We can’t knock any fashion for a good cause. So, we’re going to have to put the snark away for this one. HARTZGLOVES is manufacturing a special pair of pink gloves to benefit Susan G. Komen. Deidre Goodwin is the CEO of HALTZGLOVES. She started the light-up gloves company after she was nearly struck by a car while directing traffic. Her gloves can be seen for 1,250 linear feet and are used by various police departments, crossing guards, and others looking for safety. In addition, breast cancer has touched Goodwin’s life. "My mom's best friend passed away from breast cancer. My parents stepped in to assist with the care of her children. It is hard to believe that 20 years later we are still talking about breast cancer. Millions have been affected by breast cancer and I want to change that. I am so honored to know that HALTZGLOVES can have a part in finding a cure." You can pre-order your pair now and help in “Bringing a HALTZ to Breast Cancer.” For each pair of pink gloves sold, $5 will be donated to Susan G. Komen. Like what you read here?

We get it—designers are all ethereal, and cutting-edge, and… weird. We’ve got the weird covered, but we don’t have the juice to design bullsh*t clothing that no one would buy. No real-world person, that is. Mission accomplished, Thom Browne. Everyone’s mouth-gaped-open at your Spring 2020 collection that fuses Marie Antoinette, and rich-people sports. Check this out: WTF is this!?!? How bad is life that you need a cod piece? And this dude looks miserable, like: “I should’ve gotten that degree in basketweaving.” Cod pieces best be left to rock stars and celebrities. Like Larry Blackmon of Cameo. NOTE: This is how you wear a cod piece. Make that thang stand out instead of Thom Browne’s “let’s blend it all together.” Like what you read here?

Pump the brakes on dropping serious cash on some fine duds, dudes. You can look fine without breaking the bank. We appreciate when a man makes the effort to look good for us, but we want you to have some cash left over to treat us to some wine and a steak dinner. While these threads are super fly, we almost passed out from sticker shock. This colorful collared shirt from Robert Graham is fun. And $158. You’re laughing—not because of the fun factor, but because of the WTF factor. Meanwhile, this sweet Robert Graham jacket turns sour… clocking-in at $479. We know it seems like we’re Old Navy’s bitch, but we’re not. You can get some cool looking clothes for a fraction of the price. Check out this shirt: $79.99. Sure, it’s not made from fine Corinthian leather, or rabbit fur, or whatever. But it looks good. Dudes—what we care most about is that your clothes are clean, your fruit bowl ain’t rank, and that you tried and succeeded. Like what you read here?

It’s about get all heat-indexy up in here, so the less clothes, the better. What better way to stay cool and comfy than with a pair of denim shorts. With a comfy cut. Not the kind where we can see your womb, ladies. You could go designer, like celebs do, and snag this pair from Socialite for $129. Both are cute, high-waisted, with rips. One, dare we say, is a rip off… With a savings of $114.01, you can buy five of this totally adorbs unicorn pillow from Target. Not that we need unicorns…. But we don’t need a $129 pair of shorts.

Start with your FREE 10-day trial. Who doesn’t dig a pair of ripped jeans? Instant, cool, rockstar cred! Men and women have been donning ripped leg coverings forever. We prefer earning ours—you know, from years of wear-and-tear because they’re your favorite pair (and they still fit—bonus!) We scoff at purchasing ripped denim because of the asinine price tag. Case in point: Socialite’s Kendall High Waist Slim Jean in Sin City. Retail price: $189. They look all comfy (we’re becoming fans of high-waisted, cuz muffin tops are only delicious when they’re actual muffins.) They look tres chic with the fringy-stuff on the bottom. But there is no way we’re spending this much on a pair of jeans—unless they magically massage our butt cheeks (don’t judge.) Here’s an acceptable pair for you ladies, courtesy of Old Navy. High rise: check Ripped: check (in two places!) Fringe: nope Price tag: Win!!! On sale for $35. With the extra money, you can buy a pair of scissors to make the leg fringe, if you desire. Don’t get “ripped” off… yeah, you can slap us for that one. Like what you read here?

Why should tiger print or zebra print or leopard spots be appropriate only for cougars looking for cubs in some sweaty, Rum Runner-filled EDM-intense environment? Let these prints out in the daylight for the common women of the world! Actress Jana Kramer was seen wearing this top from Socialite at some event. That got us thinking: “We should wear this, too. Nothing says ‘Rockstar’ like an animal print! We want to feel like rockstars all the time!” You can snag this top for just $19.97. We say squeeze into your faux leather pants—actually, black leggings (let’s be real here), throw this top on, and get that swag on as you shop for produce and almond butter at the local market. And don’t forget the hooker shoes… Like what you read here?

Our problem with eyewear isn’t that we feel old or nerdy. Age is just a number and nerds are cool. What we have a problem with is how damned expensive eyeglasses are! Can you say: it-cost-me-an-arm-and-a-leg-for-the-sake-of-my-eyes?
We’re not the only one feeling the pain in the wallet. Sean McGinley co-founded Empowered Eyewear after he went from store to store with his daughter searching for the perfect frames that fit her style, personality--and price point. She settled for a neutral frame that could co-ordinate with everything. Not fun. Not what she wanted. Introducing: the interchangeable eyewear frame. It works with a simple, Lift, Switch, and Click. Swap styles and save more money in the long run—and look on-point.
The company is offering a BOGO deal, which is making these four eyes weep with joy.

There exists one item of clothing that women love. Like, really love. Like, wear-a-lot love. HEX Perfomance’s commissioned study has uncovered that that item is (cue dramatic music): Leggings Get a leg-up with these stats (see what we did there?): More than half of women are wearing leggings every...other...day: 55% of women are wearing leggings three or more times a week and that number jumps to 63% when looking at the younger generation (18-24 year olds.) Are leggings the new jeans?: 40% of women actually own more pairs of leggings than they do jeans – an item once largely a part of our everyday wardrobes. Leggings aren’t just for the gym: Leggings are versatile + comfortable which means you can wear them virtually anywhere—and women do! From lounging around the house, yoga and HIIT leggings to errands and a night out, women have specific leggings for different occasions. The most popular? Nearly half of respondents (47%) have leggings specifically for lounging around the house -- that's more than specific leggings for yoga/low-intensity workouts (38%). 36% of respondents had leggings for a night out and ¼ of respondents, 25%, even have “office” leggings! Well, since it’s all about the leggings, HEX wants you to slip inside their leggings. Why? They’re odor eliminating, fabric protected, skin friendly, biodegradable and cruelty free. P.S. Do you mean cruelty-free as in we won’t look like a fat-ass wearing these? Sign us up. Like what you read here?

Actor Jeremy Piven is cool. Right? He doesn’t seem like a total d-bag. So, we suppose dudes are likely to follow his fashion cue? Do guys even do that? The Piv-ster was photogged wearing a cool-looking striped tee from Mercy & Loyal. We’d show you the image, but it’s all copyrighted, blah, blah, blah. Here’s the shirt: FYI: Piven did not have this soft-man look with the floppy hair and the “who farted?” face. He wore his shirt with jeans, and a white cropped denim jacket and gold chain. The later two items are on the wanna-be-Jersey-Shore list, but that’s not the point of this tale. The point is: this designer shirt is $75. This Italian-imported sweat-catcher is $75!!! This is a way better option: Men—save your money. This tee is also striped. It’s also cool. And Old Navy is selling it for $7! It’s soft-washed! Plus, this guy looks like he knows how to have fun. He looks like he has a job and a gf. The other dude still lives with his parents. Be the Old Navy-fun-guy-with-a-life and save your money. Then you can buy your own gf. Wha!?!?
