Hello! My name is Kristina and this is my second semester writing for CollegeFashionista. I’m currently studying merchandising, apparel and textiles at the University of Kentucky. I just finished my first semester as a college student and as a Style Guru, both of which I enjoyed. These two new experiences have allowed me to meet and network with many neat people, as well as explore the styles and trends seen on different college campuses.
My favorite part of this internship thus far has definitely been the writing aspect of it. Although I enjoy taking photographs of my Fashionistas, I have more fun explaining why their individual styles caught my attention and advising other Fashionistas on how they can achieve a similar look.
My style is very versatile depending on my mood and the time of year. I’m very active and I can usually be found dressing sporty, but at the same time I know when I need to swap my beloved Nikes for a pair of warm boots. Even though we’re considered a southern state, winters in Kentucky are miserable around this time of year. Luckily for those of us who like to layer up, the cold weather gives us a reason to do so. My go-to winter outfit usually consists of a tank, a sweater and a winter jacket layered together. Sometimes I choose to incorporate a scarf or my favorite pair of boots to finish my look off.
In addition to returning as a Style Guru next semester, I’m traveling to New York City and Paris within the course of two months. I can’t wait to learn more about the different aspects of the fashion industry by visiting two of the most well-known fashion capitals. Here’s to another semester as a Style Guru and new adventures traveling the world!
