Northeastern's Own American Apparel Girl Parties Like It's 1988

Astute NUOTR readers will remember our favorite hipster starlet: American Apparel girl. So, logically, whenever some new photos surface, we can't help but post them. Really love the lightning bolt design here and of course, the acid washed jeans: It's 1988 all over again. Can't wait until these show up on a billboar.

Latest comment by The Torch: The blonde is the same girl.

Not so sure who her blue-bathing-suit-and-acid-washed-jean-clad companion is.
Northeastern Fashion Blogger Strikes Back with Dance Night
This isn't the first time we've blogged about Northeastern's new I-think-I-Know-Everything-About-Fashion photo blogger SusieG -- but now she's stepping up her game and hosting a dance party at the Middlesex Lounge in Cambridge.

It's up to you if you want to attend, but really, wh... MORE »

Dov Charney: Probably Not The Next "Light On The Hill" Recipient
American Apparel stores may be sprouting up faster than you can say "lamé spandex tank thong," but turns out that the company might not be doing so well. A recent profile in the Wall Street Journal revealed numerous financial troubles, including inflated profits, decre... MORE »
Latest comment by The Merry Widow: @ The Misanthropist: Damn.

I would totes support him as a commencement speaker, though. He'd probably do it in his briefs, too.
Lewis Hall: Where Good Hygiene Goes To Die
If your friend who lives in Lewis is a little ... shall we say ... funky, this week, don't worry. They have a reason: showers are being turned off "until completion of project."

Yesterday, Lewis residents enjoyed being shower-less "from 9:00 am until completion," and this Tuesday, they'll get t... MORE »
New Blogger Catches Photos of the "Hip" on NU's Campus
Since when did Northeastern become Brooklyn? Or to a lesser extent Allston?

Turns out Northeastern's got it's own fashion blogger -- well sort of. "SusieG" has been on the prowl documenting what she considers good fashion. She's caught a few recognizable folks (that girl with the slanty b... MORE »

Girl + Talk = Nudity + Tazers; You Do The Math
So, Girl Talk will be arriving on campus on Thursday for Concert Board's Hip-SterHop Show. You're all pissing in your pants of happiness. But, on Thursday, make sure that you actually wear pants to piss in.

That guy didn't.

And, as a result, the WashU St.L student got his (literal) ass taser... MORE »

Thou Shall Rock'eth
Just when you thought the Ithaca music scene was over (or at least rid of those horrible emo groups), the Cornell Concert Commission succeeds, bringing us not one, but two awesome bands.

On November 11, Broken Social Scene (of incestuous Canadian-pop fame) and Yo La Tengo (of surprisingly awesome New Jerseyness) will co... MORE »

Having A Short Facebook Is The New Having A Long Facebook
Take note you hipster wannabes! Listing every band you're into is so 2006. The new way to prove you're cool is to not list ANY and instead replace all categories with some sort of apathetic statement proving that you don't care about anything.

The fact that you don't need to broa... MORE »

Ex-Northeastern Girl Becomes Professional Hipster
Northeastern isn't for everyone.

Doesn't a life of vodka tonics, living in Paris, and working for a trendy-hipster-clothing-store-that-needn't-be-mentioned sound better?

It did to this waif. It looks like she's spending her days rolling around on dirty floors and wearing hoodies a... MORE »
