What It Is:
Clarins 4 Colour Eye Palette in 02 Nudes

Why This Should Be in Your Bag:

Not everyone wears eyeshadow, but I absolutely adore it. It can really transform the look of your eyes and whole face. Eyeshadow (that is well applied) is mark of maturity for me. Palettes are a convenient way to store shadows, but a good eyeshadow palette is hard to find!

Clarins have recently released a series of eyeshadow quads featuring mineral eye shadows in gorgeous color combos. I took 02 Nudes for a test run! Read More »

I actually caught myself doing this yesterday:

I was posted up in my cozy bed, leisurely reading a politically focused novel, my pillows stacked high behind my neck, while drinking chamomile tea with extra honey and a mini-spoon. And, as you can imagine, it was effing amazing. The next morning, I woke up naturally before my alarm (my favorite and most annoying thing ever). Then, I sipped coffee and read the headlines in the first page of the newspaper.

Amidst all of this old lady talk, I got to thinking…and not just about how simple my life has become. Actually, I’ve been so busy talking about how stressful and crazy my life has become since graduating from college all of this time, I haven’t even stopped to think about the serene course my life has taken as well.

I will compare my life from then until now with one word: extreme. EVERYTHING was extreme while I was in college. Read More »

Ah, dating in college. The highlight of any higher education: from laughing at his jokes in math class to the walk of shame from his frat house to your dorm. Despite all that romance, if you’re feeling a lull in your romantic life, here are seven creative, cost-effective campus dates to spice things up. Read More »

Remember when we invited you to take the most epic Facebook survey you’d ever take in your f*cking life? So…did you take it?

If you didn’t, you totally should. Why? Allow me to give you a little refresher:

Our parent company, COED Media Group (yes, we’re owned by a media group. It’s our dirty little secret. But not our dirtiest secret. I’ll stop while I’m ahead.), is doing the greatest Facebook survey ever done. Why is it so great? We’re asking AWESOME questions. And not only are the questions awesome, but if you answer them, you’re eligible to win  the grand prize: a Xbox 360 250GB with Kinect and Halo Reach. Runner-up wins a $200 Apple gift card. It’s hard to go wrong.

You’ve still got some time left to take the survey and enter the contest, so get goin’!!

Kirsten Dunst hasn’t really been relevant to me, personally, since Bring It On. And I haven’t heard her name with any regularity since the last Spiderman movie she was in. For a long time, I’m pretty sure she was low-key on the Lindsay Lohan lifestyle program. Nearly every time I saw a paparazzi shot of her, she looked strung out and like she had given up on…everything. But she seems to have fought through her existential crisis and is going to be in five movies in the next 18 months (including one with Ryan Gosling, lucky her…). Lately, she has been on the promo circuit and her style has been really cute. Kind of boho, kind of glam, and pretty much consistently adorable. Read More »

Today it’s all about what car you drive, what bag you carry, or what your phone is capable of doing, but back in the day, it was all about what you brought to the table– the lunch table, that is. The kids with the generic, plain fabric bags got their lunch money stolen while the kids rocking the Power Rangers box were always scoring extra points when it came to trading deserts.

Check out 15 of 90′s-tastic lunch boxes that will bring you back!

How to talk to your college crush

I’m a big reader, but I know that not everyone feels the same — some people I know would much rather watch a movie than read a book. I get it — movies have awesome special affects, scores and sound effects that make the whole experience more exciting. But now there’s a new App that aims to make reading more like watching a movie!

Booktrack takes your e-reading experience to another level by adding a soundtrack. Booktracks  are e-books that play music and sound effects to go along with the story you’re reading. So, as the website explains, if you’re reading about the character in the book is at a nightclub, you’ll hear club music, or if you’re reading about war, you’ll hear the sound of soldier’s footsteps marching. What’s more, Booktrack tracks your reading speed and changes the music and effects to fit what you’re reading at the time. Read More »

Not even Carrie herself wants to go back!

Carrie Bradshaw is an icon. Her lifestyle is completely unattainable (you show me a columnist for a New York paper who has a closet full of Manolos, and I’ll shave my eyebrows). She’s the most fashionable woman in New York, and she’s not even real. Don’t tell me you have never looked at a wacky dress and thought, “That’s SO Carrie.”

She’s an aspiration. You know you’ll never have her closet or her men or her friends who always seem to always have time to grab lunch with her despite their real jobs. She’s pure fiction, but I still love her. And let me be clear, I know she’s self-centered. I know she only talks about herself when Miranda’s mom dies or when Charlotte learns that she can’t get pregnant, but her whole aura is still fabulous.

And now she’s going to be ruined.

The CW is as close to closing a deal to create The Carrie Diaries as Carrie was to marrying Aiden. The Carrie Diaries is Candace Bushnell’s prequel to Sex and the City and follows Carrie through her senior year of high school. Read More »
