women Aren't As Hot As Megan Fox

As we mentioned, noted bombshell Megan Fox has the cover and corresponding interview of this month’s Esquire. In previews, the piece had already made the rounds for douchey quotes: Megan compares being famous to being bullied, yet still doesn’t see why people would rather spend their sympathy on those without mansions and Bentleys. Now, the full profile has made it online and intrepid bloggers have finally managed to read it. Turns out, the whole thing is about as fun as sticking pins in your eyes. More »
