Finals week is hitting everyone hard, but this Fashionista doesn’t let the hours of studying compromise her sense of style. The gloomy days and misty skies reflect a more neutral and dark color scheme, but the patterned black and white top creates an edge that defines Haley’s style. The cross pattern is right on trend for the upcoming winter months and is noticeable even under your heavy winter coat — or in Haley's case under her impossibly cool leather-detailed military jacket.

Haley Hansen: Gwen Stefani.
CF: What is your favorite thing about winter fashion?
HH: My favorite thing about winter fashion is the headwear. i love getting to wear my beanies and ear-warmer headbands!
CF: How would you describe your style?
HH: I'd say my style is a little edgier; I am really into darker colors right now and prints with things like skulls and crosses but I still like to incorporate feminine details like bows or polka dots.
CF: What is your go-to outfit for cold, rainy days?
HH: My go to outfit would be black jeans, leather boots and my favorite orange rain jacket.
How To: First, you must find an edgy shirt in a cross pattern! Urban Outfitters and Brandy Melville are great places to look that have an edgy hipster vide that Haley possesses. Layer leggings under the blouse and your favorite slouchy leather boots. Wear a military inspired jacket with unique detailing, like Haley’s leather sleeve jacket. Finish the look with a black knit beanie to keep warm and continue the dark color outfit that mirrors the dark winter days ahead.
