Flying Pasties Protect Your Privates From Airport Security

Amelia McDonell-ParryJuly 20, 2010 //

Flying somewhere this weekend? Don’t forget your pasties! Many airports are now using full-body scanners which give bored airport security officers a lot to look at, including hidden weapons and drugs — and your naughty bits. That’s why a company called Flying Pasties is selling specially designed orange stickers for your nipples and pubic area, so that security can still do their job without being able to deduce the size of your areola or your preferred pubic hair shape. I’ve yet to fly through one of the airports with these fancy full-body scanners, but I’m not modest and would never bother to put on special pasties so that a pervy security officer couldn’t get a glimpse of my strawberry kisses. Besides, maybe showing a little nip will decrease the chance of having my lotion confiscated. [Flying Pasties via Jaunted] Keep reading »

Pink Wears Long Barbie Hair

Wow, Pink is still wearing the same old scandalous pastie costume that we spotted on her earlier this fall and (halfheartedly tried to defend). Only now, she’s added a long, blonde wig that oddly makes her look like your run-of-the-mill Hollywood blonde. Crazy, right? [Daily Mail] Keep reading »

The Fashion Peacekeepers: Pink

Erin FlahertySeptember 24, 2009 //

Sometimes we feel like Us Weekly‘s “The Fashion Police” and other similar style critics can be a tad harsh. Also, they tend to have these really boring, conservative styles and we have to wonder what their real fashion credentials are. (Case in point: US Weekly‘s “Top Cops” include random comedian Stefanie Novik and Chet Cannon of “The Real World, Brooklyn.” When did they ever go to design school!?) The Fashion Peacekeepers are here to say, hey, can’t everyone’s styles just get along?

Pink has a fierce new trapeze act in her new show (here in L.A.), and, on one hand, she is simply attempting to rock a trend that is so hot right now: After all, celebs just love to wear pasties! Rihanna does a great job with her Nippies, but as much as we look at the positives here, we’re afraid we just can’t help you out Pink. If you get arrested, don’t come crying to us to bail you out. (Oh wait, here’s another look on the bright side: By outfitting your own breast with a heart shape, you’ve saved us precious minutes in the day so we don’t have to Photoshop one on top of this pic. Thanks!) Keep reading »

Topless Rihanna Does Extreme Couture

Susannah BreslinSeptember 1, 2009 //

Dayum, girl! Here’s a first look at Rihanna‘s much-hyped layout for Vogue Italia shot by Steven Klein: “Extreme Couture.” Last week, we showed you the cover. Now, we’ve got the spread. Shot in black, white, and platinum, with a lone streak of turquoise, these are some of the boldest, most beautiful pics of Rihanna that we’ve seen thus far. After the jump, more images, and RiRi rocks the pasties. [Fashion Copious] Keep reading »

Nothing Comes Between Rihanna And Her Nippies

Erin FlahertyJuly 31, 2009 //

Yesterday, Catherine polled readers about this odd see-through shirt trend (and according to the results, over half of you are anti-), but what we failed to mention is that Rihanna is not only the ringleader of this scary mid-’90′s throwback, she’s by far the most in your face about it as well. Witness this handy montage of Nippies that she shamelessly paraded all over downtown New York. Moving on to a more personal note, unless you travel with an entourage and bodyguards and need to wear crazy getups to get in the tabloids because that’s part of the fame game (mouthful!), I am not feeling this look for real life. However! Must confess here and now that I love the plain, flesh-colored Nippies and I wear them all the freakin’ time with tank tops and strapless dresses and low v-necks and backless-es and everything but see-through shirts. Anyone else actually try them? Or actually like the look of glitter pasties underneath a $5,000 mesh top? Discuss! Keep reading »

Good Deed, Bad Girl

SimchaMarch 5, 2008 //

When I recently purged my closet and wanted to donate some of my things to charity, I went to the closest drop-off center, a Salvation Army (also one of world’s largest Christian organizations). The thing is, it’s hard to tell black trash bags apart and I accidentally donated some personal items…including my collection of handmade pasties. Oopsies! When I realized my mistake, I went back to reclaim the bag before a sweet old church lady exposed my tassel twirling sins. Lucky for me, a nice grandpa-like fellow volunteered to take me to look for my stuff and I thought I could manage to keep him from my sequined secrets. After a desperate dumpster dive, I found the bag, but it was strangely empty. “Ooooooh, that bag,” the man said, as if he never expected me to be the tart with the talented rack. “Yeah, some of the ladies found it yesterday and we threw the stuff out because, well…we wouldn’t put out that kind of item. After all, this is a place of God.” Blushing, I tried to recover by joking, “Oh, not even for women who want to entertain their husbands?” Apparently, that wasn’t his kind of entertainment….although he did recognize that they were pasties. So anyway, if you ever are donating clothing to your local S.A., just make sure the items are bigger than one-inch in diameter. [Salvation Army] Keep reading »
