Why is Charlie short for Charles if they are both the same number of letters?

nina-Dayuuuum, Mina (21, from Lawrenceville, GA) has got it going on. I want to read the Cliff Notes about her style and skills, because this grade A chick makes any boring class a pleasure.

mess

-A new low for society: sweatpants with heels. The lack of function is truly mind boggling.

john-Nick (21, from Gwinnett, GA) gives handsome a whole new meaning. As a connoisseur of men’s fashion, he writes/blogs/photographs about what is and should be in style. He even designs his own line of neckwear (including his tie).. yea, calm down, he’s the real deal.

layerzz-Fall is in the air and I can already smell the absurd fashion statements. Here is a disoriented darling who got a little too excited about the fickle weather and went overboard with the layering.

barbie

-Molly Ringwald was a poor but fashion-conscious new wave chick… and this is nothing like the movie. This victim is not so pretty in pink.
baby got back

-Baby got back at 11 am on campus. If you are going backless, a good rule of thumb is to keep it after hours… and for God’s sake, get appropriate undergarments.

If God dwells inside us like some people say, I sure hope he likes enchiladas, because that’s what he’s getting.

Ruby

-Ruby (21, from Brunswick, GA) has the look that every girl wants- easy, breezy, beautiful… and with her height and natural beauty she should literally be a cover girl.

big daddy

-Yes, yes y’all. This is the definition of style.

boots-Taking the term “flood pants” to a whole new level.

Etienne

-Etienne (22, from Rio De Janeiro, Brazil) takes America’s biggest chain store and adds an ironic political spin with everyone’s favorite communist: Vladimir Lenin. Back in the USSR… That Georgia’s always on my my my my my my my my my mind

Zach-Like, OMG, Zach Galifianakis is totally studying a script for his next major role at Espresso Royale. Don’t tell the paparazzo he is hiding in Athens.

Marlyncia

-Marlyncia (20, from Atlanta, GA) makes a rainy day positive with a shirt of female empowerment. You go girl!

tranny-This hot tranny mess is coming at you with full force, so watch out or she will run you over with her hodgepodge of tasteless accessories. Woof.

283

-If you are a real Athenian then you know the value of drinking in style. It goes far beyond the alcohol content- it’s about the righteous culture, topnotch people, the warm ambiance- basically the entire experience. So, instead of ordering a mainstream High Life or PBR, get a noteworthy drink this Thursday (and every Thursday) at 283 Bar for their “exclusive and new to downtown Athens beer selection.” Variety is the spice of life so come get a sip (or two… or three…)

-Bright orange suits aren’t very flattering, so you must be 21 to indulge. And duuuh- make sure you get a snazzy designated driver to take your stylish self home. Cheers to that!

DJ Alfredo-Here is DJ Alfredo of Immuzikation and some of his out of town guests sipping on some heavenly hops. You can catch him relaxing by chance, or you can intentionally see him this Saturday the 19th at  283. Party time. Excellent.

This weeks special array of tasty brewskies:

Einbecker Mai Urbock 11.2oz -The Maibock style is a pale version of  traditional bock. But ain’t nothing pale about it.

Efes Pilsner 12oz – Pilsner from Istanbul,Turkey (gobble, gobble)

Avery Kaiser Imperial Octoberfest 22oz- The Kaiser once said, “Give me a woman who loves beer and I will conquer the world.” If the Kaiser and his significant other had tipped this bottle, we’d all be ”Wir sprechen Deutsch!”

283 Bar- 283 Broad Street

Mad for plaid-Common fashion sense should rule this out, but for this gentleman he feels otherwise. Plaid on plaid: a very bold move.

fuggs-It is only the beginning of September and the creatures are emerging from hibernation: the glorious spectacle that is Uggs with running shorts and a Vera Bradley bag.

3 piece-This. Is. A. Hot. Mess.

Hanna-In Athens, it is a natural transition from youngster to hipster with the eclectic culture and outstanding music scene. Hanna (12, from Athens, GA) is a perfect example of adorable age-appropriate style. As a fan of local band, The Modern Skirts, her look is music to the ears and eyes.

Geeks

-This dorky duo are true inspiration behind geek chic. They can dress however they want because they will one day take over the world. All your base are belong to us.

FUPA

-First FUPA sighting of Fall 2009. Keep ‘em coming…

Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant?? I’m halfway through my fish burger and I realize, Oh man….I could be eating a slow learner

-This poor girl messed with Sasquatch and it looks like she didn’t come out a winner. If you or anyone you know owns these ridiculous shoes, please seek help. Immediately.

-Emily (23, from Athens, GA) keeps things hot with her rocking look and a tasty cup o’ joe. This (extra)ordinary townie coordinates her boyfriend’s tee with fun essentials: bucket hat, suspenders, matching gray booties- meaningful, casual, and badass.

-I commend her fearlessness to embrace her God given gifts… unfortunately her “confidence” is distasteful and whoever she is dialing is probably not too interested in what she thinks about politics. Ladies, if you got it: flaunt it. However, if you have too much, save yourself from public humiliation and cover up zee tatas.

Alcohol and calculus don’t mix. Never drink and derive.

-I think it is fair to say that Susie (21, from Decatur, GA) is easy on the eyes. She is a girl always on the go, but that doesn’t hold her back on dressing stupendous. She looks comfortable and not overdone… my favorite kind of school style.

-Ahoy John! (20, originally from Würzburg, Germany) who sets sail in high seas fashion. All sailing jokes aside, he brings a charismatic look and attitude to the cheerful streets of Athens. He is also the best dressed mariner on the poop deck.

-Jessica (21, from Augusta, GA) is a clean cut cutie with a a fantastic eye for color. The Georgia peach wears a vintage silk scarf in a modern and tasteful way. To imitate this easy look and other techniques, check out this video, you’d be surprised how useful a scrap of fabric can be. Yeehawww.

Think outside the box… choose cremation!

-”And the way he roll, just a rebel to the world with no place to go. So we kick, push kick, push kick, push kick, push coast….” Larry’s (31, from Portland, OR) motivation to look good is to wake up and let the day’s mood navigate what he is wearing. Thrift store shirt + colorful sneakers + fly shades = the simple hipster’s everyday look.


-Sleeping- anywhere and everywhere, it is always in style. You go girl.

-If Courtney Love didn’t get addicted to various narcotics and lost all sight of reality, she would probably resemble Gabriella (21, from Amherst, VA). Acid washed green jeans defies the rules of fashion and puts her on a level of innovation and true originality.
