Whether we like it or not we are all approaching a time in our life that is scary. That big scary thing called “the real world” is approaching, and fast. Unfortunately for us, to get into that new world of “real people,” we must be wearing business professional clothes. Unless you are the "Baby Boss," I doubt you have an evolved closet of business attire.

Between internship interview season and group projects, everyone could use the top five places in Tuscaloosa to find business casual clothes.

1. Belk

For those of you used to Macy's or Sak's, this is your closest thing to it in town. Fully equipt with all types of blazers and dresses.

2. JCPenney


Take a quick five-minute drive over to the mall to pick out a new pair of khakis or spend the money you don't have at Sephora.

3. Men's Wearhouse


For all you guys out there looking for the suite that seals the deal, here you have it.

4. Target

I'm sure Target is not the first place that comes to mind when thinking of professional clothing. However, with a large shoe section, dress shirts and dresses it's easy to piece together an outfit.

5. Boutiques of Midtown Village


Visit boutiques like Soca, Lavish and Franchescas to find the perfect dress or even some subtle accessories to add some personality.

Look good, feel good, and play well. Looking your best not only helps with your overall appearance but helps to keep you confident and on your toes. With the perfect resume and a killer outfit, you might be able to convince someone to hire you.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
