STYLE GURU BIO: Emily Mayo

May 28th, 2015 at 2:00am

Hey everyone, I am super excited to be a Style Guru for CollegeFashionista this summer! I am about to be a junior at the University of South Carolina where I am majoring in Public Relations and minoring in Fashion Merchandising.

I have always loved fashion and doing creative things, so I really enjoy putting together outfits to show my creativity. I am always the go-to fashion advice girl amongst my friends and hear “I’m just going to let you pick out my outfit” on a regular basis. I am excited to be a Style Guru and share my passion with everyone. I can’t wait to give my style advice and talk about the trends that I love this summer.

I am lucky enough to get to travel quite often and it is one of my favorite things to do so I am excited to share that with you all as well. Nothing is better than diving into a different culture and taking a few cool pictures along the way. Let’s just say thank god for Instagram.

My personal style is more on the classic end of the spectrum (shout-out to my main man Ralph Lauren). I like timeless looks that will never go out of style, but I really enjoy mixing it up a little bit depending on my mood. That is the best thing about fashion; it’s never permanent.

I am a firm believer in investment pieces like a watch or handbag that you know you will love and use forever. Then, balancing that out with spending less on more trendy items that you’ll only wear for one season.

One of my favorite compliments is, “Wow your outfit is perfect, I would have never thought to put those things together.” And hearing things like that inspires me to share my style advice so everyone can feel a little better about themselves when they walk out the door in a perfect outfit.

Check out my posts every Thursday to get a little glimpse of what fashionable things I’ve got going on!
