STYLE GURU BIO: Lizzy Grap

January 7th, 2015 at 2:00am

Hi Fashionista/os! My name is Lizzy, and I’m a sophomore at New York University studying Journalism and Imaging. I am super excited to be starting my third semester here with CollegeFashionista!

I spend most of my days consumed by fashion (quite literally). I have an absolute obsession with clothes, makeup and jewelry; I can hear my mom from 200 miles away telling me I need to stop buying so many shoes. Sorry mom, I can’t help it.

I am originally from Baltimore, so since moving to New York I’ve had to update my wardrobe continuously to deal with changing seasons (its absolutely freezing right now) so lately I’ve been trying to keep warm. During my freshman year, I went through an absolute obsession with black; my entire wardrobe was exclusively black. Im still loving black, but i’ve been enjoying experimenting with sport inspired looks . I love throwing on my adidas joggers with a pair of heels and heading on my way. I think its a fantastic way to spice up a comfy look for class or everyday errands when paired with a classic pair of sunglasses. I’m incredibly inspired by designers like Alexander Wang and Jil Sander.

It’s good to switch up your look every once and a while. The best thing about fashion is that it is never permanent and you can change your style as often as you’d like. I tend to take advantage of this thinking a lot and change the way I dress quite often which you can see through my previous bios. Fashion is an amazing way to continuously reinvent yourself again and again and again. This semester, I’m going to explore different styles and trends. I hope most of my articles with follow this kind of experimental and fun theme.

I am ecstatic to continue my internship this spring and continue exploring the world around me in new ways! Keep your eyes peeled every Wednesday for more from me—I can’t wait to see where this semester takes me.
