My New Ethical Fashion Obsession

If you haven't heard of Pura Vida Bracelets, now you have.

My New Ethical Fashion Obsession
Pura Vida Bracelets Instagram

I was scrolling through Instagram when I stumbled upon a picture of a wave ring. I found one of these in a store a few years ago, but I talked myself out of buying it. Instantly regretting that decision, I have been searching for a wave ring for awhile now. I found the perfect sized one featured on an Instagram account called Pura Vida Bracelets.

I did some major scavenging on their website and fell in love with every thing I saw just on the homepage. Not only do they sell bracelets, but also clothing, bathing suits, anklets, rings, clutches, and necklaces. Most bracelets are only $5, and there is always a sale going on so you can purchase a lot for super cheap.

What really draws me to Pura Vida Bracelets is their story, which you can read here. They are partnered with over 190 charities and have donated over $935,358. All bracelets are handcrafted by artisans in Costa Rica, which have now given individuals who were once living in poverty full time jobs.

I personally have purchased quite a few bracelets and the gold and silver wave rings myself, and not pictured is a boho clutch that I store all of my make up in.

Pura Vida Bracelets are very active on social media, especially Instagram. I encourage you to give them a follow. Their photographs are very aesthetically pleasing, and their website has the option to "shop our insta." You can get inspiration from their photos and see which bracelets work well together. Not only will you be looking trendy, but also aiding a wonderful cause.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
