Girls’ Night In
Sometimes I just need a Girls’ Night In. No testosterone allowed. No dressing up, no heels or makeup. There’s room in my life for a simple evening where the girls get together, rent some chick flicks, open a bottle or two of wine, grab a box of Kleenex, crawl into something really comfortable, like a comfy pj set from Addition Elle, and celebrate the intimacy of friendship with a good laugh or cry.

We find it cathartic to wallow in some fictional characters’ tragedy (Beaches) or realize that our boss is not so bad after all (The Devil Wears Prada, Nine to Five). Nice to know that you can find a knight in shining armour (Pretty Woman), chivalry is not dead (Kate & Leopold), and a perfect size 18 can beat out a perfect size 8 (Fried Green Tomatoes).
Watch & you will believe in the power of the community of women (The Color Purple, The Secret Life of Bees), and that men don’t really rule the world (Thelma & Louise), although they really think they do.
It’s refreshing to watch people moving in slow motion (Ghost) without getting blown up or shot down, or witness friends falling in love (When Harry Met Sally) instead of falling into bed.
Realizing your worth (The Joy Luck Club), taking a chance on love (Titanic, An Affair to Remember) or turning it down in order to honor your family and commitments (The Bridges of Madison County), powerful themes to ponder…what would YOU do?
Girls Night In is an opportunity to cry together (Love Story), laugh together (Bridget Jones’ Diary), enjoy fashion & great shoes together (Sex in the City) and drool over hot hot hot leading men (Dirty Dancing, Chocolate, Twilight) without upsetting the boys.
Chick Flicks rarely contain X rated scenes, bodily functions or sports. They focus instead on memorable love scenes (sometimes hot), stunning cinematography & hauntingly beautiful music.

Which movies are on your top ten Chick Flick list? I’d love some suggestions before my next Girls Night IN, care to share?
Along with swallowing goldfish & cramming all your friends into a phone booth, panty raids are no longer the cool collegiate prank du jour.
The new millennium Panty Raid involves picking up colorful, fun prints – from floral to plaids – in your preferred panty style. Addition Elle, the plus size experts and home of the Perfect Fit Pants, have an affordable assortment of bottoms – for every bottom.
You will find full figure thongs, high cuts, low rise and full briefs and boxers in basic and fashion prints. You can even start a new trend, matching Camisole Raids!
