Always check your sources, you guys, especially when it comes to the endless studies splashed across blogs, magazines, newspapers, and mentioned on the evening news. Check who sponsored the study, and then you’ll have the whole picture and can decide if you buy it or if you need a grain of salt … or a [...]

Business Casual Superstar #457: Speak Out Against JCPenney and Forever21′s Effort to Profit Off the Perceived Intellectual Deficiency of Girls
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, Islam/Culture, Op-eds, tagged Pretty News on September 16, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
You’re probably heard by now of the stupid t-shirts being sold by stores like JCPenney and Forever21, like “I’m too pretty to do homework,” and “allergic to algebra.” As a girl who always did her homework on time and to the best of her ability (sometimes going embarrassingly overboard) and a girl whose love of [...]
If you use personal shopper services, like Anthroholics, beware …
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Pretty News on September 16, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I’m not saying all personal shopping services are rip-offs. I promise I’m not. I know some image consultants and personal shoppers who work very hard trying to get to know their clients, selecting great pieces for them, and even collecting and bringing all the pieces to the client because it’s much easier for the individual [...]
Oh, Lola! By Marc Jacobs: This ad makes me wildly uncomfortable
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Pretty News on August 16, 2011 | 10 Comments »
Um, ew. Just … ew. Who signed off on this? Was that person not aware of how truly icky this picture was? How truly icky this entire concept was?! (Forgive the horrible pic quality – I snapped it with my iPod.) And yes, I realize that Dakota Fanning is, like, sixteen or seventeen or something, [...]

You read that right: Today is the Fendi menswear launch at Barneys New York. Fendi first opened its doors in 1925 and continues to be a fashion power house to this day. If you’re in NYC, head on over to Madison Avenue, second floor, to check out the goods. If you’re not in NYC, everything [...]
Pretty News – Ew, Goopy Gwyneth Paltrow needs to cram it, too
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Pretty News on June 14, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Gwyneth Paltrow hates peasants. We’re uneducated because we don’t learn the lessons of life from Tibetan monks, we’re poor because we buy our nail clippers at Walmart instead of having them flown in on a private jet from Solingen, Germany, we use drugstore shampoo instead of the placentas of Slow Lorises, we’re unhealthy and have [...]
Pretty News – Dear Sarah Jessica Parker: Cram it
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, Legalese, tagged Pretty News on June 14, 2011 | 2 Comments »
So Sarah Jessica Parker was recently summoned for jury duty and was heard (loudly) complaining about it. I realize everyone complains about jury duty. That doesn’t make it okay. That doesn’t make it any less dumb. Do your civic duty, do it honestly, do it well, and go home. It’s not that hard. The funny [...]
Business Casual Superstar #371: Want the Same Nail Polish Given to Academy Award Attendees?
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, tagged Makeup and Beauty, Pretty News on March 2, 2011 | 2 Comments »
Oscar Swag Bags, in my opinion, are completely effing ridiculous. But they’re also full of some really cool stuff. This year, for example, Natalie Portman, who won Best Actress for her performance in “Black Swan,” walked away with a giant African Safari vacation with a paid 5-star chef, a Motorola Xoom, and … this nail [...]
Oh, Shut the Hell Up, Gwyneth Paltrow
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, Op-eds, tagged Pretty News on February 18, 2011 | 7 Comments »
Obscenely rich women are, generally speaking, ridiculous. It’s like the more money you get, the bigger a waste of skin you become. Gwyneth Paltrow is showing us just how ridiculous she can be, when she tells us in her newest Goopy Goop Goop newsletter that we should buy our children designer clothes that are not [...]
Would You Brush Your Teeth with a Twig? Uh, Heck, Yes.
Posted in Business Casual Superstar, Islam/Culture, tagged Pretty News on February 15, 2011 | 5 Comments »
Would You Brush Your Teeth with a Twig?. That’s what Gizmodo wants to know, and personally, my answer is a resounding YES. The “twig” being talked about is the miswaak, which Muslims have been using as a toothbrush for almost two thousand years, roughly, if not longer. It’s considered Sunnah, roughly translated as ‘the way [...]
