Boys fashion in Ames High is a joke. Majority of the female students of Ames High will most likely to agree with the previous statement. Sam Egberth, a junior and one of the best dresser of Ames High, describes how people are like in PE clothes all day long. It is almost as if they don’t care about...
It’s time for tassels
March 31, 2015
Listen up Ames High, spring is barreling in faster than snow is piling up on the East Coast and it has new trends in tow. Particularly one little trend, and no, I’m not talking about florals, has made its way into the spring charts. All my Devil Wears Prada fans would understand. This spring is all...

For most, this takes four years. However, you can still emulate the favorite class of Ames High in...

Get ready to get wild this October, because leopard print is in for autumn. I used to think leopard print could look gaudy and cheap, but that depends on how you choose to wear it. Por ejemplo, wearing bold leopard print jeggings is going way too far with this trend. Just don’t do it. Trust me, you...

The AHS baseball team was ahead of the trend when they donned their Camo is Committed shirts this past spring. This fall, camouflage print is all the rage. I’m not talking leaves and sticks hunting camo, I’m talking hardcore army print. A trendy camo print can be displayed with a pair of jeans, a cute m...
