6 Iconic Looks From The 2016 CFDA Fashion Awards

Celebrities strutted the red carpet on Monday June 6 for the Counsel Of Fashion Designers of America Awards. Many of you may be familiar with Rihanna's 2014 CFDA Award look, which was a see through Swarovski halter top dress. The CFDA Awards took place at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.

Beyonce took the Fashion Icon Award, which is no surprise, as she is always wearing unique pieces. Here are some of the best looks from the CFDA Awards.

1. Jourdan Dunn.

Dunn is wearing Jonathan Simkhai Pre-Spring 2017. Her sheer beaded gown that sure turned heads. The top of the dress incorporates the choker trend, which has been a very popular dress style this year. The dress has fringe detailing, and appears to be woven in a spider web-like pattern; the small details of this dress are very beautiful. She wore nude bottoms that matched the dress since the bottom half is see through. I liked Dunn's choice of doing a smokey eye look to add a pop of color since the dress is nude.

2. Jessica Hart.

Hart is rocking some velvet bow tied Alexandre Birman heels. The rest of the look is a nude silk set. The top is a bralette, the bottom appears to be pleated trousers, and she finished off the look with a silk top. The shoes and the bralette are definitely the statement pieces in this look that draw the most attention. I like that Hart mixed textures (silk and velvet) in her look.

3. Lauren Conrad.

Conrad's look is very simple she is wearing her own, Fall 2016 Lauren Conrad Runway Collection for Kohls. She is sporting a nude, maxi slip dress and a long black blazer. Although the look is simple, I love Conrad's bold vampy lip and sleeked back hairdo.

4. Jasmine Tookes.

Tookes is wearing a sleeveless black dress, which if you look closely has sequin and beaded detailing. She is sporting pointed black metallic heels that match the sequins on her dress. I love the two different tones of her dress, and the fact that
she matches her entire look, including the makeup.

5. Beyonce.

Everything about this look is perfect from the stacked chokers, to the pin striped blazer and pants, to the wide rimmed hat. It is no surprise that Bey won the Fashion Icon Award!

6. Hilary Rhoda.

Rhoda looks like a Greek goddess in her sheer gown. I love the gold detailing on her dress, and her fold ombre clutch. However my favorite part of the look, of course, is the gold wreath crown.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
