Eleganza Week

Posted by on March 29, 2011 at 12:03 am

Eleganza, a major fashion and dance show produced by Harvard students, is having two events this week in order to raise funds for the show, which will take place during Prefrosh weekend.

Tuesday, March 29th – Designer Jewelry Sale

What: Branded jewelry from Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Ann Taylor, J. Crew, Anthropologie, and others, normally priced at up to $200, are going for $8-$25.

Where: Democracy Center, 45 Mt. Auburn street (next to Daedalus restaurant)

When: 4-7pm

Click here for the Facebook event.

Thursday, March 31st -
Model Auction

What: Bid for a date with one of their student models, some of whom are featured here.

Looks are presented by Rent the Runway, a company run by Harvard Business School graduates that allows members to rent or buy runway looks at reduced prices. (Promotional code HARVARD15, for $15 off of orders of $75 or more.)

Where: The Hasty Pudding Club, 2 Garden Street

When: 8-11pm

There might be an open bar. There definitely will be a very well-dressed and preppy crowd. There’s also a $10 suggested donation at the door. And you thought you could get into the Pudding without at least some financial clout.

The point of this post is that beauty doesn’t come cheap. But you should definitely come.

Winter Inspirations: Layering

Posted by on February 24, 2011 at 5:28 pm

Layering, it’s a neglected art in these parts. Listen up Harvard, layering does not mean wearing your North Face puffer over whatever it is you decided to wear to section that day. It’s about wearing an outfit, not a strictly utilitarian cocoon of warmth to get you from here to Northwest Labs.

And ladies, balance it out. Leggings as pants, fine. But if you’ve just got on tights (God forbid you’re bare-legged in February) and your top half looks like you’re smuggling a couple Sherpas you may need to consider some heavier-duty bottoms. Same goes for guys in shorts this time of year; they don’t make you look casual and nonchalant, they make you look lost.

Below are some gorgeous examples of coordinated winter layers in neutral tones. An easy change from the ubiquitous black puffers and peacoats.

Winter Inspirations: Don’t Wait for Spring!

Posted by on February 7, 2011 at 7:52 pm

Even strawberry earrings can be in-style when the fruit is out of season.

Winter Fashion Tip #2: Don’t let your seasonal statement pieces wait ’til spring!

While you don’t have to be as daring as example above, don’t let the winter weather stifle your style. Layer both cold and warm weather duds for a look that stays light through the season. Layer a chiffon frock over heavy tights or leggings, tie a silk scarf in your hair (or over the ears as makeshift earmuffs), use a seersucker tie, or rock a denim button-down as a sneaky substitute for an Oxford one. Be adventurous, baby—just don’t overdo it and bust out the flippy-floppies in the middle of February!

Winter Inspirations: A Little Extra Drama

Posted by on February 2, 2011 at 6:02 pm

Red lips by Annika M. from lookbook.nu

Winter Fashion Tip #1: Now’s the time for a little extra drama.

Dramatic makeup that is. If you can’t seem to get out of your heavy black coat and boots all the time, add some weather proof makeup for a look that works both indoors and out. Be bold, go for rich, saturated colors that compliment your skin tone. Winter is the best time for a little more makeup since it won’t melt off of your face and the dull conditions mean you can pull off a bit more color than usual. If you want a little understated drama, a bright, nourishing  lipstick can be found at CVS on the cheap— and it will also protect your precious lips from the harsh weather.

For guys who aren’t too into this gendered tip, this is also a great time for grabbing a new pair of sunglasses. Try something different (read: dramatic), like a pair of glasses with an astronautical mirrored gold lens. While it makes some real hip sense to wear these now to protect from snow glare, the same pair will read rather douche-y come springtime.

Bryanboy Was Here

Posted by on January 4, 2011 at 4:23 am

Bryanboy outside of the Harvard Lampoon.

This is certainly more exciting than seeing Pauly D in the square, if only for the clothes. Apparently Fashion 2.0′s greatest blogger, Bryanboy, recently graced our campus with his eminent ferocity. Swinging around the super-coveted Alexa Mulberry bag and all layered up in coop gear, he definitely gives us all no excuse to come back to campus looking like we usually do. Work it, Bryanboy. We <3 You!
