Recappin\' The Hills...

So, I was gone for a few weeks and
missed out on a lot of Hills recapping.
I was so excited to get back into it…
until I actually watched tonight’s totally
sucky episode. Like most episodes of
The Hills, nothing really happened. In
fact, the entire show can be broken
down into two sentences:
Lauren and Audrina make up.
Spencer acts like a douche in
front of his Nana. Read More...

A 90210 Wardrobe on an Anytown, U.S.A. Budget

90210.jpg

If you happened to catch the new 90210 last week, I’m assuming you’re in agreement with me that the show itself was rather hard to watch. Good thing there were some cute outfits to add something worth looking at.

Obviously, since most of us don’t live in one of the wealthiest zip codes in the country, we can’t afford to wear designer duds on a daily basis, but achieving the look of the new class of West Beverly Hills High doesn’t have to cost you your firstborn. With a trip to your local Target, Express or Forever 21 (my personal faves for inexpensive fashion) or a few mouse clicks, you can pull together a great 90210-inspired ensemble. Read More »

The (Un)Official Guide to College Loungewear

sweats-girl.jpgCollege girls spend so much time focusing on finding the perfect pair of “classroom to club” jeans or comfy/cute campus shoes that they often forget about the clothing they’ll spend the most time in: loungewear.

Many people don’t realize that after walking around campus breaking in those new skinny jeans or working hard at that killer internship that the first thing you’ll want to do is throw on something comfortable upon dorm/apartment arrival. Here is a guide of what to look for while shopping for new loungewear.

PJ’s: Do not, I repeat DO NOT wear your pajamas to class! No matter how cute/expensive they are, nothing screams “I don’t give a sh*t about how I look” more than rocking a pair of ‘jammies to your Chem lecture. This may be acceptable for some of you who have super early (Read: 8 am) classes and labs, but try to wear them sparingly (and absolutely NO P.J.’s of any kind after noon); it’s kind of hard for your professor to take you seriously when your bottoms are covered in violet tiaras and have the word “Princess” inscribed on the butt in fuschia fabric glitter.

Wearing your pajamas are definitely okay in your dorm, since very few people will see you in them (and if they do, they will also be wearin’ em). Just remember to be smart about your pajama options, since you never know what you’ll have on when fire alarm inevitably goes off at 3 a.m. (Note: racy lingerie will not keep you warm as you sit outside for an hour). Victoria’s Secret’s PINK line is pretty much the official wardrobe of most college girls, but American Eagle’s Aerie collection also offers pajamas in simple plaid and polka dot patterns in soft, but not too girly, colors.

Go, Go, Go and Grab up the Latest GO International Designer from Target

roganfortarget.jpgIn its continuous quest to provide us average folk with fashionable duds for those ever-so-reasonable Tarjay prices, Target has teamed up with American designer Rogan Gregory to produce its eleventh GO International, limited edition collection. Rogan Gregory has created three lines since 2001, Rogan, Loomstate and EDUN, and in November 2007, Rogan was the recipient of the prestigious CDFA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award.

The collection itself has a beach safari feel with bold zebra and leopard prints, pops of bright colors, and an earthtone palette all set upon relaxed silhouettes and spring/summer wardrobe staples like loose tanks, wrap dresses, shorts, skirts and hoodies.

Another bonus to Rogan’s collection is that, like his other collections, Rogan for Target is eco-friendly and socially conscious; all the pieces are made of 100% certified organic cotton, linen, bamboo and hemp, so not only will you be lookin’ adorable for these upcoming hot months, but you’ll be givin’ love to the environment as well (like we need more excuses to go shopping).

Style Watch: Rehab Wear

rehab.gifWho knew Lindsay Lohan could fuel a fashion trend by being photographed destitute in the back of her Mercedes? Girl’s got pull.

Ever since that infamous pre - rehab photo of Lilo was taken, American Apparel’s Flex Fleece Salt ‘n’ Pepper Hoodie has been selling like crazy.

Apparently, trend slaves across the country are unconditionally dedicated to Lindsay and support her style regardless of her emotional/physical state of duress.

But hell, I’ll jump on the wagon for this trend. In fact, I already have. I own that hoodie in like, seventeen colors.

It’s amazing — so comfortable, durable hood, sturdy zipper, and roomy pockets to hold all your pills. I think this is the best look to surface in a while (am I the only one who can’t stand that freaking bubble hem??).

Overdosing and going to rehab may not exactly conjure images of high fashion and fun, but at least you get to wear comfy clothes. Looking strung - out has never looked so good.
