The One Where You Relate To Rachel Green

It is my last semester at LIM, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a little overwhelmed with my schedule. I’m balancing my work, my internship, and schoolwork, which is stressful and rewarding. I am sure whether you’re a freshman, sophomore, or junior, you’re experiencing something similar.

So I’ve decided to have a little fun with one of our favorite fashionistas of the 90’s: Rachel Green. She climbed the ladder from waitress to Ralph Lauren executive, but it wasn’t easy. Here are 10 relatable
quotes to experiences we’ve had in the fashion industry, along with a photoshoot inspired by Ms. Green’s workwear.
