Ahhh Easter holidays. A time when we, uni students, leave the books, lectures, and assignments behind and head for warmer climates, beach bronzed coeds, and sex on the beach (pun definitely intended). It’s a time for us to let down our hair and enjoy all that April has to offer. Whether you headed off to the slopes or partied hard at the beach, Easter break gave us overworked and stressed...

Living dangerously close to that fatal overdraft line seems to be a staple of being a student. It seems as if money wise we are living in that no man’s land where we can escape the horror of living off 20p noodles, but the thought of shopping at Waitrose is merely a dream. We live like kings the week that our loan comes in and then suffer for the rest of the term. Budgeting just doesn...

As two sucessful London Marathon 2012 trainees, for the last few months we have been taking far too literally the idea that, running as much we do, we can get away with eating five times as much a usual human being. Though gorging on chocolate and sweets feels well deserved after a fifteen mile run, we decided this probably wasn’t the healthiest approach, and decided we had better seek out...

Have you stood in the make-up aisle in Boots for hours, trying to decide which brand is best for your first foray into the world of fake eyelashes? Then you’re definitely not alone. Many women seem put off by the idea of false lashes because...

Girls we have to break it to you: Summer is on its way. No more hiding away razor-shy legs in leggings. It is time to face the mirror. Now, we know getting summer-ready can be a traumatic time, involving plucking, tanning, scrubbing, running and all the other things boys have no idea about but appreciate when you’re in your shortest shorts, but we at Her Campus want to make it all a bit...

Fresher’s week: banter, booze… BOYFRIEND?!
According to the tabloids, us students are bringing back the ol’ long-term relationship. In the sixties, women realised that they didn’t need a man to have fun and so, relationships between young people were, generally speaking, pretty short lived. But word on the street now is that long term relationships between young people...

So this week on our little international tour, it’s less about the body and more about the mind, because in spite of how much we love those six-packs and long legs, the mind is supposed to be the sexiest part of the body.
Questions, questions, questions…
What do people in different countries think about certain fundamental questions that tend to define the culture of sex? For example...

‘Edgy.’ Looked up in the dictionary, its official definition might as well be two simple words: Boy London. Set up by Stephane Raynor in 1977, the brand caused controversy from the minute its first store opened on London’s fashionable King’s Road. Originally catering specifically for the free-spirited, punk population of the English capital through its unique statement...

Last month, when I heard Starbucks was offering FREE coffees until noon one week, I may have got a little bit overexcited. However, It turns out this was not a random fit of kindness, but a highly planned marketing strategy to promote their new policy of putting names on coffee cups, and it worked like a dream. Yes, it may sound ridiculous but the truth is that everyone’s favourite coffee...
