The Fedora’s Feminist Origins: From Women’s Rights Symbol to Fashion Statement

The fedora, often associated with mobsters, originally held significance as a representation of the Women’s Rights Movement. Initially, the fedora was designed as a hat for women and gained popularity through the influential actress Sarah Bernhardt, who was known for her cross-dressing roles. Making its debut in 1882 as women’s headwear, the fedora quickly became a fashion staple among women, particularly those advocating for women’s rights.

Dog Mullets Are In, So Get on Board!

I don’t know what you want from me. I’m just here to deliver the news that we’re giving our dogs mullets now, and there’s nothing you can do about it, so you might as well accept it.

Come to a place of acceptance and then join us all on Instagram with pics of proof and the hashtag #DogMullet. It’s gonna be ok. It’s gonna be fun.

Here, I’ll give you some examples. Here are some dogs with mullets, accompanied by randomly generated lyrics from non-existent rock songs to set the mood.

10. Sadie

“Look him just in the eyes
Wanna grab him by the hair
Wanna hug him and squeeze his tiny fists
Raven hair, raven hair”

9. Ol’ Chuck

“I want to live a life that’s always worth living
I want to fight for country and been country bound
I want to ride and drink and some gin and sharp bros
Just a lost boy and a pretty girl”

8. Darlene

“As our home back then
We watched the stars descend
Yeah, home at night
When the dogs come home”

7. Sammie

“I let down my hair and shine my shoes
I close my eyes and feel the cold
Cold beer in my hand
God gave moses a little beer”

6. Rex

“We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
When the mice and men walked in”

5. Barber-Jo

“Being that she gives so much, he takes for what she gives
Blowing up in the veins of an aching, craving man
Oh my old heart
Oh my old heart”

4. Charlie

“Might just go out to eat, when I hop on the road
Might just go out to eat, when I hop on the road
And sweet nothings
Open mouth closed”

3. Pabst

“I am drinkin, we are dancers
I am drinkin, we are liars
Were in this club
Are you drinkin, babe”

2. Rufus

“I was raised on the right side
Then I spent all night alone
Keep your hopes on the right side baby
Keep your fires on the right side baby”

1. Donny

“Cold summer night
In a cold summer night
Yeah, I turn up before the sundown
Summer swings every month night”

It’s really, truly inspiring.

What haircut should we start trying on dogs next?

People Are Putting Wigs on Dogs Now Because, Why Not?

I have a quick question for you. If you were to, hypothetically, head over to Instagram and search for the hashtag #dogwig, how many results do you think would pop up?

No cheating. No peeking. Take a guess. A few? Dozens? Hundreds? What if I were to tell you that the answer is *SEVERAL THOUSAND.*

That’s right, thousands of people found a wig, put that wig on their dog, took a picture of that, uploaded it to the internet, and took the time to be sure to add the right tag so that it could be properly found.

That’s just the world we’re living in. That’s just Instagram. And here are some of our favorite dogs that have been found as a result, with names and personalities we’re purely guessing about based on their aesthetic.

10. Mr. Stacks

Always has candy for you. Doesn’t understand why millennials are struggling because he thinks a four bedroom house still costs a dollar.

9. Leslie

Has some hot neighborhood gossip to tell you, if she can get up the nerve.

8. The Barrister

He has served this court for fifty years, and he’ll have none of your nonsense here.

7. Frank

One of the only people who has actually read all the books on his shelves. Doesn’t remember anything in them.

6. His Honor

Order. Order in the court.

5. Zachery

Disappointed by the sales of his latest album, but trying to rebrand that as a “turning point for him.”

4. Ashleigh

Just needs to bum a cigarette off you real quick if that’s alright.

3. Pat

Didn’t realize everyone else at this costume party was going to actually put in so much effort.

2. Cruella

A turncoat for dogs if ever there was one.

1. Margerie

Very happy you took the time to mow her lawn, now just wait right there and she’ll find her checkbook.

I love them all. I love their looks.

Which one is your favorite?

These High Fashion Designs Are Totally Out of the Box

There are people who pay no attention to high fashion (even if they follow the trends once they reach the plebs), and there are people who absolutely love to see what each designer puts on the runway for the new season.

No matter which you are, I think we can all agree that fashion is also a form of art, and therefore usually has something to say.

When it comes to these 15 designs, though, the jury is still out as to what – Instagram account @hintmag is bringing us the absolute weirdest things on the runway.

15. Y’all I want to be kind.

But this is absolutely horrible.

14. I don’t know where to look first.

And I kind of feel like I shouldn’t look at any of it?

13. I actually love this.

I would have nowhere to wear it, obviously, but still.

12. The gold is stunning.

What if your assets don’t fit in there, though?

11. This is made from recycled ocean plastics.

Sensible AND beautiful. What more could you want?

10. This is as fabulous as it is bizarre.

Those shoes are to die for.

9. I do love hydrangea.

That gold neck thing looks like a dog’s cone, though.

8. Not your basic black.

Those sequins really make it pop.

7. The shoe fits either foot.

There’s some kind of metaphor there, I think.

6. When you want to hide in a garment bag.

And honestly, who hasn’t?

5. 100% I would wear this.

It’s full of secrets.

4. This isn’t for Casual Friday.

This makes a statement.

3. If a 2yo girl designed a dress.

This would be her dream.

2. How is she not cracking up wearing these?

I would not be able to manage.

1. Can one sit in this? Drive?

I’m thinking it’s just a standing dress.

It’s almost like they’re pulling our legs, but we know we’re not expected to actually read that. Right?

Have you ever seen someone actually wearing something like this in real life? Tell us the story in the comments!

People Share the Fashion Trends They Really Don’t Like

I’ve seen some pretty funny and embarrassing fashion trends over the years.

HyperColor t-shirts, enormous JNCO pants, tight-rolling your jeans, etc.

And the big one that sticks out now to me is how young hipster types in their twenties are now dressing in awful clothes from the early 1990s. I’m talking about Vuarnet France t-shirts, fanny packs, colorful shorts…it’s just really terrible if you ask me…

What fashion trends do you really not like?

Here’s how AskReddit users responded.

1. Enough with the toes.

“Peep-toed shoes. Who thought showing off your big toe and maybe the one next to it looked good?!

Drives me up the wall when they do it to boots, because they’ve defeated the purpose of keeping my feet warm.

Congratulations, you look like a fancy hobo.”

2. Brutal.

“A lot of Gen Z fashion is dressing like a boomer at a cook out.

Chunky shoes with mom jeans, the largest t shirt you can find, and a bucket hat??

Idk guess I’m old now, LOL.”

3. Unflattering.

“Not sure what fashion trends are hot at the moment in other countries or cities but here in Dublin, Ireland, cycling shorts are having a moment and they look hideous.

It’s mostly younger women, teenagers and women in their early 20s – the kind of people who have the figures to pull off such an unforgiving item of clothing…yet they don’t look good at all on any of them.

They wear them with heels mostly – all dressed up on the top half like they are going out clubbing then, on the bottom half, cycling shorts and heels.

I just do. not. get. it! It’s such an unflattering look and it also looks ridiculous.”

4. Still around!

“Still has to be guys with their pants falling down and their underwear showing.

How in the world did THAT ever become fashionable?”

5. They’re back!

“The 1980s is back.

I lived through it & didn’t like it.

Now I watch my 20 yr daughter loving it.”

6. You been dumpster diving?

“Wearing ripped clothes that cost you your whole salary but it looks like you borrowed them from a homeless person.”

7. Free advertising.

“Wearing a billboard.

For example I saw someone today in a bright red coca cola shirt, literally just a huge block of text with “coca cola”. Why do you pay money to purchase a shirt to advertise for someone?

They had a matching red laces and a purse so it’s not like they pulled some random promo shirt on a laundry day.”

8. Creepy.

“The kids clothes are hyper gendered before they have even gone through puberty and in many cases are smaller and slimmer fit for girls, s**ualizing them at as young as baby age.

Let’s let the kids dress like the mother loving kids that they are!!”

9. Where’s the back?

“Women’s sweaters that are completely normal in the front but the back is nonexistent.

Either a super deep v, or connected at the neck and wide open the rest of the way down.

Why would I choose a sweater, but want my entire back exposed???”

10. Think of your future!

“Excessive face tattoos.

Call me old, but since Trap music became a thing, the face tattoos seem to have exploded.”

11. Cheap knock-offs.

“Women’s sports apparel thats not just a smaller version of the men’s (i.e. smaller hockey jerseys), but a tight fake looking version.

Or the ones with weird colors or frigging rhinestones.”

12. Oh yuck.

“Sweaters with a hoodie but short sleeves.

They’re popular but I really don’t like them.

Why wear a sweater if you’re not going to cover your entire upper body?”

13. Come on, guys!

“I’m disappointed that at some point in the last 30 years, bright colors were suddenly not something guys wanted.

It’s so hard to find any clothes that aren’t grey, black or some muted color.

While women get to strut around in real yellows, pinks and blues, I’m over here wondering which shade of grey I should wear out to dinner.”

14. No middle ground.

“Women’s fashion is either ‘young teen, perfect body’ or ‘middle aged mum/office worker’.

As a 27 year old I find it SO difficult to find an outfit I like where I don’t look like I’m either dressed completely inappropriately or in something from my mom’s wardrobe!”

Do you really dislike some fashion trends?

If so, tell us all about it in the comments.

You Can Buy Jeans with Stains to Look Like You Peed Yourself

Just when I think I’ve seen everything, the internet throws something totally new at me.

I’m not sure I’ve been up on the latest trends since the 90s, and maybe not even then.

Did all kids wear ginormous t-shirts, or was it just me?

Anyway, buckle in, because apparently (supposedly?) there’s a new fashion trend in town: peeing your pants.

It seems like it started out as people just goofing around on TikTok using audio from the Adam Sandler movie Billy Madison where he tells some kids that it’s cool to pee your pants.

Then it turned into last year’s dumb new social media challenge with the hashtag #peeyourpantschallenge.

But people were bored. And stuck inside. So I think we can forgive them.

Whether it was moms working out:

Bored people everywhere wanted to get in on the acting action:

♬ Peeing your pants is the cooliest – TikToksSoundGuy

That’s how social media challenges go.

It was something to do for the set of people not interested in baking lockdown cakes or sourdough bread.

But when the movement went viral and started getting picked up by news outlets, it seems like some people took the TikTok goofiness a little too far.

A company called Wet Pants Denim launched a new clothing line with the tagline “Wet look, dry feel” selling–you guessed it–pre peed-on pants…

A post shared by Wet Pants Denim (@wetpantsdenim)

For blue jeans, the darkened pants could be stained with any substance, but for lighter pants they use an egg yolk yellow that would make me worry about your vitamin intake.

Not only that, but for customers in the U.S. who are eco-minded and don’t want to purchase new denim, for the low, low cost of $30, you can send them your current pants, and the company will stain those for you.

I mean I guess they could come in handy for people who routinely splash water on their lap.

Like I said, I’m not sure I understand high fashion, but this one seems like a swing and miss. What do you think? Beyond ridiculous, or are you ready to buy your own pair? Tell us in the comments.

Woman Asks if She’s Wrong For Wearing White as the Maid of Honor

I know I’m preaching to the choir, but I’m just gonna tell you one more time: it’s probably not a great idea to mess with a woman on their wedding day…or in the months leading up to it.

Just trust us on this one, okay?

But, people are gonna be people and this woman made what some folks would consider to be a huge error in judgment…or maybe not…

Check out this story from the “Am I The A**hole?” page on Reddit.

AITA for wearing white as Maid of Honor while my friend is “the Bride”?

“My best friend Joy (28F) is getting married next year to her long time partner. Recently she started wedding planning and asked me (29F) to be her maid of honor—we have been friends for nearly 20 years and needless to say I was super excited.

Joy has started planning, and it’s been incredibly stressful for her. I have tried my best to be as supportive and helpful where I can, going above and beyond (daily discussions, fielding unwieldy family members, acting a buffer sometimes). I am prefacing with this because the next part is frankly bonkers and I am having trouble processing.

Last Sunday, Joy and I met with some of our friends for lunch (we are all vaccinated at this point). Since it was the first time seeing friends in a while and we were going to a nice restaurant, I decided to dress up a little.

It was pretty hot over the weekend so I opted to wear an old, white linen dress to our gathering (one I have worn many times). I thought everything was totally fine, but I noticed Joy giving me strange looks at lunch and only talking in short responses with me. I brushed it off as stress and when we got up to say goodbye, Joy left in a rush.

When I got home, I was had a bunch of angry texts from Joy saying she was disappointed in me and couldn’t believe I would try to “dull her shine during this special time”. I was confused asked her to elaborate. Apparently she was furious that I had dared to wear white while she was the bride to be.

I was FLOORED. I apologized (kind of) stating that I was sorry she was so upset, but that I wasn’t sure how my wearing white to a casual friends hang was a slight on her being a bride, nor how it was taking attention away from her. She flipped out and called me all sorts of names, and said she has no idea how she could have picked such an unsupportive and attention-grabbing MOH.

I snapped a little and told her that while I respected she was getting married, that did not entitle her on a monopoly on the color white and that while her wedding was the most important thing going on in her life, it was not the most important thing going on in other peoples lives.

Now I am aware that a bride generally wears white to wedding related events and the guests should not, but this brunch was not wedding related in the slightest. I feel especially sad since I feel that I have gone out of my way to help, and our past friendship has been very calm and loving.

My friends are generally supportive of me (a few think I should have somehow had the foresight to see this—apparently psychic abilities are another MOH requirement I missed) but think I should just try to make peace since she is clearly under a lot of stress. I do feel a bit bad, especially about the comment about her wedding not being the most important thing in my life, but am not budging.

AITA?”

Oh, my…

Let’s see what folks on Reddit had to say about this.

This person said that, given the circumstances, this woman is not acting like a jerk.

At all.

Another reader said this is really a no-win situation for the woman and that she should just walk away.

This Reddit user said she should give the bride a chance to apologize and if she doesn’t, maybe it’s time to walk away.

And lastly, this person argued that the bride here is probably so overwhelmed with the planning of her wedding that she’s not really aware of how her behavior is affecting other people.

Good point.

Do you think this woman acted inappropriately?

We’d love to hear from you!
