STYLE GURU BIO: Cristina Espinosa

Hello lovely people! My name is Cristina Espinosa and I am currently a junior at Monmouth University. I am studying communication with a concentration in public relations and journalism. This is going to be my third semester as a Style Guru and I couldnโ€™t be happier. As the semesters have gone on, I love being part of the #GuruGang more and more! Being a Style Guru has helped me realize how much I actually love fashion and beauty. I think fashion is such a fun way to express yourself, especially since it changes daily with your mood.

Last semester I was fortunate enough to study abroad in London. It was the best experience of my life and I honestly just wish I could just go back right now. Even though returning to school in America is really bittersweet, I am really glad I was able to see the people that live in London. Not only did my semester abroad give me the traveling bug, it has given me a new passion for style. I have been introduced to many different brands that I hadnโ€™t heard of before. Iโ€™ve seen so many different types of people with so many different styles. I feel like my style has evolved from my time abroad.

My outfit here is heavily influenced by London street style. I am wearing my black and white shearling aviator coat. This has to be my favorite coat Iโ€™ve ever owned because it is just so perfect for winter. It is so soft and so warm, itโ€™s like wearing the fluffiest blanket you could find. I paired it with a simple black shirt underneath the jacket and some skinny jeans. My sneakers are also a favorite of mine because of the style and the light tan color with a touch of pink. I cannot get enough of the sneaker trend. Any time I get to wear sneakers I am happy.

My personal style is normally pretty casual, but I think itโ€™s starting to evolve. Being a Style Guru has opened my eyes up to an even broader spectrum of possibilities for how far fashion can go. I truly appreciate all that CollegeFashionista has shown me and I canโ€™t wait for another semester of great fashion!
