Abi Newell

Biology major, Abi Newell, shows off her trendy and edgy style and proves that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to look like a million bucks. Abi paired American Eagle dark wash skinny jeans, with a black crew neck sweater from Old Navy, and a chic faux-fur vest also from Old Navy. Brown leather lace-up booties from Rainbow add to her funky style, along with beaded feather drop earrings from Forever 21, and a cool wooden cuff from Payless. Abi likes to shop mostly at Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, and Old Navy because “they have cute clothes for less.” She draws her inspiration from fashion magazines like Vogue, Teen Vogue, Seventeen, and Cosmopolitan where she looks for “what’s in style and [tries] to find it at a cheaper price.” Abi’s fashion advice? “Don’t doubt your own style [and] don’t pay too much… you can always find something just as nice for less.”
