Circle Up

When typical winter days in Oregon don't consist of rain, they are shockingly cold. And of course the best way to brave the chill is to bundle up with coats, hats, gloves and of course, scarves. The most recent scarf trend has been the infinity scarf due to its comfort and 'wearability' (no more challenging scarf tie-ups). 

Both Alyssa and Elisabeth (above) show two great ways to sport the trend. But these scarves go beyond adding texture and color, they can also add pattern to a monochromatic outfit. Here are a couple great patterned versions:
- Aztec (Asos)
- Striped (J. Crew)
- Polka dots (Charlotte Russe)

Lace-ups vs. studs

Allison (left), Phebe (center) and Amy (right) show that boots can be worn in a variety of ways. Allison pairs her lace-up booties with black leggings and winter accessories. Phebe makes a statement with her boots as part of her black ensemble. Lastly, UK native Amy contrasts her studded boots with a brightly dotted sweater.

Welcome!

While Eugene is known for its rainy season - read: all year - the fashions seen on the University of Oregon campus go beyond your typical Hunter boots and North Face rain jackets. This blog aims to show that not only do UO students wear more than rain boots, they keep up with all of the latest trends.
