Skidmore Style Watch: Get the Look!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Skidmore chapter.

This Week’s Style
 

Elizabeth Johnstone, 2013

 
“The blazer I got from my sister’s closet, but it’s originally from Urban Outfitters, the skirt I got from my old roommate, and I think its BCG, and the tank top is from Forever21! The boots are from DSW.”
 

How would you describe your personal style?
Right now, I’m into outfits of dresses, tights, boots, and blazers. I like the feminine, business casual look.
 
What do you think about Skidmore’s style on campus?
Some of it I like, like the laid back colorful looks and the more structured and preppy styles. I think most girls try to dress nicely every day to look put together, and I like that! 
 
What is one staple piece in your wardrobe?
A feminine blazer or a short black cotton dress. 
 
Favorite place to shop?
Francesca’s.
