When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother, “What will I be? Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? What comes next? Oh right, will I be rich?” Which is almost pretty depending on where you shop. And the pretty question infects from conception, passing blood and breath into cells.

bendavis asked: It's totally doable.

I say run. Do it. That's all you have to do.

You'll thank yourself. Download a 10 week half-marathon guide and stick to it. Don't cheat yourself and you'll be able to knock it out.

Good luck!

dropping a bombshell.
Dear Victoria’s Secret, I’m writing to you today to request that you be consistent in your marketing and the consequent message you are sending your consumers. I can’t speak for all of them but I, for one, am lost. For the past few months my email inbox has been flooded with Photoshop-laden advertisements for your new “Bombshell” push-up bra, which is guaranteed...

the photoshop law. →
Ralph Lauren’s attempt at “subtle photoshop” - fail. kick-ass blog about kick-ass stuff by some kick-ass ladies. There are interesting arguments on both sides of the “PhotoShop War”, but I must honestly say that the fashion industry’s argument against the new law is… less than compelling. “I think they should back right off.
