The rich pay fewer taxes, and celebrities get free clothes — just some of life’s many injustices.
But you would think — if you were one of those lucky celebs — you’d wear free clothing that was a) good-looking and b) looked good on you.
Case in point: Express has been giving away the same blue-and-red striped dress to a lot of young actresses in Hollywood. Take a look-see:
Now, with the exception of January Jones (who is many months pregnant right now), these are some of the skinniest women on the planet..and yet the broad, horizontal stripes make them appear short and wide and thick, which I doubt was the goal.
(Imagine what this dress would look like on someone of average size, height and weight. No, I take that back…don’t.)
I know it’s free, ladies, but that doesn’t mean you have to wear it. Your jobs all pay pretty well. Although you may have forgotten how, you can pay for your own clothing…just like the rich can pay more taxes.
(Well, it’s fun to think about anyway…isn’t it?)
Priceless
Ripped from the headlines in jolly ol’ England…
Downton Abbey meets Occupy Wall Street!
Friends say she was conducting a peaceful protest as a member ‘UK Uncut,’ a grassroots group formed to highlight ‘corporate tax dodging’ and alternatives to the government’s spending cuts.
Police say she was arrested to preempt the aggravated trespass that was clearly being established.
Seriously?
While I’m sure her presence outside the window was aggravating to certain Barclays employees, any charges of trespass are trumped up at best.
Me? I’d charge her with a keen sense of humor, creativity and — I gotta say it…
Balls.
