Louboutin’s 8-INCH Ballet Heels and 12 More Pairs of the Most Uncomfortable Shoes EVER
I know it’s all about balance and distributing your weight evenly between the ball of your foot and your heel, but how the hell are you supposed to even attempt to do that in Louboutin’s new 8-inch ballet heels? Those shoes don’t even have a place to put the ball of your foot!

Hot or Hot Mess: Diane Kruger in Alessandra Rich at a Charity Gala in Paris
One of the things I like about writing this style column is that it allows me to fully embrace my general indecision and fickleness. It lets me avoid fully committing to liking or disliking something and leaving the final call up to you guys. This week is yet another outfit that I am completely on the fence about again.
Potter Fans, set your DVR for July 11th at 8PM!
Remember back in 2001 when Warner Bros. started production on the Harry Potter and Sorcerer’s Stone? 10 years later, the Potter films have become the most successful movie franchise ever and “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II” is easily the most anticipated movie of this year.
Welcome to the Real World: The Fine Line of Self Promotion
A picture says a thousand words. So do 1,384 tagged photos on Facebook say? And the 102 you’ve posted to Twitter? And the 46 GPOYs you’ve got on your Tumblr? That’s a hell of a lot of talking before you’ve even opened your mouth to potential employers.
Things You Don’t Even Want to Tell Your BFF
Best friends talk about everything. There’s nothing you have to hide from your biffle. Dirty laundry and everything, your best friend will always be by your side. …At least that’s what we always hear.
The College Sport Every Student Will Want to Play
So you played sports in a high school, and you were okay. But you never quite got to the level that would attract any attention from a college recruit. That’s fine, life as a college athlete basically sucks anyway.

Baggin’ Out: Lauren Moshi Heart Dreamcatcher Tote
My backpacks are too big to lug around as a bag, but my purses aren’t big enough, so I’m stuck using old totes I received at conferences and the like. Trust me, nothing kills a super cute outfit like a re-usable campus bookstore tote that’s bright blue. So, I set out to find a cute tote that would still be appropriate for all these activities. And I think I found one in Lauren Moshi!
They’re Baacck: Vinny, Ronnie, and the Situation Return to Jersey
For the past few weeks, the cast of MTV’s Jersey Shore has been filming the 4th season of the show in Florence, Italy. Since the city of Florence had all these weird rules about the show filming (no filming inside nightclubs, no filming people drinking, etc…), it’s no surprise that MTV decided to bring the cast back to Seaside Heights to film an episode or two. While we’re used to seeing the infamous MVP (Mike, Vinny, and Pauly D), Pauly’s nowhere to be seen in these pics, so enjoy these ridiculous new shots of MV… R.

Sexy Time: Does The Media Influence Our Sex Lives?
I recently came across an interesting blog post providing some insight into society’s portrayals of sex. The cultural dialogue on sex isn’t terribly nuanced. There is aggressive, brash, unapologetic sexuality promoted by porn and pop music, and then there’s the less prominent demure, lovemaking more likely to be seen on TV and in movies. This post kind of struck a chord with me.
OnlineDating.edu?
Two lovely ladies at Columbia University developed the idea to start a dating site, DateMySchool.com, strictly for us collegiate lovers. That’s right, with this site you can breathe easy: there won’t be any creepy 50 year old friend requests or pokes from your younger brother’s annoying friends. To become a member of the site you must have a working .edu email address.
