Gems on Gems – Pick of the Week!

Coco Chanel is famous not just for her physical contributions to the world of fashion. She is also well-known for her gems of style wisdom. A common favorite quote expresses Chanel’s minimalist style: “Before leaving the house, a lady should stop, look in the mirror and remove one piece of jewelry.” As much as I … Continue reading

It’s All in the Details – Pick of the Week!

The BC Sartorialist and I were in unanimous agreement when it came to choosing the BCxRR Pick of the Week- Giuliana Zaccardelli. I met this lovely lady during my Freshman Orientation, as we shared the same suite in Vanderslice Hall.

Confident and Carefree: Pick of the Week

Adrienne

I find Adrienne, the BCxRR and BC Sartorialist Pick of the Week, to be truly fashion-forward, ironically, in her decision to wear the most generic accessory of all, the UGG boot. It is normally worn as the finishing touch on a standard North Face jacket, skinny jean, and Longchamp bag combo. The shoe that I … Continue reading

The sunshine induced many Boston College students to lay out in the sunshine, “work”, and show off their new spring outfits. Luckily, Alex Lee, the noted BC Sartorialist, … Continue reading

We make love with words. I mean to words. Either way, this wasn’t what I meant to say…

We make love with words. I mean to words. Either way, this wasn’t what I meant to say. Next time you’re in the library, a classroom, or even a bathroom stall, notice some of the things people write and reflect on them…many are truly beautiful. xoxo, Caitlin

We don’t just drool over fashion…

This week, I decided to be adventurous.  I decided that I was going to branch out and get more creative in every aspect of my life, from my own personal style to the way I organize my closet.  One of the ways this manifested itself is through my grocery shopping and cooking experiments.  I’m determined … Continue reading

Dressing for Success: It’s Interview Week

The first few weeks back at school in January can be a kind of extended “internship hell week” for students, especially juniors. Having gotten a taste of the internship hunt last year as a sophomore, I am back this year with my game face on. Last week was full of information sessions, interview preparation (BC’s Career … Continue reading
