Wardrobe Wednesday: Brittany Beyer

Brittany Beyer is wearing a peach turtleneck she bought from Harrods in England, paired with Paige denim and a glass bracelet from Venice, Italy.

Timeless and sophisticated: those two words define how Brittany Beyer, a junior history and international relations major, chooses her daily outfits.

“I generally shop for staple pieces that are classic. My mom has always had a huge influence on my style,” Beyer said. “From a young age, I’ve learned to shop for investment pieces — I buy good quality items that never go out of style.”

For example, Beyer has invested in a perfectly fitted pair of black Paige jeans, which she has owned for several years, and pricy accessories, such as her pearl Chanel necklace and Michele watch, because they always pull together her outfits to look stylish and refined.

Beyer, after spending her fall semester studying in London and traveling in Europe, bought most of her souvenirs based on that mentality.  While her accessories from abroad bring her fond memories of her travels, they also tie in with her classic and sophisticated style inspiration.

“I loved spending days after class shopping at Harrods.” Beyer said. “On my various trips, I’d wander around shopping for items that complimented my style.”



While Beyer admits she occasionally has the urge to show up to class in yoga pants, she will never succumb to looking “lazy.” Rather she goes to class dressed nicely, and manages to incorporate at least three accessories into her daily ensemble.

She said she’d rarely be seen dressed disheveled because her confidence directly correlates with her clothes.

Beyer applies her “look good, feel good” philosophy even outside of the classroom setting, saying that she believes looking nice for job interviews can give an added edge in her performance.

“At internship interviews, I look classy and stylish to boost my confidence. I will tend to air more on the conservative side.  I’ll typically wear a nice top, black skirt, black tights and a black blazer,” Beyer said. “But I always manage to add youth to my outfits, so for example, I’ll tie in a pair of bright pink Tory Burch flats.”
