With the gloomy atmosphere winter weather brings  to campus, style is the last thing most students worry about. While hustling and bustling from class to class, sweatshirts, sweatpants and comfortable athletic footwear are the norm. According to Nigel Moncure, senior kinesiology major, normal is boring, and he prefers to stand out. 

 

Q: What are you wearing? 

A: My beanie is from Trukfit, the plain black T-shirt is from ASOS, the plaid button down shirt is by Pac Sun and my sneakers are Converse, All Star edition. 

 Q: What inspired this outfit? 

A: Honestly? 

Q: Yeah, honestly. 

A: What inspired this outfit was the fact that it was washed. 

Q: That’s great. How would you describe your style? 

A: If Pharrell had a love child with a sale rack. 

Q: Hmm. Interesting. What is your style must have? 

A: I must have socks. They’re essential. 

Q: What’s your favorite trend at the moment?

A: That’s a tough one. I don’t really know honestly. Maybe color blocking. And black. The color black can work with anything. Like all black, like American Horror Story: The Coven kind of black is my favorite trend. 

Q: What’s your least favorite trend? 

A: Turtle necks? 

Q: What do you have against turtlenecks?

A: What do you mean? They’re weird. They’re not cool. You’d catch me popping my shirt collar, which is kinda lame as well, before you catch me in a turtleneck.  

Q: Well, what about if your neck is cold? 

A: Scarves — long, wool scarves. 

Q: Good point. What do you believe a person’s style should say? 

A: Your style should reflect your personality and show confidence. And it should literally fit you. Nothing worse than ill-fitting clothes. 

Q: Here’s my last question, who’s your style icon? 

A: I have my top three. Pharrell. David Beckham and lastly, Solange. That pretty much sums me up.
