What is your most worn accessory and/or article of clothing?
Black Nike Roshes, black turtleneck tops, and pretty much anything black.
Where do you like to shop?
Anywhere where I see something I like, but a lot of Zara and sometimes H&M for basics.
Where do you get your fashion inspiration?
People I see on the street and window shopping! I don’t actually follow fashion blogs or read fashion magazines; I like the idea of retaining my style and letting it develop organically. Also, I don’t really have a distinct style. I’d say it’s always changing.
How has your style changed since coming to Columbia/Barnard?
I think I’ve come to value minimalism, texture/quality, and shape more. Not that I didn’t care about these things before, but I’m definitely pickier and am reluctant to purchase something unless it really stands out to me. And to be honest, I’ve gotten a little lazier at times, so it’s always great when I find cool and comfy clothes.
