It’s time for us to say goodbye to Rainbow flip flops. Now, we’re not saying it’s time for you. It’s sort of a personal decision. It’s not a certain age that you must say goodbye, more of a feeling. And we woke up this morning knowing…it’s time to say goodbye. So what to wear instead?! Here are some ideas:
Cute, but with all the functionality of the Rainbow (for daytime errands): $98
More function, less style (for wearing to spin class before slipping into spin shoes): $179
For the more stylish flip flop moments (when trying to look chic at the Cloister pool): $49

We’ve seen these lists before, and they are usually really obvious things like “huge burlap sacks” and “large oversized sorority t-shirts that have chocolate milk stains and are 12 years old.” However, we recently came across a list from MSN that threw us some curve balls. Some of them we get (Harem pants, Uggs, Jumpsuits), but we were surprised by the following:
3. Headbands
He Says: “Why would anyone choose to actively look like Bjorn Borg?”
elaney Says: Hmm, get it, but on the right girl, these can be cute (unlike pigtails).
6. Leggings
He Says: “I am perplexed as to why women think it’s cool to dress like Cyndi Lauper. Do girls really want to have fun? I think they would have a lot more if they removed their leggings.”
elaney Says: “He Says” going for the really obvious sexual humor – hilarious, as usual.
8. Oversized Sunglasses
He Says: “You look like a human-size praying mantis walking towards me.”
elaney Says: Surely this doesn’t refer to Tom Fords.
10. Fringed Detailing
He Says: “Now I am just thinking about Russell Crowe again, gah.”
elaney Says: We didn’t even knew men knew how to verbalize “Fringe detailing,” let alone not like it.
What do you think? Men, do you agree? Women, are you surprised?

Our great celebrity love has chopped his long curly looks. What do you think? Upgrade or downgrade?

So we all know that no one wears white to a wedding, except the bride (assuming she’s not with child and even then it’s fine these days. es fiiiiine). And we all know that it’s probably best not to wear white to the rehersal dinner (at least if you in the same age range as the bride and in the wedding party). However, here’s something all of us at elaney are stumped on (and of course, none of the interns from NYU Journalism School have a clue): Can you wear white to an engagement party? Even if there’s no rule about it, it just feels a little bold. But we looooove white dresses (and of course, the highly publicized love for white shorts). This little white knit Milly…es okay? Or would wearing it yield a bunch of women that pronounce “spider” more like “spida” talking about you?

Spanx just debuted their newest product…the undershirt…for men. On the one hand, it’s pretty hard to imagine most men actually buying these, but it is pretty cute to think that somewhere out there there is a man that has a glimpse of what it’s like to be a girl. What do you think? Will these bomb? Or will men think Man Spanx are da bomb?
*Tried to think of a catchy title but realized “Man Spanx” says enough on it’s own
