  • Go back in time with 'The Croods'

    “The Croods,” DreamWorks, newest film directed by Kirk DeMicco and Chris Sanders, is a computer-generated family film loaded with action and adventure, with a little humor on the side.
    Set in prehistoric times, “The Croods” are the last Neanderthal family to survive the constant threats from wild beasts and the elements.
    The family, consisting of father Grug (the voice of Nicolas Cage), wife Ugga (voiced by Catherine Keener), teenage daughter Eep (Emma Stone), son Thunk (Clark Duke),  Gran (Cloris Leachman) and baby Sandy (Randy Thom) live in a deep, dark cave almost all of the time.  
    Grug will only allow the family to venture out of the cave when they need food. This is hard for teenager, Eep, who is curious and wants to explore the world beyond the cave.
    Sneaking out one night to find out what a strange light is, Eep meets another teen named Guy, (Ryan Reynolds) who introduces her to fire.  
    Guy is the only survivor of his family but he has a companion, a sloth named Belt (Chris Sanders).
    Guy explains to Eep that this part of the world is about to be destroyed and that he is on his way to find a new place to live. He invites Eep to go with him, but she refuses and Guy leaves.

  • Fashion Maven: Just because it’s comfy, doesn’t mean it should be rumpy

     I find that sweatpants, baggy sweatshirts and pajama pants worn in public are fashion faux pas. What fascinates me is that the simple phrase “it’s comfortable” is used to justify this sloppy choice of attire.
    I understand the wonderful feeling of wearing cozy pajama pants or a warm hoodie when it’s cold.
    Yet, with the exception of the elementary school pajama days of my past, I never wear sleepwear in public. And unless you’re on your way to a workout, sweatpants and sportswear should be on the no-no list, too.
    Additionally, being comfortable does not imply dressing frumpily. You can feel just as cozy in your jammies as you can in a fashionable outfit that is quick and easy to put together.
    I’ve got a few key pieces that can be combined into a variety of cozy and fashionable ensembles.
    Leggings are always essential. They come in many different fabrics and colors and are easy to slip on under a comfy sweater dress or skirt. On a chilly day, pull on some thicker leggings to keep you warm.
    Jeggings are a cross between jeans and leggings. This pant is just as comfortable as leggings, but often has pockets or denim-looking fabric. Jeggings work well with a cotton top and blazer, but they can also be worn under a dress or skirt, just like leggings.
