Fashion Porn: Green Orgy
I’m going to be a little blunt – I personally think that dressing up for holidays is a little lame. There are, however, 2 exceptions
1. Halloween (duhhh)
2. St. Patrick’s Day.
Campus Couture: Ashley from Lakehead
I’ve known Ashley since she introduced herself to me in grade 10 science class. She was always bold, not only in personality, but also in style. Ashley plays by her own rules and has one of the most unique senses of fashion I have ever seen.

I Love Your Style: Margot Tenenbaum
he Royal Tenenbaums is one of Wes Anderson’s many dysfunctional-family masterpieces he is infamous for. Besides portraying one of the strangest and most awkward families known to humanity, the main characters in The Royal Tenenbaums each have an extremely specific style, much like cartoons, that they hardly ever drift from.
Web Spy: ShopStyle
It’s no secret that I’m an online-shopping addict. I don’t always buy things when I online shop, though–a lot of times, I just like to browse my favorite stores’ sites when I’m bored. However, when there actually is something in particular I need (or want) to buy, I prefer to look for it online first rather than driving down to the mall and searching through hundreds of racks of clothes in dozens of different stores.
Go Green For St. Patrick!
As Kermit once said, “It ain’t easy bein green.” But Kermit obviously hadn’t experienced St. Patrick’s Day. If he had, he might know that being green ain’t such a bad thing.
Wanna Raid Christabelle’s Closet?
If you’re anything like me, you’re a sucker for a name brand. Despite wanting to be above it, I die when I see the new Marc Jacobs handbags or Prada runway show at Fashion Week. Also, if you’re anything like me, your bag costs more than what’s in your bank account and realistically you shouldn’t be buying that Chanel watch that costs more than your rent.
Spring Break Swimsuits: Affordable and Adorable?!
It’s okay girls, count to ten and breathe. I know we all have huge under eye circles, our legs haven’t been shaved in a good week and these study munchies are starting to catch up with our love handles. But on the other side of this pit of fire that is midterms is a glorious week-long party fest.

Around the Web

Oscar Fashion – What Were They Thinking (Literally)?
There’s something about the Oscars that brings out the awkwardness in our favorite Hollywood stars and starlets. On the red carpet, we get to hear the awkward comments celebs make when they aren’t scripted. On stage, we get to hear the awkward comments the presenters make when they are scripted and given the corniest jokes to deliver.
John Paul Gaultier For Target. Meh.
Move over Rodarte sisters, Jean Paul Gaultier is taking over everyone’s favorite store and the wait is finally over. On Sunday, March 7th, Gaultier’s collaboration with Target will be available in 250 stores nationwide. But with rumors of the line not being confirmed until October of 2009, the buzz may have been bigger than the line itself.
From CollegeFashion: 4 Spring Must-Haves for Under $50
Usually I feature items that I consider timeless; things that you can wear again and again no matter the season. For the very last edition of the Fashion Essentials series, I’ve decided to highlight something that a lot of people either skip entirely or go overboard on: seasonal trends.
Budget Stylista: Jeans For Everything
Gap’s new denim line is the bomb. The jeans are comfortable, cute, and, unlike the old Gap jeans, don’t stretch five sizes, giving you a saggy butt after 10 minutes of wear. And if you haven’t tried on a pair of these babies, this weekend is your chance. Bring in a pair of jeans you aren’t wearing and get 30% (35% if you have a Gap card!) off a new pair.
Fashion Porn: Bright Orgy
After a long, cold, gray winter, I think it’s safe to say that everyone is looking forward to spring. And by spring, I mean SPRING BREAK, baby. And while we all need a little warm breeze in our lives, what I’m looking forward to most is ditching the chunky sweaters and embracing spring clothes!

Campus Couture: Renee, Northwestern
I work with Renee and whenever we work together, I always catch myself stealing glances at her fantastic outfits. I love how Renee makes fashion look so easy, like she didn’t even try but somehow always looks totally chic and put together.
