Trend Alert: SixItemsOrLess
No one can argue that Kenyon students don't have a very distinct sense of style. But some of them are trading cold hard fashion for compassionate anti-consumerism by taking the SixItemsOrLess challenge. The gist is simple. Participants choose six (and only six) items of clothing and vow to wear only these six items of clothing for an entire month. (Underwear doesn't count, thank goodness.) Think it's impossible? Kenyon junior Lily Barret doesn't. Read about her experience at http://sixitemsorless.com/author/sparkle98/.
