Editor’s NotE

Little secret:

CLOCKWISE FROM LEFT: Street style the Italian way; a French mix of masculine and feminine; Russian fashion writer Miroslava Duma.

I’ve never liked the word network. That is, until I found out what it really means—going out and meeting people, and then later taking them out to cofee or lunch. I love lunch. And I’m also crazy about meeting new people and asking them about what they do. Enlarging your circle out of genuine curiosity can only be a good thing. For “Marie Claire’s New Guard” (p. 134), we’ve assembled a list of 50 women who have built phenomenal careers by doing just that. Every season, what comes down the runways captures our imagination, and so does the spectacle outside on the street. We’ve decoded the behavioral patterns and habits of the exotic creatures who are photographed outside the shows—those fearless fashionistas from around the world—in “Curb Appeal” (p. 112). Tweet us your own favorite looks @marieclaire using #curbappeal. On a serious note, did you know that 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted on their college campus, compared with 1 in 6 in the U.S. population? And that repeat rapists account for 9 out of 10 rapes on college campuses, or that less than 25 percent of perpetrators are expelled? Shocked by these statistics, MC Senior Editor Kayla Webley spoke to women across the country who reported their sexual assaults to school administrators and found little to no recourse in their campus disciplinary systems. Frustrated by the responses, these women ﬁled lawsuits, created social-media sites and nonproﬁt groups, and joined forces to get the protection and support they are guaranteed by law. Turn to p. 252 to read “Big Shame on Campus,” then log on to marieclaire.com/campusrape to help make university campuses safe for women.

Love the animal prints.

She’s Got Game It’s about time that a women’s magazine acknowledged female football fans instead of making outdated, snarky comments about how to survive your man watching the sport. I’ve been following the game forever, and I still learned something from “The Savvy Girl’s Guide to Football.” —Michele Hogsett, Millsboro, DE There was not one mention of women’s semipro tackle football in “The Savvy Girl’s Guide to Football.” There are women who live and breathe this sport, both on the field for their own teams and off the field through the NFL’s stage. No homage was paid to them at all. —Jordyn White, Washington, D.C.

ON FACEBOOK Anna Dore: “Rocking Her World,” about the Chime for Change initiative, really shows how Frida Giannini ensures there’s empowerment behind her products while imprinting her feminine style as creative director of Gucci. She’s making a substantial impact for “every woman, every girl, everywhere.” Amber Stredwick: “How I Fled a Life of Polygamy” is a powerful story! We all have to take ownership of our lives, and it’s inspiring to read about a woman who had to overcome incredible odds to do so.

While shooting “Jean Streets” (p. 244) on the basketball courts at the Marcy Houses in Brooklyn, New York, the Spanish photographer scored with the neighborhood crowd. “At first kids played ball around us without noticing us much,” he says, “but toward the end, they definitely found the shoot quite amusing.” Favorite art piece: René Magritte’s The Treachery of Images.

New York–based Anderson is on a timely mission: to get women to wear watches. “The kind you wear tells a lot about who you are and who you want to be,” he says. His favorite page to edit is “Jewelry News” (p. 88), which this month spotlights Ralph Lauren’s Stirrup Collection timepieces. Best part of the job: Seeing new, beautiful things every minute of the day. Worst part: Jet lag.

To create the makeup looks for actresses Bella Heathcote and Hailee Steinfeld in “Karl’s Angels” (p. 236), lifelong Californian Yoshimoto Bua subscribed to the notion that less is more with sun-kissed cheeks and just a touch of smoky eyeliner. “Like Chanel’s fashions, the actresses are classically gorgeous,” she says. “My goal was to bring out their natural beauty.” Listening to: Sigur Rós. Favorite snack: Immortal Machine Superfood Drink Mix.

Parisian via Russia Volkova set out to bring readers a “taste of Bella and Hailee’s world” with the Chanel cruise looks in “Karl’s Angels.” “We wanted it to be all about their style and energy,” she says, which she captured in whimsical pieces like white lace blouses and shorts.

fresh priNts

behind the cover: beauty

haute moment

Photographer Seydou Keïta’s portraits with patterned backdrops inspired the shoot.

The modern way to wear couture is with a laid-back look. Here’s how Natalie Portman’s glamour team did it

“The tousled texture created an updated juxtaposition to the couture fashion,” says hairstylist Danilo. He used a large-barrel curling iron to construct the contemporary style.

The Face

“When I saw the clothes, I decided to give Natalie’s lips a soft pop of color to balance the bold hues in the fabrics,” says makeup artist Pati Dubroff, who used a sheer wash of pink lipstick and volumizing black mascara to pull together an easily wearable palette. “The makeup is approachable yet polished.”

Au NAturel

Barely-there polish kept Portman’s hands looking clean and fresh.

The nails

Manicurist Christina Aviles designed what she calls “mannequin hands” by ﬁling Portman’s nails into an elongated curve shape and painting them with a semi-opaque nude-pink polish. “There were a lot of vibrant colors in the clothes, so the manicure needed to complement the wide variety.” 48 m A r ie c l Air e .c om November 2013

EffEct

NiNa’s Notes: Change is inevitable, especially in fashion. After 20 years in the industry, I still get excited about the collection that sparks a reversal in the previous season’s trends. Fall had us pining for punk, grunge, and masculine attire, but resort has revived the desire for feminine florals, delicate white lace, and top-handle bags. Fleeting as they may be, ladylike looks are having a moment. Show me how you go girly @NinaGarcia. November 2013 mArieclAire.co m 73

CROP

If ever there was an

American fashion designer associated with equestrian heritage, it’s Ralph Lauren. “When I named my company Polo in 1967,” he explains, “I wanted to celebrate the grace and beauty of horse riding.” The theme is still evident today in ready-to-wear and accessories, including the iconic Stirrup watch that debuted in 2009. The timepiece has been updated with 10 vibrantly hued straps inspired by jockey silks worn on the racetrack and at polo tournaments. Is this another winner? Bet on it. —Jessica Minkoff

PRINTED MATTERS

Q

I really loved seeing all the mixed prints on the runways, but I’m not sure how to make them work. Any suggestions? I have become a huge fan of pattern mixing. I write “have become” because I used to avoid it altogether. Rita Ryack, the costume designer on The Smurfs movies, taught me that there are two key factors to mixing patterns harmoniously: color story and scale. You want the colors to be similar, and there should be cohesion among the textiles. When it comes to scale (the size of the pattern or print), it must be different. Play with it and have fun! The possibilities are endless.

A

HIPS DON’T LIE

Q

Do you have any advice on how to dress if you’re bottomheavy and want to wear white jeans? Rules are meant to be broken, provided we’re thoughtful about how we break them. I believe that white jeans should be in every woman’s wardrobe, and a good fit is always essential. Choose a lowrise style because it will fit you correctly in the hips. Also, choose a pair that falls straight down— no flare and no taper. On top, I suggest a print that has a semblance, not dominance, of white in it. A draped style will be most flattering.

ONE-PIECE WONDER

Q

I have a navy blue and white-polka-dot jumpsuit that I love but don’t know how to wear without people asking me why I’m wearing pajamas. What can I do to make it look more stylish? Let me begin by saying that I admire your courage. Not many women have the self-confidence or even desire to pull off this look, so let’s make it work. It’s important to style the jumpsuit in a way that gives it an anti-pajama vibe: Dress it up, not down. Open the placket to show some cleavage or add a strappy metallic stiletto and a chain belt. These will give the look a little sex appeal. The belt will also add proportion and give shape. Finally, consider a fitted leather jacket or blazer to cut through the potential sweetness of this outfit and give it some edge. Best wishes!

BURCH

The New York–based designer on her ﬁrst scent and what’s yet to come

Tory BUrch has a lot to celebrate. The 47-year-old just launched her first fragrance, Tory Burch—a mix of vetiver (the scent her father used to wear), peony, mandarin, and sweet alyssum. This month will see the opening of a rodeo Drive flagship in los angeles and her first store in munich; come February, her company will hit the decade mark. ask the Philadelphia native, who began her career in Pr and marketing, if any of the above was part of her master plan, and she’ll insist otherwise: “everything has been trial and error,” she says. For resort, a trip to morocco spurred Burch to add a feminine edge to her sporty tomboy aesthetic—a product of being surrounded by boys all her life. (She has three brothers and three sons.) “The architecture, the majorelle Garden . . . it was just inspiration after inspiration.” Up next: her first collection of Swiss-made watches with Fossil and a partnership between the Tory Burch Foundation, Google, and Politico that includes a four-day summit in Washington, D.c., on how women can effect change in business and politics. “i think that my not having any experience when i started encourages women to try new things,” she says. “i never imagined i could do it.” She’s made believers of us all. —Jessica Minkoff 104 m a rie c l air e .c om November 2013

Navy is everything this fall. Plus-size stylist Nicolette mason rounds up her best bets in blue rummage through the closet of any full-figured woman and you’re bound to find an endless array of black. After all, how many times have we been told of the color’s near-mythical slimming properties? The problem, of course, is that many women end up relying on black, resulting in a dreadfully monochromatic wardrobe. Fortunately, navy, this season’s couture color of choice, is the perfect antidote to ebony doldrums. Because navy is a neutral—just like black, it pairs with everything—it’s as versatile and chic (and, yes, even slenderizing) as the old standby. I especially love pairing it with my black basics. Très sophisticated! I’m sharing lots more fashion news and tips on Twitter, so be sure to follow me @nicolettemason. 118 m A r Ie c l A Ir e .c om November 2013

BUTTERFLY

EFFECT Project Runway designers spread their creative wings when challenged to create an avant-garde runway look inspired by New L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Butterﬂy Mascara.

After visiting a butterﬂy reserve for inspiration, designers got to work on creating an experimental, artistic, and daring look. Artistic eye effects made the high-fashion looks take ﬂight on the runway.

THE WINNING DESIGN Bradon McDonald’s challenge-winning look was inspired by a butterﬂy’s proboscis—a tubular appendage that enables a butterﬂy to drink juices and nectar.

Fans For all seasons Cult Project runway blog Tom+Lorenzo, the sometimes bitchy, always brilliant brainchild of Tom Fitzgerald and lorenzo Marquez, delivers hilarious commentary to millions of visitors each month.

TF: It was tacky as hell, but I was like, “Wow.” NG: You should’ve seen that up close. It looked like it had come out of a—I don’t know, factory . . . TF: A Russian sweatshop.

NEW GUARD MARIE CLAIRE’S

In an era when a million Twitter followers trumps a million-dollar paycheck, and viral videos capture more views than Hollywood blockbusters, all the old rules about power are dead. Today, networks are the new companies, and your contacts are currency. Knowing how to leverage them is real power. And nobody knows that better than the women spotlighted here, the most connected women in America Photographs by Meredith Jenks

Schumer, the patron saint of closing time, sees herself as having many missions, among them making people laugh, of course. But she’s also propagating a pro-sex, cocktail-in-hand message perfectly pitched to the new wave of women who’ve ditched the “settling down” part of conventional adulthood. her stand-up, she says, disguises

STORYTELLER

social commentary and helps women feel “less apologetic” about their lifestyles. Like the bit about a 20-something who tells Schumer she’s pregnant. “I don’t know whether to be like, ‘Congratulations!’ or ‘Do you need a ride?’” Schumer’s squirm-on-your-bar-stool shtick has clearly struck a nerve—and not just with women. When it premiered in April, Inside Amy Schumer raked in 3 million viewers, trouncing all of the network’s other new shows. (Another coup: Her recent Comedy Central stand-up special, Mostly Sex Stuff, was the network’s second-highest-rated stand-up special in five years.) “I knew I would make a show I was proud of and that I would think it was funny,” she says. “But I did not know if people would watch it. Or if it would last. Especially on that network.” Born in Manhattan and raised on Long Island, Schumer graduated from Towson University outside of Baltimore with a degree

in theater, and afterward dove into stand-up. Her big break came in 2007 when, at the age of 25, she made it onto the fifth season of Last Comic Standing—and finished fourth. But the exposure begot other higher-profile gigs, like Comedy Central’s roast of Charlie Sheen, where her blazing set catapulted her into the mainstream. From there, she landed a guest spot on Howard Stern’s radio show, which is where Girls mega-producer Judd Apatow discovered her. In August, Apatow optioned an as-yet-untitled screenplay Schumer wrote and will star in. “I was motivated, and I wasn’t afraid. I felt like I had something to say,” Schumer says of her path to success. “I had a lot of rejection and agents being like, ‘No, you’re kind of not special enough.’ But then no one can really tell you to stop stand-up, because it’s all about work ethic—you just have to be working on it all the time—and I never quit.” —Jada Yuan

DYLL AN MCGEE ExEcutivE producEr

Makers

ErE yOU TO UNDErTAkE the mammoth task of assembling all of America’s most powerful women in one room, you’d do well to place your first call to Dyllan McGee—she knows practically all of them. McGee is the visionary behind Makers, an epic PBS docu-series and online repository for the largest collection of interviews with female trailblazers ever assembled: Madeleine Albright on landing her first paying job at age 39; Judy Blume on fighting the campaign to ban her books; Hillary Clinton on facing the Capitol Hill firestorm that ensued when she took on health care during her husband’s presidency. Name a woman who has shattered a glass ceiling, and odds are good McGee, 43, has committed her story to film. But this isn’t at all what McGee set out to do back in 2005. She had wanted to make a documentary about Gloria Steinem. So there she was, sitting in the living room of Steinem’s Upper East Side townhouse, giving the feminist icon the hard sell. But Steinem wasn’t interested. Instead, she told McGee to broaden her scope to include the women’s rights movement as a whole. “I’m sure someone’s already done that,” a deflated McGee told Steinem. “I’m sure it’s been done 5 million times.” In fact, after a little digging, McGee learned that no such documentary had ever been

136 M A r IE C L AIr E .C OM November 2013

made. “It was crazy—and also a filmmaker’s dream moment,” she recalls. Soon, though, the reality of the vast project ahead of her set in— how do you distill 40 years of history into a few hours of television? That’s when McGee hatched a bold plan: “Usually a documentary airs and there’s a companion website. So I said, ‘Why don’t we start with the website? Let’s flip the documentary model and post individual stories online, then take the best material and create a documentary from the bottom up.” She dubbed her project Makers: Women Who Make America, and scored seed money from Jennifer Buffett, billionaire investor Warren Buffett’s daughter-in-law. Soon after, PBS signed on to broadcast it, and eventually AOL chief Tim Armstrong offered to be a digital partner. Today there are 200 Makers and counting, their interviews edited to digestible (and viralready) four-minute clips designed to elicit a conversation—and occasionally spark debate. Case in point: yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer kicked up dust with her Makers interview, in which she disses feminists as having a “militant drive” and a “chip on the shoulder”; Facebook’s Sheryl Sandberg (a key Makers benefactor) inspired a collective gasp among working women when she revealed that she left work every day at 5:30 p.m. to make it home in time for dinner with her family. “I remember laughing with Sheryl

after the fact that she had no clue when she sat down with me the impact that interview would have,” McGee recalls. Born and raised in New York City, McGee graduated from Trinity College in Connecticut with a degree in theater and hopes of becoming the next Katie Couric. The comparison is apt: McGee, prone to fizzy excitement about even mundane details—“I asked Alicia Keys to sing in our interview!”—exudes a similarly sunny disposition. Though she was offered an internship at the Today show, a producer there suggested she’d get even more hands-on experience working at a smaller company. So she did just that, opting instead to work for a boutique outfit called Kunhardt Productions, where she stayed put for nearly two decades, ultimately becoming a partner. Makers occupies most of her time these days. Every other week, she hits the road to meet up with a subject for an on-location interview. The goal is to elicit some fresh kernel of truth, some never-before-told detail that helps illuminate how these exceptional women came to success. Viewers get not just history but also practical advice and the occasional motivational speech. (Interestingly, nearly half the site’s 1.5 million visitors a month are men, according to McGee.) Though the travel is relentless (McGee’s husband, who works for IBM, picks up the slack with their two boys), it has proven instrumental: Many of her subjects recommend other prospective Makers, with McGee at the nexus of this high-profile, powerful network. Today Makers is a burgeoning multimedia empire that includes the threehour documentary that aired on PBS last year, with another six one-hour specials set to air next year; the online database of interviews; and there’s even a Makers conference in the works for February in Southern California. And Gloria Steinem was so impressed with Makers that she finally relented to McGee’s request to produce a documentary about her life. Gloria: In Her Own Words aired on HBO in the summer of 2011 and earned McGee an Emmy nomination. “Maybe it’s just my own personal awakening, but there is something in the air these days—a new focus on women’s issues,” she explains. “There seems to be a movement brewing, and I hope Makers plays an important role in it.” —Yael Kohen

Independent Filmmaker Project and Made in NY Media Center

I

n the schmoozy, swaggering world of show business, producer Joana Vicente enjoys a decidedly low profile. her oeuvre of 40-plus films— including Welcome to the Dollhouse and Coffee and Cigarettes—has been primarily small-budget, art-house affairs. And though she’s a prominent figure in new york’s tight-knit indie film community, where she and her producing partner, husband Jason Kliot, are based, Vicente isn’t a red-carpet regular. mostly she goes about her business—this oscar-nominated, sundance Film Festival–winning luminary—with little fanfare. But all that’s about to change. Vicente is well on her way to becoming a very big deal in new york, hollywood, and beyond, thanks to her post at the helm of the Independent Filmmaker Project (IFP), the nation’s largest collective of indie filmmakers. A year ago, the IFP unexpectedly won a city-funded bid to build the made in ny media center, a massive 20,000-squarefoot incubator in Brooklyn, new york, designed specifically for digital creatives, including not just filmmakers but also app developers, Web series creators, and the like. says Vicente, “this is the natural extension of what we do at the IFP: curating stories, connecting storytellers to resources and audiences—matchmaking.” Last month, the center finally opened its doors with the short-term goal of connecting storytellers with collaborators, mentors, and, ultimately, investors. In the long term, the goal is to cement new york’s status as the epicenter of digital media. What Robert De niro did for new york cinema with the tribeca Film Festival and what Jay z did for Brooklyn sports with the Barclays center, Vicente, 50, is doing for the city’s tech bona fides with the made in ny media center. Born in the then Portuguese colony of macao and raised in mozambique, Vicente met Kliot while studying in Lisbon, Portugal. Later the couple moved to new york and began working in film. huge supporters of digital film, which they saw as driv-

“Innovation comes from collaboration.” ing down the cost of filmmaking, they launched an all-digital film production company, hDnet Films, with billionaires mark cuban and todd Wagner. one of their first projects—Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room—received an oscar nod. When Vicente assumed the perch of the IFP in 2009, it was a “sinking ship” languishing in its 20thcentury thinking. But Vicente saw an opportunity to broaden the IFP’s reach. she amped up the celebrity quotient of the IFP’s annual Gotham Awards, which kick off hollywood’s glitzy movie awards season. And when new york mayor michael Bloomberg put out a call for bids last year to build the media center, Vicente pounced. With a bid that emphasized networking, the IFP beat out bigger media outfts like the tribeca Film Institute (De niro’s baby). Vicente’s role now is to oversee the new hub. “When I started, there was no Internet; now you can know everything instantly,” she says. But what hasn’t changed is the need for the right partners and a venue to broker those introductions. “Innovation comes from collaboration,” she says emphatically. “Bring storytellers together with people interested in developing software or hardware to help them, and let people tell their stories.” —Sarah Wildman

@Work

7 SecretS of Power NetworkiNg Your next job will likely come by way of a contact, so you better start mingling. Here, former banking exec Sallie Krawcheck, who owns 85 Broads, a global network for professional women, reveals how to schmooze your way to the top

1. Think broad, not deep.

“Women tend to fall into the ‘best friend syndrome.’ We invest deeply in our friendships and conﬂate casual relationships with shallow ones. But your acquaintances play a crucial role in your career. Someone you see only twice a year may know about opportunities you haven’t heard about.”

2. Cast a wider net. Networking within your profession won’t take you very far. “You’re aiming for reach—friends, classmates, neighbors. Plant a lot of seeds.”

3. Don’t make it all about you. People approach career opportunities the way they do social ones: Nobody wants to hang out with, let alone help, someone who is overtly self-serving. “At the end of the day, what we’re talking about is being sociable.”

4. Remember the quid pro quo.

Networking can’t be one-sided—both parties need to get something out of it. Ask yourself: What can I ofer that makes the relationship worth the efort? Pay it forward by brokering introductions or profering useful business insight. “The best kinds of connections are mutually beneﬁcial.”

5. It’s not only about your job search.

Fashion trends are f leeting. But true style always endures. Take our new fall collection for women. With bold colors and breathtaking patterns, our socks arenít just the last word in fashion ñ theyíre remarkably long-lasting as well. Learn more at goldtoe.com.

Networking isn’t just about ﬁnding a job. It’s also about making you better at the one you have. “The more time you spend gathering diverse information [from people in diferent industries and professions], the more valuable you are as an employee.”

6. Pursue your personal interests. It’s easier to break the ice with strangers when you’re actually interested in a social event’s subject matter. “It’s not ‘I’m here to network.’ It’s ‘I’m here to learn about X, Y, Z.’”

7. Lock it up by following through. Be sure to send a quick followup e-mail the day afer meeting someone. “Follow-through is what turns a contact into a connection.” —Karen Schwartz

“The best kinds of connections are mutually beneﬁcial.”

Snap Judgment

Your LinkedIn proﬁle is seven times more likely to be viewed if it includes a headshot. Here’s how to nail the perfect professional pic By J e n n i f e r G ol d s t e i n

The SetUp

You want something with more life than a basic corporate headshot, says linkedin Career expert nicole Williams. opt for color instead of black-and-white, smile, and avoid ultra-rigid poses in front of a wall or logo. “this isn’t facebook. so no photos of you and your dog—unless you’re a veterinarian,” she says. Have a friend take the picture in natural light from a level slightly above your face to prevent a double chin. Clothing-wise, stick with a simple top or sheath dress in a solid color (jewel tones look good on everyone) and avoid busy prints.

The MakeUp

The HaIr

the ultimate goal is to meet the people who are viewing your photo, so you should look like yourself, Williams advises. if you have curly hair, wear it that way—just avoid any products that will make strands greasy or crunchy. for straight or wavy hair, a smooth blowout with moderate volume is “the woman’s version of the man’s red power tie,” according to new York City hairstylist Gregory Patterson. His insider fix for last-minute flyaways: Mist them with a flexible-hold aerosol hairspray, then glide the body of the can over the strands. “the can is slightly cooler than room temperature, and that helps to set the hair,” he says. 1. dove style+Care flexible Hold Hairspray, $4. 2. blowpro Body by Blow no Crunch Volumizing Mousse, $20.

A little-known piece of immigration legislation is leaving the futures of thousands of women hanging in the balance By KAYL A We B L e Y MC SURVEY

While Congress biCkers over whether to include a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants in the pending immigration overhaul, many immigrant women who are here legally are waiting for legislators to take action on a much less controversial piece of the reform package. One of those women is Audrey Belliard Smit, 31, a French citizen who met her Danish husband in Ireland in 2007 when they were at roughly the same place in their advertising careers. A few years later, her husband started a new job in New York City. He was granted an H1B visa—the type given to highly skilled workers whose expertise is in demand in the U.S. But despite years of work experience at Microsoft and AOL, without a sponsor of her own, Belliard Smit was given an H4 visa—the type commonly awarded to dependents of H1B holders— and told she was not allowed to work. “It was a shock,” she says. “I was very career-driven; professional success has always been a big thing for me.”

One woman shelters girls from Thailand’s sex tourism industry, one folded towel at a time On a trip tO thailand two years ago, Alexa Pham was shaken when her translator was called to broker an unsavory deal: the sale of a Burmese teenage girl to an older European man. The seller—the girl’s mother—was asking for 3,000 baht (about $93), a motorbike, and a gold necklace. Pham managed to stop the sale, but she wanted to do more to help end the epidemic of sex trafficking in Thailand. According to the United Nations, Thailand is a destination for sex tourism, and most trafficking victims are minors. Pham, 30, decided the best way to keep women from the sex trade was to prepare them for a better career. Last December, the New Yorker moved to Thailand and self-funded the opening of Chai Lai Orchid, an eco-conscious lodge in the mountains of Chiang Mai that provides locals with training in the hospitality field, one of the

r e a l i t Y t V, 2 3 . 5 %

fastest-growing industries in Thailand. “The idea is to give guests the opportunity to realize their holiday budget can impact a local community in a positive way,” Pham says. The former photographer recruits members from the underprivileged hill tribe communities (with whom she now shares ownership of the resort) where girls—and especially young mothers—are at high risk of being sold or lured into prostitution. They receive at least six months of paid training in the hotel industry, including guest relations, housekeeping, reception, and cooking. They can also take free classes in business, math, and English. When they finish the training, they’re ready to be employed for their skills— not their bodies. So far, Pham has trained 18 women. “Our goal is to challenge social norms that say girls are a commodity to be bought and sold,” she says. —Rachel Heller

Sure, the time at home with the couple’s two young daughters has been nice, but after being out of the workforce for three years, Belliard Smit is eager to get back in. “When I look at how my husband’s career has progressed, that’s when it really hits me,” she says. “I can’t help but think, When will I get to move forward with my career, too?” Belliard Smit is one of hundreds of thousands of spouses, primarily women, who are allowed to live in the U.S. with their spouses but not allowed to have a job. In essence, they’re forced into a situation of dependency, which can cause a strain on their marriages, rather than being able to contribute to both their family’s income and the economy. These women are often just as well-educated as their partners, but they’re treated unequally. “It’s inhumane,” says Vivek Wadhwa, an immigration researcher at Stanford University. “What sort of country is this that brings people in but doesn’t give them equal rights?” H4 visas have been nicknamed “depression visas”—there’s even a Facebook group called “H4 visa, a curse” that has more than 3,500 members. It was started by Rashi Bhatnagar, 30, who holds a master’s degree from her home country of India, where she worked as a journalist before moving to the U.S. in 2009 with her software engineer husband. She attends as many as three classes a day at her gym to keep herself occupied. “I see a lot of women going to work, and I stay home alone,” she says. “I want to do something of my own. Back home I was very independent, but here my confidence is gone.” Both the Senate and House versions of the immigration legislation currently under debate include a provision that would allow H4 visa holders to work. According to the Migration Policy Institute, legislators of both parties are mostly in favor of the provision, but as a piece of the larger, divisive reform package, it’s unlikely anything will change for these women anytime soon. (A version of the immigration package passed the Senate in June, but at press time another version was stalled in the House.) “I need out of this situation,” Belliard Smit says. “I need the freedom to do what I want with the skills I have. I could do so much more.”

Women spend 30 percent more time on social-networking sites than men do. Apart from being a time-suck, women’s online activities are judged more harshly than men’s. That’s what Fordham University professor Alice Marwick found while researching her new book, Status Update: Celebrity, Publicity, and Branding in the Social Media Age (Yale University Press). in a chat with MC, she explains the benefits and costs of online branding as a female.

You can’t depend on a company to take care of your career anymore, so it’s important to differentiate yourself from other candidates by promoting your work. one hundred likes on a picture of your dog is going to have no impact on your life, but companies often hire individuals with heavy blog presences.

Veronika Scott

Providing Detroit’s homeless women with the skills to earn a paycheck Her inspiration: More than 20,000 people in Detroit are homeless. Veronika Scott, 24, a product designer, wanted to help, so she created a winter coat that converts into a sleeping bag to protect the homeless from the cold. When she brought her first prototype to a local shelter, the women there were not impressed. “We don’t need coats,” one told her. “We need jobs.” Her big idea: Scott quickly realized that “you need to invest in the person rather than the product,” she says. She started a nonprofit, The Empowerment Plan, to provide on-the-job training for women living in Detroit-based shelters. The women learn manufacturing skills from a professional seamstress and produce Scott’s coats, which are distributed to homeless populations nationwide. Results: Scott now employs 10 formerly homeless women who will soon be able to produce at least 600 coats a month. Next year, she plans to hire more workers and distribute as many as 8,500 coats. “I’m known as the crazy coat lady,” Scott says. —M.B.

WOMAN For Claire Holt, star of CW’s The Originals, following in the family tradition meant a test of endurance in her very ﬁrst triathlon Photograph by MeRedITH JenkS

The perfect way to get into a sport is: To support a charity. I competed in my first triathlon to raise money for the L.A. Children’s Hospital. My prep included: Running and Spinning in Georgia, where I was filming, and heading out on my road bike anytime I came back to L.A. It wasn’t the most professional training plan on earth! Personal trainer: My dad, who has done at least 50 triathlons, flew out from Australia and coached me in my living room. You lose time during the transitions between swimming, biking, and running, so he made me practice putting on my wet suit, taking it off, and then slipping on my running shoes. Moment of fear: I’m not scared of the ocean, because I grew up swimming in Australia, but the California waves were huge! The toughest leg: The bike ride, mentally. The final stretch: I was confident going into the run, but I was hurting so much that when I saw the mile marker, I thought, I’ve got one mile to go! Then I realized that actually I was only a mile [out of four] in. Throughout the race: I kept saying to myself, “I’m never doing this again.” And then as soon as I crossed the finish line, I was like, “I can’t wait till my next one!” @missclaireholt —Marnie Hanel november 2013 MARIeCLAIRe.Co M 189

Relax: I always have a glass of wine, and I start earlier than I normally would. It’s relaxing and reminds me that this is supposed to be fun and no one likes a stressed-out host.

Suzanne Goin, chef and author of The A.O.C. Cookbook (Knopf), suggests “balancing the expected favorites with some different dishes that riff on tradition.” Appetizer: Crowd favorites like bacon-wrapped dates with a sliver of fresh Parmesan or Gorgonzola with walnuts and honey are a no-brainer: easy to put together and much more festive than a sad bowl of chips and dip. Turkey: Give the bird a mini upgrade. Roast turkey legs in the oven with spices and lemon or try smoked turkey legs. Your main course will be preportioned and easier to clean up, and there will be no fighting over who gets to carve that glorious beast. Dessert: Pie in a jar! Line glass jars with pie crust and your favorite flavors (try pecan or pumpkin). You can use a cookie cutter to create the top layer from the remaining crust, then bake at 400 degrees for 40 minutes.

KATNISS EvErdEEN’S gUIdE To lIfE This monTh, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) returns in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, once again fighting for her life. Her strategies for survival don’t apply just to the deadly world of The Hunger Games, though. They’re also great pointers for that intense competition called Real Life.

Find a Great StyliSt: The bold

wardrobe choices of Cinna (Lenny Kravitz), the heroine’s stylist, made Katniss an instant icon and set her on fire—literally. Standing out from the crowd isn’t just about flourish; it can change the balance of power in your favor. Next time you give a career-critical presentation, remember: Dress the part.

whAT TO ReAD NOw

liSten to luSheS: Katniss’ mentor,

Haymitch (Woody Harrelson), might seem too soused to be of much help, but his experience has saved Katniss time after time, even as he slurs his words. So don’t discount the wisdom of drunks. They’ve not only been there, they’ve definitely done that (and worse).

live SuStainably:

Growing up in poverty taught Katniss the scavenging skills that keep her alive in the arena. She can’t afford to waste anything (water, medicine, time), and whatever rat race you’re running, neither can you! So be sure to reuse, adapt, and know your berries.

be incluSive:

Katniss often finds herself drawn to misfits who end up helping her in a pinch. The lesson: Hang out with loners. All that alone time has helped them forge invaluable skills. You might not know Photoshop, but if you make enough friends, one of them will.

don’t Play by the ruleS: Katniss

has a strategist’s mind and a skeptic’s heart. She knows how to survive but picks the right moment to flout The Hunger Games’ rules. On your next date, observe etiquette to a point—then do something unexpected. It always leaves them wanting more. —John Lopez

Social media’s newest manners maven randi Zuckerberg opens up about her biggest Facebook gaffe

M

y sister Donna

is an amazing cook, and last Christmas she was making Peking duck in honor of our family’s modern Jewish tradition of eating Chinese food on Christmas. We’re all so busy that it’s a real treat to get together. Everyone was gathered in the kitchen, clearing dishes and drinking coffee, while my brother [Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg] demonstrated the brand-new Poke app that Facebook had launched earlier that week. Through the app, you could send someone a message that would vanish in 10 seconds. We’d all downloaded Poke to try it out. I thought it was funny that here we were, standing around the 196 M A R I E C L A IR E .C OM November 2013

kitchen counter, everyone looking down at their phones, sending one another messages on Poke. So I snapped a photo of the scene and uploaded it to Facebook. I knew there was a chance that picture would leak—I never post anything online that I wouldn’t feel comfortable being reprinted on the front page of a newspaper. And this photo was the holy grail of tech photos: Facebook family, using Facebook, on Facebook. But I thought surely Christmas was a night when everyone could appreciate our family photo without going, “OMG! Look! I need to blog this!” About an hour later, I took a quick glance at Twitter and did a double take. Someone had taken the photo and reposted it. That meant that one of my Face-

Excerpted from Dot Complicated: Untangling Our Wired Lives by Randi Zuckerberg (HarperOne), due out this month.

ZUCKERBERG: StEphaniE RaUSSER/CORBiS. BOOK: COURtESY OF thE COMpanY

The day I wenT vIral

book friends had seen the photo, downloaded it or taken a screen shot of it, saved it to his or her phone or computer, then uploaded it to a totally different site. I fired off a Twitter response expressing my frustration. Then I went to bed. The next morning, practically every news station was talking about my Twitter exchange. Obviously people were greatly enjoying the Schadenfreude of a Zuckerberg getting mixed up in anything that had to do with Facebook and privacy. But it really wasn’t about that at all. This was about the gray areas of sharing, social conduct, and online etiquette. I post family photos on Facebook all the time for my friends to see. I see photos of my friends’ kids, weddings, and families. None of these photos are private, per se, but they are certainly personal, which means my friends trust me to behave appropriately when I see them. It’s generally pretty easy to identify information as either public or private. But when it comes to personal information—that middle ground between something that’s OK to share slightly outside your immediate circle but not with absolutely everyone—you enter a bit of a gray zone. Did you ever wonder why, in movies about the Old West, despite how hot it must have been, the frontier folk wore heavy suits and always spoke in a kind of flowery, polite way? It wasn’t just because it was fashionable— this kind of behavior played an important role in maintaining order in a strange new environment. The Internet is the latest technological improvement bringing us into unfamiliar territory, and as with previous frontiers, we’re going to need to grasp something that our parents, our teachers, and our communities probably spent a great deal of time instilling in us as we grew up, something known simply, for lack of a better word, as etiquette. Even though so much about the way we communicate has changed, certain basic rules of decency and civility haven’t and, in fact, may be needed now more than ever. In other words: Re-post unto others as you would have them re-post unto you.

Survival Guide Q:

Our ingenious team of beauty MacGyvers shares their strategies and shortcuts for staying polished this party season

This time of year, I have lots of afterwork parties. How can I freshen up my makeup without taking it all off first? —Melissa Koenig, 27, Aurora, CO

The experT: Raychel Wade, La Prairie’s New York City–based global color ambassador She says: There’s no need to start from scratch. Use blotting paper to remove T-zone shine, then clean up any smudged mascara or liner with Q-tips. If your eyeshadow has creased, use your fingertip to redistribute the color over your lids. Next comes the refresh: Dab a lightweight eye cream or serum beneath your eyes where skin tends to become dry at the end of the day, then pat a cream concealer on the inner corners of your eyes and along the sides of your nose, blending it out under your eyes. (Applying concealer to that triangle is a great way to look instantly revived.) Finish with a creamy highlighter on cheekbones and temples, and add a bright, sheer cream blush to the apples of your cheeks. The key is cream formulas: They help you cheat your way to fresh, dewy skin without reapplying moisturizer all over. Q: A few hours into the night, I look like a hot mess because my eye makeup smears. How can I keep it in place?

ellen von unwerth/trunk archive

—Alexandra Kinney, 23, Denver

The experT: Los Angeles L’Oréal Paris consulting makeup artist Billy B He says: The trick is to layer—and waterproof everything! For example, apply a kohl pencil on the upper lashlines, then set the lines with powder shadow in the same color. For more intensity, go over those two layers with a waterproof felt-tip liner.

If you really want to stay 100 percent smudge-free, don’t apply any color beneath your eyes. On lashes, waterproof mascara definitely won’t smear. My favorite has always been L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Carbon Black Waterproof, $8; it comes in a rich jet-black that looks great on everyone. Concentrate the formula on your top lashes to prevent smudging and to give eyes an instant lift. I rarely put mascara on the bottom lashes, but if you think you need it, apply it without the wand, which can

load on too much product. Instead, swipe a lip brush against the wand, then use it to lightly skim-coat the roots of your lashes from under the pupil to the outside corners. Just touch the brush at the roots; don’t coat all the way to the lash tips. Q: If I put on makeup, I look ashy in photos, but if I don’t, my face looks shiny.

your fingertips, moving across your eyebrows toward your temples, then underneath the eyes and across the cheekbones. Then go along the jawline to the lobes of the ears, and circle down the sides of your neck—always moving outward to the sides of the face. Q: I have short hair. Is there any way to make my cut look a little different and special for parties? —Courtney Gibson, 33, New York City

The experT: L.A. celebrity hairstylist Mara Roszak, whose clients include Emma Stone and Evan Rachel Wood

The experT: L.A.-based makeup artist Mai Quynh, who has worked with Jessica Chastain and Reese Witherspoon She says: To prevent an ashy appearance, use a liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer that leaves a semidewy finish, and go with a slightly darker shade—one that matches your body, not your face—to warm up the skin. Apply the product with a damp sponge so it’s very sheer. Flash photography reflects off anything shiny, so prep right before photos with blotting paper or a little translucent pressed powder on your T-zone. Since powder can appear chalky if you dust on too much with a brush, try this trick that actresses use: Press a velour puff into a trace of loose translucent powder and keep it in a Ziploc bag for touchups; the puff is a foolproof way to avoid applying too much.

Q: After a night of cocktails and salty appetizers, my face looks so puffy. What can I do? —Kelley Tafazzoli, 31, Knoxville, TN

The experT: NYC celebrity facialist Joanna Vargas, founder of the Joanna Vargas Salon and Skincare Collection For information on where to buy, see Shopping Directory.

She says: Minimal styling can completely dress up a short cut. If you usually wear your hair messy and tousled, slick it down and do a deep side part—it looks instantly sophisticated. Distribute a nickel-size amount of gel to almost-dry hair, rake it through with a comb, and make a clean part. (I like Gorilla Snot’s Rockero Original hair gel, $7—not a sexy name, but it won’t flake.) For textured styles, I love adding an accessory. Keep it simple: A graphic clip, like a knot or a twist, looks good, but anything too shiny or sparkly can overpower short hair. Place the clip off-center, leaving some strands loose to soften the look.

“Before bed, take a B complex vitamin supplement . . . it helps to decrease pufness the next day.”

Q: I’m going home for the holidays, and the hard water there makes my hair look like straw. Help!

She says: Glass for glass, match your alcohol consumption with water. (You’re at a holiday party, not a kegger in college.) Before bed, take a B complex vitamin supplement; it stimulates the lymphatic system to remove waste from skin cells, which helps to decrease puffiness the next day. In the morning, I recommend drinking a shot of liquid chlorophyll (find it at health food stores) to stimulate your lymphatic system and oxygenate your skin so you get a healthy glow.

They say: Hard water contains minerals that open the cuticle, drying hair and fading color. Since hotels (and most parents’ houses) don’t stock products for color-treated hair, bring your own— it makes a difference. To decrease exposure to the hard water, shampoo less frequently. And when you shower without shampooing, apply Goldwell Dualsenses Rich Repair 60sec Treatment, $18, to dry strands before you get in. The mask blocks the absorption of damaging minerals while providing a treatment. If your hair is unmanageable, style it in a simple topknot or bun. It’s an easy way to disguise damage and look “done” without using hot tools, which add to the dryness factor.

Jennifer Goldstein goes straight to the source of shea butter, the original multipurpose beauty balm

jergens Crema Deep-Conditioning Shea Butter, $6, made with shea from Africa; drugstore.com.

220 m A R IE C L A IR E .C om November 2013

The morninG commuTe in Larabanga is no joke. The village is one of many in northern Ghana that produces shea—the golden butter at the heart of the world’s most intensely moisturizing lotions—and the women who make the stuff get started early. When I arrive at 6:30 a.m. to tag along on their daily trek to gather shea fruit, the sun is low in the sky and the trees cast long shadows on the red-clay earth. “You’re late,” teases one of the women. “We usually leave at 4.”

on the hunt I fall in behind the group as they walk the familiar path to the shea trees, which grow wild in the savanna surrounding the village. Along the way, we jump over a parade of stinging ants and wade through waist-high grass. Deeper into the bush, I ask if they’re afraid of running into elephants. (An hour earlier, I had seen one cross the road nearby.) They laugh. “The elephants hear us coming and are gone before we arrive,” says Zeliatu, the group leader. “We’re more scared of snakes.” When we reach a 30-foot shea tree, I can see why snakebites are an occupational hazard. The tall grass makes it impossible to see the ground, and the women have to feel around with their toes and bend and sweep the grass aside to find the overripe shea fruits that have fallen. Above us, the bright green orbs dangle from branches, so I ask if we can just shake them down. “Those will make spoiled butter,” Zeliatu says. Clearly, I have a lot to learn.

making butter The next day, I visit Kanfiehiyili for a crash course in shea production. The village’s women work with the Global Shea Alliance (GSA), a nonprofit that empowers West African women in part by helping them improve production methods so the shea they make can be sold to beauty giants like Jergens, which is using it in a new Shea Butter collection. (Jergens, in turn, donates money for resources to the GSA.) First, the pits of the plum-size shea fruit are boiled and dried in the sun, then the women crack the outer shells and remove the “kernels,” which they roast and grind. The resulting paste is then mixed with warm water and kneaded by hand until it separates and the fat rises to the top. The fat gets boiled in large vats over fires until the water evaporates, then it’s stirred with wooden paddles to create a smooth butter. Finally, it cools and hardens in the dark. The finished product—100 percent pure African shea butter—is the original do-it-all beauty balm. Rich in fatty acids, it makes a great moisturizer and hair conditioner, and it’s often used to soothe scrapes and cuts. I watch one woman dab it on her chapped lips, while another rubs it on her grandson’s skin to relieve a rash. (Shea has anti-inflammatory properties that help speed healing time.) Following their lead, I smooth some over the bug bites on my arms, and they immediately feel better.

skin savior Later, I catch a quick flight south to Ghana’s capital city, Accra. Even hundreds of miles from the trees in the north, I still see shea everywhere. Vendors sell it by the kilo along the side of the road, and I spy a tub of it in a hair salon. At a local market, when I ask if there are any other beauty products I should try before I head home, I’m directed to a woman who sells “black soap,” which all the locals use. She hands me a slab and says the moisturizing formula makes an excellent shampoo and cleanser. “What’s it made with?” I ask. “Shea butter,” she answers. I should have known.

We’ve all wondered: Will bangs change my life? Sarah Z. Wexler chops in search of hair Nirvana

hiS iSn’ t the first time I’ve walked into a hair salon clutching a rippedout magazine photo of a celebrity’s haircut (often naturally straight, fine hair that’s been styled by a SWAT team of professionals) in hopes of duplicating the look on my own (thick, frizzy) head. There was a misguided attempt at The Rachel, of course, and the Winona Ryder Pixie Disaster of ’99. Today, more realistic and better trained in the art of hot-styling tools, I hold a shot of my bangs “spirit animal,” Zooey Deschanel. I’m hoping to add her adorable blunt-cut fringe to my own long, similarly textured hair. Truthfully, though, I could’ve picked out a picture of just about any star, since it seems half of Hollywood is rocking the fringe lately: Jessica Alba, Lauren Conrad, Jessica Biel, Kerry Washington, Alexa Chung, Taylor Swift . . . The list goes on. Still, I’m terrified, considering the last time I attempted bangs was in elementary school and the results were not pretty—not pretty as in, it looked like auburn broccoli was growing out of my forehead. That was before I considered styling products, or even bobby pins, so it meant months of covering my terrible bangs with an array of Blossom-inspired hats. I know that by trying again, I am putting the next year of my hair-upkeep life into a stylist’s hands, so I’ve come to pro hairstylist Ryan Trygstad at Sally Hershberger Downtown in New York City, who has cut bangs for Emmy Rossum and Demi Lovato. First, he tells me the good news: Face-shape-wise, I’m approved for blunt bangs. (They work on long or oval faces but are less flattering on round or short ones since they take off some length from your forehead.) The bad news is that texture-wise, I’ll have to deal with the double trouble of a hairline cowlick and natural waves. Before I can call my mom to complain about this genetic injustice, Trygstad tells me the solution is

Road Test: Bangs

TRIPLE-RESTORING ACTION 3 WEIGHTLESS OILS

simple: a keratin treatment on the front section of my hair so my bangs will lie flat and be easier to blowdry straight. After the treatment, I close my eyes as he snips a handful of my long hair until it hits right below my eyebrows, tapering it a little longer at my temples. I practically skip out of the salon—my hair is definitely strawberry-blonde Deschanel! Over the next few days, I revel in a compliment-fest. My bangs make my glasses look cooler; they make my ponytails seem perky and stylish; they even make me seem vaguely French. T he y a l so i n spi re my friend Cristina, who has always wanted bangs but hesitated because of her wavy texture, to hit the salon. (Hers look amazing, too, and we can’t stop telling each other this.) My bangs are someone else’s dream bangs! Another upside is I become less vigilant about tweezing my eyebrows since they’re pretty much hidden, as is the burgeoning wrinkle in between them. I decide that everyone who gets Botox should quit it and just get bangs instead. A week in, I notice I’m breaking out on my forehead. (Bangs Catch-22: Hair’s natural oils and product buildup can cause acne, but bangs also make it so no one can see my forehead—I’ll call it even.) Rainy days send me into hysterics and have me employing an arsenal of bobby pins to tamp down the inevitable frizz by pulling my fringe back. Going to the gym requires a very strong headband and a complete wash and restyle of my bangs. And unlike the rest of my hair, the bangs need to be washed every day or they look greasy, so I spend many mornings trying to shampoo the front of my hair in the sink. (I use dry

shampoo often, but it just makes a mess when my hairline is soaking wet from a speed walk to the subway or 30 minutes on the treadmill.) On the plus side, blowdry time is quick thanks to the keratin, and when I put in the 15 minutes, my bangs look great. But some mornings I don’t have—or just don’t feel like putting in—those extra 15 minutes, and bangs don’t have an “off” switch. Then a close friend tells me she now sees just bangs and glasses, not my actual face. The need for frequent trims (every three weeks or the hair starts to poke me in the eyes) makes me consider a DIY approach, which I know can only end badly. To fit in trims, I cancel a personal training session before work, and another time I bail on dinner with friends. You know that girl you think is cool but she’s so needy it starts to feel like the friendship isn’t worth it anymore? After four months, my bangs are that girl. So I decide to say good-bye to my blunt fringe, spending a few weeks with good side-swept bangs, and a few more with an awkward in-between length; they probably won’t be totally blended in with the rest of my hair for some time. Most hair grows only about half an inch per month, and since my hair growth is even slower than that, it takes a full eight months before people stop saying, “Growing out your bangs, huh?” I have good company for quitting, though: Michelle Obama, who got bangs earlier this year, has since described them as “irritating” and decided to grow them out. Like the babydoll dress I once loved but that now hides in the back of my closet, bangs aren’t for me, but they’re still a trend I’m glad I tried.

Though she hasn’t been seen on-screen in two years, Natalie Portman has been busy wrapping four movies, including this month’s Thor: The Dark World, prepping for her directorial debut, and planning a relocation to Paris.

i N d i N g t h e r i g h t l o c at i o N to meet Natalie Portman proves easier than expected because we both live in the same los angeles neighborhood known for its harmonious blend of nuclear families, artsy hipsters, and celebrities of the sort who just can’t stomach Beverly hills. Better yet, we both frequent the same section of griffith Park, a sprawling expanse that serves as the neighborhood’s communal backyard. Portman arrives driving a hybrid SUV, looking like half a dozen other young hikers, wearing pea-green shorts, weathered gray running sneakers, a gray t-shirt, and oversize blue sunglasses. “hi there,” she says in that famously singsong voice of hers. “hope you don’t mind company.” She peers down at her Yorkie terrier, Whiz, who looks large only when in the vicinity of his owner. at 5'3" Portman would look girlish under any circumstance. But today, in a simple ponytail and no makeup, she’s a 32-year-old who could easily pass for a college senior. en route up the fairly steep mountain trail we’ve chosen on this 90-degree day, there’s something all-business about her. initially, i can’t decide whether this is because of her oft-stated aversion to interviews (“i’d never do them if i didn’t have to”) or because this is just how she approaches everything. Not by accident does someone become, in addition to a movie star, a harvard graduate. as Portman gazes down at the parched l.a. skyline, i ask whether she’ll miss the place. her husband, the French ballet dancer and choreographer Benjamin millepied, was recently tapped to run the famed Paris opera Ballet. “Yeah, we’re moving at the end of next year,” she says with a sigh. “although obviously we’ll be spending a good deal of time there in the meantime.” describing her grasp of French as “oK,” Portman, who is fluent in hebrew, says she can get through a conversation. “i mean, not about, like, philosophy,” she explains. “But about this and that, i can manage.” admittedly, the move will be somewhat bittersweet for the couple, who met in 2009 while collaborating on Black Swan, the ballerina thriller that earned Portman an oscar, and married in 2012 in Big Sur, california. “i just really, really love it here,” she says, adding that millepied feels likewise, having spent the past year running the l.a. dance Project he founded. “it’s one of the most exciting places to be in the world right

now. it’s really central in terms of the arts. it feels like things are happening in l.a., you know? New York is more where art is bought than where art is made.” a moment later, she clarifies: “i’m really lucky. When Ben asked me if i wanted to go to Paris, i freaked. everyone dreams of living in Paris.” Portman frequently self-edits. For one thing, she refuses to be another spoiled star whining about the price of fame. “this isn’t a problem,” she says, more than once. “i’m very happy.” Such circumspection is born of her long experience in the public eye. She’s been a high-value paparazzi target ever since her star-making turn in luc Besson’s 1994 thriller The Professional, and her big-game status has remained unchanged for two decades, a period in which she has appeared in more than 30 feature films. and over the next year, she’ll be starring in four more that span the genre spectrum, from action to artsy. and yet Portman remains steadfast in her determination to live a low-profile life. “She’s a very private person,” explains darren aronofsky, who directed Black Swan. “But because she’s been in the spotlight since she was so young and she’s so beautiful, there’s this real attention on her. Usually people who are haunted by the paparazzi say they don’t want it, but they do. Natalie has no interest in that. She’s not playing that game.” Portman is the only hollywood a-lister who speaks authoritatively about israeli literature and microfinance (she’s the ambassador of hope for microloan charity FiNca and recently started working with Free the children, which builds schools in developing countries) while simultaneously using “like” as a verbal comma. She gets a little squirmy when asked to talk about Being Natalie Portman, but she could be forgiven her diffidence when asked about two forthcoming collaborations with the gifted but secretive terrence malick. in hollywood, the first rule of malick Film is: You don’t talk about malick Film. the second rule is: You can’t talk about malick Film because nobody really knows what the movie is until postproduction, during which the director frequently alters and cuts major characters and plotlines. “Who knows if i’ll even end up in the movies,” Portman says. “Seriously.” She does offer this: Years ago, during a rare opportunity to meet the reclusive auteur, she told malick how dearly she loves his films, which include the classics Badlands, Days of Heaven, and The Thin Red Line. then, in 2011, malick called Portman out of the blue. “i’m doing two movies in a row,” he said, offering no further elaboration. “Would you do them?” She said yes on the spot. Portman is freer to discuss her big-ticket role in this month’s Thor: The Dark World, a sequel to the hit 2011 superhero movie about the Norse god of thunder (portrayed by chris hemsworth). in both movies, Portman plays the gamine scientist who tames thor’s heart. the sequel was developed amid reports that Portman was reluctant to make a second go of it. “No,” she says flatly. “chris is, like, one of the greatest people in hollywood. he’s the kind of actor who’s so charismatic, he must be tired when he goes home.” that production began on the heels of the malick films proved to be a nice counterbalance, especially as she prepares to direct her first feature film, A Tale of Love and Darkness, based on the novel by the israeli writer amos oz. Portman plans to cast mainly israeli actors, herself included, and film in her birthplace

Choice Words On making highbrow and lowbrow ﬁlms: “I grew up around a lot of snobbism about what was important and what was serious, and I really reject that.”

Her goals: “I want to treat people well. I want to be kind, and I want to be honest about the things that are important to me.”

On fans: “People are really cool, by and large. I try and stay away from drunk people—that’s when they start getting rude or aggressive, like, ‘Why did you suck in that movie?’”

What her parents did right: “They made me feel that they would drop anything at any time to help me. I never felt like there was anything more important than me. Which I know can probably create an asshole, too. It gives you a deep sense of security and safety to feel that your parents will love you no matter what.”

Big SHAME campus I on

n the winter of 2012, Grace Peter, a sophomore at the University of north Carolina at Chapel hill, was raped. the biology major was admittedly very drunk at an off-campus party when a stranger led her to the other side of the apartment complex and forced himself inside of her. Peter remembers sayBy kayla webley ing no, screaming, shoving, and kicking to try and make him stop. She didn’t know his name or that he was a fellow tar heel, and she didn’t report it to the school or the police right away. Being raped was horrific enough—Peter was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and took a semester off from school—but after learning her rapist’s identity, reporting it to university officials made the nightmare worse. She had opted to go through UnC’s honor System, the student-led body that adjudicates school honor-code violations, thinking it would be swifter and less painful than a full criminal investigation. Provided with an undergraduate student “lawyer,” Peter pleaded her case for seven hours before the honor Court, seated at a table with the senior she says raped her. the questions asked ranged from insensitive to insulting: Did the antidepressants she had been taking predispose her to imagining the assault? was her PtSD caused by something other than the attack? the members of the honor Court felt because she and her rapist hadn’t known each other, he couldn’t have been aware of how drunk she was or that she didn’t like being “pushed around.” the verdict of not guilty devastated Peter, who filed an appeal and was granted a second hearing. But her assailant was afforded extension after extension, even as Peter begged administrators to schedule it. She missed classes to sit by the phone in case the Office of Student Conduct called with the new hearing date, but “the administration didn’t seem pressed to finish it or find a solution,” says Peter, now 21.

When 1 in 5 women will be the victim of a sexual assault during her college years, you’d think schools would tackle the problem head-on. Instead, investigations are lackluster or nonexistent and rapists go unpunished. Now victims are ﬁghting back—not against their attackers, but against the schools that violated their trust and kept them silent for too long

—Said to angie epifano, a former amherSt college Student, by the School’S then Sexual aSSault counSelor

last april, more than a year after she reported the rape, she dropped the case. “i felt like it was never going to end,” she says, “and i just couldn’t do it anymore.” Her alleged rapist had graduated, so even if Peter had continued to push for a hearing, he likely wouldn’t have been punished. (after all, you can’t suspend an alumnus.) Since the attack, Peter is pursuing a less rigorous B.a. in biology instead of a B.S.; has withdrawn from her role as campus forums programmer and her position in the student union; and is counting the days until graduation in may, when she can “run away from chapel Hill and not look back.” (She chose not to transfer schools because UNc is the best public university she can afford.) “if i had known it was going to take more than a year and change so much about my experience at carolina, i definitely would not have reported it,” Peter says. “i was constantly betrayed by the university. every step forward i took, i was defeated.” Separately, before Peter’s case, a UNc administrator asked 2011 graduate annie clark to think about what she might have done to avoid her rape: “rape is like a football game,” the administrator said, according to clark. “if you look back on the game and you’re the quarterback, is there anything that you would have done differently?” Peter, clark, and two other students filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of education (eD) in January that alleges UNc violated the rights of sexual assault victims and facilitated a hostile environment for students reporting sexual assault. Joining the students was melinda manning, the university’s assistant dean of students for 11 years, who stepped down a month before the complaint was filed. manning says other administrators applied “subtle pressure” on her to keep the number of reported rapes at a certain lower range each year. “most schools would sweep sexual assault under the rug, minimize it, rather than fully acknowledge it. We were certainly guilty of that,” she says. “at the end of the day, i felt like we were really failing our students. Until schools are willing to acknowledge the substantial problem it is, they’re not going to be willing to put in the resources to really look at their policies and procedures and make sure that they are victim-friendly and fair for all parties.” a UNc spokeswoman says the university cannot comment on specific cases, but she e-mailed several statements the administration has issued in response to allegations from Peter, clark, and other current and former students who say the school mishandled their cases. “We’re focused on the safety of our students, as well as faculty and staff, and have an obligation to

do everything we can to provide the care and support they need if a sexual assault occurs,” then chancellor Holden Thorp told the campus community in a march 2013 statement. in recent months, UNc formed a task force made up of students, faculty, staff, and outside experts to review the school’s policies and procedures. So far, the policies have been revised to provide equal appeal rights for both the accused and the accuser, and the burden of proof has been lowered so victims need only prove a crime more likely occurred rather than occurred beyond a reasonable doubt. The university has also created three staff positions to improve UNc’s response to cases of sexual violence and transferred jurisdiction from the student-led Honor court to a committee of specially trained members that consists of one faculty member, one staff member, and one student.

S

cHoolS of all SizeS and levels of prestige might take cues from UNc’s efforts at course correction. college women nationwide say they’re being contradicted, discouraged, ignored, and even blamed when they come forward to report a sexual assault—and not just by fellow students like those who decided Peter’s case. Twentyone-year-old angie epifano, a former student at amherst college in massachusetts, whose online account of her rape and subsequent treatment by university officials went viral last year, says she was told that pressing charges was useless because the student who raped her was about to graduate. The school’s sexual assault counselor said, “rape happens. You need to forgive and forget.” (amherst says the counselor no longer works there.) When Tucker reed, 23, a theater major at the University of Southern california, told an administrator last year that she had been raped, she says the administrator was dismissive, even after being given an audio recording on which reed’s perpetrator can be heard admitting to the rape. “We know that all the students at this university are good people,” the administrator told her. “That’s why they’re here.” (USc issued a statement saying it takes “all reports of sexual violence extremely seriously.”) Hope Brinn, a junior at Swarthmore college in Pennsylvania, says the school’s Title iX coordinator asked, “What did you do that would make him act like that?” when she reported being sexually harassed by a fellow student. (Swarthmore says that person is no longer the Title iX coordinator, though she is still employed by the university.) Kylie angell, a 23-year-old graduate of the University of connecticut, told a campus police officer she was being stalked by the man who raped her. His response? “Women need to stop spreading their legs like peanut butter, otherwise rape is going to keep happening till the cows come home.” (Uconn says it was difficult to review angell’s case because the police department wasn’t aware of the comment until a year after it was allegedly made.) like Peter, many of these women and others interviewed for this story say that given the chance to do it all over, they wouldn’t report the crime. and why would they, if they were made to feel as reed did: “like i was being continually raped dealing with these people.”

Clark and pino have sinCe started the nonprofit end rape on Campus to assist Campus aCtivists filing similar Complaints.

But rather than continue to feel powerless and alone, hundreds of students and alumni have, like Peter and clark, banded together to file complaints with the eD; start nonprofits; and build a survivor network too vocal and law-savvy to contradict, discourage, ignore, or blame. in their way, they refuse to be victims all over again. “it didn’t start out by people saying, ‘We’re going to file a complaint! We’re going to sue the school!’” says reed. “it was more like, ‘How could they have done this to you and you and you, and think we wouldn’t end up talking to each other and figuring out the pattern?’”

ollege aDmiNistrators are legally obligated to take steps to end sexual assault at their schools. Under title iX, a portion of the education amendments of 1972, colleges cannot discriminate on the basis of gender. the law prohibits sexual harassment, including acts of sexual violence, because it interferes with a student’s right to receive an education free from discrimination. (rape can also be prosecuted by the criminal justice system, but because sexual assaults pose an obstacle to a student’s having equal access to education, colleges are required to act. the women interviewed here did not pursue

criminal charges because they, like Peter, thought going through the school would be faster and less arduous.) college officials also have an obligation under the clery act—named for Jeanne clery, a 19-year-old student at lehigh University in Pennsylvania who was raped and murdered by a fellow student in 1986—to track and disclose information about crime on or near campus. this year alone, title iX or clery act complaints that allege administrators mishandled incidents of sexual assault have been filed against Dartmouth college in New Hampshire; occidental college in california; swarthmore college; the University of colorado, Boulder; the University of california, Berkeley; and Usc, in addition to UNc. (asked for comment, all schools said they are reviewing their policies and implementing changes.) at press time, the eD was investigating 18 title iX complaints that involved sexual violence allegations (including the one filed by the UNc students and manning) and 14 clery act November 2013 marie claire . co m 255

hIS STUnnIng lACk of urgency on the part of schools prompted the Obama administration to try to spur college leaders to take these crimes more seriously. In April 2011, OCR sent college administrators nationwide a 19-page “Dear Colleague” letter to more clearly spell out what is expected of them. “It’s too easy for sexual violence to exist in the shadows and behind closed doors,” says John DiPaolo, deputy assistant secretary for policy at OCR. “It’s really unique and extraordinary in a terrible way that there’s that level of sexual violence going on in places where otherwise things are relatively safe. What if that were the case with gen-

eral assault or robberies at gunpoint? It would just be unthinkable.” The letter directed universities to resolve cases promptly (typical investigations should take about 60 days) and use the “preponderance of evidence” standard of proof (i.e., if it’s more likely than not that an assault occurred, the school must respond). The letter also reminded schools of their obligation under Title IX to protect the victim during the investigation, which may mean rearranging class schedules and dorm assignments, or removing the accused student from the school altogether so the victim is not forced to regularly encounter her assailant. But writing down what should happen doesn’t mean it’s actually happening. “We have policies, we have very pretty words, but implementation is lacking,” says Clark. College administrators have an incentive—as perverse as it is—to silence rape allegations. keeping the college’s reputation untarnished is the foremost concern in order to keep the number of applicants consistent and the alumni dollars flowing—the stuff of glossy

sexual-violence-related complaints. If found guilty, schools can be handed hefty fines—not to mention a blemish on a reputation they tried to protect at a victim’s expense. In May, after a sevenyear investigation, the ED fined Yale University in Connecticut $165,000 (which was later reduced to $155,000) for failing to report four incidents of forcible sex offenses in 2001 and 2002 under the Clery Act. (The ED’s Office for Civil Rights [OCR] says it tries to wrap up Title IX investigations within six months but that Clery Act reviews, which are harder to prove, take several months to several years.) In September, Yale released a document to clarify the meaning of “nonconsensual sex” in response to protests that the university was not punishing perpetrators aggressively enough.

It was bad enough when rachel Heller discovered she had HPV. Then she had to tell her new guy about her status

How do you dress for a date on which you plan to tell the person you’re falling for that you have an incurable sexually transmitted infection? I went with sensible leather flats that would transport me back to my car quickly in the Los Angeles twilight, after his inevitable “I can’t see you anymore”; plain gray trousers that would modestly sheath my thighs in his presence; and an old striped top with tiny moth holes near the collar and hem, faded and worn-out, like I’d surely feel later that night. Usually I’d put more effort into my appearance for a second date. I’d comb straightening serum into my hair and swab shadow onto my eyelids. I’d wear a shirt that didn’t have holes in it, at the very least. But why bother? He was going to dump me anyway. I was once optimistic about dating. Though never a 10 on the self-confidence scale (or even—let’s be honest—a perfect seven), I had enough strength to believe that the right guy would overlook my flaws. My chronic lateness? No problem!

“HPV isn’t a personality quirk I can explain away.” alone: HPV is the most common STI in the U.S. Most sexually active adults get it at some point, with nearly 60 million women—38 percent of the entire female population—infected at any given time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But while 90 percent of HPV infections go away within two years and never produce symptoms, mine didn’t.

In the seven days until each of my test results came back negative, purple shadows formed under my eyes and I bit my nails down to the quick. Prodded by friends, family, and my mother’s polite request for grandchildren, I eventually worked up the nerve to start dating again. I filled out an online profile and soon found myself trading e-mails with a bumbling, sincere computer programmer named Mike, who admitted a weakness for Hello Kitty, chili fries, and rare birds. Near the end of our second marathon phone call, he said, “At this point, I wouldn’t care if you had two heads.” What about an STI? On our first date, he snatched my heart from its shroud over spicy tuna

GUY AROCH/tRUnk ARCHive

My braying anxiety? Not so bad! But HPV is different. It’s not a personality quirk I can explain away or an endearing habit a man might learn to love. It’s a disease, one with symptoms that range from embarrassing to deadly—in some cases, genital warts; for high-risk strains, the possibility of cervical cancer. Some treatments can even lead to infertility. And on top of that, it’s contagious. When my doctor first told me I had two strains of HPV, low-risk (the warts) and high-risk (the cancer causer), I was struck speechless. It was the day after my 24th birthday, and I shivered on the examination table, a paper gown across my lap, clenching my knees together as my cheeks flushed red. How had this happened? I could count my sex partners on one hand. Yet after a certain point, I had trusted each enough to skip using a condom. One must not have known he was infected. So there I was, stumbling out of the drugstore into the blinding afternoon light with an expensive tube of ointment in my purse, spe-

and shrimp rolls at a tiny restaurant a few blocks from the beach. I tucked my fingers into the crook of his arm and touched his lustrous brown curls. After dark, we padded onto the sand and kissed under a patient moon. The next day, my brain roiled with conflicting visions of our future. Like waves crashing against a seawall, my desire collided with the barrier of my still-hidden illness. “This is the coolest date-and-a-half I’ve ever had,” Mike said that evening. Just wait, I thought. We made plans to meet for dinner the next night. No question, this was when I would have to tell him. Even though HPV is commonplace, that doesn’t make it palatable, especially with a cancer warning attached. He might find me attractive, but would he still want to sleep with me? As I parallel-parked near his building that afternoon, my impending admission felt like a 2-ton anvil on my shoulders. Up in his apartment, I excused myself to go to the bathroom and practiced my not-about-to-cry look in the mirror. Then I crossed the living room and sat next to him on the couch. “OK,” I said. “I have to talk to you.” He nodded as my confession tumbled out. He said “Mm-hmm” a couple of times. He placed his hand on my knee. Then he pulled me close. Great, I thought, a good-bye hug. “Being nice to me now will only make it

HPV It’s a confusing virus, but Dr. Deborah Nucatola, senior director of medical services at Planned Parenthood Federation of America, gives us the lowdown

What it is: HPV, the human papillomavirus, is different from most sexually transmitted infections because it can clear up on its own. Whether you have a low- or high-risk strain, most cases are like the common cold: No medication is necessary.

harder,” I managed to croak. But his next line surprised me: “If we don’t work out, it’ll be for regular reasons, not for this.” Relieved, I sobbed into his freshly laundered sleeve, staining it dark and slick, marveling that this sleeve was still available for me to slobber on. He had questions: Is it uncomfortable? (Not really.) Will it ever go away? (It might, but no one knows when.) Yet he didn’t judge me. He still wanted to see me—and perhaps do more than see me, I realized, by the way his lips brushed my neck later that night. In fact, the outcome that came to pass was the only one I hadn’t allowed myself to imagine. Now that we’re engaged, I think of that night with Mike often. Since we’re monogamous, we no longer use condoms. My HPV hasn’t interfered with my ability to have kids, so the only question now is when. Yet I still remember hiding behind my hair as I told him what it meant, and how the last thing I wanted was to expose him to the same nagging risk—the risk of warts, of passing it on, of shame. I remember how my fingers toyed with the holes at the hem of my shirt. But the more I think about it, Mike wasn’t looking at my tattered attire. His eyes lingered on what lay beyond it: a human girl full of worry and love, warm and vibrant and whole. He saw the person cowering behind the disease. I’m glad I finally did, too.

Get the HPV HPV test—have vaccination if no symptoms but you’re not yet

sexually active or under 26 (when the vaccine is most effective, according to studies). Condoms won’t totally prevent your chance of contracting the virus, but they can reduce your risk. If you’ve been diagnosed with a high-risk strain: Don’t panic. An abnormal Pap test and a positive HPV test do not mean you have cancer. Your doctor will track the changes of your cervical cells over time. —Melissa Bykofsky

This month, our wingwoman Siggy Flicker advises Erica Citrin, a preschool teacher intermittently involved with— and hung up on—a close friend

boyfriend”

Erica Citrin

ERICA, 31: For the past five years, I’ve been with this same guy, but he won’t commit—I call it a “situationship,” not even a “relationship.” When we hang out, we mostly stay in and order takeout, but we talk almost every day. I’ve tried to walk away, but I always compare other guys with him. SIGGY: Sure, because you’re still attached! It’s like wearing Uggs. You know you have to wear heels, but really you just want to curl up on your couch and wear slippers. You’ve made it too comfortable for him. Is he your age? ERICA: Yes. SIGGY: I want you to date someone older. When you were in college, it

made sense to date guys your age; that’s who you met. Now you need a mature and compassionate man. ERICA: Should I stop taking his calls? SIGGY: No. Say, “Hi, how are you? I’d love to talk, but I’m about to go out on a date.” ERICA: Actually, every time I went on a date, he’d call. It’s like he had a radar. SIGGY: Act as if nothing bothers you. Like, “You want to put me in the friend zone? Watch what type of friend I can be.” Men love a challenge. ERICA: I’m not a challenge. I’ll say, “We can’t talk anymore.” SIGGY: No, that means you care. Meet him for lunch. “Oh, hi, work is great, I’m dating.” You’ll either drive him crazy and get him over the hump, or you’ll date older, wiser men and they’ll turn you off him. You win either way. ERICA: He’ll call at 12:30 on Saturday night. What am I going to do, not answer the phone? SIGGY: Don’t ever answer the phone on Friday or Saturday! Those are for dates. It’s none of his business what you’re doing on Saturday at 12:30 a.m. My whole point here is to drive him insane. Two weeks later, after following Siggy’s advice . . . ERICA: I’ve gone out on a few dates—my first one with an older man is next weekend. As for my ex, it was uncomfortable to have

quick little conversations. He doesn’t like that I’m dating. SIGGY: He has to man up and do something about it! By dating, you’re saying, “I’m worthy of a relationship.” And dating men who are 35 to 39—that’s in your age group. It’s not old. ERICA: It’s like I’m coming out of my comfort zone. Before, I thought, I’ll be ready to date when I’m over him. But going out took my mind off of it. SIGGY: People say, “Oh, I have to lose 10 pounds” or “I have to ﬁnalize my divorce.” You can’t put it all on hold. ERICA: Right. If I really waited, I’d never go out with anyone! SIGGY: The more you do it and fall flat on your face, the more you’ll be OK. “It didn’t hurt that bad! It was OK!” That’s what life is about.

The SoluTion Siggy’S Step-by-Step Rx:

1. Pull back from your stand-in guy and ramp up your dating efforts. 2. Don’t cut him off completely— just shorten your conversations. Let him know other men are interested. 3. If he calls or texts late at night, don’t answer, even if you’re alone. 4. Look for older men, who are— hopefully—more mature and serious about commitment. Have a question for Siggy?

W h at i t i s : Bespoke Inn, a B&B-avec-bike-shop in Scottsdale, arizona, was created by a couple obsessed with good food, cool bikes, and making stuff by hand. in roo m : Fresh flowers and lovingly crafted furniture.

Rates start at $259 per night (bespokeinn.com).

Recent research shows that three four-minute high-intensity workouts a week may be as beneficial as three low-to-moderate-intensity 45-minute sessions. DrY run: I ask Brent Carter, an instructor at Focus Personal Training Institute in new York City, to take me through a sample workout. he recommends alternating a minute of kettlebell swings with a minute of burpees. “Your heart rate needs to be at about 90 percent of its max to see benefits,” he explains. The intensity taps into the body’s anaerobic energy system, stimulating production of growth hormones that will supposedly help me torch more calories. We warm up, then Carter sets a timer. Two minutes in, I am gasping for breath and my thighs are on fire. at the four-minute mark, my last burpee barely leaves the ground, and I’m only at 84 percent of my max heart rate. V erDict : on a busy week, I may do three short sessions, but I won’t switch permanently. The intensity sucks all the enjoyment out of exercise. —J.C.

Good-Vibe Vitamins If you take mood-stabilizing meds, holiday stress can be enough to send you to the doctor for a higher dose. Instead, consider vitamins: An independent review study from the University of Canterbury reported that broad-spectrum supplements such as Daily Essential Nutrients and EMPowerplus (they’re formulated with a larger range of vitamins and minerals in higher doses than typical multivitamins) may help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Research has also shown that those with mood disorders who took supplements experienced about a 50 percent decrease in symptoms in three months.

horoscope

November has Aquarius combining love and friendship (how sweet, Emma Roberts!), brings a windfall to Aries (ready to spend, Norah Jones?), and has Scorpio needing a boost (it’ll be OK, Rachel McAdams!) By Lu na C .

Pisces

Cancer

(October 23–November 21) The Mood: Heavy The ForecasT: Use the eclipse on the 3rd to lift your self-esteem. Hang with a friend who points out why you’re fabulous. Love: Venus will prod you to reveal what’s in your heart after the 5th. Money: Fiscal obstacles will seem less daunting when you accept a gift or let a friend pick up the tab. Power day: November 3

(February 19–March 20) The Mood: Heated The ForecasT: Thanks to Mars, friends and family will challenge you to be more focused and present. Love: Mercury could inspire you to take a trip with your partner. Use it to make your sex life more exotic and meaningful. Money: A slap on the wrist might force you to closely consider your spending patterns. Power day: November 19

(June 21–July 22) The Mood: Befuddled The ForecasT: You’re hung up on moral issues, but with Neptune’s help, you’ll know what to do. Love: Early in the month, you might wonder if you should stay or go. Don’t react—first, just calm down. Money: You can have fun this month—as long as you don’t gamble what you can’t afford to lose. Power day: November 13

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21) The Mood: Industrious The ForecasT: Whistling while you work could provoke acts of genius. Love: Can’t stop agonizing? Let Mercury help your heart answer the pointless questions in your head. Money: A career win leads to financial flexibility. Start setting aside for a wonderful winter adventure. Power day: November 5

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) The Mood: Whimsical The ForecasT: The full moon in your house of diversion will help you find the path to the dance floor. Love: Worried you’re rushing into love? Jupiter will help you figure out where your dedication to a partner begins and ends. Money: A friend could offer the kind of sound financial advice you need. Power day: November 17

Aquarius

scorpios like Rachel McAdams could use a selfconﬁdence boost.

(January 20–February 18) The Mood: Authoritative The ForecasT: When your boss needs ideas, she’ll come to you. Sure, it will mean more responsibility—but more recognition, too! Love: Romance and friendship are tangled up now—maybe you’ll pair off with a pal or find that you’re more than friends with someone. Money: Jupiter will make it easy to work harder for your paycheck, especially if you accept help from your coworkers. Power day: November 25

270 m a r ie C L air e .C om november 2013

Aries (March 21–April 19) The Mood: Responsible The ForecasT: An authority figure will prove that you can’t always get what you want: Stay focused on the bigger mission. Love: Use the Scorpio sun’s energy to rev up your libido. Plot fresh methods of seduction. Money: The full moon on the 17th could provide some unexpected cash. Pay off a long-overdue bill. Power day: November 1

Taurus (April 20–May 20) The Mood: Jumpy The ForecasT: Your nervous energy can frazzle you—or it can motivate you to take more chances. Love: Your strong feelings will become even more powerful as the sun rocks your house of sex on the 22nd. Money: If you’re looking for a bonus, it’s time to prove you’re indispensable by closing that huge deal. Power day: November 14

Gemini (May 21–June 20) The Mood: Engrossed The ForecasT: A holding pattern at the office might break when Mercury leaves retrograde on the 10th. Love: If you’ve been keeping someone special at arm’s length, let yourself fall in love. Money: Jupiter will help your cash flow—but it can disappear quickly. Buy just one luxe “necessity.” Power day: November 10

Leo (July 23–August 22) The Mood: Antsy The ForecasT: Time to rearrange your furniture, find a new home, or move in with your partner. Love: It’s your turn to lead. Drag him out on a date, then strip off his suit for some down and dirty action. Money: Mars will bring an economic stimulus. Devise leakproof strategies for keeping your assets as they grow. Power day: November 4

Virgo (August 23-September 22) The Mood: Circumspect The ForecasT: Want people to take you seriously? Collect your thoughts and give more compliments. Love: Even if you’ve been together for a while, his affection won’t linger forever. Money: Venus could bring cash through speculation—maybe take a tiny sum to the slots? Power day: November 23

Libra (September 23–October 22) The Mood: Flush The ForecasT: It’s time to splurge on something that makes you feel fabulous. Why not? Love: Sometimes your partner’s cringe-worthy antics feel more erratic than erotic, but you’ll be glad you stuck around. Money: Think of investing as a long-term proposition—you’ll burn through cash at a less fevered rate. Power day: November 18

Clip, save, share: We predict you’ll send a friend her forecast.
