Continuing the Festivities
Are you like me and still wish Christmas was here? I love the magic of the holiday season and it ends far too soon. I was perusing the New York Times’ Style section and stumbled upon Bill Cunningham’s On the Street column featuring the festive participants of SantaCon. The annual event held in New York City features over 5,000 people dressed in their holiday best parading around NYC and having...

Stay Cozy and Colorful this Season!
By Lauren Monser
Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean that you can’t warm up your wardrobe with some color. I’m never one to shy away from color and bright, cheery clothing and accessories are a must!

Winter's Favorite Cozy Accessory: the Scarf
By Grace Pulliam; Grace & Beauty
Some women collect shoes; others collect bags. I collect scarves.
A few summers ago, I participated in a study abroad trip in Central Europe. Sure, we were there to study communications and propaganda, but I couldn’t help being completely consumed by European fashion. (One of our academic tasks was to go and quietly observe the public and whilst...

Rock Out this NYE
New Year’s Eve is fast approaching and I’ve been thinking about making some New Year’s resolutions. I think it’s time to change up my style and be a bit more daring with my fashion choices. My style right now is cute and girly, but pretty safe. I need to amp up my style and I can’t think of better way to bring some rocker flair to my wardrobe than by kicking off the...

Ring In The New Year In Style
BY: JESSICA SURBAUGH
For New Year’s Eve this year, I’m way into the gold and/or black color scheme. I’m a total neutrals gal, so I’ve been sticking to black (generally throwing in some sheer or a sequin or two) for the past few years. To me, gold and black is super classy yet can be totally sexy when worn the right way.
This NYE is also one of those times when I’m...

No Buyer's Remorse: NYE Look for Less
When I was seventeen, my mother let me host a NYE party at my house. I told my mother I invited ten close friends; around forty people showed up, including a random substitute teacher (…but that’s another story). Of course, I felt like my outfit had to be perfect, and I ended up spending all my Christmas money on an expensive, sparkly dress—in my defense, the dress was totally...

With 2012 quickly approaching and all the talk of what this daunting year will bring forward, I can’t help but want my New Year’s attire to scream, “I’m ready for 2012 and I’m ready to ring in 2012 in style!” Who doesn’t want to embody that this month? (And in case the world does end, I want to be sure I looked impeccable on my way out…)

Fashion Forward Friends
Dear Santa,
I have a really long list of friends that I need to get things for. There are some of them, (we all have them) that are the “fashion forward” friends that I really don’t know what to get for. My ultimate fear is always, that it gets exchanged or I get a fake “aww, well thanks!” So, Santa I write to you to help me with my fashionable friend this holiday season.

Shine this Holiday Season!
Glitter and embellishments have been all the rage this holiday season. Wearing embellished pieces requires moderation; dripping in sequins from head to toe might result in a obnoxious disco ball effect. When styled appropriately, sparkly accents can add an edge of elegance and excitement to any outfit. Ranging from luxurious to very affordable, here are my top bedazzled accessories for...

I’ve been thinking about what I want for Christmas and there’s only one thing that comes to mind: accessories! I’ll have to write a letter to Santa and ask him to bring me something chic for Christmas.
Dear Santa,
For Christmas this year, I want to brighten up my wardrobe with some...
