As a fellow single lady here at UNI, I'm not about to sit around and mope about not having a special someone to share the day with. Nope, this weekend is calling my name and it is screaming "girls night!" Of course, I always run into the drama of deciding what to wear for such occasion, which inspired me to search for fun outfit ideas. If you need help deciding what to wear this weekend or on Feb 14th, here are some ideas to hopefully spark some creativity within your own wardrobe! These outfits are perfect if you are going out, on a date, or staying in (preferrably with a Channing Tatum movie, sparkling grape juice and a bag of Ghirardelli Chocolates)....

	Campus Cutie: Will Norman By Bailey Herrstrom February 7, 2012 - 11:39pm Valentines day. The thought alone elicits in me a certain gag reflex every February. The chocolate, the teddy bears, the red, pink, and glitter…all sold to men looking to woo his lady on the 14th. I am not wooed. Love knows no bounds, so why have we bound it to certain day? If anyone were to know this concept, it would be this week’s campus cutie: Will Norman. Just recently a dating man, this cutie lights up at the very mention of his valentine’s name...now that’s more like it ladies. READ MORE

	The Hippinista: Floral Fashion By Hilary Hinrichs February 2, 2012 - 7:26pm I have always wondered why everything goes straight to gloomy and dark during winter? Why not wear florals and brights all year round? I love to keep my florals cycling through every season, no matter the conditions. I joke that I wear the exact same clothes during summer.. only in winter I add the tights. In most cases, it is very true. I had to get more creative since I have found a love for anti-denim jeans. I have never been a fan of jeans growing up because of how low the styles were. I still wore them. Now that I am in college I have stopped wearing jeans although they pop up once in awhile on colder days. It is fun to create different outfits that do not revolve around those denims. READ MORE ...
