I have to admit: I'm a huge sucker for vintage movies (i.e. movies from the Golden Age of Hollywood.) The actors seem more charismatic and convincing, the stories are more encapsulating, and of course, the costumes are more glamorous. No matter which movie I watch, I can't help but inspect the clothing. Here are 5 of my favorite aesthetically pleasing vintage movies.

1. "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"

Hate the title, love the wardrobe. I can't get enough of Dorothy Shaw's style (pictured on the right); I honestly hope that someday I'll be able to own clothing with even half as much class. And don't even get me started on the big dance number at the end. Talk about a show-stopping dress!

2. "How To Marry A Millionaire"

Two Marilyn Monroe movies in a row? Of course. She has unparalleled style no doubt, but the true star was Schatze Page, played by Lauren Bacall. Everything she wore in that movie was stunning in its own way, and stood out with a certain sophistication that the other girls lacked. (I could do without the shoes, though.)

3. "Gone With The Wind"

Even though Scarlett O'Hara infuriates me beyond belief, I had to include this classic. Every single character had clothing that matched who they were and their scenario perfectly. Hats off to the stylist.

4. "Sabrina"

One of my favorite films by one of my favorite fashion icons, Audrey Hepburn is a vision in this movie. The costumes stand out to me not only because of how iconic they are, but also because of their simplicity. Need I say more?

5. "My Fair Lady"

Yes, another Audrey Hepburn movie. This one is almost the polar opposite of "Sabrina," though. The gowns are utterly resplendent and fit for a princess (hint hint wink wink.) I can only dream of wearing dresses like that...

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
