Practically any woman can relate to this scenario: you're in a clothing store and you find a pair of jeans you like. Only thing is, when you try them on, they're tight in one area and too loose in another. And when you find another size, the same thing happens. What gives? This fascinating Tumblr thread explains why brands intentionally make arbitrary clothing sizes and why celebrities always look like their clothes fit perfectly in every single photo!

Have you been itching for some content that has nothing to do with coronavirus? We've got you covered. We've covered fashion fails before, but these are extra spicy. While we appreciate the humor in these questionable designs, we've got to wonder if anyone was penalized for some of the raunchier mistakes. 

Seventeen-year-old Billie Eilish, arguably the voice of Generation Z, has positively exploded onto the pop music scene over the last year with hits like Bad Guy and Bury a Friend. Her fanbase has proved itself to be somewhat on the edgy side, and by "edgy" we mean along the lines of "I'm 14 and this is deep."

We just want to clarify that we have nothing against Billie Eilish or her music at all - we're mainly here to poke some fun at her overly dramatic fans and her amusingly baggy wardrobe.

Fun fact: her middle name is Pirate.

There's a lot of talk about how coronavirus has made the world feel like the apocalypse. But the media has not prepared us for the sartorial reality of the damn thing. In movies like Mad Max and television, our tough heroes are donning leather, studs, and toting semi-automatic rifles. Those of us working from home have to fight this battle in our pajamas and slippers. The juxtaposition has inspired a lot of memes on Instagram, Reddit and Twitter - and they're pretty damn funny. 

First they released the Popeye's clothing line, and we did not speak out. Then they released the KFC Crocs, and we did not speak out. Supreme just announced an incredibly cringeworthy Oreo collaboration, and we are definitely speaking out. 

Cult Streetwear giants Supreme announced the collaboration yesterday and people are roasting the branded cookies to no end. While it's easy to joke about the red Oreos costing hundreds of dollars, a package of three will run a dumb skater a mere $8. This seems reasonable until you realize this sum can also buy you a shot and a beer down the street from their Williamsburg, Brooklyn store. If you want the cookies, you'll have to line up with other Supreme enthusiasts on February 20th. We'd rather stay inside and enjoy all the jokes people are cracking on Twitter. 

Pepple really freak out about shoes. They're used as symbols of status (Louboutins) and are sold for exorbitant amounts of money. They garner praise for their ethics (Toms) and ridicule for their aesthetics (Crocs). But we all need to wear them. So it would make sense that there are numerous cursed and weirdo memes involving footwear. And we're happy to present them to you in one convenient place.

The American Music Awards happened last night, and while Shania Twain rapping was a highlight, Lizzo's insanely small purse stole our hearts - sartorially and otherwise. Pop star Lizzo, who performed at the awards show for the first time, proudly showed off the minuscule accessory, announcing that the Valentino "purse" was custom-made, and that there are only three in the world. While it doesn't seem like the most practical gear, the purse has proved itself to be extremely memeable, with people on Twitter using photos Lizzo and her bag to make some seriously relatable jokes. Here are our favorite memes so far. 

We've already done a gallery full of pocket memes, but we're so passionate about this topic that we just had to compile another one. That's right, it's a lucky day for anyone (namely the ladies) who's sick and tired of carrying a clunky purse around just to store a damn cell phone and wallet!

Pockets are a wonderful thing that are useful to literally every single human on planet earth. When are clothing brands going to understand that putting adequate pockets on women's pants would sell waaaay more products?! Let's get on it! We're waiting! Anyway, please enjoy these memes about pockets that might enrage all the ladies out there.
