STYLE GURU BIO: Adrianna Freeman

Hello Fashionistas, Adrianna here. I am so excited to have the opportunity to join CollegeFashionista as a Style Guru this spring semester.

For those wondering about me I am studying fashion merchandising at Meredith College with minors in both business administration and communications. I enjoy living a healthy and fit lifestyle and going to the gym at least five times a week. I would most definitely say that I have an edgy and wild style, but my active lifestyle is often reflected when wearing athleisure on the day-to-day. A quote I always enjoy having in mind is “keep your squats low and your standards high.” From an early age my obsession with fashion and modeling began. I was always putting on mini fashion shows for my family and friends, acting as both the designer and the model, funny right? I am a firm believer in strong coffee, the perfect contour, and eyebrows always on fleek.

If you are trying to figure out my individual style, then you are in for a whirlwind because my personal style is everywhere and constantly changing. There is no other way to describe my style other than “my style is me;” it’s who I am. What I am sure that you can always spot me in is one of my many chokers. One can never have too many chokers, am I right? One thing that I have noticed is vintage always finding its way into my outfits, which I have grown to truly appreciate. Whenever I am in need of some wardrobe inspiration my go-to girls are Kylie Jenner and Gigi Hadid due to their unique and edgy styles. I have always been drawn to the fashion industry because it is always subject to change. One minute we are rocking our Doc Marten kicks from the ’90s, and the next we are wearing bell bottoms from the ’70s. It’s a beautiful thing. I am in love with the idea of self-expression being represented through the clothes that we choose to wear.

If you are looking to accomplish or re-create this chic, party look pictured above, then I am here to help you do so with style. Like I said earlier, one can never have too many chokers. This thick, tan choker is perfect when paired with a fur coat similar in color. One of the biggest key elements to this outfit is the black thigh-high suede boots. These boots help to elongate the leg and help tie together the outfit as a whole. These boots are very versatile and are also great when paired with jeans. Chokers and suede boots are most definitely a staple in my wardrobe this season. Let’s start 2017 strong and with style my Fashionistas!
