With so many different styles and fashions, it's easy to create a look that is in fashion and looks good for all occasions.
Monica Hart, assistant professor of theater and costumes said, "Fashion is an art. Clothing is body art."
Fashion is an art, but there are some essentials that go through each year to help achieve a style.
She said: "For girls, there is always the little black skirt or dress, [that is] simple enough that you can dress it up or down. For guys, nice casual suit jackets, pants and vests are good. T-shirts are also always in style for guys and girls. And jeans are always an essential. For shoes this season its tennis shoes or Chuck Taylors for guys, and girls its ballet flats."
With these essentials, the limits are endless on ways to dress warm in the chilly weather. You can turn to your own creativeness that will help you achieve your own personal style and stay warm.
"Students love anything that has a little bit of edge that pushes the envelope," Hart said.
The personal styles of students vary.
Nicole Weisbrich, a freshman undecided major from Inyokern, Calif., said: "I don't dress for seasons. The majority of what I wear is what's closest to me. Generally I dress cuter more than causal."
Heather Ivory, a freshman nursing major from St. George, has a different style.
Ivory said: "I dress cute and causal. I love sweatpants and mine are really cute so they are perfect for going out."
Fashion is not only for the girls; guys have style too.
Chris Bullock, a junior mathematics major from St. George, said: "I dress warm for the weather. I usually dress in nice casual."
There are many different personal styles, yet every season there are trends that occur. Some of the trends this year for girls are scarves and hats, as well as layering clothes for warmth.
