looks for spring | 3

As we began stitching this issue together, we came across an overarching

theme that seems to be the buzz phrase of the moment: buy local. From our

vendors to our student writers and designers to our models, everything has

roots in Lexington.

This issue is jam-packed with incredible photography, stories and tips all

revolving around the amazing city in which we live. We had the opportunity

to partner with four locations unique to Lexington for our shoots – a bistro, a

bookstore, a fi tness studio and a grocery store (yes, you read that right). And

we teamed up with Alex McLean, Lexington native, NYC dweller and editor of

fashion blog LexWhatWear, to bring you inspiration for styling our top spring

trends.

We also got to work with some of the driving forces behind Kentucky’s

locavore movement – Shop Local Kentucky, who’s Instagram following

jumped almost overnight to 20,000, and My Kentucky Tee, a tee shirt

subscription service (think Birchbox for Kentucky merch) intent on spreading

Commonwealth pride.

As we step into spring, the season of all things fresh and new, it’s important

to remember the people and places around you. The boutiques and vintage

shops are trés chic, as are the local eateries, co� ee shops and green spaces.

Get out and explore your city, Wildcats.

Think what you will, local is here to stay.

BORN TO SHINE LEGGINGSshop twenty something $32

Monochrome is and will continue to be a personal favorite fashion

trend of mine. Black and white is clear cut, easy style. From tops

to bottoms and everything in between, monochrome is more

versatile than ever and looking quite bright for spring ’15.

In the season ahead, this sleek style will embrace many other it-list

trends. On the runways, we saw monochrome take on gingham

prints, statement shirt collars, bold stripes, masculine influences

and transparency designs. To me this is a huge step for the fashion

industry. Anyone and everyone, from your all-American girls to

your fashion moguls, can play with trends right from the runway

and weave them into the real world.

My top tips for trying the monochrome trend is to wear pieces

that fit your body. Black and white can be forgiving, but you

don’t want it to send the wrong message. Wear pieces that flow

and flatter your shape and style. I often need to find balance

between structured bottoms and oversized tops. I tend to rely

on monochrome styles to achieve balance while still making a

statement.

How did you get the idea to do a fashion blog?

I had followed blogs long before the blogger-surge, and I would

refer to them often. Although there were only a few fashion

blogs out at that time, I had a daily routine in place that allowed

me to follow their outfi ts, inspiration and style tips. Then a co-

worker mentioned the idea of starting her own blog. I often sat

with her as we would talk through her ideas, and I remember

feeling excited and almost envious of her new adventure. As

her blog went live, I knew I could absolutely do it, too. She was

an inspiration for me and set the bar very high. When she later

approached me about starting a sister-blog to her year-old

website, I was all in immediately. At that point I had studied and

researched every outlet I could. I knew what I had to do to make

it successful and FUN for myself. When I launched in August of

2011, I had no idea it would become what it has.

How has living in New York City changed your perceptions of

fashion - and what it means to the average person?

Fashion in New York is very much like an individual sport.

It takes practice and it takes a lot of who you are to make a

“winning” look. Style here is not gimmicky. To be honest, I feel

like good NYC style is more scrappy. You gotta pick up those

pieces in your wardrobe and create the look you want. It’s never

overdone here; no caked on makeup and sky-high hair. It’s more

about fi nding the right elements of your style and building a

foundation to build on.

What tips can people living outside New York City pick up

from the NYC fashion scene? (In other words, how can NYC

fashion be practical fashion for the average person?)

Most of the looks and styles you see in magazines and on

television cost a fortune. Fashion advertising can often make

us feel like we will never make enough or have enough to fi t in

with the trends. I’m here to tell you that not everyone in New

York is running around in Manolo Blahnik pumps with a Celine

bag tossed over their shoulder. People here are working hard to

look good, too. Part of my mission is to use Lex What Wear as a

style tool to show others how inexpensive pieces can still look

like a million bucks. Forget the NYC fashion you see in the media

and think about how you can take current trends into your

own hands using your budget. Lastly, I will say that the most

important tip I can give anyone is to have basics that you love.

Build your wardrobe around them and you’ll be surprised at how

quick you fi t into the fashion scene.

ALEX MCLEAN lex what wear

No longer reserved for your all-

American picnics, gingham goes

grown-up for spring with sheer

fabric, cutouts and high slits. Opt

for baby blue, and black and white

instead of the traditional fi re engine

red. Our favorites: Oscar de la Renta

and Diane von Ferstenburg.

Navy is unmistakably the NEW black

for the spring/summer season. After

a stunning appearance on fashion’s

biggest runways, this powerful color is

having a major moment at the top of the

trend list. Added bonus: Styling navy with

your current wardrobe is incredibly easy!

I prefer a more tailored navy look (i.e.,

suit separates, structured blouses, pleated

skirts, etc.). I see it as a classic color that

pairs perfectly with bright shades like

orange and pink. When paired with a pop

of color, a navy blazer suits my style best.

I took many notes from the spring

runways for unique wasy to style navy

in the season ahead. For starters, a navy

maxi dress will never fail you. Secondly,

an all-navy look is not too much; it’s

head-to-toe perfection. Lastly, when all

else fails, navy is the most reliable preppy

color. Whether you tend to lean more

nautical or more Southern belle, you can’t

go wrong with the must-have color.

Considered one of the strongest trends for the coming

season, polka dots are already making a notable appearance

at celebrity red carpet events, on the covers of top fashion

magazines and in spring/summer 2015 collections for

namesake brands such as Dolce & Gabbana. Polka dots have

survived multiple decades in fashion, yet they

remain relevant and cool.

For the warmer days ahead, I see polka dots playing a huge

part in both corporate and casual dressing. When paired with

converse sneakers, a boyfriend jean and a light jacket, they

can be cute and simple. If you pair your polka dots with a

fitted pant, culottes or a pencil skirt, they become sleek and

sophisticated. I’d suggest a solid cardigan or blazer to top o�

your professional polka dot look.

The final key note to making this trend part of your wardrobe

is to find the right piece - something that adheres to your

style sense and personality. A print should not wear you, you

should wear the print - and wear it well. Don’t be afraid to

have a little fun and seek some inspiration from Pinterest,

style magazines and, of course, your favorite bloggers.

IT’S A LOCAL THING

Shop Local Kentucky

Meet Rick Paynter, you probably follow

him on Instagram. He’s the mastermind

behind the fl ourishing company, Shop

Local Kentucky. When he’s not working

as a social media consultant, he’s blowing

up your Instagram feed with pictures of

awesome landscapes, food, co� ee and

Kentucky merch.

Q: You said you came into the apparel

thing by accident and I know you’ve

been working on an app. It’s been halt-

ed from what I understand.

A: The funny thing about the whole Shop

Local Kentucky thing is that it started out

with the best intentions of creating that

app and creating this community around

shopping local. And while I think that

we’ve achieved that on a certain level,

the feedback that we get from businesses

is that it’s not

what they

want –they

didn’t see it

as helpful. My

vision for it

was, a guy’s

in Pikeville and he doesn’t know where

to eat so he pulls out the Shop Local

Kentucky app and fi nds what’s around

him and eats at a local place. [Local busi-

nesses] didn’t see that as a winning point

and I get that totally. We kinda had to

change our whole scheme of things and

my thought on that was let’s turn it into a

place where people can buy locally made

goods by local makers, local designers,

local printers and become a commerce

site where people know that they’re

buying something local.

We’re pretty proud of that, we keep about

80% of the revenue of the site in state

boundaries. That’s big for our community

Q: You have mastered social media, at

least from a selling aspect. How’d you

get to that point?

A: I decided to do social media marketing

as a consultant, it started o� slow kind of

as a silly venture that grew into an actual

business and that’s what I do. I run a

business called Georgetown Geek. We do

the full gamut of small business mar-

keting. That’s really where it got started.

With it being called Shop Local Kentucky,

I think it appealed to people on a higher

level than if it were Bob’s Apparel Compa-

ny. I don’t want to say it was easy by any

means. We spend a lot of time on it and

I think that’s something that sets us apart

from other brands. When I look at social

media and see the brands who are doing

it well, they’re not doing it between 9 and

5, they’re doing it 24/7… I think that peo-

ple can go ‘oh they’re showing a picture

of a co� ee mug with North Lime on it’,

people can put themselves in that place.

Q: We talk about this rich community

that we have; how can UK students get

involved?

A: I think that the community as a whole

and our generation, ours and the one

above us, has taken this huge shift and

it’s so obvious by our co� ee choices, beer

choices, food choices, anything, keep on

going. I think that clothing is no excep-

tion. We’re seeing this resurgence of local

clothing companies. Anything that we

can do locally,

regardless

of wheth-

er you’re

involved in

a group or

marching

downtown, the best thing we can do

is seek out these local places, eat weird

food, drink weird drinks. That’s how you

learn.

Meet who we’re calling the Tee Masters – three local shops selling crazy awesome tees

(and sweatshirts) that brag on all of the goodness Kentucky has to o� er.

Each brand locally sources its wares, has a pretty hefty social media following (what’s up

millenials!) and fi nds a way to give back to the Lexington community.

Here’s the even better part – they’re a� ordable! What better way to show

your Kentucky pride than by wearing locally made apparel? Here, we give you

a peek inside what it takes to make Kentucky Proud happen.

The best thing we can do is seek out local places, eat weird food, drink weird drinks. That’s how you learn.

The best thing we can do is seek out local places, eat The best thing we can do is seek out local places, eat weird food, drink weird drinks. That’s how you learn.



My Kentucky Tee

Following in the footsteps of Birch-

box, Graze and Club W (check

these guys out if you haven’t

already) the folks over at My Ken-

tucky Tee jumped on the month-

ly subscription trend, but they

put a Kentucky twist on it. For $15

per month, subscribers receive a

beautifully designed tee that’s all about

love for the Commonwealth. Previous

designs include the ‘Intro Shirt’ (see p.27),

the ‘Everything Bluegrass’ shirt (p.31),

the February 2015 design (a Kentucky

heart for Valentine’s Day) and the March

2015 design featuring everyone’s favorite

beverage container – the Mason jar.

If that’s not awesome in itself, My

Kentucky Tee recently partnered with

the Finley Foundation for the Finley

Valentine’s Campaign to help raise

awareness and research funding for SIDS

– sudden infant death syndrome. The

Finley Foundation was established by

two parents who lost their 3-month-old

son to SIDS. My Kentucky Tee designed

custom shirts, in red and pink, with a

radiating heart in the shape of Kentucky.

To help support a local cause, $6 of

every sale went to SIDS research via the

Finley Foundation. According to the My

Kentucky Tee site, the campaign raised

$1,422.

SWEATER, SHIRTlogan’s $75, $125

What motivated you to

write a novel?

I’ve always felt, and still do,

that I have things to say, but I

usually lacked the motivation. I used

this year’s National Novel Writing Month

(NaNoWriMo) contest as an incentive for me to fi nally put

the words on paper.

What are your biggest inspirations?

On a local note, UK’s own Professor Hannah Pittard. She’s

living proof that my dream is possible, and she’s a great

teacher. More abstractly, when I’m at my Dad’s house in

Georgia, the sky gets crazy clear at night. Looking at all the

stars and the moon usually gets me thinking.

What’s your recommendation to other students who want

to become writers?

Ha! I don’t think I’m nearly qualifi ed to give anyone advice.

If I had to, I’d say to keep writing and share your works with

those whose opinions

you trust. You probably

won’t like your initial

works, but that dislike means you

have taste – and that’s all you need to get

better.

What are you currently reading?

It’s been harder to read on my own now that the semester

is in full swing. I just fi nished Raymond Carver’s short-story

collection, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love. I

plan to try to tackle Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina very soon.

If you were to make a playlist for your life, what would it

be called and why?

“Stu� Happened” That’s probably a cop-out answer. That’s a

tough question. I feel like life is so arbitrary that it can’t really

be summed up in a few words and have it be much di� erent

than that.

continued on next page

a junior English and Andrew Turner,

French double major who just fi nished his fi rst novel. Yes, you

read that right. Outside of his classes, work and French Club meetings (he’s the president), he wrote a 200-page novel called Flight. And he did it

in one month.


44 | k r n l

What are fi ve things you can’t live

without?

My headphones. My Bonnaroo

wristbands. My half-sized notebooks.

My ukulele. And my Kia Soul (aka the

hamstermobile).

What are your top three style basics?

A good-fi tting coat. In the winter, it’s

such a huge part of our daily wear, so

it’s worth getting the right one. I like

mine just a little bit on the snug side.

A nice set of pants – jeans or khakis.

It has to hit that sweet spot, though –

snug but not too skinny is the way to

go for me. I’ve got to give a shout-out

to the fl annel button-down. Crazy

comfortable and I love the look.

Who would you invite, dead or alive,

to a dinner party?

Justin Vernon (lead singer for Bon

Iver – my favorite band). There hasn’t

been a single release from him that

I haven’t loved. And his interviews

make him seem really down to earth –

something I can get behind.

What is the trend you like the most?

The return of the elbow patch

sweaters! It’s probably a really

pretentious thing (and dare I say,

hipster) but I think they look great

when done correctly.

What’s the trend you hope to see die?

Leggings! They are not substitutes for

pants, people!

What’s the most important lesson life

has taught you?

Life is in the little things. Looking at

the big picture is daunting, and even

overwhelming at times. It’s important

to enjoy the small things as much as

possible – even if it’s just your favorite

song coming up on shu± e.

What’s your most treasured

possession and why?

Probably my vinyl copy of Bon Iver’s

album, Bon Iver, Bon Iver (a little

redundant, I know), for two reasons. It

was, and is, the most infl uential album

on my life thus far. Also it represents

my modest vinyl-collecting hobby. It’s

really nice to come home after a long

day, throw on that album, and just let

it spin.

What is the most underrated word?

Lexicon. A fun word about one of the

things I love most. It’s a win-win.

What’s your favorite quote?

“So it goes.” – Kurt Vonnegut,

Slaughter-House Five

”” When I lie down, I am transported back in time. Like when you listen to

a song that you haven’t heard for years and all the memories of that era come

with it. I’m twelve, listening to my CD player play a Bowling for Soup album.

I’m sixteen; it’s the fi rst time I snuck my girlfriend Lucy in for a night. And I’m

nineteen, packed and ready to leave the next morning. I’m nineteen, crying into

my pillow – over friends I have lost already and others that I will lose soon. I’m

nineteen; afraid the world will swallow me like it did to Jay.

I’m twenty-six again.

I roll over and tuck myself underneath the covers.

Sleep approaches with just a single word hovering over my consciousness.

Okay.
