Maison de Carven, more than just mildly obsessed. Someone at Carven got into my head Being John Malkovitch style…. Bows on all shoes, floral crowns and braided hair do’s, 60s inspired baby doll dresses and suits… Are you kidding me?? #mylife Uhh P.S. I’d LOVE to go back in time to the 1960s and bring Mia Farrow some pieces from this collection.

Obsession of the Moment: “Betches Love This Site” dot commmmm

Posted on July 26, 2011 by Our Little Truffle Hunters | Leave a comment

Betcheslovethissite.com has been online and hysterically read by all our favorite betches for a while now but they continue to impress … If you have ever felt like there is too much positive influence for women in our society today, this site is your new best friend. “Betches” are girls who are pretty, thin and cool. And if you are a Betch, or even sort of a Betch, you will indeed LOVE this site. They are proficient in all the “abbrevs” you thought only you used, tell you how to handle the “dud” in your group, first dates, landing pros (as opposed to ‘bros’), and more. They explain how to never question yourself, dress like a slut, fulfill your inner desire to be shady, fake smile, avoid working, drink bottled water ONLY, be smarter than everyone else, and more. Obviously their idol is Regina George and even their tagline reads: “So you agree? You think you’re really pretty?” (character and line from Mean Girls for the newcomer).
