    The Third Piece Rule: Decoded

    October 25, 2018

    Happy fall, y’all! As temperatures start to drop (or have already for you cooler-weather gals), it’s a great time to take a long, hard look at your wardrobe. I don’t know about you, but I used to constantly find myself gazing wistfully at my closet, wishing I had that one perfect whatever that would just pull everything together. Truthfully, sometimes I still do. But everything changed once I started working for Madewell a few years back. Right off the bat, associates are encouraged to dress by the “Third-Piece Rule,” a simple equation for styling outfits that are just a bit more elevated. Basically, your top and bottoms are pieces one…

    How to Reorganize Your Closet to Feel Like You Have Your Life Together

    October 1, 2018

    There’s nothing like the first day of school to make you feel like your life is a mess! If orientation didn’t quite orient you or you’re preparing to show up to every section of art you possibly can because you need it to graduate, the hot mess of first week comes for us all. There’s so much you can’t control about school starting, but this weekend I have faith you can control your closet. Be Marie Kondo The first step is to launch a Marie Kondo-sized attack on your closet. Warn your roommates and your loved ones: things are going to get worse before they get better. Start taking pieces…

    How Working at Madewell Changed Her Perspective on Becoming a Therapist

    June 18, 2018

    When you balance a part-time job during the school year, every summer you have to make a decision as to whether you want to keep working there. This decision is even harder when your part-time job isn’t related to your career, especially when you love your job. Jillian Jackson shares how she found her perfect job at Madewell, why she keeps coming back every summer, and the best style secret she’s learned from the last two years! Name: Jillian Jackson Job Title: Sales Associate at Madewell Location: Jacksonville, FL College: Vanderbilt University Year: Rising Senior Major: Psychology What are you doing this summer?

    Introducing Xoro Media

    June 11, 2018

    In December 2016, I was just a girl going to college 3000 miles from home, and struggling to find enough time in a day to do my homework, go to class, exercise, eat, and see friends. A little (some might say too) obsessed with personal organization systems and in need of a creative outlet, I started my blog Xoxo, Rosana, writing posts once a week in the dining hall. Things have changed: every other post is written by one of the amazing women in my life, and our podcast Get This Girl a Job just finished it’s first season. Now at the end of my third year of college, I…

    Table for One: A Guide to Brunching Alone

    This week’s installment of Ro&Co features Samira’s guide to making the most of that sacred weekend morning meal: Brunch!   So you’ve finally worked up the courage to do it alone. Brunch, that is. The one thing where you just HAVE to go with friends and catch up on all the wild (or tame) things you’ve done over the weekend, the one meal it’s actually socially acceptable to be incredibly loud and obnoxious. Switch gears for a second, though. Remember, this is something you decided to do alone this time. You made a reservation on OpenTable, and booked a table for one. Or your friend cancelled on you 12 hours…

I’m currently studying abroad in Paris, and I’m having a great time; I’ve had at least 100 pains au chocolat, a ton of picnics with wine and cheese, and have been hanging out with friends 24/7. It’s been so relaxing and so much fun, but it’s been tough to stay healthy. So, with my *seasoned* experienced, I thought I’d…

    Thrift Shopping 101

    March 22, 2018

    Welcome back to another installation of Ro&Co! This week, Jessie is back and sharing her tips for thrifting to help you prepare your spring wardrobe! Why Thrift? There are a number of reasons why I love thrift shopping. It’s good for the environment to recycle. Stores carry not just what’s in trend but what used to be—an fashion goes in cycles so it’ll probably be in again. I find unique things I wasn’t looking for. It’s a cheaper way to expand my wardrobe. And, it means I’m not dependent on flash fashion for cheap basics. You Don’t have a Size: Let go of that number/letter which tells you which pants/tops…

Check out how @rosanarabines plans for the future on #xoromedia “I work for a platform that supports creators like the ones that have inspired me for the last decade and gives a voice to people just like me who are sharing their passions with the world. Even as an intern, I’m in a position where I can use my perspective as a creator to advocate for them.” • Xoro Media founder @rosanarabines shares her experience working for YouTube in the final post of #xorointernshipdiaries “I did not realize how competitive art-related internships at museums and galleries would be – I was up against graduate students and people with advanced degrees for many of the positions I applied for.” • Rafaela Brosnan shares her experience working for an architecture firm in Chicago on #xorointernshipdiaries “I am fortunate that I figured out during the winter of my sophomore year that my heart was not in finance and I preferred a field that implements more of what I was studying, behavioral economics. Match truly upholds their value of “do what you love” in allowing me to parlay the subjects I love to learn, like behavioral economics, into a profession.” • Katherine Clement shares how she followed her passion to work at Match Group on #xorointernshipdiaries “I know I want to continue studying different healthcare systems, health care policies, role of socioeconomic status and race of patients, availability of resources, access to translational science, etc. both in the US and abroad.” • Meredith Wells shares her experience doing a Portuguese medical interpreting training in Brazil on #xorointernshipdiaries “With the legal field, it sort of seems like you aren’t ‘allowed’ to take a job in any real firm until you’re in law school, because almost every application wants law students... but I ended up doing essentially the same exact job as them, and I feel really immersed and like I had an amazing experience before I even got to law school. Apply for that clerkship!” • Stephanie Dorris shares how she’s using her job as a Law Clerk to decide between becoming a lawyer or a professor on #xorointernshipdiaries “At the end of the day, everyone is trying to get one thing or another to work out , and it doesn’t really matter when you do it because every industry has its own timeline really, but also every job has its own timeline. Don’t sweat it; the stress is so not worth it.” • Samira Shabsogh shares how she broke down the boundaries of her major to find a job that better fit her interests on #xorointernshipdiaries
