How would you describe your style?
I would say that my style is pretty eclectic, and tends to change depending on my mood. I love clothes and trying different combinations of pieces, but I’m not a huge accessories person.
How do you plan on incorporating your style into your work wear?
My office is business casual, so there is more flexibility than some jobs. When I was interning there over the summer, my favorite thing to do was incorporate one really fun element to every outfit, like a colored pant or a patterned belt. It still looked professional, but wasn’t quite so basic.
How would you describe style on campus?
I would say that style on campus is really diverse. Even my roommates and I have very different styles. It’s funny because we have some of the same pieces, but we wear them in such different ways. I think that’s true for campus as well. I see outfits every day that inspire me to try something new!
How do you plan to stay stylish and comfortable for exam week?
I definitely pick cozy library clothes for studying and sometimes even take a blanket, but I like to dress up to sit for exams. I usually wear some of my favorite outfits on exam days. I have always heard that if you are confident, then you perform better!
