Mmm, I don't like it on her. I agree that it looks cheap on her... and she most definitely didn't buy it herself. The whole album cover isn't that attractive in my opinion, actually. I just think something that high-fashion looks wicked trashy on her.

I frequently buy t-shirts too large on purpose because I don't want them to be fitted, but that's from Target, F21, etc....

If they jack up the prices and limit it to a few stores like H&M does, I'll be so pissed. It's Target, for frick's sake.

"7 For All Mankind is launching their own shoe range for Spring, retailing between $150 to $350, which may seem too close to their denim price range, but is probably a bit less than most 7 customers usually spend on their shoes."
Umm in my experience the 7 customer is a suburban teenager who is obsessed with Abercrombie, Coach, and labels. Their fit is horribly unflattering, I actually own a pair that I got back in my 8th grade label whoring days. They might spend $150 on shoes, but only if they were Coach logo print boots.

By the last "they" I meant 7 customers.

Like no one wears watches anymore, at least that I see. It's all about the cell phones. I like them on men though, and I think the right one can look great for a women too.

Ew. I'm sorry but Jennifer Aniston is not relevant, ESPECIALLY to a supposed fashion magazine like Vogue. I wish Vogue was able to sacrifice some of it's housewife market and stop using celebrities on the covers. And also, as mentioned, stop mentioning socialites. Invite back creative styling, drop some of the pretension, and be a bit more like Paris Vogue or at least like Elle. "What Angeline did was very uncool" should never, ever be on Vogue. Neither should "Holiday Romance", at least unironically. This is a mess.

I've always thought about wearing an eyepatch for solely fashion reasons... but maybe I'm just a little weird.

I like and wear faux and vintage fur but would NEVER buy a new fur coat, even if I had the means. I like the way fur looks, I can't help that, but I'm a vegetarian and I don't like killing animals. So yes, I'm an "animal lover" and I wear faux and vintage, and I know I'm not alone!
Entry: Would You Wear High-Waisted Undies?

I agree with 12. You need hips to wear high-waisted undies/bathing suits well. Like, 50's hourglass would look amazing. I bought a bikini with high waisted bottoms from VS last summer, and it didn't look as amazing as I wanted because I have narrow hips and a straight waist. I have what I call "double hips", like a more exaggerated version of what that model has (since I'm not as skinny as her). But the point is, this look is much better on people with a larger hip to waist ratio.

I adore Lara Stone and might actually bring myself to buy that issue, but you have got to be on crack to think Lara's hips and breasts are anywhere near "normal". She is curvier than many models, though, so you've got to give her credit for that.

This is funny because I've grown up in a upper-middle class town where braces are basically a "necessity" for every kid. I did not really need braces--I just had a few crooked bottom teeth and a slight overbite--but I insisted on getting them anyway (this was middle school, after all) and I didn't find them excessively painful. And while I may adore Lara Stone's teeth, in real life excessively crooked teeth tend to gross me out; I just can't help it. And when small kids have braces, it's because they have serious dental issues; you can't get them cosmetically until age 10 or so because you don't have your permanent teeth. "Unethical"? Haha no... maybe a bit painful and expensive and perfectionist but they aren't really that bad.
One positive thing is, that while the stigma of bad teeth may have gotten worse, the stigma of having braces is practically gone. I've never heard anyone called "metal mouth" or "train tracks."
Yes, it is funny how Keira always has a closed-mouth smile....

Okay, literally every shoe on Go Jane is a blatant designer knockoff. You could make a year's worth of Adventures In Copyright of that site if you so desired.
Entry: Are You Haggling?

I'm just flashing back to the moment my friend and I were haggling for the cost of something in an overpriced thrift store (!) and some random lady came up to us and was like, "How can you do that? That's so rude!" And this was a lady who looked like she had just crawled out of a dump....
I think it makes people uncomfortable because it's not very "American"; if you go to Mexico or Egypt or just about anywhere else you're gonna find that haggling is the norm or at least more common, but for some reason people here are afraid of it. I do find it rude sometimes, though. It depends on the circumstance.

Ahaha that list is horrible. Blake Lively = pretty but no style and while I like Anne Hathaway's (and the other girls') looks, THEY HAVE STYLISTS! THEREFORE THEY ARE AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED. There. While I'm a fan of MIA's style I don't think she's very "Vogue"; they're totally trying too hard with this list. Vogue is really getting pathetic... I'm still subscribed though.

Good for her for bringing it up--it's true, Vogue needs some renovations and the removal of those BORING socialite articles. Something about it just seems so stale....

Actually most kids still use backpacks. If they actually want to be able to carry all their books without ripping their arms off.
