Nothing makes an already-tacky kitchen look worse than horrible lighting. That harsh glow and sterile feel of fluorescents make your warm and inviting home feel like the operating room at a morgue. Remember this, If you can find it in a morgue, it definitely doesn't belong in your home's kitchen. Fluorescent lighting isn't just ugly, it's also horrible for your eyes, so do yourself a favor and remove them as soon as you possibly can. 

 

Fluorescent Lights

Not to mention,  you better be careful when replacing those ridiculous bulbs...unless you're in the mood for an explosion! The fact is fluorescents just don't belong in a home - they're terrible! Swap that dusty old office lighting out for a nice and modern fixture that still provides adequate lighting over your work areas. Whatever you do, just don't replace it with those dumb Edison bulbs. Get something nice for once!

  • While attending the Grammys in February 2000, Jennifer Lopez stepped out in a green Versace dress that instantly became a phenomenon. The barely-there ensemble had a dramatically low cut that came below JLo’s belly button. It became such a talking point that it was Google’s most popular search query up to that point, and it spurred the company to include images into search results. It became the motivation for Google Images.
  • Paris Hilton not only lives in a mansion, she also built a doghouse mansion for her Chihuahua. It's 300 square feet and includes air conditioning and heating. It comes decked out with designer furniture, a chandelier, a pink paint job, second-floor balcony, and enclosed "yard." It's not enough for you to live in luxury. Your dog must, as well.

She says David Bowie was the inspiration behind the dress.
  • When Rihanna debuted her famous red locks in 2010 (around the same time she was featured on Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie"), she started a red-hair trend.
