Hey everyone, my name is Emily and I am a Pittsburgh girl attending school in the south at Virginia Tech. I am a sophomore business major with a minor in business leadership and am looking into minor in fashion merchandising. I am also a member of the Collegiate Women in Business Club and am on their events committee. In addition to school, I love to teach dance classes, hang out with my friends, and go to Hokie football games.
I am a super girly-girl, and I love anything pink or sparkly. I never thought I would wear the colors maroon and orange together before I went to Tech, because like Elle Woods said in Legally Blonde, “Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed.” But I have fallen completely in love with everything about the school, from the school colors, to the Hokie stone buildings, to the big family atmosphere. I am so excited to be attending what I think is the greatest school in the world and cannot wait to see where it takes me.
I have always had an eye for fashion and style, and being in the middle of three sisters, it was not easy at times to create new ways to wear my sisters’ old hand-me-downs. My style is mainly very feminine and classic, but I like to add in statement pieces to add a little something extra to it.
For this outfit, I am wearing something that I walk around the city and grab coffee with friends in. I picked a white top with floral embroidery, and to make it a little more edgy, paired it with ripped jeans and a faux fur vest. I also am wearing my favorite pair of brown boots that lace up the back and big white geometric earrings. I really love to accessorize, so I added a gold bracelet with pink crystals and my go-to Kate Spade everyday purse. This is a classic look that shows you exactly what my sense of style really looks like. I am very excited for the rest of the semester and to show you guys what everyone is wearing here in Blacksburg.
