Sophomore Alexandria Schaffer said \u201cpeople need to stop wearing what other people wear or what they think is &#8216;in&#8217; and just dress like themselves.\u201d Following the trends doesn\u2019t always mean wearing what others wear though. Sophomore Madison Good explains that she tries to follow the fashion trends but she likes \u201calmost anything.\u201d \u201cI like figuring out ways to put certain articles of clothing together in an outfit,\u201d Good said. Good tries to follow the trends, but Schaffer explains, \u201cI just wear what I want to. I like to set the trends, not follow them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spring style for some girls means skirts and flats. For others, it is shorts and tanks. No matter what, everyone has his or her own preference and style when it comes to clothing. \u201cI think I do [have my own fashion sense]. I like to branch out from the average &#8216;Hollister&#8217; look. I like the classic look but with an edge,\u201d junior Kaitlyn Bottorff said. Bright colors and floral prints are the top spring style choices for 50 students who were surveyed during lunches A through E. The spring fashion survey took place on March 16 and 28% of those surveyed favored floral, while 62% preferred bright colors.<\/p>\n<p>With all of the April showers that are expected to come, rain boots are becoming more prevalent among students. \u201cI wore rain boots last year a lot and everybody made fun of me, but now everyone wears them,\u201d freshman Sidney Listenberger said. Good has two pairs of rain boots and says, \u201cI love them, especially for rainy days!\u201d Others are not so fond of the rubber, waterproof boots though. Bottorff does not like them at all, saying that \u201cthey don\u2019t even look comfortable.\u201d Cute shoes are in Good\u2019s wardrobe for spring, and rain boots can add the \u201ccute\u201d factor and fit many students\u2019 personalities and style.<\/p>\n<p>Clothing can be used to show individualism and to express oneself. \u201c[What I wear and shop for] depends on my mood,\u201d sophomore Allison Berger said. There are many different reasons for what one will wear, and with so many different trends for this spring there is much to choose from! \u201cDuring the winter I get bored with jeans and pull out of some of my spring and summer clothes to wear,\u201d Good said. This spring\u2019s trends will surely fill everyone&#8217;s wardrobe with excitement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; By Ashley Combs Floral, military, bright colors, and mixed and bold prints are some of the top styles for this spring.
