Europe has a certain beauty that can’t be found anywhere else. Just one step off of the airplane and I was ready for nine days of pure bliss. The first stop in my Europe adventure was the City of Love, Paris. That is certainly what happened, I fell in love with the city. Everything from the streets to the main attractions. ...
Planning a girls’ weekend in the Big Apple with my friends felt like a dream. Bright lights, busy streets, Broadway, fashion icons, and skyscrapers for miles. I’ve been obsessed with the idea of New York for as long as I can remember, and I never pass up a chance to visit. Whoever said stepping into adulthood is horrible, clearly forgot the part about finally being able to check into a hotel by themselves. We spent...
Pic from Margo & Me With the end of summer approaching, many of us students are preparing to start another semester at Kent State. Some may be looking forward to getting back on the beautiful campus at Kent; however, others may have a different, exciting adventure in store from abroad!

We are back our fellow Fashionistas and Fashionistos with a brand new series about our summer adventures called The Adventures of a Fashionista (or Fashionisto). I will be starting this series with my recent trip to the City of Angeles. I just got back from my Los Angeles Study Away Tour exploring the fashion industry on the West Coast.
