I definitely predicted correctly – this winter has turned out to be an incredibly fashionable term. I have seen some well dressed folks in the hallway these past couple of weeks.
This week, we focus on two of the hottest fashion trends for the winter 2010 season and one timeless piece: leather, chunky knits and argyle. Pop quiz, which one is the timeless piece and which ones are the trendy ones?
Leather – Yousif
Yousif pulls off the style of the leather jacket beautifully with this look. This trend is wonderful for the chilly winter season. Yousif isn’t the only one rocking the leather style; as I look around campus, I see so many engineering students wearing these lovely trendy jackets. In fact, I see more engineering students in these jackets than all other faculties combined; therefore, engineering students must be the most fashionable students on campus, right?
Chunky Knits – Kim
Kim looks awesome in this sophisticated look completed by a chunky knit top. Knits are the perfect winter wardrobe staple. As modelled by Kim, knits can be worn with nice pants to make for a more professional and polished look; however, they can also easily be paired with jeans to create a refined yet warm and comfortable look.
Argyle – Matt Schokking
Matt wears a classic argyle sweater in this timeless genteel look. Argyle works with dress pants for interviews or more casual bottoms for that ever-so- hot “nerdy” look. I must admit I have always been partial to the look of an argyle sweater or sweater vest. I really should buy more argyle…
Whether you follow the fashion trends from the runways or create your own style, I’d love to see it! Swing by Novelties from 11:30am – 12:20pm on Tuesday or Wednesday and show me that engineering does have style to be featured in the next “Fashion Files” article.
Stay Classy,
