• The Weekly Ten: Summer Fever

    The Weekly Ten: Summer Fever

    As a New Englander you would think I would be one of the many supporters of winter. After all, I used to figure skate and bring my inner tube to the Seven Hills, but somewhere (I blame junior year of college; not sure why) I turned. Maybe it was when I fell in love with all the wonderful things summer had to offer, maybe it was when winter started taking over half of the year.

    I’m Nostalgic for Summer and Sand Castles [Photos]

    If there’s one thing to miss about summer (aside from awesome tans, hot sand between my toes, svelte beach bodies, grillin’ and chillin’ and sundresses) it’s the awesome art happening on the beach!

    The Weekly Ten: Things I Will Miss about Summer

    It’s that time of year again, summer internships are ending, soon-to-be freshman are crowding the lines at Bed Bath and Beyond and those of us not heading back to college are forced into finding a more permanent life option.

  • Summer Resolutions You Can Still Achieve

    Summer Resolutions You Can Still Achieve

    Four months is a lot of time to spend doing nothing, which is why more often than not college students find themselves with a lap full of summer resolutions. Now we’re in the last month of summer and some of us, no doubt, have given up on forgotten about those promises we made to ourselves, but it’s not too late to get back on the horse. Here’s a few ways you can still achieve those summer resolutions.

    Here are the Reasons Why I Don’t Tan

    After years of lamenting my pasty state, I finally realized: I’m never going to be tan! My skin has always been and will always be pale. Baby, I was born this way.

  • The Bachelorette: Ashley Steals Home

    The Bachelorette: Ashley Steals Home

    This week on The Bachelorette- Home Town Dates. One of the episodes in the season we all can’t wait to see. Partly because it means it is almost over, but mainly we want to see how crazy the guys’ families are, considering they supported their journey of love on a reality dating show that usually results in messy public breakups.

  • The Freshman Experience: The Summer Limbo

    The Freshman Experience: The Summer Limbo

    For us, the incoming freshman of the Class of 2015, we’ve got less than a season to primp ourselves, prep our minds, and broaden our horizons enough to give a great first impression on that first day of classes. (And if we plan on rushing a sorority fall semester, that pressure is basically quadrupled.)

    9 Cool Places I’d Rather be than Sweating Here

    I know it’s only June and the dog days of summer have just barely started, but it was 99 degrees here yesterday and after lugging my million-pound air conditioner up 3 flights of stairs, there is nothing I wanted more than the 10 feet of snow that seemed to pile up every other day this past winter.

    CC Beauty Live: Beat The Heat Makeup Edition

    I’m outside for at least six hours a day working summer lacrosse camps in the sweltering Atlanta heat, so trust me when I say that wearing makeup is not my first priority. But it’s my job to test products and figure things out for you fine viewers. This week I’ve tried a combination of things to make sure what I put on was lasting all day.

    Body Blog: Arm Candy

    I don’t know about you, but I am completely obsessed with arms. On guys, strong arms makes me feel protected and safe – not to mention, it’s uber sexy. On girls, nicely toned arms show a sense of empowerment and look great in sleeveless dresses. So, I’m finally dedicating this week’s workout to getting that sleek arm definition.
