All Partied Out?

With its basic, contrarian point of view, American Apparel has shaped the fashion industries on all levels. But with CEO/founder Dov Charney managing three sexual harassment lawsuits, and the company facing bankruptcy, the future of this unique corporation seems to be headed down the toilet.

Fashion Close Up: Telephone

What are the hottest looks of the season, you ask? Prisoners are making a statement with custom-made frocks featuring sky-high shoulder pads and daring cleavage, and strategically placed caution tape is the newest trend. Did we mention cigarette shades and soda cans are the hottest accessories? OK, not really, but welcome to the world of a Gaga music video.

Chameleon Chic

The secret to possessing a seemingly endless wardrobe of fabulous clothes does not require frequent trips to the mall. True fashion chameleons know how to recycle their favorite pieces in multiple ways. Their greatest weapon is the newest trend: convertible clothing.

Chanel Iman: Fashion’s Newest “It” Girl

With a name like Chanel Iman, being an ordinary girl simply would not do. At only 18 years old, Chanel Iman Robinson has taken the fashion world by storm. How many 18-year-olds can call Tyra Banks their "mentor," be a Victoria's Secret Angel and be linked to everyone from Kanye West to music producer Ryan Leslie? Iman is certainly cementing her status as fashion's newest rising star.

Rutgers Ready-to-Wear

Since sources for inspiration are endless, we decided to see what a collection might look like if the University was chosen as a muse. Brigette Kolson, a recent fashion design graduate from The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, recently drew up three sketches for a ready-to-wear line inspired by Rutgers University, incorporating everything from our school colors to our armor-clad mascot.

Style for Less

Some of us have the tendency to let the festive mood get the best of our judgment, so that we choose too-revealing outfits that forego comfort in favor of perceived sexiness. Get inspired by this season's rockstar trend when putting together a Friday night look that's both classy and alluring.

Luxi Nail Salon | A

So, to help lessen the confusion, we asked a typical girl from Rutgers to take a trip with us to the nail salon, Luxi, located in Highland Park. Using her as our subject, we observed and scrutinized every last detail as she received a basic manicure and pedicure.
