September 29th, 2016 at 2:10am

The collegiate “Greek” life does not just pertain to sororities and fraternities, but also style of dress! A trend that has often stood the test of time since the Hellenistic days is the gladiator girl look. The gladiator girl persona is all about blending delicate details with more standout pieces. The Fashionista who decides to rock this trend knows that she can take on even the most overwhelming day with a killer outfit! What better way to conquer that heavy course load than dressing like a Greek goddess? You know what they say: you have to dress the best to be the best!

This mythological look revolves around one key piece: gladiator sandals. For the most historical authenticity, go for a brown leather pair that almost goes up to your knees. These shoes even have a slight heel that elongates the legs. If you would prefer to avoid going to a class in a toga like the original Grecians, you can easily modernize your outfit with a flowy dress. This Fashionista is wearing a baby blue chiffon number with a deep V-neck and peek-a-boo sleeves. It’s the perfect hybrid between seventies and ancient flare! As far as jewelry goes, this Fashionista let her clothes take center stage by opting to not wear any. Besides, a greek goddess’ best accessory is her long, wavy hair!
