CollegeFashionista: Where do you draw your fashion inspiration from?
Brooke Berget: Blake Lively is my style icon. She has her own style and doesn’t always follow trends, which is what I try to do with my own personal style. I appreciate how her style is very unique and classic at the same time. I read Vogue, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar for inspiration.
