Most affordable, and a personal favorite, are the accessories (see the Choker Necklace in Black, $12.95, and the Triangle Pendant Necklace in Gold, $12.95). On the other end of the spectrum is the footwear, which ranges from laid back loafers to over-the-knee boots.

Sneak Peek: AEO Summer 2016 Collection

by Rachael Comeau

American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) for summer 2016 has a range of trends that you’ll be in the mood for when the season arrives, such as chambray, boho, crochet, and “borrowed from the boys.” Laid-back and easy-going encompasses the mood of this collection, with the inclusion of flowing wide leg bottoms, strappy sandals, loose fitting beach coverups, and peasant blouses. A usual staple for AEO, denim, is also prominent in the summer look book. Paired with colorful bohemian prints, stamped statement necklaces, and lace trimmed tanks and tees, it’s a look anyone can get on board with. In the accessories department, summer 2016 features woven sun hats, oversized sunglasses, and printed tote bags, all perfect for the beach.

With prices ranging from $16 to $159, it’s a cinch to find a piece or two that will quickly and affordably update a summer wardrobe. Most tops are priced somewhere in the middle (see the Lace Inset Cami, slide 12, $29.95), as is the denim (see the High Rise Festival Shorties, slide 15, $49.95). Most affordable are the accessories, like the super on-trend sunglasses in both tortoise and aviator styles ($15.95).

Since according to Punxsutawney Phil, spring is just a few short months away, and once the summer heat kicks in, these on-trend filmy blouses and short shorts will feel all the more delightful.

Setting Bag Boundaries

by Julia DiNardo

P1100956
In New York City, when your body functions basically as a car, using your own two feet to largely get you around, weaving in and out of human traffic and dodging any other obstacles in the way, carrying multiple bags is more of a hazard and less of a convenience. Especially on the subway when, at any point in time, you may be pressed against a minimum of four other humans, consolidating your stuff into one generously-sized bag is ideal.

In this week of extra chaos in the rush right before Christmas, I’ve been using the Dooney & Burke Newbury Suede Sloan Hobo bag in Brown, which neatly organizes and keeps secure my essentials, thanks to the its inside pockets, key hook, and zipper closure while channeling a slightly retro, ’70s vibe. There’s also plenty of room for a few extras, such as my workout clothes, a water bottle, and even space left over to conceal a small gift.

I can’t really predict what the new year may have in store for me or what to expect in 2016, but I do know that I can rely on this bag to contain whatever I need to be prepared for it!
