By Megan QuistWhen the alarm clock goes off at 7:00am it is never easy to jump out of bed knowing you need this crucial time to stop you from throwing on some leggings and a baggy T. Roaming around campus on a Monday afternoon, it was evident that many students hit the snooze button this morning. But a select few caught my eye. From across the sidewalk I spotted a girl strutting down in dark brown wedges, a black sheer dress, and a tan accent sweater. Her hair was also done in a half up, half down ponytail. The sun was starting to shine mid-afternoon, making the ensemble without a jacket appropriate. What stood out to me the most was the fact that she had her backpack, but also her Chanel purse with her as an added accessory. All of the neutrals together were simple yet sophisticated, and can be found at almost any retailer! What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “What draws me to this style is that no one else will have the chance to ever have the exact same ensemble. Finding unique or DIY pieces brings a sense of creativity and empowerment to my looks. Maybe even add in an old sweater you have not worn in awhile.” Men, come on now. Jeans and a button up isn’t all you can wear to be considered “dressed up.” A tailored and timeless male spotted my eye. Black skinny jeans, a tan fitted jacket, Adidas, a billowing scarf with fringe, and a European hair cut with a set of sunglasses, stopped me for a second. I thought to myself, wow he looks more put together than I do today! Adidas are huge right now, and his vintage ones put together the outfit perfectly. To Get This Look:
Shoes: adidas x neighborhood Jeans: Natural Selection T-Shirt: NSF Shirt: Creep by Hiroshi Awai Jacket: Club Monaco Scarf: Altea Glasses: OAK Bracelet: Giles & Brother Bag: Jack Spade Is there ever a fashion trend you’ve been dying to try, but you know that it would be too out of your comfort zone to pull it off? Stay fabulous on campus, and maybe you too can be featured in the next week!
