Edgy Collegiate Fashion

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lily Collins is the Cover Stars for the Latest Issue of ASOS Magazine

— September 11, 2014 — Fashion
It's back to school season and American actress Lily Collins is out to help girls get the right look down pat for the fall season. Adopting a collegiate style complete with plaid skirts and letterman jackets, Lily Collins manages to give the look an edgy twist, with the help of a stylist, of course.

Sporting a blunt bob and her signature bold brows, Lilly Collins says, "I own very few designer pieces, I want to collect them over the years. I’m not the type of person who buys a whole collection when it comes out. I want to make sure it’s something I’m going to love for a while. I get lent things, so experiment with my style that way, but ultimately I spend most of my money on vintage and high street.”
