Me and my bangs in happier times What possessed me to do this!? Why did I ever think that bangs would be a good idea? I’m never, ever doing this ever again. (Side note: If I had a dime for whenever I said that during this process I’d be a rich woman, LOL!) What the hell!? My leg hair, the hair on my big toe, my mustache, even MY CHIN — why does the hair grow so fast anywhere else except for where I actually want it to grow?? I must invest in a company that makes bobby pins, seeing...

Tabs is definitely a cat of the people, but he can’t deny that he has a taste for the finer things. When I think of Tabs, I think “luxury personified.” Like, he wears head-to-toe Tiffany jewelry just to walk downstairs and have gravy on a Tuesday. ADVERTISEMENT Sometimes on Sundays he likes to just sit around and quietly celebrate his fabulous fanciness, so he’ll ask me to light his favorite Tom Ford candle so that he may enjoy his jewels by candlelight. It’s much more romantic that way. ADVERTISEMENT He rarely shows the public his indulgent side, but he hopes...

When you’re well into your second decade of life, often you can’t help but look back at the cats, toddlers and humans you’ve known, the places you’ve been, the flowers you’ve sniffed, the collars you’ve rocked, and the makeup looks you’ve inspired. Call it a fall occupation retrospective, if you will. Tabs (and I) got a little emo today looking back at old pics from falls of yore. ADVERTISEMENT Fall has always been one of Tabs’ favorite times of year, and not just because the turkeys are plump and the lawn is extra green and tasty, but also because of...

Yay for Chanel Noir Pétrole waterproof Eye Liner! I’m also wearing the Chanel Codes Élégants quad on my eyes, Chanel Élégance Powder blush on my cheeks and hourglass girl Lip Stylo in Peacemaker Why, though? WHY?

ADVERTISEMENT Glossy, smoky perfection I recognize that it’s OTT to get this excited about eyeliners, seeing as there are...
