This transfer student’s jacket and head wrap stood out from across the dining hall; a pop of color and vintage-flair in a sea of college t-shirts and blue jeans. Ebony, a sophomore at Rutgers University, studies Public Health, a very interesting field! She confided that her love for fashion is huge and describes her style as vintage and Afro-centric, that sometimes mirrors the saying “rags to riches.” But in fashion, that is a very current style and fits right in with her contrastingly-long fringe earrings and hipster square frames. I enjoyed speaking to her and am very thankful that she interrupted her lunch for me.
