    The true definition of Hat HairEver heard of a  face-kini? Neither had I ... 'til a few days ago. It's basically a bikini, but for your face, and this mask is all the rage in coastal parts of China. Yup, definitely not making this up, folks. Though it seems a little silly, the 'kini cover-up is the Shandong province's answer to sunburn. Women wear it to keep away those hot rays. Clever.

    Buuutttt it's also pretty creepy. Ok, like really freakin' creepy. Don't get me wrong -- I'm all for proper sun protection -- but this? Too far. How would you recognize friends? Your child? And doesn't it get super HOT up under there?

    My fellow Americans, we're victim to the weird accessory craze too. It's, like, home of the free, land of the silliest head gear. Our reigning leader? Lady Gaga.

    When NBC televised the now infamous nip-slip moment, I wasn't really surprised. First of all, it's live television, and second of all, we're watching women tread water, score goals, and fight off their opponents as they go for the gold -- that's no easy feat. When you are working that hard, wardrobe malfunctions are bound to happen. I repeat: wardrobe malfunctions happen. All. The. Time. To everyone. And it's not just happening in London for the 2012 Summer Games. It's happened at Winter Games, past Summer Games, and to us common folk. Granted, you and I aren't walking around with 6.2 million peeps tuning in to see our every move, but still, they happen.

    As cringe-worthy as they can be, it's a reminder that even our favorite elite athletes are just like us. Basically, Olympians are not exempt from a few embarrassing moments. And it just makes us love y'all a helluva lot more. 

    Let's take a look at six of the biggest wardrobe malfunctions of the Games past and present, shall we?

    Jean skirts. The most hideous, heinous fashion faux pas of the '90s lives on, defying all logic. Have YOU seen anyone above the age of 18 rocking the terrible, tear-jerking trend? Yeah ... didn't think so. Even fashion houses have taken a hint and dialed back on the once-was, never-will-be-again trend.  And with all the fun, floral, bodycon, maxi, and high-low skirt styles hitting the mark this season, it's no wonder denim's days are numbered.

    I say good riddance to you, ill-fitting, frayed, and unflattering jean skirts. May you rot in the perils of bad fashion purgatory for all the years of your chambray life. May we never see your bad style on an upward swing ever again. OK, maybe a little harsh. Whatever. Point is, I'm glad to see the fashion go and ready to welcome what's come in its place: Fashionable, feminine, retro, slimming skirts. Aw sheeeeeet mane.

    Here's a sneak peek at five of these hot skirts. Go on and have a look.

    When it comes to business casual, it's a definite do for me. First off: who has the budget for a business professional wardrobe? (Be honest, 'cause I sure as hell DON'T.) And secondly, I'm more than happy to be seated in front of my computer all day in an outfit that's comfortable -- pretty sure I work better that way anyway. But there's a way to wear the look well and then there's a way to wear it that just ruins it for the rest of us. Like ... really? Your pajama shirt? To the office? There's nothing more irksome than short shorts, ripped shorts, spandex shorts making their ugly way into the office. Those are mistakes no woman should make.

    Not sure about which thigh-baring looks to avoid? May I present you with the 6 worst ways to wear shorts in the office. You can't say I didn't warn you ...

    I give celebs little leeway when it comes to their makeup. If you're paying a professional to doll you up and put you together, you should look flawless on every red carpet, amirite or amirite? It's scary to see our favorite stars photographed looking totally disheveled. We're used to their normal radiant glow, so it's disturbing when we catch them looking like a hot mess.

    Point is, celebrities hold themselves to a higher beauty standard since they're flying to Paris for a new bronzer or headed to a private retreat where they soak themselves in buttermilk for 10 days. They're given privileges we aren't. Hell, going to Walmart in search of a new mascara is a holiday treat for me -- a 10-day buttermilk-soak-cleanse-detox-purifying diet would be the chance of a lifetime.

    I'm sure plenty of stars weren't even aware of how bad they looked. But folks, you've got to see these 5 awesomely bad makeup fails firsthand. Proceed with caution ...

    'Tis the season of stems, sandals, and stilettos, but you know what I just hate about the summer? All those leg workouts I wish I did.

    While I should've been in the gym workin' on my fitness all winter long, I was in the kitchen, snacking on cookies, cannolis & cupcakes -- and now instead of happily showing off my lean legs, I'm worried everyone is going to notice (gulp) ... my cankles.

    Oh, cankles. AKA calves that don't naturally thin out at your ankles .. AKA 'fat' ankles. Eek! I'll admit, it's not a common fashion faux paus, but for me, it's a big worry. I have muscular legs so summer always comes with anxiety for me. Go on & add in strappy summer sandals and you see my fears now, don'tya?

    Most fashionistas avoid the ankle strap like the bubonic plague, but I'm all for throwing caution to the wind -- and you should too. 

    Check out these seven ankle straps to shop for that'll give you long and lean legs:

    Sorry, Annie, but it turns out in Hollywood, you're always fully dressed without a smile. Victoria Beckham only smiles about once a year -- for good reason -- but Angelina Jolie and Katie Holmes are guilty of ditching the big grin for a come-hither glare, too. Secret rumor has it they sold their teeth to the Tooth Factory in upstate Michigan, where lots of creepy research is taking place ... but no one has yet to confirm. Just kidding. But really, haven't you ever wondered why they're always on the red carpet -- actually every carpet -- sans smile?

    Okay, fine, I'll tell you why, but I guarantee you're not gonna like it: Their smiles are AWFUL. Bad. Unflattering. Awkward. So ugly they oogly.

    Oh good god my eyes. I didn't really want to see Sharon's stones, but now I can't unsee them. That's right, Sharon Stone decided to go out to dinner in Paris wearing a sheer boatneck sweater. Even though the top eighth of sweater was opaque, it wasn't enough to cover her boobs. You could pretty much see everything. And by everything, I mean a 54-year-old nipple.

    Perhaps Sharon mistook the City of Lights to be the City of Headlights because, wow, I'm blinded by her breasts.

    Oh, first dates. They're tough. Everything NEEDS to be perfect -- the guy, the restaurant, the meal, the post-dinner stroll, and of course, the  outfit. Duh!

    Getting dressed daily is a struggle for me -- so a flawless outfit for a memorable night (and hopefully a second date!) requires A LOT of attention, ya know?

    Before a waltz with any potential new beau, I put every blouse, dress, and shoe through the ultimate grueling test: would I wear this on the town on a date with Will Smith? George Clooney? Ryan Gosling? Or what about McDreamy himself, Patrick Dempsey? Would this top absolutely woo for a night of wining and dining perfection?

    Yes, I've had a few not so fashionable first impressions, but I've learned from my mistakes. Here are the eight biggest first date style blunders you should never, ever make. I know. I've made them all!

    Spoiler alert! The Glee season finale, "Goodbye," is fast approaching! Like TONIGHT, people!

    But, oh, wait, you knew that already. Right. Well, they won nationals, Rachel & Finn found love while others lost loves, Coach Sylvester overdosed on gummies, Quinn survived a car accident, they made it through prom and anti-prom, the entire crew sang for Whitney Houston, and they did it all with almost impeccable style.

    Everything about this past season of Glee had a gleek jumping for joy -- except the really bad fashion choices. So before Glee Season 4 begins and some of our favorites get ready for graduation, let's vow to never, ever make these kind of mistakes ever again.

    You hear me, McKinley High?

    Are you as excited as we are for the season finale of Glee?
