1. Folk Yeah!

   

   The music video begins rather innocently: two pretty girls, a tall blonde with a guitar and a petite brunette with a ukulele, smile sweetly and sing an ode to blossoming romance. “And like can lead to like-like/And like-like can lead to looove,” they coo. “Sure as the stars above/I’d really like to fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.” Oh! But that’s as raunchy as it gets; the comedy folk duo, who go by the name Garfunkel & Oates, drop F-bombs and bon mots about life and love without shedding so much as a sweat- er vest. In their sardonic songs, Riki Lindhome (Garfunkel, left, 30) and Kate Micucci (Oates, 29) often poke fun at the pitfalls of dating, like one-night stands, “douche-bag- gy guys,” and third wheels (“It’s fi nally you and me and me and you/Just us…and your friend Steve”). “We get a lot of material from crazy dates,” admits Micucci.

2. The Unusuals

   

   Every gal needs a go-to vibe, and once you’ve found the one, why change it up? How about because even a sure thing can get dull after a while? This fresh crop of unique vibes offers new ways to get off, so I decided to see which ones were worth getting down with.

3. Dyer Straights

   

   Did you dirty up the toes of your white hose? Give your old tights new life with a DIY dye job. All you need are white tights (no more than 50 percent polyester), rubber bands, fabric dye (we used RIT), an old, large pot (you won’t want to use it for cooking again), and old tongs or a wire hanger.
