Brits <3 Juicy

This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

Right now, I have tons of friends studying abroad in London, England, so I’m constantly getting tagged in their pictures as random odd things they encounter in the city. (Like this truck with my last night name…)

But the coolest picture I got tagged in was one of a Juicy Couture track suit that is displayed in the fashion section of the Victoria and Albert Museum!

After doing some research, I discovered that the famous Couture Tracksuit was brought into the museum for the first time in 2001 to demonstrate a new era of global fashion. Juicy designers, Gela Nash-Taylor and Pamela Skaist-Levy brought comfort to the runway when they replaced sloppy sweats with sexy athletic. Madonna soon fell in love with the style and is credited as the first celebrity to showcase the tracksuit.

Since then, many stars have been seen sporting the glam, comfortable look:

Eva Longoria

Jennifer Lopez

Paris Hilton

Kim Kardashian

Tori Spelling’s entire bridal party

My name is Maura Murphy and I am a junior at Boston University with a working major in advertising. I am a sister in Delta Gamma and, more recently, one of the three new Juicy sisters! I love Juicy Couture because the brand is fashionable but unique, which fits my personality perfectly. I like to fit in, but I also like to stand out and Juicy apparel helps me to look my finest at all times while doing just that. My interests include traveling, shopping and cooking. I am an avid Boston Celtics fan and played basketball for 11 years. I am outgoing, adventurous and passionate. I adore getting dressed up and hitting the town, but also love the nights in with my roommates, spent watching Friends in our pajamas. Gale Sayers once said, “I learned that if you want to make it bad enough, no matter how bad it is, you can make it." I use this quote to focus on the goals I have in life and how to achieve them. I believe that despite any obstacle life throws at you, passion and determination can drive you to the top, so long as you are willing to work for success. That’s all I have for now, but if you’d ever like to know more – just ask! Ciao, Maura
