Non-prescription clear (read: fake) glasses These preferably oversized glasses will instantaneously provide street-cred and up your “cool” factor even if you have 20/20 vision. 4. Shoulder strap bag On a college campus you will be judged by the means with which you lug your books from class to class. Totes are for preps and backpacks are for conformists; go with the sidestrap. Bonus points if you attach a pin that says “The sky is falling...

His tough-love...
...pillowy bulge lines the bottom of the mask, which feels so light and cushy on the sinuses and allows for hardcore REM action (and for women, protection from make-up smudge during a cat nap). The design blocks out every stray photon of light, and the silky head-strap won't give you any rude awakenings or crude indentations. If you want to spice things up, try the Dream Essence mask, which has a pocket that comes with a sachet filled with lavender and chamomile; it almost made me topple like Dorothy in a field of poppies.
