Fiona - Duke University

A lot of fashionistas nowadays seem to add much unneeded weight to their looks, straying from the right mantra, where less is better or less is more. Fiona, a senior at Duke University, a member of the Delta Gamma sorority and an Economics Major perfectly embodies the mantra and with a nice camel skirt and a white shirt combinations creates a beautiful yet simple look.

Michelle P. - Duke University

Chance had it that the next person I would get to photograph is also named Michelle and is also a senior at Duke University. Michelle is originally from Puerto Rico, a member of the Alpha Phi sorority and plans on going to med school and eventually working on solving health issues in Latin America.

What I was drawn to most in this outfit was the beautiful light azure scarf that was tucked in the chrysocolla belt.Perfect  combination for a warm fall.

Nnenna - Duke University

While most people cannot wait for Casual Fridays to wind down from a week of wearing business attire, some Duke students like to do quite the opposite and Nnenna is definitely one of them. The red pumps drew me in from a distance and I knew I had to snap a few shots of this natty look.

Alp - Duke University

Alp is a Junior at Duke University and is originally from Istanbul. As you can see, one's geographical origins are extraneous when it comes to taste and style, with brands such as Lacoste and Ralph Lauren being as ubiquitously present on a North Carolinian campus as they would  in the Turkish capital.

Maura - Duke University

Maura is a senior here at Duke University and there is yet to be a day when I meet Maura on campus and her smile and joie de vivre don't lift up my mood. Though it's mid-October and most northern states are already well into the fall season, North Carolina weather has been amazingly summery. Maura's outfit preempts the coming of fall through the cardigan while still maintaining a summery air by pairing it up with a skirt.

Multi-colored Buttons - Ognjen - Duke University

Ognjen or Oggy is an exchange student from Bosnia and Herzegovina. What I noticed when meeting him for the first time was his style and confidence. It seems that a lot of guys in the U.S. have yet to feel comfortable with the newest trends that hover on the slimmer and snugger side of fit, however for Oggy, myself or most European guys it's nothing out of the ordinary.

White/Cream Hi-Tops, Slim Black Jeans and a Blue T-Shirt

White/Cream Hi-Tops, Slim Black Jeans and a Blue T-Shirt to add colour to the outfit (the multi-coloured buttons are our personal favourites)

Kim - Duke University

Kim is one of my dearest friends and ever since I first met her I saw that her sense of style is unique and quite different from other girls' on campus. Kim, just like me, is an International Student and she hails from Rome, infused with everything that's good in Italian fashion. She writes for her own style blog MeshMode.

Kim is wearing a nice, summery - Safari-themed outfit. Anyone who might object to wearing white after labour day, should know that this rule is not only outdated but also does not apply to any country otuside of the U.S.
