Name: Sammi Horne
Year: Sophomore
Major: Marketing
Dream Job: Independent social media marketer
Favorite store and why: Anthropologie – I love the way they incorporate such unique design and art into their entire brand.
Describe your Style : I love lot’s of deep colors (navy/forrest green/maroon/black). I like to style myself in button ups, moccasins, thrifted T-shirts, sweaters and oversized cardigans.
Favorite local Nashville stores: Pangea
Style inspirations: I love wearing comfortable clothes that I still can feel unique in. I have lots of random pieces, but always stick to the same color palette so that I can easily incorporate new pieces to my wardrobe. My favorite part about my wardrobe is my go-to accessories. I have a lot of hand-me downs and things from my travels. I love using them to tell stories.
Favorite piece of clothing or accessory : Definitely my denim button up. It goes under or over and can be layered with ANYTHING. I’m currently a full time participant of the top-button-buttoned movement. I also love my peter pan jeggings. They are comfortable and unique.

Year: Sophomore
Major: Social Work and Spanish
Dream Job: Working in an international adoption agency
Favorite store and why: Anthropologie because of the eclectic selection of clothing, and it’s exciting to try to find great deals there!
Describe your Style: I love mixing feminine styles of today with retro and grunge looks of the past.
Favorite local Nashville stores: Music City Thrift, Philanthropy and Thrift Smart
Style inspirations: Most of my inspiration comes from Anthropologie, Free People and fashion blogs online. I love to take what I have and mix it into “creations” so I don’t have to buy as much. Honestly, I’m willing to try pretty much any style. I don’t like to be boxed into way of dressing.
Favorite piece of clothing or accessory: My red and blue men’s flannel that I found at Goodwill. It’s comfortable, cute and so versatile! I love to wear it with black skinnies and my combat boots or belt it over a sack dress. Best of all, it was only $5.
