Vintage Bad Hair Day

Or, from the looks of those bangs, vintage Bad Hair Month.

Things to do with a Thong

Back in 2009, Cosmo ran a typically hard-hitting piece titled "Fun Little Tricks Guys Love" which effectively beat Readymade at its own game by suggesting that women repurpose their thong underwear into a ponytail tie in order to get things cooking in the bedroom. (You see, straight men are apparently so sensitive to the presence of thong underwear in a room that they can be influenced by its intrinsic powers even as it serves a completely unsexy, transmogrified function like hair collection! Whoa!) Here are five more ways to repurpose your thongs for a successful Date Night, Cosmo-style:

5. Sexy Headband!

4. Sexy Bracelet!

3. Sexy Necklace!

2. Sexy Ring!

1. Sexy Tourniquet!

When Bad 80s Hair Accessories Happen to Good People

So surely you're heard by now about last week's international incident involving Hillary Clinton, a cheap plastic jaw clip and what must be the warring brain cells of a few right wing pundits with very little actual work to do. As the photos above suggest, Our Lady of the Unfortunate Pantsuit (i.e., Hillary Clinton) didn't make the wisest executive decision when she pulled her hair into a formal mullet for her appearance at the U.N. earlier this month, but whether that styling error warranted the excessive scrutiny that ultimately befell it is an entirely different matter. We here at Huzzah! have a loose moratorium on posts discussing the fashion of female political figures for reasons noted here, but we are curious to know your thoughts on ClipGate '10.

Was this fashion faux pas politically egregious enough to merit mention in the press, or did it merely help highlight just how much more work has yet to be done if men and women are to ever truly be equal--within and beyond politics?

Pictured Above: A little reminder that male politicians are not immune to public scrutiny of their appearance. Nixon is said to have lost the televised 1960 presidential debate with John F. Kennedy Jr. because of his excessive sweating and tired appearance--a fate avoided by Kennedy thanks to pancake makeup that made him appear rested, youthful and calm on camera. By the 1968 presidential election, Nixon had learned his lesson and was caking it on like a drag queen at a MAC counter.

What Hath Paul McCartney Wrought?

I blame Paul McCartney for Bieber Mania. I used to blame Zac Efron, but now I recognize The Bieb's unintentionally parodic mop for what it truly is: but one element stolen by tween svenghali Usher from The Beatles' pop music playbook.

Too bad Usher failed to read the chapters on charisma and basic language skills.

Dear Tavi

(Just something to keep in mind.)

Love,

Oh What A Difference A Decade Makes

The 1960s were very kind to Twiggy.

The 1970s...

...not so much.
