Weezer Wuvs The Wuggie

Published by Jennifer under Beauty Buzz, Entertainment

Weezer Wuggie

The band members of Weezer won’t let the summer warmth keep them from their snuggies. In fact, they’re releasing their very own Weezer-branded Snuggie – The Wuggie. Frontman Rivers Cuomo explains the concept to Rolling Stone: “A Wuggie is basically exactly like a Snuggie, except it says Weezer on it.” You know you want one.

Click on the photo to think about food

From College Candy:

Whatcha thinking about?  If you’re anything like me, you’re thinking about food.  I literally ate about five minutes ago, but that doesn’t stop images of delicious dinner selections from flashing through my brain.  I blame it on my incessant need to plan and organize (but let’s be honest – I just like food).

Cocktail of the Week: The Skinnygirl Margarita

Published by Jennifer under Entertainment

Bethenny skinnygirl

It’s that time again… Cocktail of the Week. Because let’s be honest, the only thing you really care about on Friday afternoon is how quickly you can get some alcohol pumping through that overworked body. We’re here to help.

This week we’re throwing back Skinnygirl Margaritas Real Housewives of New York-style. Of course the choice has little to do with calorie consciousness and everything to do with our Bethenny obsession. She’s one of our favorites on the show (love you Jill!) and so we drink in her honor.

And we have all the more need to drink now that its summer. Warm weather makes us want to celebrate, but more importantly now that the Real Housewives season is over, the reunion part one has aired, the reunion part two has come and gone and we just watched the unaired footage, we need to drink our withdrawal away.

Read on for the recipe.

Female Neurons: Stayin’ Alive, Stayin’ Alive

Published by Jennifer under Off the Press

Female vs Male Brains

A new study reveals that female brains can survive on a lot less than male brains. The research found that, in the face of nutrient deprivation, male neurons more readily withered up and died, while female neurons better conserved energy to stay alive. That’s a check in the win column for womankind.

For the actual science explanation, visit Scientific Blogging. For mindless gloating, stick around here.

What Lady Gaga and Brittany Snow Have In Common

Published by Jennifer under Entertainment

Lady Gaga Paparazzi art

Lady Gaga’s new video has leaked on the web and you can watch it on Allie is Wired. However, what really stood out to us was this promo art. It felt slightly familiar. It felt like something we had just seen. It felt like Gossip Girl?

Maybe it’s just us, but looking at Lady Gaga mugging for the cameras made us instantly think of the poster for the Gossip Girl spin-off Valley Girls. Or should we say the failed Gossip Girl spin-off Valley Girls.

Valley girls poster

For Lady Gaga’s sake, let’s hope her video goes over a lot better than Brittany Snow’s latest effort.

10 Prom Dresses Made of Anything But Fabric

Published by Jennifer under Beauty Buzz

Condom Dress

We’re right in the middle of prom season, which means plenty of corsages, limos and unfulfilled expectations. It also means a lot of dress shopping. Most people will go the average route of pretty material and nice style… I know I did.

But we love it when people go a little out of the box. In fact, about a month ago we dedicated an entire post to prom dresses made out of condoms. However, those with (safe) sex on the brain aren’t the only ones ditching the fabric for a unique prom get-up.

So we’re revisiting the prom dress topic… thankfully without having to actually revisit prom (fun only once). These dresses make us hungry, make us happy and make us wonder how the hell they sat down in those things.

The Morning Dish: How to Leave the Salon Unscratched

Published by Jennifer under Morning Dish

Salon

For most women (and some men), their hairstylist is their therapist, best friend, psychic, and lover (you know, hypothetically speaking) all rolled into one. What you tell them is completely up to you, but remember that while there is practically an unwritten rule about the stylist-stylee confidentiality, your stylist isn’t legally obligated to keep quiet.

Just because you trust her to give you a killer hair-do, doesn’t mean you can trust her to not tell everyone about your cheating on your taxes, boyfriend, calculus exam, whatever. In fact, salons are havens for gossip, so just be careful.
