I am a junior at Fordham University in the Bronx. I also have taken classes at the Lincoln Center campus and from my encounter on these campus's, I've definitely noticed the most popular fashion trends at Fordham. Here's what I've noticed!

Sweatpants Are Acceptable?

Acceptable enough, at least, for a huge portion of students to wear them going about their days, at class and even at work! I'm a huge fan of matching sweatsuits; I think they're very trendy and I own a few myself. However, I do think that there is a time and place for sweatpants and I definitely wouldn't wear this to work. That being said, I'm not a huge fan of baggy pajama like sweatpants. I just don't think it looks good, but to each their own!

Trendy / Unique Trench Coats

I've recently a lot more unique patterned trench coats in place of the traditional oversized black winter jacket. I definitely love this trend and tried a green plaid trench coat with my Rent The Runway subscription!

I think that using jackets as an additional fashion statement or way to show off your style is super cool and I'm happy to see that we're expanding from the traditional winter coat.

NY has terrible winters, so we may as well take advantage of it however we can and rock some cool jackets!

Business Casual / Everyday Attire 

A lot of people go for the everyday attire that is sometimes a bit more on the business casual side and other times more on the trendy and stylish side! I'm a fan of all aspects of this trend and definitely rock this trend quite often myself. I think a solid pair of jeans with a stylish sweater or shirt paired with the right shoes can be just what you need to look put together and ready to tackle your day, without requiring too much thought or effort.

Girl Boss 

Another trend that I am definitely a fan of and rock myself is the girl boss vibe! It can be jeans with a button down blouse and booties and you're rocking people's socks off. It doesn't take a dress or super expensive clothes to make a girl boss vibe, just experiment with what you have and flaunt it!

I believe that comfort comes over everything so if you wear outfits that comfortable and make you feel confident, it will work wonders for you!

Hipster

There is definitely a huge population of students at Fordham that are very trendy and wear what I would categorize as hipster clothes. From band tees to patterned pants, there is definitely a very creative and outgoing side to Fordham's population and I absolutely love seeing what unique and bold statements my fellow classmates can make with their outfits.

Business Man

I can't remember the last time I went about campus and didn't see a guy in a suit. Besides looking like a pretty boy, dressing in a suit will make you look and feel more professional and may influence how you go about your day.

I do not wear suits, but I can imagine that they can be quite uncomfortable so if you don't NEED to wear a suit but want to look very professional and put together, I am a huge fan of a blazer with jeans and dress shoes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
