The three pieces of fashion recycling

·

Single-use fashion is a ridiculous aspiration put on a pedestal by celebrities with bottomless bank accounts. I’m a college student with financial limits who likes what she invests in and enjoys wearing it a hundred times.

·

When I grow up, I’ll make sure my children fear bearded men. Not that there’s anything wrong with bearded men. In fact, I’d like to be one someday. It’s just that I, like every other responsible parent, will want my kids to be on the constant lookout for strangers who might do them harm.

Party foul

·

Earlier this month, Time magazine reported on the desire for a momentary flash of fame an attention in a piece titled “Balloon Boy’s Lesson: The New American Dream.” In October, Balloon Boy’s parents surprised us by showing the extent to which one couple would go to find themselves in the national spotlight. And now, the Salahi couple has shown us that lack of discretion and good taste is not unique to a family with a large, silver balloon.
