  • Why I Take Birth Control

    I started taking birth control because I was violently depressed and my OBGYN thought it would help balance out my hormones. I didn’t start taking it to whore it up or to get jiggy without the consequences. I did it for my mental health. And you know what? It helped. I cried every day. Every…

  • That Time Topshop Made Me Feel Like A Cow

    I’ll admit it. I have let myself go a little bit. Because I love French fries, and it was the holidays, and I was sick, and blah blah blah, and at the end of the day I gave zero fucks and ate what I wanted. My clothes still fit … I just feel gross and…

  • My Last Day In My 20s

    Yes … sigh… that is me. At age 4 I want to say? Always in heels. You rarely ever caught me without heels on. I would literally walk into a strangers home and ask for a pair of heels. A lot hasn’t changed. I still love my heels. But you sure as fuck will never…

  • (wh)Y Are Dresses So Ugly Right Now?!

    I have a holiday party on the horizon, and even though I have a solid 3 options currently sitting in my closet, I decided to take to the interwebs in search of “the perfect dress.”  You know what I mean when I say “perfect dress” right? That dress you imagine yourself in, walking into rooms,…

  • What Do We Do? The 2016 Presidential Election

    I really was so above and beyond excited to sit here and write this post about how honored and thrilled I am to have a woman FINALLY elected president. I was going to talk about how I was probably still drunk from celebrating, and how my keyboard was covered in happy tears. Welp, my keyboard…

  • Fear And Loathing Of Snapchat

    You may want to throw shit at your computer screen after you read the next sentence, but … I hate Snapchat. Like a lot. I really do.  Is the app downloaded onto my phone? Yes. Only because I want to “stay in the know” and not become an ancient tech dinosaur that says things like,…

  • Shame Me: I Bought A Kylie Lip Kit

    I’m writing this post with my head down, covered in shame and disgust. I want ALL of you to know this. I hate myself just a little bit right now.  :::sigh::: I purchased a Kylie Lip Kit :::shakes head::: Don’t look at me.  Why? Well, I’ll be honest with you. I was drinking too much…

  • Brunch, A Night Club, & the Faux-dashians

    I remember when I had a fake ID, going to “da club” was something out of Sex and the City. I thought everything was so chic. I would sit on the velvet couches, sipping my cosmopolitan whilst rocking my boot cut jeans and satin “going out top,” thinking life really couldn’t get much more glamorous…

  • The Road To 30

    Recently I’ve been thinking a lot about Life Sucks In A Strapless Bra. And me. I was a clueless 24-year-old when I gave birth to it, and here I am, a clueless almost 30-year-old. Now what? Where are we going? Who am I?  And then, as I was huffing and puffing and sweating profusely while…

  • I’m BACK.

    So I bet all five of you reading this have been frantically clicking on Life Sucks In A Strapless Bra every day being all, “why hasn’t there been a post in almost a month!” “Did she quit?!” “Does life no longer suck in a strapless bra and I didn’t get the memo?!”  No. No no…
