STYLE GURU BIO: Alanna Deeble

Hey friends!

My name is Alanna Deeble. I am a sophomore and a Fashion Merchandising Major at Kent State University. I grew up in a super small town in Ohio and went to high school with a graduating class of only fifty people! Fashion is not something that is very important where I come from, so it’s really cool and kind of surprising to see that I am writing for a fashion blog right now. I would have never imagined myself in fashion while growing up, but now I cannot see myself doing anything else. Fashion allows me to express myself through my style and really show who I am.

I do not have one set style, I really just dabble in every style depending on my mood and the day, but my go to style are definitely the vintage and classic looks. My style icon is definitely 1990s Jennifer Aniston. I love her play on sporty, chic looks. She is known for wearing a ton of denim and plaid, which are two of my favorite fashion pieces. For all of my Friends fanatics, I aspire to dress (and be) like Rachel Green.

In this article, I am wearing a thrifted black, velvet slip dress. Since it is winter and pretty chilly, I paired it with a Ralph Lauren turtleneck. For a more relaxed and sporty feel, I grabbed my metallic Chucks and kept my toes warm with a pair of sparkly cabin socks. I finished up this look with dainty, gold bracelets and Pandora rings.
