how to de-flatter your wardrobe

Being in a sorority has expanded my wardrobe. I now own endless amounts of t-shirts that make me look like a box. Sorry girls, ordering v-necks do not make unisex shirts any more flattering. To all the sorority girls out there, I have two suggestions...and by suggestions I mean demands:

1) do not get shirts that are so long they could be worn as dresses. we are WOMEN. wear clothes for womanly bodies. shirts that go past the hip just make us look big; they bunch up, placing all of the extra fabric on our stomachs and hips. NOT ATTRACTIVE.

2) opt for the girl t-shirt instead of the unisex t-shirt. when we wear letters we represent our sorority so we should look good. how the hell are we supposed to look good in a tee made for a guy?! these unisex shirts hide all of our curves and just make us look large.

3) man tanks. really? stop. the name alone screams, "DON'T WEAR ME I WILL MAKE YOU LOOK 20 LBS LARGER THAN YOU REALLY ARE!" i don't care if man tanks are in style. they look like shit on girls (well except for those with straight bodies), but for the majority they are the opposite of attractive.

I've wanted a pair of Jeffrey Campbell heels since August 2010. The problem: which pair to get. They're all so perfect.

fear me not? nope, definitely fear me.

First, there were combat boots. What's next on the badass agenda for female fashion? Bones, gold, and rhinestones.

Don't worry, the birds and reptiles won't harm you. They'll just make you look really freakin' awesome.

spring, where are you?

Although the weather may suck, it's not too soon to start preparing for sunny skies and colorful flowers. If nature around you looks pretty and happy, you should look that way too with these uber cute white dresses. Warning: do not roll around in lush fields while wearing any of the following garments.

Add a long pendant necklace and a pair of warm-colored, chunky heels and the sun will be jealous of how hot you are.

flood pants: male edition

Why do guys all of a sudden like to cuff their pants? Who cares--it's cute.

In all honesty, the colored chinos are my favorite when it comes to cuffing. The cuff already makes a statement, so just go all out with, say, some robin's egg blue bottoms. Face it: fashion is flamboyant.
