Rent the Runway

Whether it's Notre Dame's Prom on the Lawn or just a glamorous night on the town, girls are always on the hunt for that perfect outfit. Normally, the only thing that stands between you and that stunning dress is the stunning price. For college students this can be a deal breaker, but for others who are smart enough to look elsewhere, Rent the Runway is the place to look.

Things to do in South Bend

Walk around Notre Dame's campus on any given day and you will often hear cries of, "South Bend is so boring," or "There is nothing to do here!" But despair no more, fellow Domers. There actually are things to do in South Bend beyond going to Five Guys and O'Rourke's. If you're willing to be a little adventurous and try something new, South Bend is waiting to entertain you.

Weekends are like foam on a latte, chocolate in a brioche or bubbles in champagne. They are simultaneously a part of our accomplishment-driven week and its most defining and anticipated element. Oh, the fun of dancing, primping and general relaxation. There is nothing like dedicating yourself to you and you alone as books rest comfortably on your shelf and Monday's cares seem miles away. I thought I knew how to properly ring in the weekend before I came to Notre Dame's hallowed halls. I foolishly thought hors d'oeuvres in Paris by the Eiffel Tower, a few evenings at Maxim's, aperitivi by Florence's Ponte Vecchio and a Eurostar trip to London could have prepared me for football weekends. Darlings, I freely admit ⎯ I had no idea.

Fluffy' Comes to ND

If you're looking to add a little "fluff" to your weekend, you're in luck.  The hilarious Gabriel Iglesias, or as he likes to call himself, "Fluffy," will be on campus this Friday to entertain us with his nationally famous stand-up routine. 

Best of '90s Nicktoons

‘90s kids rejoice! In case you haven't heard (or seen), Nickelodeon, the home of green slime that you once turned to for all of your entertainment needs, is bringing back its classic shows from its '90s heyday. Yes, coming back to your television screens are favorites of another era, including "All That," "Kenan & Kel," "Doug" and oh, so many more.

Turn on your tube from midnight to 2 a.m. Monday through Thursday nights to relive your childhood and get prepared to ace the "Children's TV shows" Sporcle quizzes.

I have always been inspired by the statue of Our Lady which sits proudly on the Golden Dome.  While visitors see her as an example of the aesthetic beauty inherent in Notre Dame's campus, young student tour guides refer to her place in the "Jump, mama!" folklore and alumni photograph her on the Dome as part of the visual embodiment of the phrase "God, Country, Notre Dame", I like to think I share a more personal bond with her than any other fan. High up in the sky, as she looks down upon our activities and preoccupations, she may be getting on in years, have her hands forever stretched out and battle birds and other weather elements without any protection, but she always presents a fashionable figure in her golden sheath.  Let's face it, Mary knows how to grab her viewer's attention, and it's not by wearing black, gray or any other monotone color.

Girl Talk goes with the flow and throws the (Block) party of the year at B1

Pittsburgh mash-up artist Girl Talk (Gregg Gillis) seemed a logical selection to headline an event marketed as the "Biggest Party of the Year." Walk into any Notre Dame dorm room party, and within thirty minutes it's almost guaranteed that you will hear some sort of mash-up. Last school year, Legends brought two different mash-up artists to campus — Super Mash Bros. and The White Panda. We just love to hear the latest Top 40 hook remixed over a classic rock anthem, for one reason or another.

Girl Talk comes to the B1 Block Party

When one hears the name Girl Talk, the first image that comes to mind is probably not a male DJ from Pittsburgh spinning complex mashups from a laptop, using digital sampling and combining unlikely songs together.
