FASHIONISTA SPOTLIGHT: Cariña León

It's a rare occurance to witness such put together style on campus, but Cariña León is a flawless exception. This Fashionista can not only be seen cruising campus in the latest trends, but pulling them off effortlessly. Her style is a mix of class and comfort as she fashionably ties together her personal style with the distinct college-casual look seen all over the Eastern Washington University Campus. She rocks a classic look to kick off the second week of school with this trendy black out look with skinny jeans from PacSun paired with a fabulous lace top from Apricot Lane. To break up this color blocked look, the Fashionista adds a few key nuetral pieces such as her leather jacket and a skinny white belt. This helps to accentuate her figure by giving her a defined waistline as well as a fall look with a light jacket for the unexpected fall weather changes when scurrying between classes. To add some flare to her outfit, Cariña sports a pair of bright red flats by Madden Girl by Steve Madden, that are not only school spirited but an attention grabber as she makes her way across campus. To top off this knock out outfit, this EWU Fashionista carries a color coordinated gold accented bag and gorgeous vintage full-finger gold ring she discovered at an out of town boutique. Hint to all the fashion crazed girls out there: name brand stores aren't the only place to find amazing stuff, search your local boutiques for barried treasures from vintage jackets, shoes to jewelry.

CF: Does being on campus alter your personal style at all?
