Sexy high-waisted panties that cover your whole ass
Victoria secret keeps flashing in my facebook feed, and as much as I appreciate a hungry-looking butt feasting on thongs, that look is not for me. But I also want to look good in and like my underwear at the same time. Fruit of the Loom’s cheap enormous cotton panties (*though I love me some natural fibres) are not cutting it. Help? Be my magical undie-god-mothers?
Halloween style: Get gothic from head to toe
Over on our sister site Offbeat Bride, we rounded up a bunch of goodies from our sponsors for Halloween weddings. Most of these things aren’t just for weddings at all though. So please to enjoy, Halloween fashions and gifts for all!
Finding pants for big bellies, or: Why I rock maternity pants when I’m not pregnant
No pants ever fit! Everyone thinks I am pregnant! Where can I find pants that accommodate a big belly? Then it struck me: Well, maternity pants. Duh. So I have been wearing this Target pair for a few months. But I’m wondering… Do any Offbeat Mamas or Homies with Non-Baby Bumps have more recommendations for belly-accommodating stores or styles that are comfortable and go a step above yoga/sweatpants?

How I use my panties for a quick confidence boost
It began to get to the point where every single time I was anywhere near Victoria’s Secret, I had to buy the 5 pairs for $27 deal. It isn’t a bad price, until you end up with over a hundred pairs of underwear. So why, oh why, do I love buying new underwear so much?

My “professional dress” experiment
When I first started to work in schools, it seemed like a no brainer that I had to build myself a professional wardrobe. And then this past year, I tried a little experiment. What if I just started wearing jeans? I’d still look nice. Clean, groomed, all that jazz. But no makeup, certainly no heels, and no dress pants. A couple of things happened…
How to use a washing machine to dye a dress
We just talked about how to break the news of a divorce on social media. While on our sister site Offbeat Bride we’re talking about what to do with that perfectly-fitting wedding dress after you divorce. However, you don’t have to be going through a divorce to reap the benefits of this DIY. Plus there’s a super-uplifting story to boot…
