Classy College Chic

Classy College Chic.

Yoga pants. Sweat Shirts. Sneakers. 

The typical female American college student dons these ever-popular clothing items after rolling out of bed and heads to class in a daze.

It does not have to be this way.

Over the next few weeks I am beginning a series of ways to dress for less and for success. The series will have a daily picture of great ways to look classy (pun entirely intended) and revolutionize your campus.

Worried you will be the only one looking sharp? Dare to be different! Ladylike elegance is never shameful.

"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:1 

Cuddling up with hot chocolate for an in-dorm movie night warrants sweatpants. However, they say if you look good, you preform better. I don't know about you but I could use all the help I can get with college grades. 

Tune in for some great ensembles fit for Audrey Hepburn herself.  

Modesty Quote #2

"Modesty in dress and manner will assist in protecting against temptation. It may be difficult to find modest clothing, but it can be found with enough effort. I sometimes wish every girl had access to a sewing machine and training in how to use it. She could then make her own attractive clothing. I suppose this is an unrealistic wish. But I do not hesitate to say that you can be attractive without being immodest. You can be refreshing and buoyant and beautiful in your dress and in your behavior. Your appeal to others will come of your personality, which is the sum of your individual characteristics. Be happy. Wear a smile. Have fun. But draw some rigid parameters, a line in the sand, as it were, beyond which you will not go." -President Gordon B. Hinckley, 2004 from a talk entitled, "Stay on the High Road"

Modesty Quote of the Day

"The girl who chooses to be modest chooses to be respected. A boy who is honest with himself will admit that he likes a girl who is modest in speech, conduct, and dress. Modesty is one of the great virtues he looks for in the girl he hopes to marry. Most of us know what is modest, and most of us know when modesty ends and immodesty commences. We know that nothing detracts from the loveliness of a young lady more than immodesty in speech or immodesty in conduct. A girl fools only herself if she thinks she isimpressing a boy by immodest conduct. The young lady who dresses in an immodest manner ceases to be attractive and embarrasses the young man. She has called his attention to the person rather than the personality. The girl who chooses to be modest, chooses to be respected."
