20 Outfits That Prove That Melania Trumps Jackie Kennedy As First Lady Fashion Icon

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwh7tceU9gw

No matter what political party you may or may not belong to, you have to admit, Melania Trump has style and carries herself with class and kindness. As a former fashion icon, it was to be expected that she would slay as The First Lady, and she has not disappointed yet. She has worked with stylist Hervé Pierre since her husband was inaugurated. Recently, President Donald Trump referred to her, as the next Jackie Kennedy. He told Fox & Friends, "You know the baby blue doesn't fit with us," noting he plans to replace it [Air Force One paint job] with a darker navy and the gold stripe along with the aircraft with one in red. He says: "That was Jackie O and that's good, but we have our own Jackie O today, it's called Melania."

In light of this, I have collected some of Melania's most iconic looks. As First Lady, it is quoted that, "fashion was a means to create an identity for an administration." Judge for yourself if she reaches Jackie status below:

Deep Ocean Exploration Technology Capabilities

The United States' federal government should substantially increase its non-military exploration and/or development of the Earth's oceans. There are many benefits to doing so: reducing overfishing, limiting ocean acidification, conducting disease research, restricting invasive species and decreasing ocean dumping. Other affirmatives could deal with changes in Arctic shipping routes or opportunities for oil and natural gas exploration, according to ihsa.org. Oceans holding 99% of all living life on Earth and 97% of our water hints at, we have to take care of our home.

If you spent your formative years within the American public education system, you likely have a vague memory of learning about The United States census. For me, I thought of the census as a mere headcount which took place every ten years but was of little significance, particularly in a lesson filled with far more dynamic topics like civil disobedience or President William Howard Taft getting stuck in a bathtub.

In a 2015 report, only 13.8% of U.S. citizens reported knowing more than one language. In contrast, 74.5% of Israelites are bilingual, while 10.4% of Spain is multilingual. That means Spain's population of people who can speak three languages is only 3.4% lower than the total amount of people who know more than one language in the U.S. (likely most of those respondents are bilingual).As a nation who is so involved with other countries, it is ironic to say the least, that the U.S. has such a low amount of people who know more than one language.

From Field To Fork, To Eating Locally And Seasonally

When you walk through the produce section at the grocery store you are guaranteed a colorful array of fruits and veggies. The origin of product ranges from hundreds of miles away to thousands of miles across oceans and continents. Our current food system relies on importing and exporting around the globe. This system allows us to put food on our tables that are locally out of season. Carbon dioxide emissions from transporting these goods heavily pollute the environment. I blame the astronomically high demand for an unnecessary variety of food options to play a large role in anthropocentric climate change.

As A Muslim American, My Trip To Jerusalem Revealed That Open-Mindedness Bridges Communities

Mohammed

On Dec. 21, my parents and I flew to Amman, a city in the beautiful country of Jordan, where we took a cab to the main part of Jerusalem. We were told by multiple family friends that it is not the safest to directly fly into Jerusalem because of the religious issues and riots going on. As we entered Jerusalem, I put my hijab on. A hijab is a head covering worn to cover a women's beauty in Islam. As I put my hijab on to pay respect to Mosque Aqsa, I noticed a change in perspective from everyone around me because suddenly, there were eyes from everywhere on me — Muslim and Jewish.
