Katy Danforth and Deven Ropes for the Trashin’ Fashion Show!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Portland chapter.

Our first ever Style Blog post comes to you courtesy of the College Ecology Club’s Trashin Fashion show that occurred this last Friday!

Model Katy Danforth donned an awesomely trendy while simultaneously green dress that friend Deven Ropes designed out of recyclable items. Deven took Second Place for her brilliant design!

So get out there girls, and make UP proud – fashionably recycle! 

Hailing from eastern Washington, Julia attends the University of Portland in Oregon, as a Communication Studies major with an emphasis on Journalism. As a magazine and book junkie, Julia reads everything (and anything) she can get her hands on, especially those passionate on young adult culture and entertainment. A woman that gets stir-crazy easily, Julia has been fortunate to have traveled many summers in a row to foreign countries, including a study abroad course in Austria, Germany, and Great Britain. Since a ripe age, she has grown and cultivated her passion and dream of working for a magazine and spreading awareness as well as happiness through the tips of her fingers. Always finding time for herself, Julia can frequently be found quoting movie lines (most frequently Will Ferrell or Vince Vaughn), having a 90's dance party with her roommates, or rereading "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" for the 40th time.
