Introductions - Shoe



1. Name, blah blah relevant information

Shoe. Senior. English major, econ minor. Currently in the midst of a snowy Chicago winter.

2. How would you describe your style?

I wouldn't. Compared to the other girls, I feel the least knowledgeable about what I wear. Clean? Comfortable? Those are my concerns when/if I wake up in time for class. If I were pressed to say something like "skater LA boy and old british grandma go hand in hand to a club." But in the spirit of honesty - clean.

3. Why are you doing this?

Because.

4. But really.

...I wouldn't take me too seriously.

5. Style Icons.

Don't really have a ton. Girls who seem to put themselves together very easily and still look completely distinct. Kate Lamphear, Alexa Chung, Olivia Palermo. I'm sure there are more.

6. Favorite cat video.

Oh, there's just so many.

Meet Kristina


1. The basics.
My name is Kristina. I'm a senior in college studying Communication Science and Disorders. I spend most of my life at my desk or in a lab. One day I'll have my PhD and your children will be sitting in my lecture hall. Scary, I know.

2. How would you describe your style?
HAHAHA. 1/3 Anthro. 1/3 J. Crew. 1/3 Hot Topic. Yes, I am still very, very confused.

3. Why are you doing this?
Because the end is near. The end of my life as a spoiled brat. In a few months EVERYTHING is coming from MY bank account...

I'm hoping to prove to myself that I can live more simply and creatively.

Also...Katherine and Shoe are doing this. It's the same "female psychology" principle behind the idea of "work out buddies". The more friends who are in on it, the more likely you are to actively participate.

5. Style Icons.
Emma Watson, Rachel Bilson, and Zooey Deschanel. At one point I worshipped Avril Lavigne. I apologize to myself everyday. No. Screw that...who am I kidding. Yeah, I wore fingerless striped arm warmers! AND I LIKED IT.

6. Favorite thing ever. In the world.
Coffee.

I'm serious.

7. What are you doing RIGHT NOW?
Studying the facial and oral development of embryos. The mandibular processes MERGE, they don't FUSE!!
