STYLE GURU BIO: Christina Daugherty

January 5th, 2017 at 2:00am

Hi everyone, I’m Christina Daugherty!  I’m currently enrolled as a student at the University of Kentucky where I am majoring in merchandising, apparel, and textiles, and minoring in business.

Ever since I was old enough for my parents to buy me a cell phone, I spent my days reading fashion blogs and spent my nights watching makeup tutorials on YouTube. If we’re being honest, that is what I spend my time doing now when I have any free time that magically appears.

As for my fashion taste, I’m not one to conform to a certain style. If I like it, I will try it. Notice, I said “try” because I’m certainly not a fashion goddess and cannot pull off everything. Being as small as I am has made it challenging to be able to wear all the exciting items that I wish to, but I’ve gotten pretty good at “making it work”—if I say so myself. If you were to look in my closet, you would notice that it’s all random. I can go from “pretty in pink” to “black like my soul” in 0.2 seconds.

I would consider myself blessed that I get to live in a state that receives all four seasons to the max. Good ol’ Kentucky even gives you the four seasons all in one day! No matter what, I thoroughly enjoy every season and get excited every time the season changes. Going shopping because “It’s now winter and I need to adjust my wardrobe” is one of my favorite excuses.

Moving on to my outfit I wore today, I paired a mini denim skirt with a warm cozy sweater. I love wintertime simply because you can throw on a sweater in minutes but create the illusion that you really contemplated your outfit. I added my leather jacket for some extra warmth and my knee-high boots because they are my favorite shoes sitting in my closet at the moment. For my accessories, I wore a wrap-around choker that I tied in a bow and some classic pearl earrings (because honestly, you can never go wrong with pearls).
