Today on Trendsetters Thursdays I have the absolute pleasure of featuring Bianca. I've been following Miss Bianca for quite some time now and I can honestly say her style is dope! It is such a breath of fresh air to see someone put their own little twist to things. Check out her interview below!
Tell us a little about yourself, who are you and what would you like us to know?
Hi! I’m Bianca aka Roxy, senior biomedical engineering
and mechanical engineering major. VP of
Love-Grace Movement, which is an organization dedicated to the prevention of
human trafficking. An active sorority member of the Order of the Eastern Star.
Award winning researcher.
What is your personal definition of fashion? Do you believe that there is a difference between being fashionable and having style?
Most definitely! Style is eternal, something that comes
to you as an outstanding individual. Style is conveyed through not just your
clothing but the way you carry yourself, you wear the clothes, they don’t wear
you. Someone who is fashionable is just a trend chaser, waiting for the next
report on “what’s hot this season.’’ People who have true style never let the
season dictate their wardrobe.
What are three words you would use to describe your sense of style?
Glamour, Urban, Girly
What is it that you love most about fashion?
I can wake up one morning and feel totally bad ass!
Let’s pull of the Moto jacket and thigh high boots! I can wake up one morning
and feel totally afro-centric and fabulous. Let’s pull out my African head wrap
and a fur coat. Fashion is so unpredictable just like my spirit.
What are some of your favorite trends that are trending this season? What are some of your must haves for this season?
I love my moto jacket, thigh high boots, and the whole
shirt dress fad.
What is your definition of a statement piece? What are some statement pieces that you own?
Raising the ordinary to the extraordinary in a simple or
minimal outfit. For example: I wore all denim and gold strappy single sole
sandals, minimal right? I needed more so I threw on some big hoops and a Generals Hat lol! What are two things in your wardrobe that you absolutely adore and why?
My denim shirt and my black and white striped tee. There
are so many possibilities with these tops. You can dress them up or down. You
can pair them with a tulle skirt or jeans and leggings; two basic staples in my
wardrobe.
What are your thoughts on thrifting? Is it a yay or nay?
Yay! If there’s one thing I love it’s gently worn
vintage clothes LOL!
If you could have an endless supply of anything what would it be?
Chipotle, chipotle is life.
When did you first fall in love with fashion?
When I first came to college. Before college I was just
a trend follower, I wanted to wear what everyone else was wearing but put a
different spin on it. However, when I got to college I really started coming
into my own and developing my own personal style. I wanted to be a really
ambitious and gorgeous woman, so I started styling myself like one.
Are you big on accessorizing?
Absolutely, I think accessories are what make or break
an outfit.
What are some of your favorite places to shop and why?
Dorothy Perkins: Everything is so glamorous and girly
and shimmery just like my style. Plus they are moderately priced and cater to
the curvier crowd of women.
Value Village: I always find thrifting treasures here.
Would you consider yourself to be a Frugal Fashionista?
Yes, being a college student I have to be. Building
supplies aren’t cheap!
Tell us a little about this outfit
I’ve always loved
the glamour that a fur coat could bring to an outfit. Whether it be leggings
and combat boots a fur can glam anything up. I also fancy the idea of mixing
glamour with a dash of urban culture. I chose the Ghanaian head wrap, leather
skirt, and big hoops to show case that you can mix urban and cultural pieces
and still be quite feminine. No girly girl is complete without tights and
heels. J
What
is one thing you would like to be remembered for?
My smile. People say I smile A LOT! Smiling lets the
world know that you have not been beaten and you have not been destroyed.
Smiling is a middle finger to your critics.
What
makes your style sense stand out from the rest?
My confidence. Confidence is always the key if you want
to stand out.
Where do you see yourself in the future?
Happy.
