Let’s Talk Fashion

Who or what inspires your style? “I’m definitely inspired by street fashion along with a lot of high fashion brands like Versace and Chanel. Some people that truly inspire [me are] the fashion icon Naomi Campbell along with Gianni Versace and the late Karl Lagerfeld.”

Where do you like to shop? “I love stores that provide fashionable, yet affordable clothes like ASOS, Urban Outfitters, H&M, Forever 21, and online [resale] stores like Poshmark.”

How would you describe your sense of style? “I’d say my style is comfortable, yet chic. When I get dressed, I like to look the best I can because I use clothes as a defense mechanism as well as a confidence booster. But of course, comfort is my most important interest.”

Why did you choose this particular outfit? “I chose this outfit today because it embodies glamour and fashion which are two things I love, but also it’s not too flashy to wear to class.”

What fashion advice would you give to other students looking to improve their style? “Don’t be scared to be different and unique! Making your own style makes you more confident and brings a lot of different attention. Don’t be afraid to go shopping; no matter your size, height, looks or personality — live it up!”

What are your favorite trends right now? “My favorite trends right now would have to be… [the] tighter the clothes the better, or anything that glistens in the sun. Oh! And course how ’90s fashion is coming back.”

Do you have any favorite fashion designers? “I will forever always be in love with icons like Gianni Versace, Karl Lagerfeld, and Alexander McQueen. However, more recently, I am really into Donna Karen, Julien MacDonald, and Valentino.”

Elements of Caleb’s Outfit

1. Print Button-Up

Caleb wears a button-up shirt in black and white newspaper print with an Hermes belt buckle.

Caleb’s soft button-up shirt from Forever 21 features newspaper print and it has proven to be quite the conversation piece! Caleb carefully arranged his ensemble, ensuring that the rest of his clothing doesn’t take away from his statement top.

2. Tiny Sunglasses

My jaw dropped to the floor when Caleb told me his sunglasses were from Target. I love how they frame his face, taking his entire look to the next level. Caleb’s attire is a perfect example of how statement accessories can really bring out the personality in an outfit. Which, for him, is the purpose of every epic streetwear look.

  1. Love the outfit and his confidence! But I think some of the questions and answers got mixed up.
    The favorite designers question corresponding answer is about trends and the actual answer for that question is incorrectly paired with a question about hobbies, which as far as I can see, wasn’t actually answered at all.
