This article is part of a weekly segment with College Fashionista, an online guide to the latest in college fashion. Article by Cate Young.
What caught my eye about this Fashionista was her beautiful blazer and the red tint in her hair. College is a defining time in any Fashionista’s fashion evolution, and seeing a freshman with such a good grasp on her personal style assured me that the fashion legacy of BU will continue long after I go back home!
Name: Allison Macika
Year: Freshman
Major: English
CollegeFashionista: What’s your favourite part of this outfit?
Allison Macika: I’d say this green dress that I found. I tried to find a green one to wear for the St. Patrick’s Day parade.
CF: Describe your personal style in 3 words.
AM: Comfortable, economic, simple.
CF: Where do you do most of your shopping?
AM: Generally at Forever21, Target and H&M. I like the bargain shopping.
CF: What’s your next fashion must have?
AM: Definitely a white maxi dress for the summer! They are definitely on my radar.
How To: Allison definitely has the right idea with putting a maxi dress on her must-have list. If you want to follow suit, try this gorgeous design from the new Bird by Juicy Couture collection or opt for something a little less expensive with this Dorothy Perkins maxi. Even though summer seems ages away, it’ll be time for flip flops and shorts before you know it.
