43 CommentsWell, Teen Vogue.
The newly famous
If you were impressed with your ability to change from pajamas into baggy sweatpants for (most of) the past three weeks, re-evaluate your wardrobe skills. The Columbia and Barnard students–including CCSC President Karishma Habbu–who got profiled by Teen Vogue this finals season managed not only to make themselves presentable, but what some (a.k.a the biggest fashion name in the country) would call stylish. The criteria seem to involve artfully baggy sweaters, grungy boots, and “two-toned’ things. View the slideshow here, and get ready to be impressed by how many layers people are able to put on when they wake up on time. But seriously, congrats for keeping it together, street stylists. We in the pajama tops and American Apparel leggings salute you.

@Anonymous TeenVogue=/= Vogue.
@Anonymous who the fuck disliked this?
@sucks to be a lady So….did anyone else notice that none of the women featured in teen vogue (should college students be in teen vogue anyway?) are majoring in something soft (art history, history, english…) I think I saw a few doing econ, but seriously?
There are no women in hard sciences (comp-sci, math, physics). It’s 2012, that’s sort of embarrassing. Shouldn’t our education be more important than our style? And don’t tell me english or art history is hard. I take engineering courses and english courses. not comparable. How can women complain about inequalities in the world when they aren’t doing the work to be taken seriously?
@that comment was dumb
@Anonymous …we have a winner ladies and gentlemen, english and engineering.
@Anonymous Yeah, where were the men?
@CC '13 what was that thing they said about education and intelligence…?
@Is it just me or does the girl on the right remind anyone else of Luna Lovegood?
@Anonymous Huh, that girl from the Jeffers Win video is in there.
@Anonymous is this bwog or bwugusta dayton amirite
@SOMALA Yes! She is always so f*%#ing stylish!
@Anonymous i have a crush on somala
@newsflash all 3 are dressed the same.
@prezbu wuv you bu!
@Anonymous some kids in africa don’t have clothes. Bwog, check your privilege
@Anonymous Pictures like these only serve to perpetuate rape culture.
@anon We get it, you think rape culture is a joke. Can we move on?
@this one time someone stopped me to take a picture of my outfit and it really made my day/made my day again when it was posted to their website.
sure, we all have big aspirations but damn it getting street styled is embarrassingly high on the list.
BILL CUNNINGHAM COME FIND ME
@Hurray Yay for Clara! She has the absolute perfect style in my opinion. Also, is there some way we could get in touch so I can borrow my pens back that I leant you for the final?
@Hurray Hmm, apparently “leant” is not the right word for what I meant. Erm, loaned?
@SO YOU WANT TO BE NOTICED I generally find that wearing a red feather in my hair and carrying an ostrich helps, all while doing somersaults. Of course, the girls who go noticed probably employed, shall we say, “cruder” methods that involved simultaneously hopping about on one foot, keeping a finger to the nose, playing the harmonica, and making rude gestures with the remaining hand.
WTF did I just write. No sleep in last 36 hours.
@Anonymous Columbia is the fashion capital school of the country!
@SEAS'15 lol
@Anonymous No, 90% of people here wear the same stuff people at colleges everywhere wear.
@TIL if you can afford name brands and take the time to look presentable and are also skinny/not too dark-skinned you can be in teen vogue
@jus' sayin' Hun, jealousy is not an attractive quality.
@umm jealousy because i’m pointing out that a) these are not high fashion looks, they’re NY casual, which is what they’re supposed to be but not what i read vogue for and b) that vogue decided to only use skinny, mostly white females? would’ve loved to see different looking people. it’s NEW YORK. we’re diverse. come on.
@okay but like do you expect them to be strutting around in fucking dior? and there is diversity among the subjects. I just feel like you’re trying to take something nice and simple and turn it into this symbol of something evil. let’s just relaxxxxxx
@pleaseeee point out the diversity for me. please. hint: anything you say won’t be enough to stifle my discontent. I’m not willing to accept “diversity” because some girls have different hair colors and they threw in a couple of “dark”-skinned/asian girls. show me the black, the “plus,” the male, and I will be appeased. until then i will continue to be dissatisfied by the status quo.
@Anonymous It’s a fashion magazine…why would they photograph fat people wearing pajamas
@Anonymous I’d tap.
@14 I saw the photographer taking pictures and kept walking past to try to get his attention. Guess I didn’t make the cut…
@BioChem Major Ain’t nobody got time for that!
also, plz discuss: no SEAS students, only one neurosci? what up with dat?
@Neuro Major Who Wears Heels in Butler Science students don’t have time to stop and get photographed by magazines for teenagers. They’re busy doing things like researching cures for cancer or building bionic shit for people who could benefit from something bionic. 2 AWESOME 4 U, TVOGUE.
@Fellow BioChem major I too noticed that they were mostly English/PoliSci/something studies majors; I just didn’t know how to bring it up without sounding like a dick
@Anon Congrats – you all sound like arrogant dicks.
@anon As a former premed, I can attest that I have way more time to think about the clothes I’m wearing now I’m a humanities major.
@Anonymous So let me get this straight: you don’t have time to dress well because your major is hard? Yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and call bullshit…
@Sarah Ryder she’s so pretty!
