Candy Land
As much as we’d all love to reinvent our wardrobes each season, it’s difficult if not impossible to do so on a college budget. The secret is to add a few key, on-trend pieces to your already existing wardrobe of basics and last season’s favorites. For Spring 2012, color is key. Candy-colored pieces were all...
Friday Favorite: Upgrade Your Up-Do
A classic lazy girl favorite that has taken on a runway twist recently is the up-do. What used to be the two second “toss your hair in a bun on the way to class” trend can now be worn as a chic nighttime look with minimum effort. The best way to make this look trendy...
Friday Favorite: Post-Party Skin Cure
We all have those days where we might have had a bit too much to drink the night before or stayed up a bit too late. We wake up the next morning looking, well, rough. Sometimes we are fortunate and don’t have anything to do, so we can hang around and not worry about how...
Friday Favorite: Under Eye Wonder
They happen to the best of us. Even to those with seemingly perfect complexions passed down from genetically perfect parents. No, I am not talking about acne. The menace I am referencing is the dreaded under eye circle. After a night out, or even a night at the library, it seems as though my under...
Friday Favorite: Winter Skin Prep
With the joy and excitement of the holiday season come the long, cold days of winter. As much as I love to enjoy the crisp outdoor weather while skiing in Utah or snuggling by the fire at home, the effects of the fierce wind and intense heat on my sensitive skin are less than pleasurable....
Friday Favorite: Treat Yourself to a Lazy Hair Day
As much as we all like to believe that we have the time and energy to wake up every day, take a shower, blow dry and straighten/curl our hair, apply our makeup, and then go to class, this is simply not the case. In fact, the sad truth is that I consider it to be...
Friday Favorite: Don’t Make Me Blush
For years I considered blush to be a very overrated item. I thought, why do I need to buy something to give me a look that I can achieve by simply receiving a compliment or pinching my cheeks? That may be true with some blushes, but until I discovered Tom Ford’s new beauty line, I...
Friday Favorite: Primed for a Flawless Fall
I have a confession: I am obsessed with Pinterest. Pinterest is a virtual pinboard community where you can organize photos that inspire you and share them with other Pinterest members. It is extremely addictive, and naturally browsing and pinning to fashion and beauty pinboards has become one...
Friday Favorite: Perfectly Undone
Joey Maloof, the man behind Rachel Zoe’s bohemian, effortlessly glamorous hair on The Rachel Zoe Project, recently shared some tips on ways to achieve Rachel’s gorgeous locks on Refinery29.com. He shared many tips to achieving this “perfectly undone” look, mainly using one of my favorite products: Sheer Hold Hairspray by Frederick Fekkai. The spray keeps locks...
Friday Favorites: The Smokey Eye
At UGA, fall is fancy party season. We have sorority date nights, semiformals, parents’ weekends, and fraternity events and parties that keep our schedules jam-packed. Since most of these events take place at night, our evening makeup looks are naturally a bit more fancy than our daytime looks, and they also must transition into the...
Georgia Glam: UGA Date Auction & Fashion Show
This past week, the RTR College Team continued their campus tour by visiting the University of Georgia Rent the Runway team in Athens, Georgia. The visit began with a tabling event in the main student quad, Tate Plaza, with the team passing out hot pink RTR wayfarers, RTR stickers, and discount codes to use for...
Friday Favorite: Branch out with a Braid
I don’t know about you, but for basically every night out, sorority semi-formal, or dress-up function in general, I always wear my hair one of two ways: straight and down, or curled and down. While recently doing some Facebook stalking, I realized that for my next big night out, I really need to change something....
