JK: How do you manage to shop fashionably on a college student’s budget?
ED: Watch the deals online. I definitely shop with something in mind, because otherwise you’ll buy unnecessary things. Don’t be afraid to pay full price for something you’ll wear a lot and that is high quality. I also spend time finding staple items that I can wear with a lot of outfits.
JK: Who are some of your biggest fashion influences?
ED: I check out a lot of style blogs. Kendi Everyday is a fashion blog with a lot of good ideas about mixing and matching things you already have in your closet and wouldn’t think on your own to wear together.
JK: Is there any fashion trend that you really, really hate?
ED: I don’t really get the whole leather leggings trend, or really dramatic high-low dresses. I also generally do not approve of Crocs.
JK: What are some fashion trends you love?
ED: Tan or taupe sweaters. I have, like, four. I also like floral prints.
JK: If you could raid anyone’s closet, be it a movie star’s or a friend’s, whose would it be?
ED: Marty Welsh’s! She’s pretty much my fashion idol.
JK: Do you have any fashion advice for the students of UD?
ED: You don’t have to be a longskirt to wear a long skirt! I just got a really cute red chiffon maxi dress, and I can’t wait to wear it.
