Is it just me or is this a fashion TRAVESTY?

July 1, 2008 by Ashley St. Standard · Leave a Comment 

I got an email with this pic on the front of it this morning and all I have to say is I think we finally found something worse than crocs (then again, maybe they’ll be all the rage in california and all the stars will wear them and I will have about 7 pairs. thats a BIG maybe . . . ) Buy yours here.

Toilet Paper Wedding Dress is Worth $1000

June 20, 2008 by Ashley St. Standard · 3 Comments 

Yes, that is a toilet paper wedding dress! If you are planning a wedding on a budget, one option to save money may be to make your gown out of toilet paper. Not possible, you scoff? Well check out these dresses created by several women in a contest sponsored by Ripley’s Believe it or Not, Charmin and Chic for Cheap Weddings. The winning dress took two weeks to craft and it scored the designer $1000 bucks! Thats enough to find a great designer gown at a sample sale. Not too shabby! (One note: make sure it doesn’t rain on your wedding day if you plan to sport toilet tissue couture, your dress would literally melt!) See more pics after the break! Read more

Jamie Lynn’s Post Baby Makeover

June 19, 2008 by Ashley St. Standard · Leave a Comment 

Okay, this was probably kind of mean, but when I found this website and saw how easy it was to go from plain jane to streetwalker with just a few clicks of the mouse, I couldn’t resist. Besides, now that old Jamie Lynn has popped out her little one, she may get some of the post-partum depression and hit a car with an umbrella and want to cut her hair. So I made some sample hair styles and makeup styles for her to use as a jumping off point.

Making your own streetwalker style is easy; you upload a photo and adjust some place holders and off you go to hookerville. Although the site is supposed to be used for makeovers, it is way more fun to make people you know look bad. ** Warning Christian:, I am looking for a pic of you that I can add hair and makeup to!*** Click here to start the humiliation.

Pretty Panties = Pretty Dangerous

Okay. All I have to say is don’t try to squeeze your fatness into a thong thats too small and you will prevent all eye injuries! Also, I’m sure you did not launder it according to the care instructions (who really does) and all those fancy jeweled panties say hand wash and air dry! (Oh, and did we really need to see a close up of her panties!?)

Major T-Shirt Launch Tonight in Dallas!

June 19, 2008 by Ashley St. Standard · Leave a Comment 

Hey kids in the Dallas area guess where I’m going tonight!? Y2kers.com has been exclusively invited to attend a  launch party for an incredible Dallas-based t-shirt line’s Pre-Fall collection. It’s happening tonight at Uptown Couture in Dallas. The t-shirt brand, Paper or Plastik, is known for unique artist-designed tees that are hand distressed for softness and authenticity! (Best of all they sell for under 50 bucks!) They have styles for men and women and are definitely not your average tees.

As someone who hates to show up at parties in the same outfit as someone else, I can strut in a Paper or Plastik tee without worry because all the shirts are hand-finished ones-of-a-kind! Pretty fabulous and as a clothing-obsessed Dallasite, I love supporting local fashion. You can get your shirt here (or buy one at the party tonight for an awesome gift bag with purchase) and you can check y2kers.com-exclusive photos from the party right here tomorrow morning! 

Prom Etiquette from Jamaica

I stumbled across this little gem of an advice article and couldn’t help but post the link and of course the infamous prom photo at left.

Here is an excerpt to wet your palate:
“If dateless, try not to sulk all night. Whether it was by choice or forced upon you, you deserve to enjoy your night nonetheless. Brooding all night will have you remembered as the bitter, angry, “badmind” girl without a date.

Oh and for the full story on our runway  sidewalk model at left, click here.

Enjoy!

Take off your shoes!

Did you know your soles are covered in bacteria from poop! thats right you should always take off your sneaks or flats or stilettos upon entering a home to prevent spreading the nasties of the day (think bathroom floors, dog/people pee, chewing gum etc) from contaminating your floors. Carpet is a significant harborer of the grossness. So keep your toes painted and get some odor eaters because im not letting shoes in my door anymore! :) (on a side note, dogs paws also harbor bacteria, but less than shoes because they’re smaller so I think that stilettos are better because there is less surface area in contact with the ground, Super! Yet another excuse to buy Louboutins! Hooray!)

CURE FOR CROCS: Havaianas

June 9, 2008 by Ashley St. Standard · Leave a Comment 

We have all seen and been appalled by grown people stepping out of the garden and into public in the worst shoe, ever, the croc. I have a cure for the summertime croc blues and it’s a deal too! 

Get excited. I have inside info that Havaiana’s flip flops, the softest thongs you’ll ever find are at Neiman Marcus Last Call (the outlet for Neiman Marcus)! My sources tell me they are getting current styles AND they are cheaper than you find at regular stores! They range in price from $12 for basic flats (normally $17) to $42 for fashion wedges (normally $60+) You can find a Last Call in your home state by clicking here.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not buy /wear crocs anymore (unless of course you are three-years-old and have colors to match all your garanimals!)
