Describe your style in one sentence: I would say comfortable, sustainable and put together.

Fashion inspiration: A combination of of 60s mod-like Twiggy, 70s bohemian and the 90s. I draw inspiration from a lot of different eras and people.

Favorite recent purchase: My favorite recent purchase is this new kimono that is cream and has these beautiful magenta flowers and tassels, it’s my baby at the moment.

Favorite place to shop: Thrift stores, like Buffalo and Goodwill is probably where I get a lot of my clothes now. My favorite overall store is House of Vintage in Portland. I use to thrift more for fun, and now it’s on a college student budget. If I want to have a large array of clothing, it is kind of a necessity.

Trends you love and hate: A trend I love that is very prominent in Oregon, but also everywhere is Docs. Docs will always be a trend because they are classic, but I’m all for the Doc game. I don’t know if this is still a trend, but the whole short in the front and long in the back thing- I’m not really a fan of that.

If you could splurge on anything, what would it be?: Shoes and coats. I’m a sucker for big 20s and 60s faux fur coats and costume jewelry too, so I think anything like that.

Go-to look: Mom jeans, Dr. Martens, striped shirt and a cardigan.

Has living in Eugene influenced your style?: Definitely. I’m from California, so I’m use to wearing sundresses whenever I want, so I think way more about the weather and comfortability. It’s so difficult when it’s pouring rain to be comfortable and cute, but I’ve definitely adapted my style to living here.

Define Eugene’s style: I think it’s so eclectic, there are so many different types of people that live here. You could say there are specific styles, but every person I see is dressed differently and I think that’s really cool. Eugene’s style is eclectic, it’s different, you don’t often see the same thing.
