We became fast friends and continued to be so through high school and now university. Kayla and I also happen to work together on campus, share an office and work side-by-side for 35 hours every week in the summer months. We see A LOT of each other, which is great, because I love her. It also means I am constantly a witness of her wicked style.<\/p>\n<p>I consider myself to be somewhat of a fashionista (as voted in my high school yearbook &#8211; fist pump!), and let me tell you, Kayla is one of the most fashion-conscious girls on Lakehead&#8217;s campus. My favorite thing about her style is her willingness to take risks:<\/p>\n<p>White jeans in the winter? Yup, Kayla does it.<br \/>\nSuper high, super bright heels to work? Mmmmhmmm, she works it.<\/p>\n<p>Kayla wears clothing and accessories that I could never <em>dream of<\/em> and she pulls them off with confidence! She also has a knack for pulling random things together, like active wear and casual wear. Somehow Kayla manages to pull off pairing Lululemon athletic tops with designer accessories. It is truly mind-blowing.<\/p>\n<p>I totally admire her style and have to admit, it&#8217;s nice to have such a stylish co-worker and friend. I can say that, without a doubt, the Orientation Office is <em>the<\/em> most stylish on campus.<span id=\"more-52572\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-52843 aligncenter\" title=\"kayla total\" src=\"http:\/\/collegecandy.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/kayla-total.jpg?w=471&#038;h=490\" alt=\"\" width=\"471\" height=\"490\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><strong>Name<\/strong>: Kayla<br \/>\n<strong>Year<\/strong>: 3rd<br \/>\n<strong>Major<\/strong>: Molecular Biology<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><strong>1) Describe your personal style.<\/strong><br \/>\nPreppy meets Southern cowgirl.
