Hello Fashionistas/os! I’m so excited to be returning for my second semester as a Style Guru. I attend the beautiful Elon University, in Elon, North Carolina where I am just beginning my senior year. After graduation, I plan on pursuing a career in Public Relations or Marketing with a focus on fashion. Until then, I’ll be showcasing the stylish Fashionistas/os at Elon!
Elon is a school that is known for having a student body that is preppy and put together. Sometimes, this look can get a little boring, and I hope to scout out some Fashionistas/os who break the mold.
There are many ways to describe my personal style, but it totally differs based on how I feel when I wake up in the morning. I would describe this look as “casual, yet polished.” For this look, I took a major fashion risk (for me anyways—I’m sure other people have no problem with this) by mixing prints. I paired a drapey tank with a pair of printed jersey pants from Old Navy. I finished off the look with a chunky statement necklace and studded sunglasses.
This look is a great outfit for the beginning of the semester. The outfit is put together, but it also is really comfortable (perfect for sitting through long lectures). I thought that this outfit showcases my style because I like to be comfortable, but I don’t like looking sloppy.
I’m really excited to write about how Fashionistas/os translate high fashion into something more wearable around campus. When I was writing for CollegeFashionista this summer, I wrote a lot about dressing for events in the summer and internships, so I’m really excited to write more about what a Fashionista/o would wear on campus.
