I don't see anything wrong with doing this at all.
I mean, what is the return policy there for? If you buy something and change your mind about it, or it doesn't fit or is defective, then go get your money back.
That said, I think it's a little bit tacky to buy a nice outfit for a special occasion, keep the tags on it, and then return it. I don't condemn other people who do it, because maybe they have a good reason (i.e. important job interview, can't afford a new outfit) but I have never dont it before and wouldn't want to.

haha! I love that dress, but it looks really hard to pull off. It looks great on Posh, because she's a twig, it looks great on the mannequin, but I think very few people could look good in this dress.

You guys take too many days off. Not to sound whiny, but the best blogs always update really frequently and have lots of new posts every day. Here, I log in every few days and there's only a couple new posts. Maybe you guys should hire more staff? Or allow readers to post new topics?

Well, I'm from California as well and I hear plenty of people saying "Cali." Some people say it and some dont, its not as if only non-californians say it.

Thats pretty cool! I wish all airlines passed out free makeup during the flight. I don't really think it's sexist- how can free mascara be bad?

I'm surprised mine was the only hanukkah one, I would have thought there would be more.

I'm quite ambivalent about Peaches Geldof. I can't seem to make up my mind about her; I vacillate between thinking she's awesome and thinking she's horrendous.

girls with belly-button rings = trying to look like the hot britney spears of 7 years ago
girls who wear 3 different logos at once = style-challenged and insecure
girls who wear coach or dooney and burke bags = trying so desperately to wear something "designer" it's pathetic
girls who wear high heels to class = slutty attention whores

I forgot Ed Hardy!
ANYONE who wears Ed Hardy and thinks it's still cool, I privately laugh at. I mean, it's so passe, like uggs or belly button rings; it was cool like 5 years ago.

Even though I lived in Paris for 8 months last year (studying abroad), and do not intend on going back anytime soon, I can still appreciate the lightheartedness and frivolity of this commercial. Paris is not the dream fairy-tale city most people make out it to be, but this commercial sure makes it look that way!
But Maryna does NOT look like your typical French girl in this ad because:
-French girls do not smile and skip down the street. They scowl and smoke cigarettes.
-They do not gorge on pastries. How do you think they stay so skinny?
-A girl who can afford gowns from Dior would NOT be riding a bike around the city. She would have a chauffer or drive her own car. (Or at least a scooter.)

That makes me dislike Versace. I think they can expand their brand to new markets while still maintaining that sophisticated and exculsive feeling to their products. As long as they're making a profit and creating brand recognition, it seems cruel to intentionally deny "young girls the bag of their dreams."

Well, in response to comment 5, I'm not crazy about this either but Blake Lively has had her fair share of nepotism. Her parents, her brothers and sisters, her whole family is immersed in the entertainment industry.

I cant believe she wore Jason Wu AGAIN!!!
Not only am I surprised, I'm disappointed. He had his moment in the sun. Now let a new designer share some of the spotlight.

i never get my hair cut in a salon unless I'm getting something dramatic. Right now I have bangs and they grow like crazy! I have to trim them myself every 2 weeks or so. Sometimes they DO come out uneven, but then I just pin them back with bobby pins for a few days to let them grow out a bit and try again!
Entry: Would You Wear A Political Statement?

I see where you’re coming from and I think that in certain circumstances, that can be true. But I think that most (if not all) political statements are going to offend SOMEBODY. For example, wearing a Nazi Swastika would offend most people. Wearing an anti-Bush shirt would offend some people. I think if you choose to wear something controversial knowing people are going to be offended by it, you’d better be prepared to defend your position and discuss it.
