Hello Fashionistas/os! My name is Alessia Beck. I am new to the CollegeFashionista world and ready to rock it! I know what it is like to have a refined taste in clothing but not have the funds due to my collegiate status as most! I enjoy researching and studying high couture and fashion domestically and abroad. I am attending the University of Florida as a sophomore and my major is Advertising. It would be the dream to travel the world and work with high fashion commercials and print ads. This would allow me to be exposed to different cultures’ fashion and further refine my fashion knowledge. Fashion manifests emotion art and culture. Crafting different clothing combinations similar to Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City that are loud, trendy and colorful is what I look forward to in my spare time! Originally from Miami, Florida I am aware of many fashion trends due to the fact that my home city is one of the biggest “melting pots” in the United States oozing with trends. I will be reporting on the lasted fashion trends in Gainesville, Florida especially on the University of Florida campus. Featuring many trendy students showing us how to “werk” it. I love window-shopping at Saks Fifth Avenue as well as gaining inspiration from the covers of Vogue and recreating outfits for less than half the costs. I will share my thrifty, stylish ways in my posts, mimicking high couture brands (our little secret). Style is very exciting to write and report on due to its instability: trends change in days, years, decades and generations. Individuals have the freedom to change their trend or manner of dress to express how they feel and their liberation. Take a peak at my future posts and see if you approve.
