About Claudia:
I just can't get over the way that 18-year-old college freshman Claudia pulls together her basic pieces with such flair! Her jeans and button-down look totally fresh and modern thanks to her funky choice of accessories. And you've gotta love that asymmetrical haircut and mega-watt smile!
Age:
18
Hometown:
Birmingham, Alabama
What She's Wearing:
Bullhead jeans from Pacific Sunwear, boots by Shï from Journeys, and top from the store Parisian.
How She Describes Her Style:
When asked to explain how she dresses, Claudia said: "My style is relatively casual, but I like to wear things that are comfortable and cute."
Fave Places to Shop:
When it comes to finding new pieces, Claudia says: "I love to shop at Forever 21 and Charlotte Russe because they have such a large variety of cute clothes, especially for going out." She also adds: "I like stores like Urban Outfitters and Caché because they have really stylish shirts and dresses."
Style Icons:
Clearly, Claudia doesn't need to copy other people to find her own unique way of dressing, so when I questioned her about her style influences she said: "I don’t have any style icons. I usually just put things together on my own, and try new things that I think might look cute."
How to Get Her Style:
Since she has such great individual style, I couldn't help ask Claudia for her fashion advice. She says: "Try not to copy what your friends or magazines tell you to wear, and always try to make an outfit your own with some sort of special touch." Sounds great to me!
