Emmys 2016 Best Dressed

Some people love winter, others summer, but my favorite season is Awards Season -- specifically the fashion. The Emmys, which aired this past, Sunday was no exception. I would choose some of those jaw-dropping haute couture gown over changing leaves any day of the week. Every year, I tune into some of my favorite fashion television shows to see what my favorite fashionistas also thought of that year's looks. Now I have the opportunity to share my own personal favorites. After scrolling through pages upon pages of fashion-forward starlets, I was able to narrow down the looks to my preferred elite. In no particular order, here's my list of the 2016 Emmy Award's best dressed.

1. Maisie Williams

Maisie Williams always knocks it out of the park with her style, and the Emmy's were no exception. Her tea-length Markus Lupfer dress and funky up-do only further prove how cool she is. She'll always be on my best-dressed rankings!

2. Sophie Turner

The Game of Thrones stars were on a roll Sunday night. Turner looked chic in this romantic Valentino gown and rocked newly blonde locks. Her look makes a statement with its simplicity.

3. Yara Shahidi

The Black-ish star sported a youthful and self-expressed "whimsical" gown by Clara Rotescu. The clutch, bracelets, and dazzling earrings tie the outfit together with an age-appropriate edge. This look will keep Shahidi on numerous red carpet radars, including mine.

4. Padma Lakshmi

Lakshmi's metallic Naeem Khan ensemble could have easily gone overboard if not styled correctly. Luckily, she made the look modern and perfectly balanced with lipstick for a pop of color and a minuscule amount of jewelry. She looks nothing less than gorgeous.

5. Kristen Bell

I'm usually extremely picky when it comes to patterns, but the subtleness of this gown, not to mention the flattering shape, incorporate the pattern perfectly. I do wish Bell would have worn some more dramatic earrings, but her stylish tousled 'do makes up for it. Overall, it was a fun and fresh look.

6. Priyanka Chopra

Last, but certainly not least, is Priyanka Chopra in a stunning Jason Wu number. I usually get annoyed when stars twirl around and play with their dresses too much on the red carpet, as I believe a gown should speak for itself, but I wouldn't mind a thousand more of Chopra's twirls! This look is timeless, and everything from her hair to her decadent red hem is on point.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
