Why Did You Wear That: T-ing Up

By Kirsten|September 28th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

Anyone who knows me, knows that I could basically live my life in a t-shirt… a sexy t-shirt, of course. The more slouchy and see through the better. There’s something so basic and easy about putting on a t-shirt. It would almost be difficult to get it wrong. But alas, many of you have. Here’s a collection of some great t’s to sprinkle into your wardrobe. Perfect for lazy Saturday brunches or sexy Thursday nights out.

Why Did You Eat That: Steel Magnolia

By Kirsten|September 27th, 2010|Los Angeles, Why Did You Eat That?|

Magnolia-stellata-blog-733828-1

It may now be known as the infamous location of Lilo’s Tweet about failing her drug test, but Magnolia was worth stopping by well before LoLo got hammered. With the original location in the heart of Hollywood, it’s the perfect place to people watch in the evenings. Or for a more secluded moment, take a seat out on the back deck. I was excited to see a second location in DTLA for a much more chill atmosphere.

Upon arrival at Magnolia, you must order a Grape Collins (unless, of course, you’re wearing your SCRAM bracelet). It is a perfectly refreshing mixture of muddled grapes and deliciousness.

After a quick toast to good company, go ahead and be sure to order the tuna tartare. It’s something I’d like to call lifechanging. Piled atop a fresh avocado, the tuna is super fresh and seasoned just enough. If you’re not much for seafood, the macaroni and cheese is a surefire hit. The herb roasted organic chicken and the marinated skirt steak are both home runs in the entree department (although the the brussels sprouts steal the show in my opinion).

Oh… and as if you even have any room left… there’s the mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwich to top things off.

Friday Frocks: Let Them Wear Drapes!

Ugh. It’s Friday and you have Nothing. To. Wear.

Well, don’t get all dramatic like Scarlett O’Hara and start ripping down the drapes (Gone with the Wind, ladies. If you have not read the book, run don’t walk to get a copy). While Ms. O’Hara may have gone a tad overboard, she was onto something. Draping. A trend that has stuck around for a few seasons now is a great way to look sexy and sleek while still hiding any “problem areas” (ha! as if we have any). In my mind, it’s a more modest version of the bodycon dress. It shows all your curves without requiring the use of Commandos and starvation.

Why Did You Wear That: Rihanna (AGAIN)

By Kirsten|September 24th, 2010|Celebrity Style|

What. The. Hell? I’m not sure I even know where to begin. I’d like to address her outfit, but am currently so caught off guard by whatever the hell is happening on her head. Is she a muppet? Raggedy Ann? Is she still “burning” from her Eminem video? Why is she doing this??? She used to be so pretty! Riri… help me help you.

The List Volume XX

french-manicure-2

Well, wouldn’t you know? It’s that time again… and this week I’m not feeling as fluffy kitty and rainbow-y. So, here. we. go…

If you’re going to write a HEADLINE… please at least spell it right. If you think that’s how you spell “loses” then you’re dumber than we thought.
Loud, mouthy eaters.
Lindsay Lohan is an asshole.
Ali Lohan is also an asshole.
Hypochondriac pet owners. Scout is going to be just fine, ma’am.
Trailer parks
Um, what’s the stink about Katy Perry on Sesame Street? I mean, shouldn’t wardrobe have caught that? And really… is it that bad? It’s about as risque as an ice skater or a gymnast. Do you let your kids watch the Olympics? Thought so.
People who take the credit for other’s work.
Okay then, I’ll spell it out: Todd Goldman
Having to get out of bed when you just found the perfect spot.
