String theory advances philosophy. No, really.

I have a soft side, and I don�t mean my Snoopy pants, though there is that. I mean I have a liking for philosophy because there are so many questions that physics can�t answer. I never get far with my philosophical ambitions though because the only reason I can see for leaving a question to philosophers is that the question itself is the problem. Take for example the question �What is real?�

FASHION: LUX ON A BUDGET

Hi Lovelies! Sami from The Unexpected Type here to talk about keeping your fashion ultra-lux while on a college girl�s budget! Fashion influences the lives of many�who doesn�t want to walk around wearing the latest Dior? I�ll raise my hand to that! Budgets remain to be a questionable issue in the industry to whether it really is the key to true style. Trust me, it�s not!

So many expert fashionistas are mixing high and low, or even going low-end all around to show that true style isn�t in the price of the piece, but how you wear it. As a girl who once struggled on the impending college student budget, I learned a few tricks along the way that will keep you looking like a million bucks under $100 (seriously!)

Go Dainty

Dainty, minimalistic jewelry can get pricey, fast.The trend of simple jewelry started last year and accessorizing with minimal pieces is booming this year. You can find really simple pieces pretty much anywhere for under $5. Forever21 may be lacking in the quality of clothing, but their $3 dainty necklaces and bracelets will make up for that! I get compliments on my minimal pieces from F21 all the time�my priceless secret!

Grab a Clutch

All that hardware on your bag can make it look cheap or tacky. The hardware can wear away pretty fast, too, leaving tattered remains of a chain that once was (yikes!) Detach the extra chains and ditch the hardware for a super sleek clutch. You�ll go from �eh� in the accessories department to �Fashion Editor� with a capital F.

Upgrade Your Denim

I used to be the girl who bought a cheap piece of denim just because my favorite designer pair was getting worn way too many times only one way. Invest in a good pair of jeans! It�ll save you money, since you won�t be buying the cheapo�s every once in awhile. Try buying a pair of boyfriend or skinnies. You can cuff, roll, unroll, and tuck into many different options and lengthen the life of your denim wear.

Get Monochromatic

All black, all white, all grey, even camel. Opt for one color in cool proportions and textures to create a super cool look everyone will be drooling over. It�s actually fun to put monochromatic looks together�it feels like a challenge! Did I mention how chic this is right now?

Get Creative With Accessories

Your favorite silk scarf just turned into a purse accent Monday-Wednesday and a hairband Thursday and Friday. Reusing your accessories in interesting ways adds a very unexpected touch that will have people waiting to see exactly what you do next. You get more use out of your pieces and still make a style statement!

How to make a white dwarf go supernova

Black holes seem to be the most obvious explanation for the finding that galaxies harbor �dark� matter that doesn�t emit light but that makes itself noticeable by its gravitational pull. While the simplicity of the idea is appealing, we know that it is wrong. Black holes are so compact that they cause noticeable gravitational lensing, and our observations of gravitational lensing events allow to

Cool Mom. Cool Diaper Bag.

Ok, so now that I'm a mom, I'm on the hunt for a diaper bag.

Yes, it's a bit late...why? Well, you see....I've been using one of my bigger handbags as a diaper bag. I'm quickly discovering there aren't enough compartments to put everything in!  Very annoying when you're out with your baby on a long stroll & find yourself digging around your BIG handbag for a small pacifier etc.

Now after searching and searching online I've come across some great options that are not only stylish but functional. Let's face it, there are some UGLY diaper bags out there.  I just can't see myself holding a bag that feels like I'm hauling around a clown outfit.  No offense but...."Dear designers, please make nicer diaper bags."  In the meanwhile I've got a few I'd recommend - some not-so-affordable and some are.

As of right now I'm looking at #2 , a black quilted diaper bag by StorkSak. This bag is pretty cool....has all the necessary pockets & then some.

Moms, take note...this is def a cool bag!

DESIGN: BEAUTIFUL BOOK SHELF ACCESSORIES

When it comes to storage at home, we can make it just storage or create a beautiful space to display our books, art and home decor and add a little personality to our space. There is so many stylish bookshelves on the market to chose from and when styled, they'll bring a totally new look to any living room! I personally love bright and colorful bookshelves, full of accessories, personal items and vintage finds, a statement element of the room.

Here is one you might get inspired by and some happy home decor ideas below!

GIN CHIA

Two ancient herbs: golden chia from the West and ginseng from the East, combine to create a modern miracle - Forever� Gin-Chia�. Let this powerful combination of herbs give your body back what your busy lifestyle takes out!

Golden Chia, or North American Sage, was used by southwest Native American Indians in the US at the turn of the century for its life-sustaining properties. Chia contains healthful polyunsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber, and protein.

Ginseng is legendary as a tonic,
earning its name as the �King of Tonics.� It contains saponins, making ginseng an adaptogen (a compound that adapts its effects depending on the needs of the body). Ginseng is also a potent antioxidant.

Together these two legendary herbs pack a powerful punch to help you get through the day.

• Powerful antioxidant
• Can help increase stamina and endurance
• Helps support healthy circulation

The Maxi Dress

Spring time arrived in NYC - but yesterday it felt more like Summer. WOAH, it was HOT. Especially if you're walking around for a bit... 

During this time of year I jump online and hunt down the best fitting maxi dresses. Maxi dresses can start at $26 and go upwards of $300. Crazy, I know.  Two Summers ago I bought 3 maxi dresses & ended up spending about $100 each.  Now I look around & realize there are some really great fitting ones for the half the price. Go figure. 

It pays to shop around & one of my fave places to shop dresses is BooHoo.  Seriously, you cannot beat their prices!  If you scroll down you'll notice the long black (form-fitting) maxi I wore this past  weekend, it was only $26!! They have a ton of other cute options but I felt this was the best fit for me. In case you're wondering it's number 4 (below) and I'm a size 4.  

I love this style of dress...I must admit when I'm feeling lazy or don't have time to shave my legs, this dress is ideal. Ha.

So, tell me are you into maxi dresses? Which is your fave?
