Fall Fashion
What does fashion mean to the students here? With the new season quickly approaching, we asked around the student body.
Name: Keira Wingader
Grade: 11
Style: Dressy, Comfortable
Favorite Store: Bond Street in London, England. “It’s a whole bunch of stores, I can’t really pinpoint one”.
Style inspiration: “I kind of just create my own style”.
This Fit: dress – H&M (in London) / Shoes – Pacsun
Color: “Green and blues because it works best with the ‘ginger life’”
Fall Fashion: Summer is brighter colors with floral prints and pastels, while in winter you shift more towards dark colors. “I’m in my transition right now,” Wingader says, “this is one of the last times I’ll be able to get away with this.”
Name: Morgan McDonough
Grade: 12
Style: “so-cool-teen”
Favorite Store: American Eagle because he works there. “My style is really influenced by the store. We get new clothes a lot so I know what’s ‘in season’.”
Style Inspiration: Vanessa Hudgens at Coachella
This Fit: All American Eagle
Color: Neutral colors (gray, black, dark blue) because they go with everything.
Fall Fashion: “Summer is more for poppy and vibrant colors while fall is more mellow and laid back.” More of the “neutrals” mentioned earlier are, as Morgan put it, “more for the fall.”
Name: Reynaldo Franco
Grade: 12
Style: Throwback, but also hip and new.
Favorite Store: “ I really enjoy H&M because it has high-quality, but is also inexpensive.”
Style Inspiration: I don’t really have one, Tumblr, and whatever I sees and like I’ll look up.”
This Fit: Jean Jacket – Goodwill / Shirt – Pacsun / Pants – H&M / Shoes – Online
Color: “Black because it goes with anything.”
Fall Fashion: Reynaldo is definitely transitions between fall and winter fashion. “I’ll wear my espadrilles in the spring/summer and when it’s still warm in the fall, then I’ll transition to boots. The same goes for shorts to pants, and more jackets in the fall/winter”.
Name: Kristen Whalen
Grade: 10
Style: Simple, alternative, and comfortable
Favorite Store: Urban Outfitters
Style Inspiration: “If I had to choose one, I’d choose Alexa Chung. If I don’t, I just find something I like and if I like how it looks on me I get it and I wear it.”
This Fit: Shirt – Urban Outfitters / Jeans – PacSun / Shoes – DSW
Color: “Black because it goes with everything.”
Fall Fashion: “It’s kind of whatever I want, but I’ll adjust to the weather. In the Winter I’ll wear heavy sweaters and sweatshirts, but in the summer I’ll wear more tank tops, crop tops, and shorts”.
Name: Morgan Millunchick
Grade: 10
Style: Comfortable, cute, and girly
Favorite Store: Forever 21/Thrift stores
Style Inspiration: Pinterest, “I don’t have a specific person because I like a lot of styles.”
This Fit: Shorts – Sears / Sweater – Thrift Store (originally Target) / Shoes – Birkenstock
Color: “I like white and black because they go with everything.”
Fall Fashion: “What I wear changes with the seasons. I definitely wear different colors like maroon in the fall.”

Style: Americana inspired ‘prep’
Favorite Store: J. Crew
Style Inspiration: John Fitzgerald Kennedy
This Fit: Shirt – J. Crew / Bearbottom – Shorts / Adidas – Shoes
