Ashley Granata, F I T grad and textile designer, recently inherited her grandmothers scarf collection, and has done something amazing with it. After her grandmother passed away, Ashley learned that she had been a cancer survivor. Then, she got the idea to give cancer patients going through chemotherapy a little something to get through it. For every $50 raised by her Ashley Jeanne project, she gives a scarf to a patient at Brooklyn Hospital. That way some of these patients who are not only going through this, but are also losing their apperance, can control something in their life, how they look. Boys Fashion Some guys are always wondering, How can I dress to impress? What gets a girl’s attention? Well You don’t have to wear leather pants or dress like your from the 80’s. All you have to do is dress nicely and if you can’t do that on your own, get a girl’s advice. Your tip for this episode is ditch the jeans. No not permanently, just every once in a while. In my opinion, guys who wear more than just one pair of jeans all the time have some style. I mean, don’t get me wrong, some of you do look good in your old faded blue jeans, but whats wrong with khakis or something else,
