“The Ataris were just here last semester, right?” was all one could hear when waiting outside of Sozo yesterday as a rush of people flooded in to see the pop punk quartet before they left for the semester. Everyone wondered what they’d be playing tonight. New songs? Old songs? It left a crowd full of [...]

Mike.  Photographed in Atherton Hall. It’s hot outside – something foreign after surviving this semester.  There’s no reason to abandon fashion in favor of that “tan” you’ve been working on all weekend though.  Mike exhibits the beauty of simplicity perfectly on this gorgeous day.  A blue oxford and a dark colored pair of chinos (they’re [...]

Garrett Bogden – the student behind Nittany Booking – is nothing short of amazing when it comes to providing State with live music. He’s booked one last show before he moves on to the post-graduation world many of us dread.  With only a few weeks until showtime, he wanted word spread fast.  OS has the [...]

That’s right!  Nittany Booking’s swan song event has just been announced.  The booking company has brought us some truly memorable shows this year and this one promises to be just as exciting.  Here’s the details: Nittany Booking’s Pre-Finals Bash Friday, May 1st at Sozo Featuring: Punchline Gene the Werewolf An All Ages Event Doors Open [...]

Mark.  Photographed on Pollock Road. I feel like the readers should be able to figure out why I chose this one.  Retro-styled cardigan, vintage-esque headphones, those 80′s dayglo sunglasses – they all make for a highly unique image.  It may be a bit too rough around the edges for my taste, but there’s a definite [...]

Ramon.  Photographed Outside the McAllister Building. I tip my hat to Ramon.  This is fly.  Period.  First look at the details: the graphics on the belt, his watch, the use of a “shine-based” motif – all of these are brilliant.  Then check how Ramon integrates them.  A white tee and black denim to me are [...]

With Greek Week in full force this week, OS decided to get to the heart of the matter and interview Interfraternity Council (IFC) President Luke Pierce.  I had the chance to sit down with Luke and learn about his beliefs both Greek related and not.  His responses were at times surprising, yet he shows great [...]

“There’s No Place Like Home.”  Photographed in the HUB. The shoes say it all.  A nice peacoat does wonders for this look, too.  Black with gold jewelery adds for extra class.  A grandslam if I ever saw one.

As you know, The Natty Nittany has been devoted to covering the best in Penn State fashion this past year.  Everyone’s favorite newspaper – The Daily Collegian – has also taken their eyes to the street on a similar mission the past five years with a section they title “Take Five“ I am Fashion.  I [...]

Freshman Style.  Photographed on College Ave. Something you don’t see everyday on campus.  This is a good look.  There’s a lot to be taken from this outfit.  See what you can find.  Have a nice weekend and stay well dressed at those parties, Penn State!

Elisa.  Photographed on College Ave. Sunny days always yield great fashion in University Park.  Here we have a wonderful use of basics.  Nothing in particular screams for attention, but as a whole this look commands it. Tights with leg warmers – while many may consider something that should have been left in the 80s – [...]

Chris.  Photographed on College Ave. Not only is he incredibly gracious, Chris is also incredibly well dressed.  This post is a pop quiz for all the readers.  Comment and we’ll see why you think Chris is potentially the “Nattiest” Nittany yet.  Think details!

Matt.  Photographed on Pollock Road. To my beloved readers – He’s NOT wearing skinny jeans.  Can we call a truce?  If this were a section to be artsy and creative, the title of this photo would be “Shades of Gray“.  Matt does a great job executing a combination of neutral tones in this outfit without [...]

Our friends at Nittany Booking are doing their best to go out with a bang this semester.  Almost in rapid-fire succession, they’ve managed to bring us an April full of exciting bands to see.  Today OS was released word of one more – possibly the final concert of the spring semester. THE ATARIS Featuring: PULL [...]

Dr. David and Nina Kraft.  Photographed on College Avenue. Returning for the 50th Anniversary of his Ph.D. in Physics, Dr. Kraft is nothing short of incredible.  With his wife Nina, they make potentially the most adorable couple State College has ever had the pleasure of hosting.  The colors of her twed blazer match perfectly with [...]
