Givenchy’s Designer Riccardo Tisci Sports Religion on Runway

Written By Dana Ford, Relate Contributing Writer (Photo by Fashion Wire Daily – FWD201 model walks the runway at the Givenchy show during Men Fall 2010 Fashion Week in Paris on Friday, Jan. 22, in Paris.) Many say politics and religion don’t mix. But what about religion and fashion? Well, according to the works of Givenchy’s designer Riccardo Tisci, it can lead to all sorts of witty and thought-provoking fashion, especially for men, as he showed January 22 in Paris. Jesus was a popular inspiration, as many of Tisci’s looks this Fall 2010 featured a golden crown of thorns necklace... [Read the full story]

The Classic Bobby

The Classic Bobby

February 4, 2010 · 1 Comment 

Written by Kristin Larmore, Web Editor You find them on your carpet weeks later when they catch your eye- a thin, black, almost invisible line. One minute you can’t seem to find one; the next, you have an overflow collected from purses, drawers and pockets. Oh yes- they’re the classic but never-failing bobby pins. Sure, they’re easy to lose- but most would agree they can hold your hair up and style it like many things can’t! They don’t break like your claw clips and hair ties- and they always seem to hold those flyaways in place. Whether you’ve got curly, straight... [Read the full story]

Unexpected Meetings…Stuck in an Elevator?

Unexpected Meetings…Stuck in an Elevator?

February 2, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

Written by Ellen Marie Hawkins, Relate Contributing Writer Stuck in an elevator. Those few words create many different reactions from people. Most of us would feel claustrophobic, or panic or just plain awkward with a stranger. The chances of being stuck in an elevator are pretty good, especially compared to being struck by lightening, so we take that chance every time we step into an elevator. And although there are things to do to lessen our chances (stop pushing those floor buttons repeatedly, or banging on the doors, or, c’mon, we’ve all done this, hopping around in one) it could happen. So... [Read the full story]

Yale University Takes a Cue From “High School Musical”

Yale University Takes a Cue From “High School Musical”

February 2, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

Written by Devin Miller, Relate Contributing Writer (Photo by Office of Undergraduate Admissions) Smiling students run down the stairs, belting music and dancing to a catchy beat. Sound familiar? If you guessed the ending scene of “High School Musical” in this case, you are mistaken. The new Yale University promotional video puts a creative musical twist on the standard “Here’s why you should come to ______” college admissions video. The idea for a musical-style admissions video came last year from Andrew Johnson, a 2006 graduate of Yale. Before the creation of “That’s Why I Chose... [Read the full story]

Written by Dana Ford, Relate Contributing Writer It’s hard to feel good when we’re just not looking our best on the outside, right girls? We go to great lengths to look good before we leave the house, before we present ourselves to others. We must be clean, showered, primped and perfected. Many say, “If you look good, you’ll feel good, too.” But for many of us, it’s hard to keep up with the models on TV. It’s hard to keep up with the latest fashion trends and hairstyles. Our busy lifestyles don’t allow for this type of primping anymore. Have no fear! We’re here to tell you, if... [Read the full story]
