Welcome to the Real World: The Do’s of Acing an Interview
We’re growing faster than a gangly 13-year-old girl here at CollegeCandy headquarters (well, technically our parents’, CMG headquarters) and we’re hiring up a storm. So in addition to getting to write about celebrity PDA and decorating your vagina, I also now get to conduct tons of interviews.

Shop Your Closet: White Button-up Shirt
Whether or not you ever wear it, you probably have a white button-up shirt in your closet. If your mom bought it for you, thinking it would be a good wardrobe foundation (she was right!) or it’s one of your go-tos for job interviews, it’s a pretty common piece to own.
Shop Your Closet: Leather Skirt
The leather skirt is super versatile and can be worn with a wide variety of items for many different occasions. Though this item may seem tricky to incorporate into your wardrobe, it’s a challenge everyone should take on. Especially because it’s possible to build outfits around a leather skirt with stuff you’ve already got lying around (because lord knows you haven’t had time to hang anything up since midterms started….).

8 Under $20: Going Gray
It’s almost that time of year again. Time to pack up those boxes and head back to campus to endure the infamous walk of shame walk to class, cafeteria food, cute boys in uniform, and a little math problem I like to call “peppermint schnapps + chocolate milk = excellent football game material.” Cheers to that.

As we get closer to the end of the school year, many of us are going on internship/summer job interviews- myself included.

Contrary to what some people think, Uggs and flip flops are not acceptable at most office jobs.

It’s internship hunting season and, thanks to the economy, it’s more competitive than ever. That means it’s more important than ever to make a really good first impression.

College Grads Aren’t Getting Jobs, But You Can!
When we all entered our senior year of high school, the question on everyone’s mind was where they’d be going to college. We worked our asses off to get decent SAT scores and spent every weekend for months writing essays about why we were more wonderful than the thousands of other students applying for the same coveted place on campus.
Be Cool (and Employable) – Stay In School
God, am I lucky to still be in college. And no, I’m not just talking about the amazing carefree, party animal, parent-less lifestyle of mine (life literally does not. get. better). I’m talking about the luxury of not having to deal with the real world in a currently not-so-great world.
Life After College: Where’s MY Job?
I’ve learned a lot about myself in these months since I’ve graduated. Most importantly I’ve learned that I have severe and occasionally life-threatening problem with jealously. I like my friends, some more than others, and I want them to do well. However I don’t want them to do well until I’m doing well.
Farting: Why You Should Let ‘Er Rip
Farting is always inappropriate and embarrassing. I will never support any form of butt cheek musicals. However, I may be forced to change my mind after seeing this little piece of earth-shattering news: Tiger Woods farted. He farted on the 18th hole of the Buick Open. Oh yes people, this is news.
