Marshelle Stern, a Journalism major going into her third year here at UMaine, is definitely feeling the normcore fashion moment. Normcore focuses on unisex, unassuming clothing. It’s a relaxed, laid-back counter to louder styles currently trending. Marshelle finds inspiration for her fashion wherever she goes. “When I travel I like to observe the trends in cities, they’re always just one step ahead.”
Jacket: Her jacket, perfect for transitioning into spring, was from GAP a few years ago.
Cardigan: It’s Laura Ashley that was “thrifted by my mother, actually,” says Marshelle. The camel color is easily matched with other pieces.
Jeans: The high (but not too high) waisted jeans are another GAP find.
Belt: Dooney & Bourke. The label’s playful duck logo adds a bit of fun to the outfit.
Boots: Black Bandolino boots are a refreshing change from the bean boots that overrun campus in the winter.
Backpack: Pendleton. Doesn’t that print make you excited for summer?
Marshelle’s laid-back outfit is effortlessly cool with little details that really bring it all together. It’s a look I imagine you’d see in the city.
Looking great, Marshelle!
