Shallon Online The official site of author, blogger and star of MTV's hit "Downtown Girls", Shallon Lester! 2011-05-20T17:19:13Z http://shallononline.com/feed/atom/ WordPress shallon <![CDATA[FINAL FANTASY]]> http://shallononline.com/?p=772 2011-05-20T17:19:13Z 2011-05-20T16:12:32Z Yesssss! The final copies of Exes and Ohs just arrived in my hot little hands! It’s crazy to see it all pretty and bound and shiny…like an actual book. People keep saying “Oh you must be so excited and happy!” and…I am but…I’m also really nervous. Obviously because I want the book to do well but also because I poured my heart into it, writing about life and friends and humiliation and heartbreak. It opens you up to a lot more criticism and judgment than if you wrote, say, an 8th grade social studies text book.

For you Harry Potter fans, this book is my horcrux.

 

So if you find it, please don’t stab it with a basilisk fang. That’s just a waste of paper.

In other news, YES I’m definitely having a book party! So if you’re in NYC on Wednesday June 8, come on down to the Hotel Chantelle where I’ll be signing (and selling) books and celebrating. More details to come…XOXO

Oh John. You had me at “kick, ball change.”

But in person? Her figure is unbelievable. Literally, the only word that sprang to mind was “impossible.” She has huge boobs and then this impossibly tiny waist but still a curvy booty.

Leo, on the other hand, is a sparrow-chested little larvae of a man, whose face is an unsettling mix of old and young, like Benjamin Button. Honestly, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if five years from now we find in a playpen demanding to watch Matlock.

Pfft just look at him, clearly running away from that beefier gentleman behind him, flapping those spindly little arms like a helpless penguin.

My point in all this is: Leo was retarded to break up with Bar. I mean sure, her name is Bar and that’s awkward but hey, names can be chanced. I wouldn’t care if my name was Adolf as long as I had those boobs bolted to my chest.

Leo, you’ve made a big mistake. Take some HGH and try to get her back. Trust me.

Choose My Outfit for the Pink & Black Tie Gala!]]> http://shallononline.com/?p=753 2011-05-12T17:57:38Z 2011-05-12T17:57:38Z Tonight I’m going to the always wonderful Pink & Black Tie gala hosted by my BFFFFF Stacy London from What Not to Wear. The event benefits breast cancer research and is always a glitteringly good time. But dressing for this event is hard because you have to wear something pink and/or black. So here are my choices:

 

1. Ted Baker’s Body Con dress

It has a slightly Kardashian vibe since it’s super tight and has strong shoulders. I like it but I’m wondering if it’s too casual?

 

2. Lipy’s Pleated Sweetheart mini

This actually isn’t the exact dress; for some reason I can’t find a pic of it anywhere. But it’s pretty similar. Mine just has more muted colors with a more lavender tone.

 

 

Help me choose!! Cast your vote in the comments section or on Twitter and also help me figure out how to wear my hair. Eeek!

She’s, like, 18–how did her parents name her that in the 90s? Or whenever she was born, I can’t really do much math.

Anyway, Deb and I rocked the same BCBG dress during recent event–me at Amy’s glittering wedding and Debby at the premiere of Prom, some new Disney movie with too much angst and not enough sex. Take a look at both of us and cast your vote for the best dressed!

Ever.]]> http://shallononline.com/?p=737 2011-04-27T21:13:17Z 2011-04-27T20:39:26Z Some of you loudly disagreed with my recent tweet that no man, ever, should wear jean shorts. EVER. So fine, in the interest of scientific proof, here are the only three type of jorts that exists and why you should avoid them at all costs.

1. The Hipster Jort

The only thing worse than a Brooklynite in the winter is a Brooklynite in the summer, when their lack of deodorant/good taste become woefully apparent. Guys, if you want to have sex with someone besides a fat girl wearing a floral romper with some Etsy-esque haircut, you’ll avoid pretty much everything going on in this picture, from the gaylord jorts to the rapey facial hair.

 

2. The “I’m a Club Promoter” Jort

Notice how the spindly legs protruding out of these things are white. Can’t you just picture these contraptions on a guy who calls himself Vanilla Thunder and has cornrows and a dodgy “soul patch”? These hideous jorts courtesy of the king of hideous, Ed Hardy. I think a dose of roofies come free with each pair you buy.

 

3. The Pedo-Jort

By all means, wear micro-jorts this summer. But don’t come cryin’ to me when your life ends up as a template for an episode of Law & Order: SVU.

but…

Is it just me or do her eyes not look purple?


I mean…right? They look blue, don’t they? Maybe I’m taking this purple thing a little too literally. I see some people have described them as violet, which to me has always looked like a shade of blue, not purple. If that’s the case, then I guess this pic (assuming it’s not photoshopped to high heaven) makes a pretty good case for violet eyes:

In any case, she was stunning. Have you seen her movies and actually looked at the size of her waist?? My cocker spaniel had more girth! I guess that’s kind of a Lester trait…

I’m reasonably certain that every single one of you reading this has a much better ass then an Kate Moss, at least judging by her latest trip down the Louis Vuitton runway.

The big hullabaloo about the show wasn’t that it looks like someone let the air out of her behind, it was that she was–gasp!–smoking as she strutted the runway. Um, is this Victorian London? People smoke. Yes, even women. Some women can vote and own land too.

I know right, what is the world coming to?

My grandmother, bless her, gave me one such catalog because…?? I have no idea. Perhaps deep down she knows it’ll be delightful fodder for this blog. If so, Gigi, I thank you.

Prepare to be delighted at the incredible bounty of crap housed within this 68-page Smithsonian of uselessness!

How many times have you went to pee and thought, “Yeah but where are the sea horses?”

this phrase is – Repeated – through the catalog

 

Et tu, Toot-ti?
Let’s be honest; it’s not really about fishing or dogs at all, is it Rob?
For the alcoholic Alzheimer patient who has everything
Ok fine I kind of want this
Because they may take your life, but they will never take your soggy ass home from the beach if you keep getting sand on their friggin’ car seats.
