I have been loving finding these looks on my campus and I’m sad to see the time end this semester. It was fun and many are true Fashionistas. When it comes to what colors will be on the cutting edge, the combination of black and white is proves that it is in high demand and not going anywhere. This Fashionista nailed the use of these crisp colors in a classic way. It’s so simple and feminine and fun for spring weather. It’s amazing when you can make a minimalistic look stand out.

CollegeFashionista: What are you wearing today?
RD: I’m wearing high-waisted black shorts and a sleeveless white blouse with a leather bow tie. I am very casual and simple today, though I spiced it up with my black heels and a red cross body bag for some color.
CF: How would you describe your style?
RD: I’d describe my style as sophisticated and classic.
CF: What is an essential piece of clothing in your closet?
RD: My most recent obsession has been different statement accessories; they complete any outfit and take it to a whole other level. I would also die without black boots.
CF: Where do you love to shop?
RD: I usually shop pretty much everywhere and love online shopping as well. That is where you can find really good deals.
CF: Where do you get your fashion inspiration?
RD: Fashion is about you. At least, that’s what I believe. While there may be ever-changing trends as seen on the runways and certain celebrities, in the end, everyones’ fashion senses are just reflections of themselves. So while I keep my eyes open for what people are wearing around me and what looks good, I’d say my inspiration comes from myself.
CF: Do you have any favorite designers/brands?
RD: I don’t have a particular favorite because I love finding quality pieces that fit my style and body. There are so many designers, and I discover new designers all the time.
How To: You can mirror this look easily. It takes no time at all. All you need is black and white. It can be black top with white pants, or a white top with black pants or shorts. Have fun with the shoes you select and bring out your unique style and don’t be afraid to do so.
