Slouching Is In Again

Have the starlets been forgetting their skim milk? As Trend de la Creme aptly points out, many are hunching over as if osteoporosis has set in 30 years early. Why is this? Is an unhealthy bone structure the new it item? Does the slouch really make your collarbones protrude that much more (this is why I believe they're doing it). Either way, it's not a good idea, and these ladies need to keep tabs on where their shoulders are at all times.

May we suggest the iPosture - a handy new device that detects when your body is slouching, emitting a series of subtle vibrations to let you know it's time to straighten up. The device can be worn three ways: as a necklace, attached to your bra strap, or adhered to your skin below the collarbone. I found myself hyperextending my back at first, but after a while, I relaxed and it definitely corrected me during long, hunched over hours in front of the computer.

no, good posture always looks better on everyone.

Slouching was never out. It has always gone hand in hand with a certain "I am too skinny to hold myself up" kind of look. Nice pics for impact, I might add. Made me feel like standing up a little straighter and eating a sandwich.

I don't think they can help it -- they're starving. Every time I see Sally Field on TV advertising an osteoporosis drug I remember that she's the first actress I ever heard rumored to have an eating disorder. All these waifs will have osteoporosis when they're middle-aged and they'll have way worse wrinkles than they need to have, too.
