The scorching temperatures can oddly become a motivator for getting in a workout: if you’re already sweaty, why not sweat some more?

The cliché urge to clean out the old and unnecessary to make room for the new and essential has arrived along with this year’s spring season just like clockwork. You can count on spring to bring unpredictable weather, making this season the perfect time to prepare your home for the abundance of sunny days ahead.

The second print edition is hitting the presses as we speak. After months of tedious work and adding final touches, we are so happy that everything is finally coming together. 

The Ole Miss baseball season is back in action this spring and with it the age-old question of what to wear to games. Finding an outfit that is equipped for a day out and has the ability to survive beer showers is key to a successful season at Swayze Field. 

Returning from spring break marks the middle of the spring semester, so there is no better time to think about self-care and how to take care of your mental health during the school year. Summer is looming and it can be difficult to stay on track and stress-free as finals approach, but there are plenty of ways to unwind without taking too much time out of your busy schedule. 

The 1990s were arguably one of the most defining decades in the history of the public’s obsession with culture and lifestyle. Typically referred to as the “grunge era,” the 90s were more than just a blur of Nirvana groupies and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy wannabes. Mauve lip liner, spin classes, heroin chic, the birth of email, and Walkmans created the blueprint for daily life at the end of the millennium. Since Gen Z will never know the full power of this historic decade, living vicariously through old red carpet shots and revitalized trends of minimalism will just have to suffice. 

This month, we’ve had the joy of highlighting local musician and Ole Miss senior, Andrew Gardner a.k.a. Mr. Neptoon, dissected the allure of everything Rezek Studio has to offer, and recapped the drama-packed second season of cult-favorite Euphoria through our favorite fashion moments. If you haven’t already, check out this month’s lookbook and scroll through our Instagram to see what our social team has been up to.

Andrew Gardner is a native of Oxford, Mississippi who possesses an immense amount of gratitude for his family and the musical endeavors he has been a part of. While Mr. Neptoon is making music for the universe, Gardner appears extremely grounded.

Across all time periods and genres, beauty standards and the outward appearance are large themes found in literature. Everyone’s idea of beauty is shaped by what one perceives in their environment; some of the biggest influences can come from unlikely stories on the shelves of the library. Novels that don’t directly have themes related to outward beauty can still influence the way individuals understand and create beauty in their own lives.
