Anonymous Retail Rant: Don’t Leave Your (Used) Feminine Items in the Dressing Rooms, and Other Rules to Shop By



Rule No. 3: Leave your “face” at home. I get that wearing loads of bronzer, blush, and lipstick is a vital part of your every day life. You never know who you’re going to run into, right? I mean, you’re probably the next Chanel muse– if ONLY Karl were wandering around your neighborhood right now. But if there were ever a time to leave your face paint at home, it’s a shopping trip. Have you ever heard of a ‘damages bin?’ It’s where all the soiled (read: makeup stained) garments go to crumple up and die, never to be seen on the sales floor again. So when you face-stain that $350 ivory colored party dress you were never actually intending to purchase, you’re technically taking it away from that poor little pre-teen who was dying to wear that same size at her Bat Mitzvah– subsequently denying her the right to enter womanhood in style. So not Kosher. Take a tip from the dragalicious Aubrey O’Day, who (along with her rainbow puppies) has popped into our shopping spot foundation-free on several occasions. Just look at her now– she’s on yet another reality show! A shining example of inner beauty showing through. Now that’s an American success story if ever there was.
