WHAT TO WEAR TO: LATE NIGHTS AT THE LIBRARY

Almost every time I go to the library, hair unwashed and cowering in the face of a midterm, I inevitably wind up in the study carrel next to that boy I flirted with last night or in the café by an ex-fling. Let’s face it: the library is Northwestern’s most active late night hotspot.

WINTER WHITE? NOT SO FAST: WHITE-HOT SUMMER WARES
