Back to school: Keep those gadgets stylish and safe

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories


InCaseThere are few things sadder than a scratched up tech toy. Students of today often have to tote around more than just a couple of books and a Jansport, and it's important to keep those extra goodies protected from the bumps and scratches of hectic school life. Just a wee bit of prevention can go a long way. Really, once you get that hardcore scar across the front of your super-shiny Macbook after accidentally skimming it with your bracelet-decorated wrist, you'll be sorry you didn't read this!

I want that! Ports 1961 Drapefront Dress

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Celebrities with Style, Get the Look


We are totally obsessed with this little plaid number Vanessa Hudgens wore on her TRL Appearance in MTV's Times Square Studios on July 1, 2008. The man-ish print and colors contrasting with the feminine bow and sweetheart neckline is pure perfection . Apparently everyone else loves it too because it is completely sold out on Saks.com.

Though you can tell this girl gathers inspiration from style icons like Kate Moss, she puts her own spin on everything she wears and is definitely one to watch. This dress is just proof in the pudding.

Clicking through the looks gave us sweet 80s nostalgia. Purple eyeliner! Sparkly green! Ah, ninth grade! Then we came across a pictures of lip liner and vivid pink blush and had to laugh.

Your high school prom dress is back in fashion

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses

Hey! It's your prom dressUntil about 30 seconds ago, I would have sworn up and down that the 80s revival was finally over having been replaced by the dark, layered, depressive tones of Cobain-inspired grunge chic (a la 1993). But that was before I bumped into this post, which highlights some of the 80s "party dresses" that have started showing up at Topshop, Miss Selfridge, and other UK clothing shops.

Is it just me, or do these shockingly similar to the dresses Molly Ringwald and company wore to every school dance back in Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink?

These dresses would have been incredibly cool a couple years ago, but now the 80s obsession seems uninspired. I'm ready to start stealing from a different decade.
