So excited to officially introduce our Philanthropy Chair, Kendall Baumbick!! Kendall wanted to share a little bit about her experience with you all: “I’m so grateful to be running RRC’s new philanthropy initiative with our amazing committee. It has been great preparing different ways for our club to give back to our community. We are so excited for our upcoming philanthropy project that supports sustainable fashion and our environment. We can’t wait to share it with you!”🌼

The it-girl of this year’s Coachella Music Festival Lana Del Rey arrived on the back of a motorcycle dressed from head to toe in Dolce & Gabbana. 🍒 Her opening look was a micro pleated jersey dress embellished entirely in Swarovski crystals and she finished her show in a second custom midi dress, also covered in gems. What did you think of these looks and her set? 💎🎀

So excited for our first SENIOR SPOTLIGHT with Alexa Lower!! Here’s a message from Alexa who we will miss dearly: “I attribute so much of my professional development and success to Ross Retail Club. I had joined my freshman year virtually amidst the pandemic, and was able to gain leadership experience by joining e-board and eventually was President from 2022-2023. RRC has provided me with so many amazing opportunities and introduced me to some really cool retail/fashion professionals and most importantly a community of likeminded people and lifelong friends. I’m eternally grateful for everything RRC has done for me and am so excited to see the growth of the club! 🫶🏻”
