STYLE GURU BIO: Tess Cvikota

Hi Fashionistas and Fashionistos! My name is Tess, and I am thrilled to be a returning for my second summer as a Style Guru for CollegeFashionista. I am currently majoring in public relations and advertising with a concentration in marketing at DePaul University! I will be a senior this fall, and I can’t quite wrap my head my head around it.

If you ever see me on a day where I have class, expect me to be in Nikes and most likely something lululemon. My absolute favorite trend this spring has been athleisure. I love how effortless and chill sporty-looks are. My current style inspiration comes from constantly looking at street style photos from off-duty models.

The street style in the city feeds my inspiration for my outfits as well. Being in the city you truly learn how to master the art of comfort-chic! I love dressing up sneakers with neutrals and incorporating activewear with edgier pieces like this bomber jacket. On my busiest days this is what I most likely will be wearing. My style keeps evolving, but I will always gravitate towards bohemian looks, especially in the summer months.

I am thrilled to be scouting out trends on campus this summer. Trendy Chicagoans have mastered the art of looking stylish, while being prepared to take on the summer heat.

I’m excited to share the #RAD college street style that the city of Chicago has to offer. Join me on CollegeFashionista to stay up to date this summer with some trendy articles. I am also a part of the Social Media Society here at CF, so be sure to follow me around on Instagram!
