STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Cycle Savvy

Getting from point A to point B on campus can be a challenge sometimes (I should know. I’m dangerously uncoordinated; I fell down some stairs on my first day of class). If you’re not into sketchy bus rides or trying to turn a thirty minute walk to class into a ten minute jog because you’re late, humans invented this cool thing called a bike. And with that college campuses have given birth to the “cyclenista”; a trendsetter gliding from point A to point B effortlessly with stylish whimsy. They’re comfortable, punctual and chic.

Kent’s campus is filled with Fashionistas. No matter where you walk, it’s not hard to spot people who sport one-of-a-kind looks. Kent’s campus is also filled with hills. I totally admire the Fashionistas getting from class to class in heels and tight jeans on a hot day. You do you, girl. But in college, comfort should definitely play a role in how one dresses. This Fashionista shows us how it’s done with a delicate ensemble to coast around campus in. She pairs a sheer, floral blouse with feminine, lace trimmed high-waisted shorts for a literally cool outfit to wear on her relaxing ride. She adds a sunhat for chic shade and simple black booties. The finishing touch is a bold blue wristlet to carry her bare necessities in. Her look is bright and eye-catching, making her a fashionable flash as she flies through Kent.

For this Fashionista, it is possible to have the best of both worlds. Cute and comfy can coexist seamlessly.
