Never buy clothing made of Angora wool!

I would like to persuade you all to stop buying clothing items made of Angora wool. I knew Angora wool came from a rabbit, and I always assumed they got it by simply shaving the rabbit or cutting it off in a humane way. Never have I been so wrong. 90% of the world production of Angora wool comes from China, where they obtain it by plucking the hair aggressively out of the rabbit. The rabbit is tied up to a table, screaming, fully aware of what is happening and in a great deal of pain. Afterwards they place them back into their cage (while the animal is in shock). The rabbits go through this horrifying proces every three months for a period of approximately two to five years. If this doesn't convince you, I sincerely suggest you watch the following clip:

Don't support this cruelty. 

Stop buying items made of Angora wool.

A very Kolorful Kesha

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I honestly think Kesha (I refuse to put that stupid $-symbol in her name) looks amazing sporting rainbow colored hair. I know, I'm shocked too. Nobody looks good with rainbow hair, yet somehow... She does? What world are we living in? What the hell is going on?

Not only that, but she even managed to look more decent than ever before. I'm not saying it's a great outfit, but hey, it's better than usual. She normally looks like she just walked out of bed after a drunk night out. A very, very drunk night out. The kind of night after which you don't even bother to take your make-up of, so you kinda look like a crazy raccoon when you wake up. But to get back to my point: I really like her face and hair. Maybe she has a new make-up artist. Whatever it is, kudos to her! In my humble opinion, she looks fierce. 

Yeah, it's ok if you don't agree with me.

I get it.

All eyes on Jennifer Lawrence

So, Jennifer is looking amazing these days. Every day I see new pictures of her at some other premiere of the Hunger Games: Catching Fire and she certainly doesn't disappoint. I don't even mind the pixie cut on her. (And that's a huge compliment because I rarely find it attractive or pretty. It's almost never an improvement)

Top to Bottom: Paris, Christian Dior - Rome, Christian Dior - LA, Dior Haute Couture

Besides her flawless appearances, I'm also digging photographs taken of her. I particularly love the ones featured in Harper's Bazaar and her Dior ads.

Bringing sexy back: Vikki Dougan

I just recently discovered Vikki Dougan and I absolutely adore these photographs of her. She was the ultimate trendsetter back in the 50's when she introduced the sexy low-cut backless dress. (Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating, but it was definetly her trademark. Wearing such dresses practically made her famous) She looks amazing. We should totally bring this trend back. Like, right now. 

How to make Leighton Meester look like a drag

I know it's old (news), but back in 2009 Leighton Meester -"Blair Waldorf" in the hitseries Gossip Girl- brought out "Somebody to Love ft. Robin Thicke", a midtempo electropop song. The song wasn't that bad, but the video clip was a disaster. Whoever choose Leighton's styling must have been blind, because the always flawless tv-star looked awful. She had been transformed into some sort of mix between a transvestite and a hooker. (I sincerely hope she wasn't making her own fashion/styling choices)

Whoever did her make-up is obviously a huge fan of lots and lots of glittery eye-shadow. She's practically drowning in eye-glitter and blush. The outfits in the clip are okay, but the one she's wearing in de limo should be burned. And then burned again. It's the most unflattering jumpsuit I've ever seen. Not to mention the choice of hat and shoes to go along with it. And the scary, long fake nails. I think both looks are a perfect of example of overdoing something. Big hair, big make-up, big accessories. Don't. Just don't.

3 years later and my eyes still hurt.
Seriously.
It burns.

Rule #2: it's ok to take the lead

One thing I've learned is that it's surprisingly fun and pleasant to take intitative when it comes to asking a guy out.  Sure, you can do it the old fashioned way and just sit around and wait 'till a guy comes up to you, or you could get off your lazy ass and do it yourself. I'm not saying you should always make the first move, but taking a bold step every once and a while can't hurt.

Surprise yourself by doing something you'd normally never do. You've got nothing to lose.
It's easy. Keep it short, light and clear. Something like "dude, you're great at GTA5, we should play it together some time" (depending on his hobby/interests and the situation of course, but you get the point. Just don't fake a mutual interest). If you get blown off: so be it, it's really not a big deal. And if it's a yes: great! Good for you!

Oh, don't stalk the guy after you asked him. You gave him a chance, if he wants to, he'll take it. It's fine either way. But it's up to him now. The most important thing is to expect nothing. Just go with the flow. You're independent. Stop caring so much before anything has even happened (Most girls go crazy over nothing, I often don't even understand the problem. I mean, you barely know the guy, how can you be so obsessive and dramatic already? On second thought, scratch the 'already': being obsessive and dramatic is never a good thing, but I'll get back to that later).
