“I used to never care about my style. I’d throw on running
shorts and crappy tennis shoes. One day I just got
bored of wearing clothes I didn’t even like. Now, style
is a creative outlet for me. I don’t really keep up with
‘fashion’, I just like buying clothes and putting together
outfits. When I feel proud when I’m wearing an outfit I
put together. My days feel brighter when I’m wearing
something I love. I hate leaving my dorm when I’m
dressed bad. I feel more confident in clothes I styled
myself. It makes me feel better about myself.”
