The Craziest Black Friday Incidents of 2011

The Craziest Black Friday Incidents of 2011

Black Friday violence has become just as much of a holiday tradition as turkey on Thanksgiving. If you turned on the TV Friday morning and you saw the reports of guns, stampedes, and hair-pulling. This year we also saw a lot of pepper spray since that’s the weapon of the moment. Even if you stayed home you might not have been safe from the madness of black Friday; you still probably caught a commercial playing “Friday,” and now have the ear worm stuck in your head yet again. Here are some of the scariest scenes from yesterday’s “competitive shopping.” More »

Crushable's Guide To Black Friday: Stay Home

Thanksgiving is coming this Thursday. And you know what that makes the day after that: Black Friday. Black Friday is the annual party that takes place when countless retailers open their doors to crazed shoppers who will run around picking up whatever low priced products they can stick in their carts, put under their shirts or nab from passersby. Except it’s less like a party and more like a nightmare.

But the most important, best piece of advice is usually left out. And it’s quite simple: Stay the fuck home. More »

Clothing-induced shame sprial — You might be ashamed to admit it, but you probably have things in your closet that you regret buying. At least you can take comfort in the fact that you’re not alone in spending a boatload of money on something you only wore once, or worse — not at all. (via The Frisky)

What Do You Do When One Of Your Favorite Products Is Discontinued?

What Do You Do When One Of Your Favorite Products Is Discontinued?

Nothing lasts forever. And those products you know and love, from shampoo down to what flavor yogurt you prefer, are not always going to be available. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found myself enjoying and needing more and more products every day. Like my soap-free Aveeno face wash, Estee Lauder perfume and Burt’s Bees chapstick. And then there’s one thing I’ve haven’t gone a day without since high school: bronzer.

For the past few years, I’ve been obsessed with my Cargo… More »

Orlando Bloom Proves Himself Human Male; Hates Shoe-Shopping

Orlando Bloom Proves Himself Human Male; Hates Shoe-Shopping

And here we were thinking Orlando Bloom was just a Ken Doll (okay, maybe more of a Barbie) automaton, incapable of injecting any amount of testosterone into a room. Turns out there is something Orlando shares in common with other, non-elvish men: he hates watching his fiance shop for shoes!

According to Page Six, Miranda Kerr spent all Memorial Day dragging Orlando around so she could try on footwear, and he finally broke down in the cafe of Bergdorf Goodman. An… More »

Video: Crushable Asks Guys - What's In Your Bag?

Do you ever wonder what men shop for when they’re without their lady friends? We were set to find out, and our experiment yielded two results: Dudes don’t really love it when you harass them at six p.m. on a rainy Tuesday afternoon, with temperatures dropping, and all the guys in Union Square (my favorite place, bee tee dubbs) are either trying to catch their flight home to Stockholm or not barking up my tree. Still, I now know what men buy when they don’t have a helpful women’s guidance: girl jeans, fedoras, doggie treats, and ferns. Enjoy. More »

Hilary Duff was spotted out doing some shopping today at the Eye Candy eyeglass boutique in Studio City. Maybe buying a new set of sunglasses as we head into Spring and Summer?

Just yesterday Hilary was also spotted out in Studio City going to her pilates class. I think today’s outfit is far nicer – Hilary always looks fantastic in her scarves and I love the well worn-in cowgirl boots. Also, the turquoise bracelet is fantastic!
