...really ask from a pair of pants. Now, let me clarify that these aren’t the days of JNCOs—days when we pre-teen girls would do anything to have a drop of Backstreet Boy sweat fall on us at a concert, when we wore baggy jeans, belly-baring t-shirts, and had Tamogatchis hanging from our pockets. Wide-leg trousers have been walking down runways for years, but only recently have a sizeable number of ready-wear models been showing up in stores. When worn with a pair of heels, these pants offer an exaggerated...
Yardfest Despite being one of the most bitched about events every year, Yardfest does well.

...gowns mingled with their tuxedoed dates in the lobby as displays of potatoes flanked rows of shot glasses filled with a Russian vegetable-based concoction at the cocktail reception. The recently restored clerestory windows let in natural light for the first time in 65 years, but, most importantly, the concert program featured the works of three great Russian composers. When the last round of applause on Wednesday night faded into indistinguishable chatter, the concertgoers left the hall assured that American-born conductor James Levine was back and had sent the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s 128th season...
