STYLE GURU BIO: Lora Bishop

Hey Fashionistas and Fashionistos! This is my first semester with CollegeFashionista which means this is my first STYLE GURU BIO! I’m looking forward to my spring semester as an intern and can’t wait to see what all my fellow Style Gurus come up with for their articles.

My name is Lora Bishop and I am a sophomore at the University of South Florida in the sunny and beautiful Tampa, Florida. I have a major in psychology and minors in economics and leadership. While my career goals aren’t necessarily fashion orientated, I love clothes and creative writing. When at school I love to go explore all of the different coffee shops in the Tampa Bay area, go to the beach, or spend the day pretending I’m a wizard at Universal Studios in Orlando (I’m an annual pass holder). I’m so excited to share the looks of different Fashionistas and Fashionistos from my campus to you all.

My personal style is very casual and I tend to keep it trendy. For example, in my outfit I’m wearing a button-front faux-suede skirt with a black shirt with embroidery. However, I keep my outfit more casual and laid back by pairing in with a pair of black slip-on Vans and a tote bag from American Apparel. To add a final touch to my look, I put on a gold double horn necklace, though most days I completely forget to accessorize with my busy schedule. Normally I wouldn’t wear tights with this look when I’m at school in Florida, but I’m currently at home in Minnesota for winter break, so the tights were a must.

My goal for this next semester is to explore more with my personal style and try new trends that I may not normally think are for me. I’m hoping to gain some inspiration while I’m walking around campus looking for Fashionistas and Fashionistos to shoot for my articles. Let’s make this semester #RAD!
