Weekly Wrap Up: Chocolate Is (still) A Girl’s Best Friend

This week flew by faster than my entire college career has so far, and that is saying a lot.  It felt like two days ago when I discovered my first ‘Thirsty Thursday.’  And wasn’t it just yesterday when I was holding back confused tears as Ali chose her job and left Jake with only three women on The Bachelor? Yeah, I’m ashamed.

This week has been quite the busy one, and it is ending with a big, glamorous bang. Calling all my fashionistas out there: it is officially Fashion Week!

But before we get into the fun stuff, let’s recap:

- Much to (most everyone’s) dismay, MTV is doing a little logo-renovating. And Snooki is the top design inspiration.

- We’ve been spending way too much time at the gym. Time that would be better spent… watching reruns of The Bachelor?

- We discovered that coming with age (and all of those shots of tequila), there is a lot to learn.

- The Dude taught us guys can be friends. Great news! Now I can totally make them go in to the local department store with me. Too much? Read More »


We’re Shaking in Our Ankle Booties for NY Fashion Week!

For us fashionistas, New York Fashion Week (which kicks off today!) is the highlight of the year (or at least the highlight of this dreary February we’re having). Our CollegeCandy hearts always skip a beat when we see those white tents going up in Bryant Park.  The clothes, the shoes, the celebrities, the glamour… Sigh. It’s almost too much to bear.

Until the day we’re rich, famous, and, oh yeah, invited to this exclusive event, we’ll have to live vicariously through TV and internet coverage.

Still, even if we don’t have Heidi Klum’s front row seat, we can’t wait! We’ve got our DVF wrap dress on (courtesy of some serious Ebay-ing), we’re sporting the Anna Wintour helmet bob, and we’re counting down the minutes for the fash-insanity to begin.

Below, the five things we’re looking forward to most about NYFW Fall 2010. Read More »
