The List: Tips and Quips About Life and Fashion

 

If you didn’t know, now you know.

 

  1. Leggings and a t-shirt DO NOT constitute an outfit. Don’t get me wrong—there is a time and a place for these clothes. Times like when you’re sick…and places like in your bedroom. “But it’s so comfortable!” Maybe for your ass, but my eyes are uncomfortable just looking at you. Dress how you want to be perceived, because like it or not, people judge.
  2. POST YOUR REAL INTERESTS ON PINTREST. Okay, if you don’t know what Pintrest is, it is a relativity new form of social networking where the account holder can design his or her own virtual bulletin boards. Sound cool? It could be—except board I see has pictures of anexoric models entitled “thinspiration,” hundreds of wedding gowns under “my dream wedding,” or fancy food photos entitled “yumyum in my tumtum.” YOU ARE NOT ALL MARTHA Stewart—and if you were you would have a board about how to spice up the décor in a jail cell. Point is, post about interests that show how unique you are.
  3. If the money in clothes jar is dangerously low, focus on buying staples. I’m not talking about office supplies, I’m talking key wardrobe pieces. A great denim jacket might cost more than two or three blouses, but that one piece can transform an evening dress into day wear or add some edge to a boring t-shirt.
