STYLE GURU BIO: Olivia Hood

May 27th, 2015 at 2:00am

Hello fellow Fashionistas/os! My name is Olivia, and I just finished up my sophomore year at Arizona State University where I am studying Sales and Marketing and Media Analysis. I have been hugely interested in fashion for as long as I can remember, and I hope to even pursue a career in the field after I graduate. I am so excited to be a Style Guru this summer at ASU and share my favorite outfits and trends with you all!

First a little about me: when I am not spending my day at the mall or with friends, you can find me updating my personal blog where I write lifestyle and fashion articles. My passion for writing has been consistent throughout my life, and I have always known that I somehow wanted to be involved in fashion as well. My favorite aspect of fashion is learning about the idea and inspiration behind each and every outfit. I love seeing people around campus wearing some extremely unique pieces and outfits because I am persistent in looking for inspiration, which is why I am so excited to be a Style Guru for the summer. As far as my personal style, it is constantly changing! I am always finding new trends that I love. I usually aim to find specific pieces that can be versatile and used in different ways to create different outfits that reflect who I am.

This spring one of my favorite trends is fringe: I love the how it can subtly add texture to any outfit. This dress from Topshop can be very casual or dressed up, and it is one of my favorite pieces in my closet. I love that there is a number of ways that it can be worn, and it being so comfortable is definitely a plus. I also love chunky shoes for the summer. Finally, to complete any look, I love layering gold jewelry that can be worn over and over with any ensemble. Alex and Ani bangles are perfect for adding personality to any outfit and for any occasion. I am so excited to be beginning my summer as a Style Guru!
