    CollegeCandy Helps Find The Perfect (and Stretchy) Outfits ...

    The two things I love most about fall are the food and the fashion, which means Thanksgiving is a major jackpot. I get to dress up all cute and stuff my face with turkey. It's wonderful... for the first ten minutes. Then my stomach begins to protrude over my skintight mini and I start having a hard time breathing. Undoubtedly I end up taking an intermission, putting on my stretchy sweatpants, then heading back for seconds. But it doesn't have to be that way. It's possible to look cute and eat until you're curled up on the couch in a food coma. You just have to choose your outfit wisely. I've combed through this season's hottest trends and built outfits that are holiday appropriate, both in how they look and how they stretch to fit the 5 lbs of stuffing you will inevitably inhale. And I'm sure enjoying Thanksgiving dinner without the need to unbutton your pants at the table is something we can all be thankful for this year.

    Hot In The Hive: Food Print Bowls

    Have you ever been tricked by a mirror? No, I'm not talking about those dressing room mirrors that make anyone look like Gisele. I'm talking about mirrored walls that make rooms look bigger or half-filled mirrored bowls that make it seem like it's filled with endless treats. Yup, I've definitely gotten tricked by mirrors! This time, it's not a mirror that has tricked me, but trompe l'oeil print instead. I found these food print bowls from Dutch by Design and was instantly charmed by them. The outside of the bowls look quite ordinary, but once you peek inside, a convincing print of popcorn, chips, salad greens, french fries, and more can be seen. I can imagine filling the popcorn bowl with popcorn and watching my friends try and get the last kernel only to be tricked! The hard part is deciding which one to get!


    Price: $16

    Hot In The Hive: Ritz Cracker Necklace

    If you ever stop by the Stylehive office, you'll probably hear most of us talking about food rather than fashion. Shocking, I know! But we're always gabbing about the latest restaurant we've gone to or all the macaron flavors we want to try. So it's no surprise that I have a jewelry collection that matches my food obsession. From strawberry earrings to a gumball-like necklace, the cuter and more delicious looking, the better! I found the Ritz Cracker necklace recently and knew I had to get it. From afar it just looks like a round disc, but look closer and it's a Ritz cracker with little salt flakes and all! Remember, when you're starving, don't bite into your necklace unless you want to chip your tooth. And if a Ritz cracker charm isn't enough, try a saltine necklace too!


    Price: $24

    Modern Luxury on Jul 19, 2009 1:37 PM PDT
    English fits the need for an upscale bar and restaurant in downtown Chicago's trendy River North area. Housed in a 120-year-old building, English stretches through three floors of ultimate party atmosphere. The bar also serves lunch and dinner, but you'll find the most crowds here at night, when the hot-spot really comes to life! The best part? You can rent out a single floor for just your crew; each floor holds 100 people and comes equipped with its own private bar.

    Sexy, eclectic and bold, just a few words that come to mind as you step inside the ultra chic Gitane restaurant in downtown San Francisco. The French word for "Gypsy," Gitane's decor was inspired from three different decades, a complimentary environment to its irresistible cuisine. The Mediterranean fare is inspired by Spain, France and Portugal, but it's not just the dishes that leave you craving more. The sultry ambiance of the space-- everything from the murals imported from Istanbul to the massive chandeliers that hang from the ceiling-- leave you tantalized. The expansive cocktail list of sherries, cavas, madeiras and Spanish brandies is the perfect pairing to accompany the menu.
