FASHIONISTO SPOTLIGHT: Gettis McGhee



He has been spotted — Georgia Southern’s first Fashionisto. I get extremely excited when I see a guy dressed stylish on campus. I wish more guys would put effort in looking great everyday and not just when they are getting ready to go to the bars. I think I speak for many ladies when I say we enjoy a stylish man.
Camouflage is a hot trend in guy's fashion. Most guys do the traditional camouflage cargo pants or shorts, but this Fashionisto took it to the next level by rocking a camouflage button down. To make a nice Kanye West heartbreaker theme he adds the lego heart pin, which makes a great accessory. This Fashionisto started Georgia Southern off right in the guy's world of fashion on campus.
Name: Gettis McGhee
Major: Fashion Merchanding and Design
Year: Senior 
CollegeFashionista: Tell me about your outfit?
Gettis McGhee: I like prints, so I had to keep it simple with the pants. The blue in my loafers and shirt are almost the same shade and that's the reason for the red heart pin because I like complementary colors.
CF: If you could choose any celebrity's closet, whose would it be and why?
GM: The celeb closet I would choose is Kanye West because he is a style icon of mine and he isn't afraid to push the envelope when it comes to statement pieces. Everything is simple yet very well put together because of the statement jewelry or any statement piece he's wearing.
CF: Where do you do most of your shopping?
GM: When it comes to shopping I only go to a few stores: Zara, Urban Outfitters, Goodwill and online. I always tell myself the most expensive thing I wear should be shoes. I buy simple when it comes to clothes, but if I see a piece that I know I will not be able to find somewhere else I will go ahead and get it, if it's a reasonable price.
CF: What accessories or piece of clothing can we usually catch you in? 
GM: Rain, sun, whatever, I never go a day without my shades. I wear pins I find and I love loafers and slip-ons.
How To: If I had to name this outfit it would be "The Heart of a Solider." This outfit is more simple than it looks. A camouflage button down top adds a great pattern. He pairs the top with gray pants which are great, because he steps away from the normal and boring blue jean. The blue loafers bring out the color in the top and makes him look really laid-back. Adding the lego heart really gave his outfit a pop of interest and went great with his book bag. Now you try!
Style On,

Kiara Brown
