Ms. Vintage

UCSD's Best Dressed
Discovered by: Bridgett, TREND Staff Writer

Name: Justine
Major: Human Biology
College: Warren
Year: 3rd
Spotted at: Warren Plaza

Outfit:
Smart Glasses: Dior
Poppy Yellow Big Button Jacket: A thrift store in San Fransisco called "Crossroads" (there's one in SD too)
Elegantly Embellished Dress: Charlotte Russe
Scholarly Book Bag: An outlet in Oregon
Sheer Flats : Urban Outfitters
Eco Friendly Bag: purchased right here at UCSD

Q: Where does your fashion inspiration derive from?
A: Well, I have to say I love vintage. I read fashion blogs and I notice there is a different aesthetic in the regular use of clothing. Reading them helps me decide what to look for in a thrift store. Right now, I am looking for "springy things".
Oh! And I am really into looking to Steve Allen for inspiration.

Justine did fabulous job of keeping things cheery and effervescent. I love the fact that upon observing her outfit, I can't readily decide if she looks ready for school or ready to run in the flowers! The yellow is just so honeycomb yellow that it's practically spring in a jacket! Her dress is black, a typically less frivolous color, but the embellishments on it make it super sweet and super cute. The bag and the glasses are so studious and seem serious when taken away from the rest of the outfit. However, both the bag and glasses make the outfit solid with their academic feel.

My Outfit.

Good Morning!


FINALLY doing another outfit post. I'm sorry that these outfit posts aren't more consistent... my photographer (aka my boyfriend) doesn't always have the time, but I promise to make more of an effort.


This outfit was one I wore out for dinner. I absolutely LOVE structured, silk shirts. I think they're an easy way to dress up a pair of jeans. 


Let me know what you all think...

Oops my shirt is a little creased!

I love mixing in vintage finds! Makes an outfit more exciting.


I'm wearing:


Shirt - GAP
Jeans - Earnest Sewn
Shoes - Forever21
Clutch -  Forever 21
Necklaces - Vintage (both of them)
Ring - Forever21
Nail polish - Sally Hansen Insta-Dry in Silver Sweep


Have a great Tuesday!

UCSD's Best Dressed: Orange County Edition
Discovered by: Bria, TREND Staff Writer
Happy Wednesday everyone!

My name is Bria and I am a recent addition to TREND's staff. I will be doing the Wednesday Best Dressed this quarter! I can't wait to share with you the best of the best!

Hopefully your winter break was fabulous and fashion-filled! Seeing as everyone (including myself) was home for the holidays for the past few weeks, I decided to do an Orange County edition of best dressed. Our neighbors to the north have almost as many fashionistas as we have down here! One lady that fits in perfectly with the best-dressed crowd in San Diego is 20 year old, Tatiana. Her blend of classic style with modern twists is oh-so-chic, and her neutral color pallet is perfect for this cold winter weather.

Black skinny jeans: Paige Premium Denim

Grey cardigan: Forever 21

Flowy white tank: Forever 21

Knee-high socks: H&M

Combat boots: Vintage, but you can find similar ones here

Cognac-colored satchel: Urban Outfitters

• Name: Tatiana

• Spotted at: The Irvine Spectrum

• Occupation?: Full-time student at Orange Coast College

• Tell me about your style: I love basics, a great sweater or pair of jeans, but then make them my own with accessories. I love funky accessories.

• So who is your biggest style icon? Rachel Bilson. Hands down. I love her.

• Any other inspirations? Well, my sister owns a vintage store in New York, so i get a lot of pieces from her. You can find tons of classic pieces but also really unique and interesting ones.*

X's and O's,

B.

UCSD's Best Dressed
Discovered by: Bridgett, TREND Staff Writer
Name: Marina
College: Revelle
Major: Microbiology
Year: Senior
Spotted Near : RIMAC

Outfit:
Feather Earrings: Random Vendor
Comfortable Colorful Sweater: "It used to be my grandmothers"
The Essential Black Shirt: Forever 21
Black Tights: H&M
Brown Boots: Steve Madden
Silver Watch: "Las Vegas!"

Q: What is your general type of style? How would you describe it?
A: "A comfy, relaxed style. A style that doesn't require too much work, but still looks good. I would say I like to keep it fresh!

Marina does an excellent job of esablishing her own unique style that's relaxed while still, "keeping it fresh". Especially as finals are looming overhead, we all could care less about what we wear we just hope we can get to class on time with assignments successfully in hand! Through the simple act of putting on matching earrings Marina effortlessly dressed up her look. Instead of a plain o' sweatshirt, she chose a colorful piece to cheer the gloom of the skies that hovers above us. Additionally, what is more comforting than having an article of clothing your very dear grandmother wore!

Rock Around the Clock

Ok ok ok, so this is 69 smackaroos. That's two weeks of food for us college students, but hey, let's just admire this god of a watch. Imagine yourself wearing it going out on the town wearing a twofer dress with a pair of boots and a pair of Ray Bans. This is the ultimate retro revival accessory. It's a watch, that is in the shape. of. a. turntable. I know what I want for my birthday.

-Susan Hayward

After working as a New York fashion model in the 1930's, Susan went to Hollywood to audition for the character "Scarlett" in Gone With the Wind. Although she did not receive the part, Miss Hayward did not give up. Susan would later then go on to play leading roles in movies throughout the 1950's and 60's.
Happy Birthday to a both tenacious and lovely leading lady!
