Looks on Campus: Kylie – Lasalle College of the Arts
Kylie is no doubt one of the most fashionable girls I know. We met in high school, and I’ve been in love with her fashion sense ever since. Now, thanks to College Fashion, I finally have a legitimate reason to ask her about the secrets of her style!
Kylie kindly provided me with some photos of her daily outfits via e-mail, and I think they’re a great source of outfit inspiration, especially as the weather gets warmer. This girl rocks the floral trend a lot, which is perfect for spring. Plus, Kylie is a student from Singapore, so for those of you who want a taste of student style from across the globe (or may be studying abroad there soon), pay extra attention! :D
(PS – If you know a stylish girl we should feature here, including yourself, please email outfit photos and info to zephyr AT collegefashion DOT net!)

Let’s Talk Fashion
Who/What inspires you in terms of fashion? “When I was younger I loved looking at high fashion magazines but now I am inspired more by street fashion and fashion inspired by music. I like the look of ordinary people who may not even own that many clothes but always put their own spin on things.”
Who is your fashion idol? “I don’t have one, it could be any girl on the street who not only has trendy clothes but really has her own style.”
Where do you like to shop? “A lot of my clothes are H&M or Topshop. There are also a lot of individual clothing shops available here [in Singapore]. I wouldn’t mind a thrift/vintage store or two though, but there are basically no good ones here!”
Any fashion tips? Or Fashion Do’s and Don’ts? “Be comfortable, there’s no point looking lovely for a night out if your feet are in too much pain for you to dance with your friends.”

Get Inspired
I don’t know about you, but I love how Kylie incorporates florals into her outfits. The key to making florals work is to have only one floral focus in the outfit, so it won’t look too “garden” and “flowery.” Kylie demonstrates three ways to wear floral prints above, and here are the three inspired outfits I put together.
1. Top/Dress
What can I say? This outfit screams spring! I paired the dress with a beige cardigan for a very relaxing look, which would be perfect for a romantic picnic! Also, the fedora is not only cute and trendy but also practical under the sun. If you think this look is too holiday-like, then consider Kylie’s look above – I love how she still looks cool and put-together while rocking flower patterns.
Product Information: Fedora- Arden B, Floral Dress- Wet Seal, Sandals- Monsoon, Cardigan- Must Haves
2. Bottom
The floral pattern is subtle in this outfit, so it would be perfect for someone with an edgier sense of style. On the other hand, Kylie’s look above is more daring, if that’s more your taste. In addition, I’ve found that high-waist floral skirts look very flattering on most girls, and can be purchased at many stores like H&M or Forever 21, so it’s an easy look to try for yourself.
Product Information: Top- Top Shop, Skirt- Forever 21, Flats- Amiclubwear, Bracelet- Zappos
3. Accessories
If you are really not a flower person, try floral accessories for just a taste of the trend! The headband below will definitely attract attention, and I love how the colors look in this outfit.
Product Information: Headband- My Diva’s Closet, Top- Arden B, Boots- Piperlime, Jeans- Net-a-Porter, Bangle- TopShop

I hope you enjoyed reading this post! What do you think of Kylie’s “fashion theory” and outfits? And which type of floral look would you go for? Leave your thoughts in a comment.

Annie
Love her style. Love the sandals in the first inspired outfit too, I want them!
Celine
Ohmygosh! Sharon, I didn’t know you wrote for CollegeFashion (i check this site everyday)! :)
Was super excited to see Kylie here as well, and yes I have to agree, this girl has amazing style! Although was a little disappointed she didn’t have many dress looks as she had a few dresses back in school that were SUUUPER cute but overall really good article!
Also, yes, favorite Looks on Campus article (but of course, I’m biased). Loving the first outfit you put together by the way!
Stephanie
I didn’t even know Wet Seal sold those types of dresses! I always thought Wet Seal only sold going out clothes!. Kylie’s style is really cute — it reminds me a lot of what the “trendy” girls in Singapore wear (being a Singaporean myself).

xoooxoxox
Renn
The outfits were spot-on! I loved all of them, makes me wish I had more florals in my wardrobe. Glad to see Fedoras are still somewhat popular.
Jojo
Love this look!
Her mini is fantastic! It’s totally something I would rock!
You can definitely tell that she’s not afraid to stand out, and she does so in a good way!
Vivi
Wow these outfits are sooo pretty!! And I love her style!! Good job :D
When you guys do the links to the clothes, can you make it so that it links to the actual shirt instead of the homepage of the website? It makes it easier to find that specific shirt.
Alexandra
SOOO adorable! Love it! These are looks that inspire. Also, I love the black t-straps in the middle outfit. I have been looking for the perfect pair for AGES and have yet to find them.
Lynn
Really cute outfits! I like that you had more than one look, as well.
sahar

Love her style.. i lived in Singapore for quite a while and as a caucasian girl I do have to admit that Singapore Females have all a pretty good feeling for styling.
