Maybe it’s college, or individualistic appeal, but it’s actually pretty hard to find someone dressed in floral prints during the spring. Ironically, people wore more floral prints and pastels during cooler months. It seems everyone decided to go against the grain and release their inner rebellious 90s-grunge adolescent. Luckily, one sunny afternoon, Carmen Lofton, a freshman communication major, revitalized the traditional spring fashion that is missed so much and renewed my faith in the fate of fashion. 

Q: What inspired your outfit? 

A: I woke up and saw the sun and I felt like wearing something that said spring. I love floral prints. 

Q: What are you wearing? 

A: I got the dress from Target, which is one of my favorite places to shop. My shoes are from Revolution, the consignment shop. 

Q: Who would you say is your fashion icon? 

A: I really love the way Kerry Washington dresses. It’s simple and chic. I especially love the clothes she wears on “Scandal.” 

Q: How would you describe your style? 

A: I’d say versatile and unique. I like to mix and match a lot. 

Q: What’s your favorite trend?

A: I love blazers. 

Q: What’s your least favorite trend? 

A:  I’m over the whole high-low dress thing and I’m so done with those referee stripes on everything. 

Q: What do you think someone’s style should say about him or her as a person?

A: Style should tell people who you are and what you’re here to accomplish. What you have on your back lets people know what your intentions are.
