Fashion Trends At Fordham University

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?

Giphy

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

Giphy

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 AttireĀ 

Giphy

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 BossĀ 

Giphy

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

Giphy

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

Giphy

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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast ā€œBirthdayā€ on anyoneā€™s birthday. I knew all of the words to ā€œBack In The U.S.S.Rā€ by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. Iā€™m not someone to ā€œfangirlā€ but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

19 Lessons I'll Never Forget from Growing Up In a Small Town

There have been many lessons learned.

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.
