Silk is a brand that provides vegans, vegetarians and health-conscious consumers dairy-free milk and yogurt alternatives. The company developed the "Do Plants" campaign to introduce products made from plant protein. Athlete Venus Williams and music artist DJ Khaled were both featured in a commercial promoting the healthy lifestyle that consuming plant proteins supports.

Williams is pictured on the tennis court before she says, "Strong is good," and drinks Silk's Very Vanilla Soymilk. Khaled is pictured drinking a banana smoothie made with Silk Almond Milk and says, "I do plants." Williams and Khaled are supporting a healthier and environment-friendly lifestyle.

Silk's Do Plants campaign is active on Twitter with #DoPlants to promote their plant protein products. Many Silk consumers are turning to Twitter to share their enjoyment of the plant-based products, and they also praise Silk for being considerate of the the natural world and its inhabitants.


Silk understands that many consumers are choosing healthier lifestyles that demands nutritious food, and people are becoming more conscious of their impact on the environment. People also are becoming more aware of what they consume and the amount of waste they produce. Plant proteins benefit both the consumer and the environment because they produce less waste by lowering meat consumption and also leaves the consumer feeling healthy. Silk's new vegan soy milk is a perfect product for people who want to better not only themselves, but also the environment.


Drinking soy milk instead of cow milk benefits your body and the environment. Soy milk provides the human body with vitamins B and E, protein and fiber. It also has less sugar and fat than cow milk. Soy milk is also cholesterol free and can help lower cholesterol. Consuming plant-based proteins instead of meat-based proteins can lower the amount of pollution from farm factories that raise livestock. Plant-based proteins can reduce the amount of pollution produced by farm factories. Additionally, livestock needs to be housed and fed, which requires money to be taken from the farmer's profits.

People should begin to consider replacing cow milk with soy milk products because dairy-free milk is a healthy milk substitute, it is environmentally friendly, and Silk offers several flavors of soy milk. An easy way to help save the environment while also practicing a healthy lifestyle is to drink soy milk and consume plant-based proteins. #DoPlants

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
