Everyone remembers their first time at a bar. Whether they were 17 with a fake ID, or they actually waited until they turned 21, it’s a relatively exciting experience. It’s like when you don’t have to sit at the children’s table for holiday dinners anymore — you finally get to play with the big kids.

That being said, it can sometimes be pretty obvious when someone is at a bar for the first time. No matter how hard you might be trying to fit in, that’s probably exactly what’s making you stand out. And trust me, you don’t want to be that girl. Sometimes, no matter how much everyone drinks, there are some things people just don’t forget.

Here are a few handy little tips on how to handle yourself the first time you make an appearance at a bar — from one bar veteran to a bar virgin, trust me on these.

Dress appropriately. I can’t stress this enough. You might think you’ve finally found a place to wear that skin-tight, super-short, leopard print dress you got at Too Cute, but consider your surroundings first. Most bars are relatively casual, especially local ones. I can’t tell you how many bars I’ve been to where everyone is in jeans and a cute top, and in walks an 18-year-old girl in a tiny dress and sky-high heels looking completely out of place and completely 18. Those outfits are usually better suited for a club. Not that you can’t look cute at a bar — you should. But I would say it’s definitely more of a casual environment.

So you want to take that next step with your boy toy. You’re ready to be exclusive, yet you’re a bit nervous about having “the talk’” with him. Well I’m definitely no relationship guru, but I can surely think of a few ways to absolutely ruin the moment.

Here they are: the 3 biggest don’ts of having The Talk:

1. Don’t try and break the ice via text. There’s nothing more impersonal than trying to have a serious conversation via text message. In person is your best bet.

2. Don’t decide to have the talk during game 5 of the NBA Finals. I guarantee you won’t get the response you’re hoping for.

3. Don’t ask your Facebook friends for advice. I’m serious, social networks could end your relationship before it even begins. You have been warned!

While I’ve covered the three biggest don’ts, my guess is that at this point, you’re still completely lost about what you should do. While I can’t give you any more advice (I’ve pulled a lot more don’ts in my years, than do’s) you can definitely find some more sound advice on the do’s and don’ts of having the talk here.

Good luck!

Because the movie choices this summer are looking pretty bleak, my roommate and I decided to stay in and rent a $4 movie on iTunes. Not. Worth It.

In Just Go with It, a creepy plastic surgeon, played by Adam Sandler, creeps on girls half his age who naturally fall for his charms because he wears a prop wedding ring. But, when a girl he finally likes finds the wedding ring, he tells her that he’s getting divorced. Cue his assistant, played by Jennifer Aniston, to act as his fake ex-wife. The charade takes them all the way to Hawaii and things just get complicated-er and complicated-er.

Top 4 reasons Just Go with It makes no sense:

1. Adam Sandler gets hot women (by wearing a wedding ring no less). First of all, Adam Sandler hasn’t been funny since The Chanukah Song. I know that’s an unpopular opinion but I’m sticking to it. (Oh, except The Wedding Singer. That’s the best movie ever.) Secondly, Adam Sandler is 44 years old. Why is he in movies in which he dates a 23-year-old who’s crying that ‘NSync broke up. I know that’s part of the joke and his (limited) “emotional journey” as a character, but it really just comes across as creepy.

[This post and contest come hot off the Internet presses from our friends at CollegeFashion!]

The denim vest trend was popular on the runways last season and is making a statement on the streets this season. Since a denim vest is typically an edgy, unexpected piece, you can wear it to toughen up any outfit. In addition, a studded or worn-in denim vest can also create great contrast when paired with a cute summer dress.

Personally, I love this trend for its versatility – after all, denim goes with everything. Also, there are so many options available: If you aren’t a fan of light denim or studs, you can easily find black or white denim vests! There’s truly a style of denim vest out there for everyone.

In the last year, it seems as though being single has been my specialty. While flings and hookups have come (pun intended) and gone, and dates have left me with some less than desirable memories, my current single status has remained loyally by my side. I’ve learned a lot in the past year and I’ve discovered that single girls around the world are all in the same fabulous pair of shoes.

Lesson 27: If He Wanted To Be With You, He’d Be With You

So there you are, another Friday night, another Lean Cuisine and bottle of red that you’ve already taken the liberty of gulping down as an appetizer. Content with your night but mostly with your wine buzz, just about to sink into the couch hoping for a marathon of the Real Housewives of Anywhere, your phone’s text message alert rings. Looking at the phone’s screen just long enough to know you should’ve known better than to look, you realize it’s your ex. Of course it is. It’s about that time again right? Every two months or so, he loves to check in with his favorite go-to line, “I’m thinking of you” (or if he’s drunk, “Im thinjing og yoi”) just long enough to make your head spin (on top of your wine buzz).

There will always be that one ex in your life that takes a socially unacceptable amount of joy in confusing the hell out of you. He’ll come out of nowhere and drop bombs about how he misses you but as soon as you call him out on it, he reverts to whatever excuse he’s got in his arsenal. If it’s not an issue with commitment, it’s a new girlfriend or some spiel about needing to “find himself.”

What is it about summer that makes judging celebrities’ looks a whole new kinda fun? Red carpet events often invite revealing hit-or-miss warm weather fashions, while the star-studded beaches of California produce more infamous bikini pics than a season of Jersey Shore. Seriously, give me an iced coffee and a copy of Us Weekly and I’m set for at least two hours of “What the hell was she thinking!?” and “Damn, she’s got a sick body!” amusement.

This summer is already tossing out looks fit for review by the Olympic judges. Just take a look at what our favorite ladies of Hollywood decided to rock to the MTV Movie Awards this past weekend. From leopard to tribal, prints seemed to be the theme of Sunday night and while our eyes were zigging and zagging to take it all in, there were definitely those who could pull off a bolder statement, while others…well, take a look for yourself (ahem, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley).

"No, you can not pretend it's Halloween in June. You're 22! Get a Job!"

Note: Let me first start by saying this excludes anyone 8 and younger and for now we are not going to even start with the girls who call their boyfriends “Daddy.” Right now, I’m looking at the 16+ crowd who still, for some really weird reason, need to call their fathers “Daaaadddddddy.” Ladies, this is for you. 

Dear women and young women who still say “Daddy,”

Maybe it’s because I don’t understand you, that I hate hearing your shrill voice yell for your “Daddy” as you stomp your foot. Maybe it’s because I’ve had old men ask me if I need a new Daddy, so the fact that you refer to your father as “Daddy” complete creeps me out. But, it’s probably because while you are doing so, you are usually throwing a tantrum, and you are also well into your 20′s. That’s why I usually look at you with disgust then opt to walk the other way, hoping not to run into you again.

I realize growing up it scary, so you want to hold on to your childhood. You dig your teeth and nails into a younger version of you where people won’t look at you as if you are an idiot when you scream “Daddy” and throw a tantrum because he won’t buy you a chocolate cone. But here is some advice, if you get a job and move out…you can buy yourself whatever you want. I know it may seem crazy, but I hear everyone is doing it.

I know you are probably sitting in your 50 room mansion reading this while calling for your Daddy and seeing if there is anything he can do to make the mean girl on the screen go away, but girlfriend take a hint from Lohan and get a clue (yes I realize that was a little lame, but drastic times call for corny phrases.) I’m only here to help you.

There’s no easy was to breakup with someone. It’s just an innately uncomfortable situation. Inevitably there will be some harsh words and ugly cry faces. Someone will shamefully grovel and plea, either for forgiveness or to be taken back. Maybe a vase will be thrown, a picture frame smashed. And that’s only if things get exciting. Most times you just sit there with someone else not saying much, but miraculously knowing exactly what’s going on anyway.

Well, prepare to have your world rocked, because the art of the breakup has finally been perfected. Some nameless little genius went out and penned himself the letter to end all letters. Take a look above and see for yourself. Did you just read the words “tet-tets” and “crip?” Yes. Yes, you did.

Asysna, how ever could you let this winner go?
