While some of America continues to provoke hate, speak harsh words, and feel ill emotions about the inauguration, I've decided to focus on something much more positive: Melania Trump's baby blue attire. You can love her, you can hate her, but you cannot deny the woman's sense of fashion.


To The Designers Who Refused To Dress Melania Trump,

This is for you. So listen up Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford, Sophie Theallet, and the fifteen plus of your fashionista friends who refused to dress our country's new first lady. I hope that as you watched Melania parading gracefully down the streets of our nation's capital your jaw managed to hit the floor.

Ralph Lauren is an utter champ. His delicate baby blue, form fitting, shawl shouldered outfit could not have fit Melania, or the occasion any more perfectly.

It was timeless, classy, and well, quite frankly everything that you are not.

Given that her array was overly chic, I'm convinced that you could have never designed something this elegant to begin with.

While you're busy bashing Melania's name, Ralph Lauren is over here getting all the fame.

It would be in our country's best interest if every first lady from here on out refuses to wear your glitzed and glammed dresses. You clearly lack respect for our country, and our leaders. You should feel privileged that you were asked to dress a first lady, but instead you were disgusted. I'm sure that disgust went away as soon as Melania revealed her breathtaking attire that certainly did not have your name all over it.

Your job is to make money, and you do so by designing clothes. If you have the right to pick and choose who you're willing to do your job for, then I suppose since you're nobody special that the rest of us get to do the same. Therefore, don't be surprised when the next time when you're eating at your five star, caviar restaurant, if the chef decides he'd rather not cook food for you.

This isn't about politics, this is about fashion.

The truth is, confident Melania probably could've worn a garbage bag and rocked it. Instead, she opted to attempt to drown herself in garments screaming your name. When you declined the opportunity to dress it, it spoke volumes about yourself and absolutely nothing about her.

Melania then turned to Ralph Lauren, who I can best define as someone who clearly isn't lacking patriotism or a good pastel print. (Or fame either, given that the matching silk gloves that were the perfect accent have the whole nation talking.)

We all know that broke college student me cannot afford your clothes, but if I could you should know that I sure would not be buying them.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
