Totally Trippy Tye-Dyed Food [Photos]

As a student, I’ll eat anything that’s cheap. Sadly, cheap doesn’t always mean pretty. After a while the boring hues of instant oatmeal, Ramen and…whatever that was in the dining hall yesterday…really take a toll on my upbeat, go get ‘em attitude. But wouldn’t it be fun to eat a PB&J with tie-dyed bread or chips and salsa with tie-dyed tortilla chips? I think so.

These foods are so drool-worthy but also eye-catching. Yum! Read More »

Web Spy: Bookperk

It seems like new social shopping sites (like Groupon) are popping up every day. Some of them are even specifically focused on one thing, such as vacations, wine, shoes, and more. One of the newest sites I’ve come across is Bookperk, a Groupon-like site geared towards readers.

Bookperk pairs new bestselling books with exclusive merchandise and/or experiences that are only available to members of the site. Some of the current offers available right now are copy of Emily Post’s Ettiquitte along with a package of thank you cards and the Cowboys and Aliens graphic novel and movie poster. And like other shopping sites, the deals change daily, so if you find something you love, don’t wait too long or it might be gone! Read More »


Throwdown of the Lady Bloggers

Who says girls shouldn’t fight? When it comes to the female bloggers we rounded up for our Most Influential Women poll, our list of nominees is about as fierce as it gets. Whether you read their posts religiously, or roll your eyes at their “real” lives (are we the only ones who think it’s all too good to be true?), there’s no denying the title of Most Influential Blogger is something to get scrappy over.

Bring out your claws freshly manicured nails and be prepared to state your case over which of these lady bloggers most deserves the crown. Read More »


Last Minute Halloween Costumes That Don’t Look Last Minute

Halloween: It’s always been October 31, always been the orange shaded region of the calendar, but for some reason this year, it has gone unnoticed.  Maybe you blame your blinding lust for Pumpkin Spiced Lattes, your desperate need to study for midterms, or your manic desire to watch every college football game, but Halloween is here and it’s time to get a costume. The good news is, I’m sure Halloween USA still has a slutty nurse or a slutty pirate hanging on the rack – carbon copies of every other college girl’s costume – so go out and get one of these before it’s too late!

I’m kidding. Please don’t do that.

This year, get creative, get inspired and get attention with some of these last-minute costumes ideas – guaranteed to make Halloween a night you won’t forget (again.)

Sexy (err, or Slutty) Costumes:

Girl’s Gone Wild Censored Girl.  If you’ve got a rocking body and don’t mind showing it off, put on a pair of jeans and a nude strapless bra. Attach a piece of thick, black cardboard to the bra and with white paint, write, “CENSORED” on the cardboard.  You’ll be the hottest girl at the party and your parents will be so proud.

Walk of Shame. If you live anywhere near a frat house, you know what this girl looks like. With one broken heel, smudged make-up, and wild sex hair, this girl has definitely had a good night. Add a boyfriend’s (wrongly-buttoned) t-shirt and a pair of boy-cut panties to really make this look authentic.

8 Under $20: Camel

I just love camel — it’s a classic neutral that brings to mind Old Hollywood glamour and it’s versatile enough to be worn with anything and everything in your closet. This warm khaki shade looks especially current paired with the other popular colors for fall — bright red, deep purple, olive green and pale blue.

This season, camel can be found everywhere: sweaters, dresses, outerwear, shoes and accessories. If you’re looking for an easy way to update your wardrobe this fall, give camel a try. Swap out your standby neutrals like black and gray for camel instead, and you’ll look both classic and chic at the same time. Here are a few great pieces to get you started for just $20 or less!

Sex in the News: Crisis Pregnancy Centres

There’s a lot going on when it comes to reproductive health these days. First Herman “anti-abortion but women should choose” Cain, found himself clarifying his stance on abortion. Then there’s been different state-issues on Crisis Pregnancy Centers.

In case you don’t have a background knowledge on Crisis Pregnancy Centers let me clear it up for you. A CPC, or pregnancy resource center (PRC), works to counsel women against have abortions. They’re non-profits, generally run by Christian organizations. In the United States there are about 4,000 of these centers, with about 20 states providing funding them. Read More »


Tuffy Luv Gets Anxiety

Question?! Answer: Ask Tuffy Luv.

Dear Tuffy Luv,

Recently, I’ve had one of the worst things happen to me that could happen to any college student: I had a falling out with my best friend. It was bad. The kind of thing you see in movies, where there’s yelling and tears. She pretty harshly informed me that she didn’t like me anymore. After three years of living together and being close friends, she ditched me to be BFFLs with another girl whom she finds to be more “exciting.” Read More »
