STYLE GURU BIO: Brooke Thompson

May 25th, 2015 at 2:10am

My name is Brooke Thompson. I was born in Maryville, Illinois but now I live in Nebraska. Currently, I am a third year student at Nebraska Wesleyan University studying Business and Human Resources. Before I came to college, I attended the Chicago Art Institute in pursuit of a furniture design career. However, my dreams have changed and I would love to have my own clothing store online!

I’m the oldest child in my family with a younger brother and sister. My mom, Joy, is my best friend and I love spending time with her along with the rest of my family. We also have a dog named Oscar; he’s a Pekingese and the love of my life. I love watching television shows on Netflix, painting and shopping.

Ever since I could dress myself, I was wearing stylish and crazy outfits. I love doing other’s makeup and hair, and discovering new techniques and styles. My favorite stores are Forever 21, Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie. Right now my favorite piece is a kimono and my favorite patterns are stripes and floral together!

The outfit I’m wearing is boho-chic, perfect for a night out. However, this outfit is versatile, and wearing a plain shirt instead of a bandeau, could turn this outfit into more casual dinner clothing. Im wearing tapered harem pants from Urban Outfitters, wedges from Charlotte Russe, and a cardigan front from Target.
