Geek is chic.
If my obsessions with Gossip Girl and The Hills have taught me anything it's that teen girls love shiny, fancy gadgets. I don't blame them. Gossip Girl's hot cameras and Verizon phones and Lauren Conrad's obsession with her BlackBerry are all lust worthy, but what does the average teen girl want this holiday season? I suspect the iPhone, $399, iPod nano, $150, and less expensive items like the Read more

Every week, we bring you the best parenting and lifestyle stories from the experts at BabyCenter, including this post from Joyce Slaton about girls' clothes.

This week is the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC, and while there are plenty of indie rom-coms to catch our eye, it's the documentaries we're really dying to see. One film contrasts the women of the Miss India beauty pageant with the girls of a fundamentalist Hindu camp, another looks at our culture's obsession with beauty, and there's even one on the manscaping trend (with Jason Bateman and Will Read more
I recently attended a Pixar event at the animation film company's HQ for its upcoming Summer flick Brave. I was able to watch the first 30 minutes of the film, interview the director Mark Andrews and producer Katherine Sarafian, learn all about Scottish traditions, and even channel my inner Merida with archery lessons. Not only am I hooked on archery (pretty proud of my bull's-eye), I'm also Read more

Ozy Frantz explains the difference between fear and hatred of women, and the more common fear and hatred of anything feminine. When I was a freshman in high school, I and my friends were Cool Chicks.

As one of our favorite '90s starlets, Claire's portrayal of Angela gave us someone we could relate to growing up. She went through the same friend dramas, family Read more
Glee is back after its break and the cliff-hanger of Quinn's accident, and we see what happens with her and whether Rachel and Finn went through with their wedding. We also get to meet Blaine's impossibly good-looking brother Cooper (guest star Matt Bomer), and though everyone else seems to be entranced with him, his visit makes Blaine confront their relationship issues. We've been waiting a Read more
