My sister, your sister, my gf, your gf, your wife, your female friends, my female friends, no one use them inside the house. Comfort always comes first.
So the question is, how about outside?
Question: no bra, no problem?
Answer: yes.
Wait, for everybody?
Well, lets divide our world in three groups:
celebrities of all ages
20 something non-celebrities
older non-celebrities
Lets see what celebrities think about it:
See? They couldn’t careless.
They do it because they can, and they need to be in the news constantly since image and being talked about is everything for them.
How about non-celebrities?
See, they do it because they feel great doing it.
Fashion is a statement.
They are saying loud and clear how greatthey feel doing it.
Don’t like it?
It is your problem.
As I said, I don’t like to see pink cars, so what?
"All of it came from my family’s real estate management company, of which i own 30%.
My brother owns another 30% and my father, 40%. I’m worth more than most people i know, especially my age, but I know quite a few wealthy people where I live. Two close friends of mine come from billionaire families (one’s father sold his real estate company for R$ 800 mm about 10 years ago, the other’s family owns a relatively important investment bank in Brasil).
Most of my net worth is in high-end real estate in Rio de Janeiro, a chunck of it in bonds that generate me more than 15% per year in returns, thanks to the huge interest rates down here.
My father’s net worth is much bigger though, as he earns money for a long time now (he estimates it at a little over R$ 100 mm, or about 31 mm USD, as of today.
We don’t live a lavish lifestyle for american standards - no fancy cars, no boat, but we do live in a house one could call a mansion. We also travell quite a lot and mostly first/business class, sometimes for extended periods of time. I spent 2 months in Southeast Asia at the beginning of the year, went first class in Etihad Airways, was quite a nice experience.
I’m starting a watch collection though:
The apple watch is the only one I regret buying :)
The best thing about having a high networth at such an age is the freedom it gives me. Some of my friends have to work for bosses and worry about their future and it’s great not to be in that “race”. I work quite a lot, but with my father, and we treat each other like business partners, and i often call some important shots."
"Shopping for a tween girl is HARD. I know – I am currently LIVING it. They don’t fit in the kid’s departments anymore and they are too young for the stores you shop in — so where do you go? This is my current mission. I’ve decided to start documenting all the great finds I score while hunting down picks for Natalie just in case you are in the same boat as me.
Don’t expect full blown photo shoots. It’s really more of a time capsule of ideas. A look into what she’s wearing to school every day with links to purchase. I don’t want to burden her with full blown shoots. She will HATE me if I start doing that. BUT a pic before she heads onto the bus is completely feasible.
This morning, Natalie wore theMini Edna Dress from Lilly Pulitzer. It’s is a cotton knit tunic dress with a waterfall hem and rolled sleeves. It’s SUPER easy to wear and it’s no fuss. But… it’s as cute as can BE! Love this printed tunic dress."
" Ah, the American Mall. It's a beacon of teenage independence, the site of many a movie makeover, and a windowless prison where mothers and daughters go to scream at each other. In theory, shopping with your momis a magical bonding experience that comes with a bunch of free clothes. In practice, it's an emotional roller coaster ride that often ends in public crying.
One moment, you're sipping caramel macchiatos and laughing like a mom and daughter in a stock photo. The next, you're locked in a heated disagreement over what constitutes a "sensible shoe" (mom: running shoes; you: open-toed sandals with no arch support) and people are staring. Modesty, body image, and parental control will come into play, as the entire experience is engineered to dredge up all the messy maternal feels. It's not to say that you don't love each other and all, but by the end of your Mall trip, you may be questioning whether or not you truly share the same DNA.
In FX's new comedy Better Things, created by and starring Pamela Adlon, we see honest depictions of these and other perennial moments of motherhood. For all the humans who have survived the mother-daughter shopping trip, we've partnered with Better Things to break down the experience. Cause when it comes to shopping with mom, sometimes you have to laugh just to keep yourself from sobbing in the food court.
Symptoms: Affection, enthusiasm, grand delusions of immediate compromise, high expectations ready to be shattered.
What mom is thinking: "What fun! A chance to really level with my daughter as a friend and equal. Maybe we can get ~matching outfits~"
What daughter is thinking: "What fun! Free stuff! All I have to do is give my mom the pleasure of my company for two hours, and some fresh new duds are mine."
Monetary price: Zero dollars.
Emotional price: An eventual fall from harmonious, mother-daughter grace... to come later.
Stage 2: Realizing Your Irreconcilable Differences
Symptoms: Mom and daughter picking out things that are diametric opposites, Mom goes for practicality, Daughter goes for cool factor, debate and rabbling begin to simmer, both parties agree that they like one small token as a good-will gesture.
What the mom is thinking: "Everything she wants looks like it was cut for a toddler."
What the daughter is thinking: "Everything she likes is too big, too boring, or too similar to what she dressed me in as a kid."
Monetary price: $20 for a pair of sunglasses that you can both agree you need.
Emotional Price: Mounting tension.
Stage 3: Persuasion and Bargaining
Symptoms: Both parties attempting to persuade each other in favor of their respective opinions. Bribery with affection, free food, or other commodities may be employed.
What the mom is thinking: "How did I raise a creature who doesn't understand how impractical pre-ripped clothing is? If I can get her to buy those mid-rise Bermuda shorts, she'll thank me later."
What the daughter is thinking: "How does she not get it?! Rips make jeansmore expensive,. It's simple economics!"
Monetary price: A pair of modest shorts that mom likes more than daughter, and thus, agrees to buy.
Emotional price: A mom's resentment at a daughter's snobby, sarcastic agreement to wear the aforementioned shorts.
Stage 4: Full-Scale Breakdown
Symptoms: Anger, frustration, Mom making passive aggressive comments, Daughter making bratty comments, crying, frequently takes place in shoe departments.
What the mom thinks: "FINE! She wants some inane gladiator sandals?! Let's see if I'll be here to pay for the privilege of her abuse when she comes crawling back after these torture devices chew her feet up. JUST like life.
What the daughter thinks: "UUUGH!!! Why can't she stop trying to control my identity and let me show the world who I am with these Gladiator Sandals?!? I AM MY OWN PERSON!!"
Monetary price: $100 for a pair of impractical, trendy shoes bought out of spite.
Emotional price: A daughter's self esteem, a mother's self-respect; trust.
Stage 5: Reconciliation and Acceptance
Symptoms: Apologies, stopping for ice cream, an agreement that the mall is the villain here. Usually preceded by a period of cold silence and mounting guilt.
What mom thinks: "I'm never doing this again...."
What daughter thinks: "I'm never doing this again..."
Monetary price: $10 for 2 ice cream cones, because ice cream smooths everything over.
Emotional price: A tacit understanding that clothing (like politics) is something that will always be a controversial topic between you two. And that, despite what they swear, they will endure this horrible episode again."
" When we get dressed in the morning, our main focus tends to be on what makes us look good. However, we may need to start thinking about how our style affects our bodies, as there are certainfashion choices that can hurt our health.Many of us enjoy picking out cool outfits, but for those of us concerned with the long term effects of what we wear, that awesome look probably isn't worth it, especially when there are less harmful options out there that can still have us looking fabulous.
"It's great to be fashionable, but not when it risks your health," dermatologist Dr. Debra Jaliman, author of Skin Rules: Trade Secrets From A Top New York Dermatologist," tells me over email. But it's not uncommon for women to dress in outfits that are uncomfortable in order to look good — we've all heard the saying "Beauty Is Pain," but it turns out this pain can have some long term effects that most of us likely don't want.
No one's saying you need to wear sweatpants and baggy T-shirts every single day, but knowing what fashion statements have long-term effects can help you make more healthy choices and help you cut down on how frequently you wear these items. Wearing high heels once won't kill you, but wearing them daily might leave you with some serious foot damage.
If you think your outfits might be causing some issues with your well being, consider these eight fashion choices that could be hurting your health.
1. Skinny Jeans
Wearing tight pants may look cute, but they can also cause abdominal discomfort and swelling. One incident studied in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry involved a woman who experienced nerve damage severe enough to cause numbness after a day of wearing skinny jeans. "Tight pants can also cause yeast infections," says Jaliman. Good thing boyfriend jeans are still in style.
2. High Heels
When you think of painful accessories, high heels may be the first on your list, and that discomfort is a sign that you're doing damage to your ankles. A study from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte found that long term wear of high heels leads to instability and weakening of the ankle muscles, and over time, this ligament and nerve damage in the ankle leads to complications in the legs and back.
3. Corsets
Waist training is trendy these days, but is it really worth it? Wearing a corset for too long can weaken abdominal muscles, cause issues with breathing, and even create acid reflux, according to Health Magazine. There's also no evidence that these corsets can shrink your waist, so you're better off going without them.
4. Heavy Dangly Earrings
Heavy, dangly earrings can cause damage to the earlobes. Not only can they be easily caught or tugged on, but the weight of the earring can stretch the earlobe and thin it out, according to the Huffington Post. "Cheap metal earrings can also cause allergic reactions from the nickel," says Jaliman.
You might think wearing flats is a better option than wearing heels, but they can be just as bad for your feet. "Ballet flats are no better than high heels, as they offer no cushioning or support, which can lead to heel pain," says Jaliman. Take advantage of the athleisure trend as an opportunity to wear some supportive sneakers on the daily.
It's hard to imagine that underwear could be dangerous, but according to Medical Daily, people who are predisposed to vaginal infections have an increased susceptibility to infections when wearing a thong. These types of underwear typically aren't made of cotton, so when they rub up on your skin in the areas between your backside and your front side, it's causing tiny tears, inviting bacteria into the skin.
Large, heavy bags are convenient if you've got a lot to carry around — and they can be super stylish — but they aren't the best for your posture. "The increased weight to one side of the body can wreak havoc, causing muscle imbalances, pain, and loss of balance," Dr. Scott Schreiber tells me over email.
8. High-Waisted Pants
"High waisted pants are known for putting pressure on the abdomen, causing heartburn," says Schreiber. "They will also cause you to breathe irregular, weakening your core muscles."
Experimenting with different outfits can be fun, but just make sure you're looking out for your own health, and try to make choices that not only make you look good, but feel good as well."
