Valuable Vests for Less Than $20! [8 Under $20]
I started my winter break internship this week, and it obviously called for a major shopping trip before I hit the Big Apple last weekend. I visited a few the stores and came home with sweaters, skirts, dresses and countless other bags that didn’t make my wallet happy.
Glee “Tributes” Britney Spears With Some Harshness
Glee sparks some controversy in their latest episode; their second Britney Spears tribute that highlights some of her less proud moments, including her well-known breakdown during her 2007 VMA performance. Have they taken the jokes a little too far in this case?

What Your Favorite Mall Store Says About You
Every girl has her favorite store at mall. It’s your go-to store and where you get 99.9% of all your clothes. And like your favorite movie, your favorite store says a lot about the inner workings of your mind.
8 Under $20: Old Navy
Old Navy is one of my favorite stores. It’s great for stocking up on wardrobe basics like tank tops, tee shirts and sweaters, as well as some trendier pieces — all at an affordable price.

Baggin’ Out: Old Navy Shoulder Bag
Old Navy has really stepped up their game in the past few years. They’ve transformed themselves from an athletic wear hub to a really fashionable place to shop! Old Navy keeps up on trends and I’ve particularly noticed a big push in their accessory department to stay on top. The Shoulder Bag is following right on the fall trends with the buckle detail and clasp-closure pocket.

But what’s a shopaholic on a limited budget to do? Figure out how to do it on the cheap!
The Weekly Ten: Really Terrible Commercials
So the other day I was watching old episodes of 90210 (don’t judge!) that I had DVRed and never got around to watching when it came time for the commercial break. I looked around for the remote so I could fast forward right through (per usual), but it was all the way on the other side of the room.

You’ve made some big, healthy changes in your lifestyle (i.e. skipping the elevator and opting for the stairs en route to your dorm room) and you’re hoping they’ve paid off when you try on some new jeans. But don’t rely on your fave fashion store to accurately determine your size.
Fashion Porn: Fashion Goes S&M
Leather is one of the biggest fabrics for fall 2010. It is also one of the easiest to embrace because EVERYTHING can be made in leather: bags, shoes, leggings, shorts, jackets, skirts…the list goes on. And I love it all. Leather is sexy. It’s edgy. And it makes everything look cool.

Fashion Porn: Do It In a Fall Jacket
One mom approved must-have for both fall and college is a chic fall jacket. The perfect fall jacket is neutral, goes with all your favorite clothes and fits just right. Not to mention, it “keeps you warm on those walks to class. You don’t want to catch a cold!” (Thanks, ma.)
