Hello, High Wire Woman and welcome to “What's Up Wednesday” with yours truly, Rosanna Berardi!
So “What's Up Wednesday?” What is this? Well, I'm gonna share a lot of really fun, cool, informative, professional things, newsworthy things, fashion things, things you need to know that you might not know about.
So up first, Tilly Norwood. Who's that? Tilly Norwood? Never heard of her. You will. She's the first AI actress taking Hollywood by storm. AI generated giving interviews, red carpet photos, film clips. She actually assigned to a virtual talent agency and Hollywood's fighting over her and the studios are. Hmm. An actress that doesn't storm offset show up late, demand weird things in contract. Tilly Norwood, this might be the wave of the future.
What else is going on? Well, the New York Times says, stop collecting labubus, and people are collecting SCGs for a nail girlies. Semi cured gel strips. Not that interesting of a name, but people are saying it transforms manicures and allows you to do them at home in 20 minutes without the pain and suffering of gel nails. Now, you know, you gotta get the gel polish, put it under the thing, it looks great. It dries immediately, but then you gotta get 'em scraped off. Well, apparently these SCGs are made in Korea. There are nail strips. You can cure them. They look like gel, but you don't have to scrape them off. They just peel right off. SCG, stop collecting labubus. Maybe that's something you'll be interested in, get you in and out.
This one's near and dear to my heart. The FDA, those people for the last 20 years on estrogen boxes that so many women can benefit from. There's been a black box warning saying, this will cause cancer. Don't take it and have scared the bejesus out of women. Well, guess what? Some powerhouse physicians, OB GYNs. Urologist menopause specialist appeared before the FDA in July. I'll tell you if you have a minute or if you can't sleep, it's fascinating testimony before the FDA in July saying, “This study that this warning is based on from 20 years ago is garbage. Please remove it.”. And guess what? The FDA said it's likely to be removed. This. Year, you guys, estrogen, menopause, really important things. We need this stuff. And finally, the FDA is listening to women.
Now, if you're like me, you go to Amazon for everything. And if you're also like me, you've noticed that everything at the grocery store cost $400. Seriously? When did a loaf of bread become seven bucks? Anyway, Amazon hears you, sees you and now has a $5 grocery line. They have a new under $5 grocery section, snacks, frozen foods, pantry staples. You can get them if you're a Prime member. They're trying to compete with Walmart and target and keep prices low on groceries. Try it out. I use Amazon for a lot of my shelf stable grocery supplies, like toilet paper and Kleenex. Maybe you can score a deal or two.
And finally, if you're like me, you collect black pants for a living. I'm a working professional. I'm an attorney. What's my go-to outfit? Black pants, a black tank, and maybe a blazer, a top, a scarf. Anyway, I found the perfect black pants and I bought three pair of them yesterday through my friends at Chico's. They are called the Travelers Collection. Now they are made of this fabric that's really loose. Here's the number-one reason you should buy it, elastic waistband! You can crumple 'em up in a ball. They do not need to be ironed. They are so comfortable. I have a pair on now. You can dress them up. For a party, dress them down with your denim jacket and some cool Sambas. Chico's Travelers Collection.
That's “What's up Wednesday”. Until next Wednesday, stay on that high wire.
