I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Girl, on relationship after divorce, and omg I laughed 1000 occasions. “I’ve by no means been pursued this a lot in my life,” she mentioned. “Boys, they by no means appreciated me rising up. Within the ’90s, in highschool, guys, they weren’t into charismatic A cups.” These days she solely dates divorced dads as a result of “I need a man that’s been pre-yelled at.” So good.

With reference to readers’ winter outfits, London-based Sumaya despatched in a submission in the present day: “I wait all yr to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was thought of fairly old school, however now they’re well-liked with Kashmiris residing out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so completely satisfied. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with clothes, denims, coats, something. My son wears his with a hoodie and Uggs. And so they all have POCKETS!”
