This week’s pin-up tip comes from SuicideGirls co-founder Missy.
TRY: Mac Ruby Woo lipstick.
WHY: It makes everyone feel more glamorous and look “put together.” The blush red shade is dramatic enough to make a statement, but has a subtle matte finish, which doesn’t come off on your teeth.

My younger brother used to play softball and during the games, I would wander about the nearby train tracks or bum around in the small playground. (My main concern that summer was whether Agent Mulder could really be dead — he wasn’t, though in retrospect it might have been wiser for my then favorite show to go out while it was still ahead.) One day, there was another young kid on the swing set and he had this small, red, egg-shaped video game on a key chain. It had a funny name and my fifth grade eyes glazed over as he explained how the thing worked. “These are gonna be the next Beanie Babies,” he promised. I think I probably told him that was stupid. Shows what I know.
“Don’t wear white after Labor Day.” Not only is it the stupidest rule of fashion ever written, it’s also the most outdated. Forget what your Grandmother told you. White is hot all year round and it’s also the easiest way to make a vintage wardrobe feel a little more modern. Add some crisp white and it always brings a sleek edge to whatever you are wearing.
Hours spent researching WHY this ever became a rule of fashion in the first place kept leading me back to one main reason: season. White deflects sunlight, therefore white is not warm enough to wear in the winter. I call B.S. To wear white in the winter simply wear heavier fabrics or knits, solid shoes or boots rather than strappy sandals, or pair lightweight garments with heavier garments like cardigans or woolly tights. Stick with heavy cotton, wool, cashmere, down, leather and most other natural fibers for the best protection from the elements.
I am, of course, biased towards vintage clothing so I pulled together a few examples of extra cute white vintage garments for you to check out.
Jennifer Love Hewitt may have starred in my favorite workout video as a child, but she is no friend of mine. I’m going to blame our culture’s frenzy with accessorizing our vaginas on her. Honey, we didn’t need to know that Jamie Kennedy loves your lady bits bedazzled.
We all know that having a vagina gives you power. Not only can it get you penis (or vagina), it can now get you that raise. High five, vagina! But we’re women. Heavens forbid we show up to the same shindig in the same outfit, let alone the same hoohah.
I’m sure we can all agree that the best part of going back to school is shopping for your Back To School Clothing. Just one little completed outfit can offer the promise of new beginnings, new memories, new friends, new loves….
My years of “going back to school” are behind me, but I still like to live vicariously through window shopping the internet a little bit every day. Keeping in mind the requirements of school clothing (ie: comfort, style, personality, individuality, and a dash of modesty), I scoured my favorite website for vintage clothing, Etsy.com, and put together a few Back to School outfits in a few different looks.
