Thumbnail image for Before and After and After: Bathroom Makeover

When we first moved in, our bathroom was a windowless closet of florescent lighting and stark white walls. It was gross. We couldn’t afford to spend a lot to remodel, but my darling friend Cody stepped up with a master plan to completely transform the room for under $200.
With that budget, we couldn’t afford to [...]

I can honestly say that this product has changed my life. Lame, I know, but it’s as important to me now as deodorant or toothpaste. What can I say? My clothes are always wrinkled. I’m wrinkly. And this shit actually does work!
Since they don’t sell it at my local Duane Reade (why, God, [...]

Just in time for Valentine’s Day… because nothing says “I love you” like triple bypass surgery. Okay, they’re not that bad for you, especially if you follow the original recipe and use carob chips and turbinadot. But really? Carob is not chocolate. In fact, I don’t recommend using any kind of chocolate you wouldn’t willingly [...]

I always resist wearing a hat, even when it’s 12 degrees out. Yes, it’s because I’m vain and hats mess up my hair. But maybe, just maybe, if I had one of these cute little hats I would be more inclined?

I was recently inspired by the folks at Design Sponge to makeover my filing cabinet. Since I also use it as the end table in my living room, I wanted it be as attractive as it is functional. My original intent was simply to spray paint the whole cabinet white and change the hardware. Easy, [...]

Le Ski by Burkeys featuring Villain
Skiing and snowboarding are such expensive sports. Apart from the cost of getting to the mountain and the lift ticket, there’s all that gear! You can spend a fortune on boots, bindings, and boards. Since I’m still learning how to snowboard, I refuse to spend a lot on new equipment. [...]

Editor’s Page: Three-Quarter Length Sleeves

Thumbnail image for Editor’s Page: Three-Quarter Length Sleeves

I own an inordinate number of shirts and jackets with three-quarter length sleeves. I think they might make me look taller, Elle Magazine told me so. I’m barely 5’2” so I tend to be gullible about such things. Did you know that most people want their clothes to make them appear, taller, slimmer and younger? [...]

Part Two: Style and Substance
In my first post, I discussed the importance of finding a good tattoo artist before you get your first tattoo. That’s obvious. But on to a more difficult discussion—what are you getting? You probably already have a very specific idea of what you want, but it might be a good idea [...]
