STYLE GURU BIO: Jaimie Peyton

Hey Fashionistas/os! My name is Jaimie Peyton, and this is my first semester as a Style Guru for CollegeFashionista! I am a junior majoring in journalism with a specialization in public relations, and I’m minoring in fashion merchandising at California State University-Long Beach.

I started to love fashion a few years ago when I get compliments mostly on my winter outfit ideas. For me, fashion is not all about trendiness. You don’t necessarily have to own or wear newest or hottest pieces of fashion items to be considered fashionable. In my opinion, fashion is more about defining your style and expressing your feelings. As long as you’re comfortable and confident about what you’re wearing, you’re a Fashionista/o.

My style is more casual and comfy. I don’t really follow trends. I mix and match pieces of clothing that I think would perfectly work out, and I am confident in what I am wearing. As long as you feel confident about your outfit, you will feel more comfortable and happy about yourself. In this outfit, I paired a light gray pair of leggings with a blue crop top. To make a statement for this simple outfit, I put on a black choker with dark bronze lace and silver leaf details. I also mixed and match silver accessories such as my silver watch from Marc by Marc Jacobs and a silver bracelet. Since I love a simple outfit, I don’t go big on accessories. Finally, I wore my favorite black heels to complete the look.

Thank you for taking your time checking out my bio. I am really looking forward to this amazing semester!
