Jimmy Kimmel, not Jimmy Fallon. :-) I like them both but they’re not the same. Look up “You sneaky mom,” from his Halloween version. it’s great.
Kate O'Brien
That’s Jimmy Kimmel, not Jimmy Fallon.

Love Hautelnks! But can’t believe you said that turtlenecks are geeky. They are not!

Haha, thanks for the multiple corrections, guys – total typo, I know which is which. Can you tell it’s been a long week? Fixed it. :)

Funnily enough, my school WAS on the list of college libraries (barely). I feel bad though, because I have yet to set foot in Fisher. -__-
Isobel
Love the library list! Trinity College Dublin = best!
Kristi
That computer generated model issue from H&M is ridiculous. I mean, I can’t believe everyone is saying such bad things about it, I prefer it to real models! That way I can say “Hmm will this colour look good with my skin tone? Well, I have the same skin tone as her.. so I can check!”
Then people are saying it creates unrealistic expectations – and yet, models do the same but are worse because most models are even skinner than these computer generated ones!
I just can’t believe it. People will argue over anything nowadays.
Claudia
How do I get the outfit selector from Madewell to work?
