      Using Oak Street as their runway, OU students flocked to Oak Fest Friday, May 13th dressed in their best spring fashion.
      With the sun finally shining on Athens, girls can finally break out their favorite spring skirts and dresses.  “For Palmer Fest a lot of girls were wearing jerseys. But today is so nice that everybody seems to be out in dresses and skirts,” OU student Molly Wilson. 

These two stepped it up! 

        As for what OU’s strapping men were wearing Freshman Brendan Thomas, who was dressed to impress in a button down, said, “I can sum it up in one word, throwbacks.” It seems while the girls are dressing in their best for Oak Fest the guys were keeping it more relaxed in tees, and polo’s.
       While Oak Fest is one of the smallest of OU’s fest, it didn’t stop students from coming dressed to have fun and enjoy the sun. 

Rebekah Meiser is a senior studying Magazine Journalism at Ohio University, with a split specialization in Italian and Art History. Like many Italians, she is obnoxiously proud of her heritage and fully embraces it by consuming embarrassing amounts of pasta, bread and cheese. She currently owes a scary amount of money to the government, but continues to masochistically check Net-a-Porter and Urban Outfitters online for beautiful items that she lusts but cannot afford. Rebekah goes to school in the middle of some of the best cornfields in Ohio. Although she finds the location less than ideal, she has become an avid star-gazer thanks to the unpolluted sky. A true lover of fashion, her friends make fun of her for playing dress up as often as she does, but she’s not one to be discouraged. Rebekah also loves to run (read: alternate between jogging and walking), read fashion blogs, bake, and read magazines (of which she owns a forest-worth). She hopes to live and work in New York City after she graduates in the spring.
