It has come to my attention that, as a college senior, I am going to be an adult professional type person very soon. This is exciting, yes, but also frightening. Mostly because I am supposed to be going on my first few medical school interviews in a couple weeks and I just realized that none of the clothing that I currently own is at all appropriate for my future. I preface the rest of this by saying that I am…
I’ve had strong feelings about personal style since age three. Around that time, a relative bought me a small, white t-shirt emblazoned with a bunny. If I remember correctly, there was nothing remarkable about it, but apparently my younger self valued simplicity. I decided I wanted to wear the shirt every single day, and if either of my parents denied me this request (as clothes, especially those worn by toddlers, require frequent washings), I screamed – often to the point…
Since everyone is trying to meet deadlines before the school year ends, I decided to keep this blog post short and sweet! Hopefully the things I show you will give you the tiny push you need to keep going. 1. Cute French Bulldog Puppy Argues Bedtime To be honest, I am a one-puppy (golden retrievers) kind of gal, but this baby French bulldog is so precious that it will lift anyone’s spirits. It actually listens to its owner!!! 2. Browsing Pinterest Humor …
I sometimes—more like all the time—find myself wanting to try something new. It’s usually a new hairstyle that I want to try, which isn’t always a good thing. Recently, I have been trying out floral patterns. I know, I am pretty late in the game but because florals and summer go together, I decided to try it. By the way, aren’t you excited and relieved that warm weather is finally coming?! So, back to what I was saying: over the…
I’m assuming all of the Oscars 2013 attendees read my article from last year, because they slightly stepped it up a notch this year. In general, I wasn’t too disappointed by the fashion turnout this year, but then again, I wasn’t drooling over anyone’s dress either. To be honest, I think certain celebrities need to stop being invited to the Oscars because I feel like each year they look like they try less in choosing their outfit. Maybe it is…
Lately I’ve been obsessing over a couple of things that are too good to not share! ★ Navy Nail Polish: Put the black on hold and put on the navy! After seeing everyone on the street wearing the same color on their nails, I was determined to find something that will make me uniquely posh. Navy is pretty similar to black, depending on how dark you wish to go, so it’s the perfect transition! OPI : Roadhouse Blues …
Welcome to the second semester, everyone! I’ve decided to dedicate this post to what I recently had to figure out: what to wear in front of prospective/current bosses. This is never an easy decision, considering that you’re trying to dress to impress. I mean, let’s face it, people do judge you by the outfit you are wearing (what else are those up-and-down eye movements for?). The clothes you should wear in a professional setting depend on the specific atmosphere of a job. For example: In finance/business related fields, the attire is…
Unfortunately, everyone is now swamped with finals, papers, projects. But remember, our much-needed vacation is coming soon! I know it seems so far away, but it’s coming in only two weeks. Also remember that the holidays are coming, which means that it’s time to start thinking about gifts for your friends and family. Here is a “to-do” list of what I will be (and everyone else should be) doing during winter break: Sleep. This is something that I will be doing a lot for…
**SPOILER ALERT** I spent my Thursday night at the premiere of the new movie Catching Fire. It was so worth the bad seats, the lack of sleep that ensued, and the unconscious look that I had in class the next day. I didn’t too much enjoy the first movie, but the second transformed me into a huge fan. Everything in the sequel was way better than in the first film—the sceneries, the characters, the plot and, of course, the fashion. Katniss’ Hair First off, let’s…
I always wonder where fashion will take us in the upcoming years. This thought scares me more than it excites me. The fashion route that we seem to be taking is wearing less and less clothing. Truly ponder this theory for a moment: What has been in fashion lately? Chiffon everything (shirts, skirts, underwear–all of it is chiffon), bandeaus, bra-lets, etc. These articles of clothing expose a lot. Trust me, I’m guilty of wearing some of these items, but if…
