Cuse Closet: Bundled Up and Ready to Go


Cuse Closet peeks inside the staff's wardrobes to find out where we're going and how good we look getting there.

The cold weather, complete with wind and cloud coverage, was no match for our Biz Buzz writer Elizabeth Lafontaine. Her jacket, embellished with pockets and zippers, looks both warm and fashionable. By cinching in at the waist, it flatters her figure instead of fitting like a bag.


Her tights, however, are what make her outfit unique. Instead of wearing plain black leggings or any other solid color, she chose tights with a bold print. Since the rest of her outfit is neutral, the tights don’t look busy, but rather give a new sense of life to her outfit (and the mundane grey day). The hues are dark, making these tights perfect for autumn and winter.


She then paired brown boots and a snood scarf (one of those scarves that is a ring of material that can be worn around the neck, head, or both at the same time depending on the size) to complete her look.


As a final touch, she wore a headband for a sleek and polished look, instantly adding a hint of gold in her hair. Elizabeth didn’t have to worry about the chilly weather as she walked to classes. She layered her clothing, added a scarf, and walked into the brisk air looking warm and fashionable. Bring on the snow Syracuse.
