...design for the thin. The skinny pants, low-cut jeans, micro-minis and bubble skirts that are coming our way this fall all look fabulous if you're built like a darning needle, but they're just not going to work on us pincushions. Is there really no middle ground between micro-shorts and muumuus? We can build a camera that makes you look slimmer in photographs, but we can't design a flattering outfit for a 145-lb. woman...

...first day of the tournament with a 13-stroke deficit to overcome, but the gap only widened during the event’s second day. With every Princeton round during the second day of competition falling in the 70’s, Harvard stood little chance of standing its ground, let alone erasing the Tiger lead. The Crimson will face another Ivy rival on the road next weekend, traveling to New Haven to participate in the Yale Invitational...
