TO ALL GIRLS !

I got this blog forwarded to me from a friend and so far have found it very entertaining and very beneficial. Below is a little "blib" from the blog's creator Debbie on the thought behind the blog. ENJOY!

From Debbie:
As a girl working in finance, a lot of my girlfriends are constantly asking me how much they should be saving, how they should be saving, how to address student loan or credit card debt, etc. I found myself wondering why magazines like Cosmopolitan and Glamour were educating women on fashion, fitness, eating well, sex, love, and relationships, yet they all somehow neglect to assist twenty-something women with regard to personal finances. And this is where my idea comes in.
I've created a website that's all about the empowerment of women through personal finance education. However, most twenty-something ladies are not intrigued (rightfully so) about the subject matter. My idea was that maybe, just maybe, if you spoke to women in terms and concepts (i.e., relationships, fashion, etc.) they readily identify with, they'll pay attention. Anyway, several focus groups and polls later (thanks to some very dear friends working in marketing and advertising), it actually freaking works!

A Girls Worst Nightmare

I need a new pair of jeans. Seems simple right?. I love to shop. But shopping for a pair of jeans last week totally took me down. If I had to change sexes for any reason, the ONLY reason I would want to be a man would be the ease of finding a pair of jeans.

Who in the world designed women's jeans to either be just one length, or ....'short', 'regular', 'long'? Who do these designers use to come up with the "one length fits all"! It's absurd! No matter what style jean I like, I am going to end up with a "skinny jean." When I get any style hemmed I always have to take out any curve the pants have at the bottom (or don't get them hemmed and wear "stripper" shoes everyday to the grocery store so I don't walk on the back!)

Why can't someone come up with women's jeans, sold like men's jeans - Waist size x length. It would make life so much easier for those of us that are vertically challenged!

At the end of the day, I walked away with two pair of jeans (neither of which I can wear right now with a flat pair of shoes without having to cuff them up) but... I did find some I like.

Thanks to those brands for making my day some what easier!!!
