Coldwater Creek is one of those size 00-26  places for slightly older women who managed their money wisely in their youth. In other words, it’s a tad expensive, a tad conservative, but has enough of a sense of luxury to turn out a few pieces that are a little bit trendy and always that one [...]

Granted, Amazon is the meta of where you can get anything - but it’s good to know it’s out there.

There’s a person over on AskMetafilter who has chosen the weight loss path, but on the road she’s still getting some heckling. She’s asking for some help coming up with quick comebacks. If you’re sassy, you might be able to give her some help.

Let me clarify my stance on this: head to toe pleather? TEH EBIL. Belted pleather? OK. Which means that Fashion Overdose’s pleather belt is in my OK category. Basic, black, and functional, it’s designed to accessorise some of the hotness that FO offers - and you might sneak it in on a couple other wardrobe [...]
