"I love Thanksgiving turkey... it's the only time in Los Angeles that you see natural breasts." -Arnold Schwarzenegger

-Somehow by the grace of God I didn't inherit my uncle's genes. He reminded me to be thankful for having a fashion sense. I guess that's what family is for.

"Bacteria" - the back door to the cafeteria

-UGA alum Deborah Norville of Inside Edition, looks professional and stylish on campus today. She sure makes all bulldogs proud. The show is scheduled to be aired tonight at 7:30 pm. (check it out at www.insideedition.com in case you miss it).
-Rob (20, from Atlanta, GA) wears an old school winter sweater from one of my favorite thrift stores, Potter's House. I love the look for less, and he looks too legit to quit.
-Frank (28, from Rostock, Germany) and Melanie (22, from Berlin, Germany) import colorful and horizontal stripes in a very eclectic way. I'm absolutely digging their casual and fun style.
-Congratulations, you got out of bed. Now let us work on getting you some real pants. For goodness sake, sweatpants are a better alternative than pajamas.

-Jack (22, from Augusta, GA) drops it like it's hot in the cold with his swanky sunglasses and bright shoes.
-The trendy girl and the preppy guy, an Athens staple. Lauren (20, from Norcross, GA) and John (22, from Atlanta, GA) walk downtown looking cool and laid-back.
-This woman wears a camoflauge jacket and wraps herself in a camo blanket. Bless her soul for loving this print so much.
-Its not just "Georgia cold" outside. Keep your neck warm with a pashmina (pronounced pash-mi-na: is a scarf/wrap made of cashmere and silk) They are perfect to brighten up dreary winter clothes. Available at Menagerie, you can get one for $20 or three for $50. They are great to own and give.

Wear this and I guarantee you will lose friends.

-The newest Japanese export is making it's way to America. "Bikini jeans" give you the visible thong look without worrying about it disappearing. Seriously. If these end up creeping onto the streets of Athens, I officially grant you the right to slap the perpetrator in the face. That is an order.

Look like Barbie: zero plastic surgery required.

When I was a kid, the Dead Sea was only sick.

-Kate (21, from Norcross, GA) embodies fall fashion and looks absolutely fantastic doing it. She demonstrates the beauty of pairing vintage clothing with everyday pieces (scarf and cowboy boots from Agora). She seems like someone you want to be seen grabbing coffee with. No, really, it is $2 latte day at Espresso Royale...anyone would be lucky to grab one with this fashionista.
-When does it end? I have tried to turn a blind eye at shorts and Uggs...but this is where I can't ignore the reality of this rampant epidemic. Daisy Duke neglected to patch up her shorts, which would be fine with some leggings underneath. However, she decided her butt cheek should be exposed. This is an example of BAD TASTE.
-Jeff (20, from Roswell, GA)makes geek-chic look terrific. Is he a model for GQ? Is he a regular UGA student? I really have no idea, he looks so good the possibilities are endless.
-Kelli (20,from Houston, TX) is decked out head-to-toe in adorable new arrivals from McColly's. You would be a fool to neglect the savings ahead: 20% off Nov. 10-16, 15% Nov. 15-23, and 10% off Nov. 24-30....shop online at www.shopmccollys.com and enter code "holiday20" ("holiday15" and "holiday10" for the following weeks.) I mean, come on, this is the opportunity of a lifetime.
-Eric (23, from Atlanta, GA) is daring yet tasteful in his magenta...and oh my he looks so good. The layers are perfect, I love his sleek and audacious look.
-With all the hoopla in Athens, I'm surprised this guy could get such heavy shut eye. I guess if you're tired enough, sleep is of the essence.

The ultimate tacky car decal face-off...

-I have no idea, I think it must be a tie. They are all equally bad.

I get to go overseas to places, like Canada. -Britney Spears

-Maggie (21, from Athens, GA) looks stunning as she effortlessly pulls off a Marcel Dechet one-of-a-kind jean dress (pairing it with a vintage 60's mod sequin cap and Zodiac sparkly boots). Boda (24, from Charleston, SC) makes cowboy fashion look devilishly handsome in this vintage fringe jacket by Chris Line. All items are at Menagerie, the new upscale vintage store downtown. Going in is like playing dress up in the coolest closet in town. Menagerie is jam-packed with fun and rare designs, all with a unique story to tell.
-This woman (who I believe to be in her mid 40's) bleeds orange and blue…and coincidentally makes my eyes bleed as I look at this shirt/dress/hot mess.
-Kate (22, from Pittsburgh, PA) can pay a meter and buy a pair of shoes with only $1. That’s right, her shoes were 50 cents. The rest of her outfit may have cost a little bit more, but she mixes and matches fun pieces to cater to her individual style.

-The problem with college is that there aren't teachers or authority figures to regulate appropriate skirt length. I am almost positive her grandmother would not approve of this. Cover it up, darling.
-Erin (26, from Marietta, GA) is modeling the perfect seasonal accessory to make her outfit stand out. The charming oak leaf necklace is hand dipped in 24-karat Dahlonega gold by jewelry designer Caroli. These inimitable accessories are a great way to liven up turtlenecks and plain winter clothes. (Other nifty leaves and foliage dipped in gold and iridescent copper versions are available at The Red Dress Boutique).

-Halie (19, from Fayetteville, GA), Patrick (18, from Mobile, GA), and Bora (18, from Atlanta, GA) experience the shift in America and demonstrate how people should look like no matter the occasion. I love everything (and then some) about these three and even if it wasn't election night, they make me proud to be a young American.
-Rachel (20, from Marietta, GA) may not have a YouTube video, but I think she can be dubbed an Obama girl.
-Ben (29, from Athens, GA), Remy (7 dog years, from Savannah, GA) and Stephen (29, from Athens, GA) are fashionably waiting for political results. Despite Remy's red bandana- he is almost a borderline communist because he loves to share everything with his pet pals. But in America, he is a Leftist and got an extra doggy treat over last night's victory. His owners aren't looking too shabby either...the three of them are fun eye candy.
-Dylan (25, from Athens, GA) makes casual sophistication look so easy. He carries confidence and masculinity like its his job.
-Celebration at Georgia Theater, rejoicing for America is always in style.

-"Paulie Bleeker" John (25, from Chattanooga, TN) and "Juno MacGuff" Lydia (26, from Chattanooga, TN) nosh on Tic-Tacs and Sunny-D and make us all envy their off-beat and quirky relationship. That baby is going to be so badass.

-Wookie hottie Chewbacca, Sinclair (20, from Dalton, GA) relaxes on his time off from the Millenium Falcon and savors his time away from Han Solo.

-"Dog the Bounty Hunter" Jeff (25, from Atlanta, GA) is catching fugitives and some rays all at once. So hardcore, yet so handsome...how does he do it?

-Has Truett Cathy started a new campaign for Budweiser??? The Chick-Fil-A Beer Cow has gotten thirsty as Whitney, 21, Duluth, GA advertises to the world.
