Sustainability encompasses our goals and mission as an organization. What better way to promote our motto and efforts than through a donation clothing drive? We want to help students get sustainably rid of their clothes and rehome their once-loved pieces to others who would appreciate them! With the school year winding down and students clearing their closets to head back home, this event was the perfect opportunity for CDR.
Last year, I was positioned to make the CDR Clothing Drive go from imagination to reality. Not only was it a success, but it brought the community of ..read more

I think the key to happiness starts with being grateful for where we are. Although we may not be exactly where we want to be, it is important to still live in the moment and be grateful for every phase of life we go through. It is easy to lose sight of how great life can be if we are constantly thinking negatively. So, I would like to share my favorite ways to practice gratitude and the benefits of them. I hope this is a reminder to appreciate even the small things that life has to offer us.

In my junior year of high school, I made what is quite possibly the greatest purchase of my life thus far. I am well aware of how dramatic this sounds; what could a 17-year-old possibly buy that is so spectacular? The answer: a black denim jacket.
I couldn’t tell you what made me decide to buy this jacket. Before this, I think the last time I’d owned a denim jacket was probably in preschool. Moreover, at the time, this jacket hardly fit with my personal style. I hardly knew what my personal style even was. So, I really can’t pinpoint what it was that made me whip out my deb ..read more

Every year after Thanksgiving I ask myself what I want to accomplish in the next year. This year, I really wanted to prioritize self-care and doing things that made me happy. Every year prior, I could never stick to it due to my mental health and busy schedule. Well, it’s not easy, so let me break down my goals and how I’ve been reaching them this year.
Diet and Exercise:
Your diet and how much you exercise have a huge impact on your brain. Eating healthy has such a huge expectation, that before was extremely overwhelming. I’ve narrowed it down to this: eat as yo ..read more

Ballet core has been a trending aesthetic for a long time at this point, and there have been many dancers sharing what they actually wear to their ballet classes. As a dance major at SRU, I wanted to ask some other dance majors what they’re really wearing to their day-to-day dance classes. On the day that these pictures were taken, all the dancers shown had ballet class at 9 am and improvisational dance at either 11 am or 1 pm. Some had evening rehearsals, as well. Pale pinks and ribbons are typically associated with the ballet core aesthetic. This isn’t common i ..read more

Being 5’2, I continue to struggle to find THE jeans. Those jeans that make girls look so effortless, yet so stylish. With so many sizes, brands and styles, it’s hard to go through the whole process without getting frustrated. Most recently, I have found a love for jeans that are loose around the hips, tight in the thighs and loose around the ankles. I was able to break down my favorite pairs of jeans and list them below:

Do you like to spice up your outfits with jewelry? Me and you both. Personally, I think adding some necklaces, bracelets or rings to an outfit can really push it to the next level! Lately, I have been in a rut with my accessories, and I don’t want to spend a fortune on new jewelry. So, I decided to make my own.
You should be able to get supplies at any kind of craft store. I got mine at Michaels. I decided to make a charm bracelet, but you could also decide to make a necklace or even an anklet. Michaels has a variety of different chains you can pick from ranging in differ ..read more
