“I love dressing up, but comfy is key around here.” — Janie Wiley
Signature style: “One day I’ll dress like a girly girl, and the next I am dressed like someone out of a rock band. It really just depends.”
Fashion inspiration: “Street style. I don’t get my fashion inspiration from just one person or place, it’s more of a compilation of things, mainly from the people around me.”
Most recent fashion purchase: “A beanie from Ross for $2. I am newly obsessed with hats.”
Fashion trends you love right now: Hats — specifically beanies and fedoras. Wiley believes they are a great addition to any fall or winter outfit. Over-the-knee socks are another trend on her radar.
Trends you hate right now: The bodycon dress. “They are so boring and over-worn. Also, anything tight and with a waist band. Loose clothing is way more comfortable.”
Favorite place to shop: Goodwill, thrift shops or little boutiques. “I like having things that are unique from what everyone else has.”
What’s your take on jewelry: ”Jewelry is great as long as it is something that can be worn everyday. Big costume jewelry tends to look tacky.”
Define Eugene style: ”If Eugene style were to be described in one word it would be ‘eclectic.’ Everyone in Eugene has their own style, which I really like.’”
