District Magazine February 2015 | Page 4

Editor’s Letter February is one of my favorite months. Yes, my birthday is in the month {February 13th holla}, but it is not just that. There is something about it being so short that makes people act a little differently. This month instead of taking on the typical in-love couple and how to make Valentine’s Day perfect for your significant other we decided to make this the “Best Friends” issue. We have stories about best friends, a guide to throwing the perfect “Galentine’s Party” {thanks Parks & Rec}, how to date your best friend, and so much more. But it is not just best friends, it is the Oscars. One of our favorite times of the year is award season and we chose some of our favorite dresses that we hope to see on some of our favorite people. We also chose our picks for the Academy Awards and we are looking forward to see who was right. Lastly, our cover girl is a friend of mine who recently started righting for College Fashionista. She shares her experiences and her fashion guru advice on pages 18 through 29. My Oscar picks: Best Picture: The Theory of Everything // Lead Actor: Michael Keaton // Lead Actress: Julianne Moore // Supporting Actor: J.K. Simmons // Supporting Actress: Patricia Arquette As always, remember to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and that District is “your right to a beautiful life.” Keep It Beautiful, Hayden Pigott Editor-In-Chief 4 Insta: @hayden213 Tweet Me! @haydenpigott
