The Orange Carpet: Wear Warm Weather Fashion in Winter


The Orange Carpet scours SU to roll out the best of campus style (die, hoodies, die!)


Favorite Trend: Johnson describes her style as “street chic". She embraces the already worn look. Johnson is also a fan of translucent and see-through pieces.

Trend the “Needs to Die”: Uggs! Real or fake, they all need to go away.


The Orange Carpet spotted Krista Johnson leaving her Fashion Advertising class in Newhouse. This stylish sophomore is a public relations major. Johnson’s outfit offers a solution to a common winter weather conundrum, how to wear a warmer weather piece, such as a short dress, in the depths of winter. Johnson paired her dress with a knitted sweater, tights and winter weather boots. Paired with the right accessories, Johnson’s dress looks just as fabulous in February as it will in July.


How do you make your favorite spring and summer pieces appropriate for winter?


Johnson is wearing:

Tights: Forever 21

Boots: Boutique in Minnesota

Sweater: Urban Outfitters

Dress: Target

Necklaces, Bracelets & Earrings: Forever 21, a boutique in NYC & vintage
