My name is Maya Rochefort, and I am a senior at the University of Delaware double majoring in apparel design and fashion merchandising with a double minor in business administration and entrepreneurial studies. I loved writing for CollegeFashionista so much, I am returning for the summer!
I see fashion as a tool of expression. It is a way for people to express themselves and define who they are. To me, fashion is the thrill of taking an idea that starts in my head and evolving it into something that other people can appreciate. My outfit pictured above is a simple romper with a sun hat and cute wedges. However, it is inspired by the ocean where I spend most of my free time.
One of my other passions is traveling. I have traveled to Hong Kong, France, Spain and many other places around the world. Each place I have visited had their own distinct trends and ways of dressing. I find that people-watching (with sunglasses on of course!) is the best way to pull fashion inspiration while abroad!
I do not like to define myself as preppy or boho or any other specific style because I am influenced by all of them and like to pull pieces from each aesthetic to create my own look. I look forward to posting again on CollegeFashionista and hope you like my posts!
