Xiyin, 23
By Jeff PetrielloApr 22nd, 2010 · 5:00 pmComments (16)What do you do?
I'm a first year law student at Yale.
If a guy wanted to pick you up, what would be a good way to go about it?
Not being a law student helps. I think my boyfriend had me at "I'm in the architecture school."
What's the difference between New York style and New Haven style?
New York style is cool, edgy, mostly black, sometimes I-rolled-out-of-the-dumpster dirty but always fun and quirky, while Yale kids do this whole I'm-going-boating-out-in-Nantucket-later thing (see: Vampire Weekend) with lots of pastels, madras, and patent Tory Burch for the ladies. It's all a little rote and boring, honestly.
What makes you feel sexy?
Having the right walk and the right stance seriously makes or breaks a girl's sexiness. I have this hip-strut-saunter thing.
What's one pickup line you'd instantly fall for?
"I DJ sometimes..."
What's your least favorite trend right now?
The athletic look that Alex Wang helped bring to the forefront. I didn't own a pair of sweats in high school, and I'm not about to buy one now.
Describe your perfect summer seduction outfit
Sheer tops and dresses with lingerie underneath was big on the runways, but it will be even bigger considering how hot it'll be. As for me, I'll be hanging out in Tompkins Square park with my oversized Rodarte tee, slouchy denim shorts, and Cynthia Rowley cat-eye sunglasses. I think the most subtle things (a little slouch, super-soft cotton) are the sexiest to me now.

What do you think?
But really, the cigarette is the coolest thing in that pic, amirite?
this chick was also in sex advice from law students
Cat eye sunglasses? What a pretentious whore. Yale. It is to laugh.
i'm really glad i only know a few lawyers from yale.
If I saw her slimmed up against the side of a radiator like that at a party I would be very drawn to her. Nice.
nice!
this chick has clearly never been east of avenue A. embarrassing.
yawn . . .she said " It's all a little rote and boring, honestly." . . .little did she know she was describing herself.
so she's a yale law student and is already disenchanted . . .. she will go into corporate law, marry some poor schmuck and complain all the time . . . and not to do one damned interesting thing in her lifetime.
and when said husband cheats on her, she will turn her children against him . . .
it is all in the cards and so obvious to see. the smoking won't look so cool when she's puffy and bitter in middle age.
Oh, 23 year olds. No one knows less about life, love and relationships, yet no one talks more about them. (Usually while smoking with people who DJ sometimes.)
Y'all just pissed u cant get into Yale. Kudos to her for being down with it while studying some superdifficult shit.
hipsters suck, especially Asian hipsters
@johnny...those are words of wisdom. I'll remember that when I turn 23 ;)
cc, you're an idiot. This girl is adorable and i agree with her view on sweats. Disgusting trend for lazy people hiding fat legs.
:)?REALLY?:)
Jale.
