Looking to add some new pieces to your wardrobe this summer? I have 8 different styles of skirts that should make the list. Short, long, trendy, classic; these eight skirts are essential for any girls closet. They are perfect for a day in the office or night out on the town. Best of all, they can be styled to be tailored to your taste. Skirts are very versatile and can be mixed and matched all summer long. Try a new trend or length this season and you might just find your new favorite skirt!

School is out, and it’s finally time to embrace summer. That means warm weather, dresses, shorts, flip-flops and all of this season’s hottest trends. Although the neon craze has been around for awhile, I think I’ll finally give it a try this summer. It can be done in so many ways, so it’s easy for everyone to experiment with. Whether you’re bold with a head to toe look or just want to try out a splash with accessories or neon nails, there is something for everyone.

I’m going to be honest with you — my first thought after watching that Shopaholic film was ‘so this means if I got a credit card, I could have amazing clothes like that too?’

Definitely not the point, as every person I shared my revelation with was quick to point out. But what’s a shopaholic on a limited budget to do? Figure out how to do it on the cheap!  I’ve rounded up some less expensive alternatives to those pricey stores we all love in hopes that we can look super trendy, without being super broke.

Lately, I’ve been enjoying wearing pants when I go out, as opposed to skirts and dresses. Pants are a fun and unexpected option for a night on the town that also keep you mega comfy! Harem pants made a comeback a few seasons ago and since I’ve never featured them, I figured it was about time!

This pair from Forever 21 features a fun, tribal-inspired print in girly rose pink. As they are harem pants, they’re made from comfy, lightweight rayon and come to capri-length. These are a great option for summer, as they will keep you cool and looking chic and polished. This week, I decided to show you how to wear harem pants for a night out and a day at the office. Forever 21′s prices are so affordable that it doesn’t matter if this piece is super trendy – you’re getting your money worth with only a handful of wears. You can’t expect amazing quality for the prices, but you will have at least a season to wear out your piece. Read More »

Rachel Bilson never fails to impress. She always makes fashion look so simple and easy. That’s what all of my favorite fashionistas have in common. Even if they spend 5 hours on their outfits, it always looks like 5 minutes. True style is a reflection of your personality, so it shouldn’t look forced or uncomfortable. But enough with my philosophizing, let’s get to the clothes.

gray blazer - Macy’s, $34.99; gray hobo bag - New York & Co, $11.99; black booties - DSW, $9.94; denim shorts - American Eagle, $29.99; boyfriend shirt - Lands’ End, $19.99; sunglasses - Forever 21, $5.80

Blazers always make me swoon, and I’m totally jealous of wherever Rachel is that it’s cool enough to even wear one (why does summer have to be soooo hot?). This gray one is perfect for layering. Boyfriend shirts will never go out of style, and they always look sexy paired with a blazer. Denim shorts make this look more summer appropriate, and take it towards a more casual place, especially distressed ones. Black booties add a little rock star/Taylor Momsen-y edge, which fits in very smoothly with this ensemble that flirts very coyly with “grunge.” Accessories include a great, functional, cute little gray bag and classic wayfarer sunglasses. It’s an interesting outfit for day or (especially) for night that combines comfort with sexiness.

Once upon a time full-figured women were forced to wear muumuus, oversized t-shirts and mom jeans. No one even considered the idea that plus-sized women wanted to be hip, fashionable, and trendy. But today, retailers are beginning to welcome bigger women with arms wide open.

There are stores in malls and online for women of all shapes and sizes. And because we know that not all CollegeCandy readers are squeezing into their size 0 jeans at night, we wanted to introduce you to some of our favorite plus-size stores. Read More »

So…I’m back, just a few days away from my very last semester of college ever. It’s a strange feeling, knowing that this is the last time I’ll buy my school supplies, search for cheap books online, write down all my assignments, and swear to keep it together this year. Because when I fail to do so with all the grace and elegance I have in my mind, I can’t just say, oh well, maybe next year. Because there is no next year.

This is it, my last shot, my final semester. So I better to do it, right. With that thought in mind, I’ve come up with a few resolutions to guide me through my last semester as an undergrad. Some of these make a lot of sense; some of them are completely ridiculous. But I do intend to follow through with all of them.
