10 Things I Dislike ALMOST As Much As Leggings Worn As pants

By Kirsten|February 12th, 2009|The List|

I think it’s pretty clear how I feel about leggings worn as pants, but there are more things in the world that disturb me nearly as much. Here’s the top ten:

True Religion jeans. No need to explain again.
Rude men. I don’t like rude people in general, but a rude man is the worst. What happened to being a gentleman?
Blowing your nose in public. There is a girl who sits near my desk at work and she has been blowing her nose continuously for the past two weeks. It’s taken everything in me not to just spazz out, especially when she ate tuna fish for lunch the other day.
Know it alls. You don’t know everything. Shut up.
Dried apples. Had a bad experience as a five year old. Have never quite recovered.
Logo handbags/clothing/etc. It’s so passe, especially during a recession. We get it, you have a Fendi bag.I won’t lie, I own a Louis Vuitton bag, but I couldn’t tell you the last time I carried it. I try not to be a walking advertisement. I prefer the understated. *Note: this rule goes out the window if your logo bag happens to be awesome and vintage. That’s the only time it’s cool.
Liars. Maybe it is because I have the guiltiest conscience in the world and probably couldn’t tell a lie to save my life, but I really have a hard time understanding why people lie. The truth hurts, but it also sets you free.
Fake tans, fake nails, fake hair. Gross, gross, grossest. By fake tan, I do mean tanning beds. I also mean poorly done self tanners. Cancer and wrinkles aren’t sexy and neither is looking like a tangerine. I don’t even know where to begin with fake nails and as far as fake hair, do you want to look like you have the same hairdresser as a Barbie doll?
Catty, bitchy, jealous girls and cougars. I have no time for petty girls/women who lack self confidence. Please do not take out your insecurities on women who clearly have it going on. Not our fault you don’t feel good about yourself. Get a hobby. That’s a good place to start.
Pilling sweaters. I hate those little nerd balls. They never go away, do they?

So there you have it. Things that ruffle my feathers almost as much as wearing leggings as pants (I’m sure I’ll think of more). I realize I have just made myself incredibly vulnerable to people coming up to me and blowing their noses while wearing True Religions, but feels good to vent. Send in some of your very least favorite things.

WhyDid Wisdom: When NOT to Fake the Funk

By Kirsten|December 17th, 2008|WhyDid Wisdom|

A psychic from one of the best Online Fortune Teller Sites once told me that I was “okay with the little white lie.” While this might be true, there are a few things in life that you just shouldn’t fib about.

Herve Leger Bandage Dresses- Bebe, Express, and Alice and Olivia have all tried to replicate this trendy dress. None of them have been able to really recreate the drama of the real thing. A real Herve Leger dress hugs you in all of the right places and sucks you in in the others (think of Spanx gone sexy). There are no stray threads, the fabric is heavy and thick, and it only comes in certain styles each season. A black Herve bandage dress is worth the investment. It can be worn for a multitude of occasions. Skip the imitations though. You’ll only end up looking cheap, not chic.

Lips-Ugh! Have you ever seen women walking around with “duck lips”? So gross. There is nothing sexy about looking like Donald Duck’s sister. I understand that voluptuous lips like Angelina Jolie’s and Scarlett Johannsen’s are sexy, but we weren’t all created equal. Learn to love your lips and invest in a good lip plumper (Lip Infusion is my favorite). Do you really want to walk around looking like Heidi from The Hills? Didn’t think so.

Chicago, What Are YOU Wearing?

By Kirsten|December 16th, 2008|Why Did You Wear That?|

Every time, I don’t think it can get any worse. It does. Chicago has taken it to a whole new level. Get your barf bags ready… we’re all set for take off.

I’m guessing that this must have been some sort of Maxim “event.” So, why do I get the inkling that Maxim would not be happy to have their name tied to these people walking the “red carpet?”

Do you think that these girls thought that they were supposed to dress up like the hotties in Maxim? Is that why they are wearing these ridiculous outfits? Is the girl on the left wearing her outfit backwards a la Kriss Kross? I mean, I can understand why. She wants her belly ring to show, duh!! (more…)

Why Did You Wear That: Somethin’ for the fellas.

By Kirsten|December 2nd, 2008|Somethin for the fellas, Why Did You Wear That?|

There is basically only one thing that enrages me more than leggings worn as pants. TRUE RELIGION JEANS on a man. Here is a story regarding these heinous pants:

Once upon a time, a young Princess met a very handsome, charming, smart, funny man. He was basically everything she had ever hoped for in her Prince. However, things were almost over before they even began.

She was so excited for her first “real date” with this lad. She was sure this was it. But lo and behold, he showed up wearing…. dun dun dunnnn… True Religion Jeans! The princess was devastated. Now what? Her Prince would NEVER wear True Religions!!

Luckily, her Prince Charming was smart enough to realize when it comes to fashion, the Princess knows best. Therefore, he allowed her into his closet and she banished all of his True Religion jeans from the kingdom. Then they lived happily ever after.

THE END.

**This is a true story. Names have been changed (okay, omitted) to protect those involved.

See, I’m not the only one. Do yourself a favor, guys. Just get rid of your True Religions now. You don’t want to scare away your dates. I know, they were $300. Consider this your punishment for buying them in the first place. Look on the bright side, at least you’ll get a second date.
