Your Boyfriend's Favorite Looks: Translated

March 4, 2012 - 4:58pm

Guys have it so easy – they don’t have to deal with painful 5-inch stilettos or skintight strapless dresses in order to look good on a night out. Let’s be honest here, most guys throw on basketball shorts and a t-shirt and call it high fashion. But, haven’t you ever secretly wanted to raid your boyfriend’s closet and see what the hype is all about? Whether it’s one of his old t-shirts or a well-worn, oversized sweater, something about menswear is so sexy, not to mention ridiculously comfortable. And lucky for us, the look is back for the season; from J. Crew’s “boyfriend jeans” to Topshop’s “boyfriend blazer,” designers can’t seem to get enough of this trend. Here are a few ways you can incorporate your guy’s clothes into your spring wardrobe.

Bad Boys We Love to Hate

I’m sure many of us ditched our homework this weekend and plopped in front of the television to admire the beautiful dresses and people at the 2012 Academy Awards. Many of us probably noticed the very handsome men who were nominated for Oscars, and many of them would not be considered the typical “good” or “nice” guy most of us hope to be with one day. Instead, some exemplify the type of men that us ladies go after because of the challenge it represents. Many of us need to experience these types of men in order to realize they are not who we want to end up with, but at the end of the day, the good guys should never come in last place.

Internship Chronicles: My Summer on the Run


By Camilla Grove
February 17, 2012 - 11:11am

Last summer I turned down an internship at a theater company because I was afraid they would not have much for me to do. Of course my parents weren’t happy with my choice and midsummer I finally found another internship working for a production company in New York City.
