We always see men in the media, but we don’t always notice how great their style is.

Written By : Jessica Schirripa Recent headlines regarding celebrities and politics define social hypocrisy. My biggest issue has nothing to do with being anti-trump/pro-streep or vice verse, it’s that we live in a culture which encourages individuals to have a voice, the right to personal opinion, and be brave enough to stand up and share it, […]

Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea. Don’t you know that what you put out in the universe is what you receive sometimes?

Remember when we were upset about the dreadlocks controversy at Marc Jacobs? Well here’s a legitimate reason why.

You probably remember the hit movie “Straight Outta Compton” last year, and if you’re super particular about things like the Bechdel test (like myself) then you probably also remember that there was little interaction with women in the movie other than talking about the men in their lives. As soon as the movie came out, Michel’le, […]
Award shows are pretty much a snooze these days to me because it’s so predictable who the winners are going to be, and usually it really just depends on the year to get a really good mix of celebrities and movies and television shows represented. Luckily, this year’s Emmys happened to be one of the […]

Everyone has inherent biases that go with us in our daily decisions, but this one really hurt.
