LETTERS FROM THE EDITORS

Dear reader,

Chief among the perks of working at the Daily Nebraskan is the office’s dress code, which I’ll call, uh… flexible. Every day is casual Friday for the band of basement-dwellers who produce your student newspaper. Start in the design corner with Genevra Obregon, who I so rarely sight wearing shoes that I’m beginning to doubt she owns any. Print A&E editor Zach Fulciniti sometimes wears flannel pajama pants when he comes in to work. Enough said, I guess. Joining Gen and Zach in the casual club is copy chief Stacie Sikora, the only member of senior staff who frequents Victoria’s Secret for outerwear. Also probably the only member of senior staff who would spend $80 on a Kate Spade wallet and tell everyone about it – because she got it on sale! Then there’s print News editor Faiz Siddiqui, who agonized for weeks over whether he should buy these $110 Nike sweatpants – because “I just want to spend a lot of money on one nicely fitting, really luxurious” piece of workout gear. We were all pretty invested in Faiz’s potential investment, but last I heard, he’s set his sights on a “luxurious” LED desk lamp instead of the pants. Senior Sports editor Chris Heady dresses like a Dad. Google “Obama jeans” and you’ll get a good idea of how his fit. He usually pairs his denim with a front-facing baseball cap, an oversized athletic jacket and his signature horn-rimmed spectacles. Classic Dad-wear. Online Sports editor Josh Kelly sometimes comes to the DN straight from the gym, wearing athletic shorts despite Antarctic-level chills. One more reason to give up on exercise. The Opinion editors Amy Kenyon and Ben Curttright have consistent uniforms: Amy’s we’ll call “librarian chic;” Ben’s we’ll call “emo kid chic.” Anyone I didn’t mention in this letter: Congratulations, I couldn’t think of anything about your style to mock.

As for me? Sometimes I put effort into my ensembles, and sometimes I don’t. On the days I don’t, I can always be sure that managing editor Conor Dunn will notice. I take his words with a grain of salt, though. With his tight skinny jeans, backwards caps and diamond stud earrings, Conor’s the spitting image of a certain Canadian pop star if you squint a little. Luckily, none of us will be walking in the Daily Nebraskan Fashion Show, which will take place Wednesday at 6:45 p.m. in the Nebraska Union Centennial Room. Actually, scratch that, Conor will be walking. But having Justin Bieber onstage at our event counts as a selling point, right?

See you at the show, Jacy Marmaduke Editor-in-chief

Local boutiques prepare for DN Fashion Show

FILE PHOTO BY AMBER BAESLER | DN A model walks down the runway at the 2014 Daily Nebraskan Fashion Show. This year’s event will feature live music, local vendors, VIP bags and raffle giveaways.

CHRIS BOWLING DN On Wednesday, March 4, the Daily Nebraskan’s advertising department will host the third annual Daily Nebraskan Fashion Show in the Nebraska Union’s Centennial Room. The show, which is free admission and starts at 6:45, will feature 144 University of NebraskaLincoln student models displaying outfits from 14 vendors. The advertising department expects a turnout of 300 to 500 people. DN Marketing Director and UNL sophomore advertising and public relations major

Taylor Kuhlman said many things are changing this year. Each year the staff learns a little bit more about how to run the event, and this year they’re taking a big step and trying something new. They’re adding a pre-show party, which starts at 6, to the event that will feature free food and drinks, live music, beatboxing and raffle giveaways, among other things. “We’re trying to make it a more fun, lively experience,” Kuhlman said. Kuhlman said they want to get people cheering and have them involved in the fashion show’s atmosphere. Planning this event didn’t just fall into

the two months prior when they started gathering models. To pull this off, the advertising department started planning as soon as last year ’s ended. And preparation was another thing that came together differently than in years past. This time, 14 fashion and merchandising students helped coordinate volunteers and vendors. And through their help and the added knowledge of the advertising department, the size of the event has grown. This year will feature four more vendors and two more models per vendor, including a walking

model during the pre-show party, amounting to 54 more volunteer models. “Every year it just gets bigger, better and more diverse,” advertising manager Penny Billheimer said. “I also think it’s a great way for these local vendors to connect with UNL students.” In addition to connecting vendors and students, Kuhlman said another of the advertising department’s main goals is to make the event fun and memorable for every vendor, volunteer and audience member involved.

ALICIA ORTIZ SENIOR BIOCHEMISTRY MAJOR We love great style here at the Daily Nebraskan Arts and Entertainment section. That’s why this year, we’ll be scouting out the best-dressed students on campus to feature in our very first weekly street style section. We plan on featuring all interesting UNL style.

on campus, we’re looking for the best and most unique fashion campus. So to all you trendsetters out there, your next outfit might be printed right here in DN. Shoes – Banana Republic Dress – Target Watch – Michael Kors Glasses – Burberry

I like to do a very classic style, a lot of neutrals and maybe something that really sticks out,” Ortiz said. “I feel a lot more confident when I’m put together and focused; I’m just ready for my day then.”

Fashion trends for Spring 2015 Shoes: Lace-up footwear Remember that summer when gladiator sandals were almost inescapable? Well get ready, because if you think that was overwhelming, wait until you see the shoes from almost every designer’s spring collection. Strings will be creeping up our legs from as short as the ankles and to as high as the knees. Laceup heels, sandals and flats will be everywhere in the next few months as they have dominated the runway shows of Marchesa and Michael Kors.

Patterns: Gingham In the same situation as shirt dresses, gingham has always been an exclusive fall print, but this year it’s time for a change. To make this style work for bright and sunny spring, make subtle changes with your styling. This print will still be in traditional colors such as black, red and navy, but the ways they’re styled will change in order to move this print into a more bright and spring-like mood. This print will appear more on women’s clothing than on men’s, and it will also be more likely seen on accessories with the most common being purses and clutches.

Men’s fashion: Prints on everything In men’s fashion trends for Spring 2015, be on the lookout for prints on everything. No specific print has fully taken over menswear for the upcoming season, but florals and camo have been the two most common trends seen on the runway. Most commonly, prints will be incorporated into shorts and button-up shirts but aren’t limited to these two items. Most patterns will be in the two most popular colors for men’s fashion in spring 2015, blue and green. If the idea of having flowers all over guy’s clothing worries some, have no fear because almost all of these patterns will be somewhat muted and not too outrageous. Think more along the lines of Hawaiian shirts and less about Lilly Pulitzer-style girly prints.

Styles: One-shoulder cuts What used to be reserved as a gaudy style for high school Homecoming dresses is now making a big, sophisticated comeback. This coming season, expect to see one-shoulder cuts on both dresses and shirts. What makes this style so great is that it’s unique and noticeable. We’re so used to seeing normal shirts with two sleeves that when a sleeve is taken out, a whole new style is created. This style will most likely be featured on simple tops in only one color or tops that use color blocking so the style won’t be too overwhelming. Be on the lookout for this cut from the runway shows of Ralph Lauren and Fausto Puglisi.

Women’s Fashion: Shirt dresses Usually seen during the fall, shirt dresses will now become a spring wardrobe staple after this year, and are arguably, one of the easiest to wear trends this spring. All you have to do to incorporate this item into your spring wardrobe is pair it with a pair of sandals and simple jewelry and you’re set. Theses dresses have been around for a while so they are easy to find and fairly affordable. They can be found at more affordable shops, such as the army green dress pictured from Topshop, or they can be found from top designers such as Rebecca Minkoff.

Lotus House provides stress-free haven Lincoln and Omaha locations provide atmosphere for friendship, fun and a healthy state of mind LAUREN BROWN-HULME DN Walking into a yoga studio should feel like coming home. It shouldn’t be a place people feel intimidated to enter. Instead, it should be a place where people come as they are. There should be understanding eyes, accepting hearts and open arms waiting for you there. That was Mary Clare Sweet’s vision when she founded Lotus House of Yoga. “We wanted to create a space where when you walk in you see your best friends and feel all that big love, good vibes and big energy,” Sweet said. “Our intention with that is that people leave and share those good vibes with the people in their families and people at work and that it will just create this huge ripple effect.” Sweet has been practicing yoga since she was 12 years old and has practiced yoga at studios all over the country. She said she wanted to culminate all of her yoga experiences into one place. So in 2010, she opened the doors of Lotus with the help of family members and a few friends in Omaha. Since then, Sweet has opened two more studios in Omaha, and two in Lincoln: one located at 1701 Pine Lake Road and the other at 1314 O St. At the heart of Lotus is community. Sweet said yoga can be a transformative experience that brings people together. Yoga isn’t about becoming stronger physically, she said. That comes secondary to becoming strong in who you are. “That isn’t why you come to yoga,” Sweet said. “You don’t come to get more flexible; you come to yoga to become stronger in your authentic self. So if we can shift you into a vibration of being positive and joyful, that’s going to radiate out from you and into the hearts and minds of everyone around you. That’s how you build a really powerful community.” Sarah Rasby, Lincoln regional director and part-owner of Lotus, met Sweet when they both attended the University of NebraskaLincoln. She helped open the original location and now manages the Lincoln locations. Rasby said she wishes a studio like Lotus had existed when she was in college. Her personal studio at the time was a mat and a DVD to follow along in the basement of her sorority house. She had three jobs and was going to school full-time while balancing her social life. She said yoga helped her deal with the stress of college life. “So many students say they’re juggling so many things at once, not getting enough rest, stressed out all the time,” Rasby said. “I would’ve loved a place like this to go to learn life skills and how to deal with juggling being

I was really intimidated by yoga at that point in my life and Lotus is a really open community, very inviting and warm.” One UNL student who has found a home at Lotus is junior advertising and public relations major Katie Rueb. Rueb said she needed a way to destress, but she hadn’t had much experience with yoga before. “I had heard about Lotus around town and so I stepped in in January of last year,” Rueb said. “I immediately fell in love with all the people there. Everyone was so welcoming, like a family away from home. Everything Lotus represents is exactly what I needed at that time.” Since then, Rueb has become an instructor at Lotus. She said she loves sharing with others, especially other college students, what yoga has done in her own life. “College tells you to be something, do something constantly, and that’s great,” Rueb said. “But we also get so caught up in that world and never get a chance to slow down. Yoga makes you release some of those thoughts, release those things that aren’t serv-

ing you and focus on the things that are.” Rueb said Sweet and others at Lotus don’t care how good someone is at yoga, they care about how good they feel each time they finish a class. She said many people she knows begin to go to yoga to lose weight or gain strength, but the healthy growth in their mindset is why they come back to the mat and back to Lotus. Rueb said overcoming a difficult yoga pose while on the mat is much like overcom-

ing challenging situations in life. She said she’s realized she’s capable of doing both, through the support of the Lotus community. “Yoga is for every single person that walks this earth,” Rueb said. “There’s something from yoga that everyone needs. It’s your journey; it’s your time on the mat; it’s your time to grow.” ARTS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Stella collaborates to offer home decor Clothing shop partners with Loft and Craft and Hunter Gatherer to create natural, authentic home style »Editor’s » Note: This story was originally published online on Dec. 11, 2014, and was updated March 1, 2015, for print.

KATJA DUERIG DN In suite 16 of Lincoln’s Parrish Studios, the creative hub above Gomez Art Supply, lies a cozy gallery of home decor and refinished furniture. The store, opened in September 2013, is called Loft and Craft. But Loft and Craft’s story begins long before that, when co-owner Juliane Glasco graduated from the University of NebraskaLincoln with a degree in fashion merchandising. Just three months later, in November 2006, she opened the downtown boutique Stella with her sister. Eight years later, the skills she learned operating her first business transferred to opening Loft and Craft. “The biggest thing that I’ve taken from Stella is knowing how to connect with people,” Glasco said. “(How to) use your resources within your community, calling upon people that you know have different talents than you.” One of these people was Alison Hill, a psychology alumna with a passion for interior design. “It’s just kind of been something that I always loved and it translated to this,” Hill said. “When I graduated, I ended up more into design.” With a combination of enthusiasm, connections and experience, the two set up shop on the second floor of Parrish Studios. Hill got to hunting down furniture right here in Lincoln to fill the shop. “I do a lot of thrifting and antiquing,” she said, “And I go garage sale-ing, to estate sales, all of that... 80 percent of everything we find is from Nebraska itself.” The styles that fit Loft and Craft are mixed, Hill said. “We really appreciate the mid-century lines, the Danish, Scandinavian kind of look as well,” she said. “But our main feel would be natural elements mixed with really good lines and good bones to furniture.” She said she tries to bring in especially grand pieces for First Friday events. Sometimes, they’ll offer discounts or feature an artist (Glasco’s own paintings have been in the spotlight), but they always have beverages to keep Parrish’s 200-some guests comfortable. But now, Loft and Craft has moved into Stella’s space, along with local nature/art shop Hunter Gatherer. The change came when Hill, Glasco and Hunter Gatherer ’s

Stella Collective celebrated its opening on Jan. 2 and specializes in clothing, vintage furniture and home goods.

Toby Burnham opened a collective, while maintaining their respective roles in the new shop. “Luckily with Stella, Hunter Gatherer and Loft and Craft, our aesthetic works very well together,” Hill said of the merge. Both Hill and Glasco are eager for the move and envision a smooth blend of styles. These three entities take up Stella’s space and have become known as the Stella Collective. “The main changes that will be happening will be within store,” Glasco said, “(to) work into one uniform look.” The natural feel of Loft and Craft pairs well with the plants, bones and other sciencebased creations of Gatherer, she said. Prior to the collaboration was official, Glasco said Stella’s itself would undergo minor changes to modernize its look. Though the clothing at Stella changes with the seasons, she said, the different colors would welcome vibrant accents to the new aesthetic. The move has given Loft and Craft a more exposed space, occupying a big-windowed storefront as opposed to a modest second-

floor studio. And the merge offers an opportunity to those outside of the established Stella Collective. Hill and Glasco said they’re inspired by other creators and designers they see on Instagram. “We’re also going to be looking for different makers to consign with us as well,” Hill said. “So just different people throughout Lincoln, across the country, that we appreciate their style that works within ours.”

Glasco said she was excited to unveil the collaboration to the community of Stella supporters. “I think it’s going to be a really cool space for everybody to kind of just chill out in,” she said. “I think with what we’ve got going on, people will want to be here.” More information on each store and updates on the Stella Collective can be found at Loft and Craft’s and Stella’s Facebook pages.

Dress to impress with clothes from fashion show vendors ERIN MANSUR DN You might not be on the runway, but you might as well look like you just walked off one. If you’re planning to attend the Daily Nebraskan fashion show Wednesday evening in the Nebraska Union, you can dress the part. Here are some emerging street styles that you can pick up at a few of the sponsoring boutiques.

THE BLACK MARKET

1033 O St. in the Gold’s Building The Black Market cycles clothing that’s both vintage and modern. It has many trendy pieces but also home to an eclectic variety of clothing for all styles. Death Metal Denim Returning ‘80s revolution or Britney Spears throwback? You decide. Denim is returning to the fashion scene in loose- and tight-fit styles. Mix and match different types of denim to give an outfit several additional layers. I suggest keeping any non-denim piece monochromatic to focus attention on the denim. Bleach wash denim jacket Gray cropped graphic-tee Bleach wash denim skinny jeans Black western hat In the Trenches Long trench-style coats will return this spring. While singing in the rain and tip-toeing through the tulips, a trench coat can make your wardrobe bloom. I prefer solid prints, but floral and geometric prints are going to be in style again this spring. Also, a bright trench coat is much more fun and interesting than one that is black or tan. Silver strapped heels Low v-cut brown plaid dress Navy collared trench coat Orange western hat

HOME AND CLOSET

1356 S. 33rd St. by Atir Cycle and Sips and Subs Home and Closet has vintage clothing that never seems to age. The store also carries a vast collection of mid-century modern furniture and home decor. Simple Stripes Loose-fitting sleeveless dresses will be growing in popularity this spring. Dresses that are freeflowing and lightweight are perfect for women who have a lot going on and are always on the move. Dress it up or down with elegant accessories. Striped, sleeveless collared dress Thick navy leather belt Gold woven necklace. Poncho Villa I expected them to be a big seller during the winter, but now I’m hoping ponchos will see their day this spring. They’re a nice addition on top of any outfit because they look stylish even when you feel lazy. Ponchos are perfect on days you want to take a blanket to class, work or meetings. High-waisted shorts Turquoise beaded belt Yellow sweater tee Multi-colored poncho Silver and turquoise necklace

cessories boutique, but has recently partnered with Lincoln’s Hunter Gatherer and Loft & Craft to bring in vintage and earthy home décor. Bohemian Netting Never regret wearing a netted shirt. Regardless of what you wear under it, the idea is that the knitting is going to show a little bit – or a lot - of skin. About 15 years ago, wearing clothes that showed more skin was pretty scandalous, but finally it’s be-

coming a norm. Gray maxi skirt Floral netted shirt with tassels Tea cap Sophisticated Scavenger Bones, bullets and rocks are accessories that might seem primitive, but they actually add a pleasant natural touch to an outfit. They can add an organic feel to even the most modern of clothing.

Local artisans who make jewelry and accessories with minerals are showing up all around Nebraska and are giving us a fashionable way to connect with the plains. Short sleeve knitted trench Navy faux leather mid-thigh dress Tooth necklace ARTS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Junior interior design major Linnea Lindquist (left) checks out a sweater on sale at Home and Closet while shopping with Elise Van Hove, senior advertising and public relations major. Every Friday, the store takes 20 percent off the price of accessories and clothing.

Home and Closet sells items aged to perfection SARAH BERGER DN There’s a difference between antique and vintage, a fact Home and Closet owner Clinton Collins will be quick to tell you. Antiques are purchased to view, while vintage items are sold for use. And for this reason Home and Closet, a small boutique located on 33rd and A streets, carries only vintage clothing and furniture. “Most of the things in (Home and Closet) are things you’re going to use like tables, or

chairs and couches,” Collins said. “And all the clothes are things you would actually wear.” After traveling all over the world from Australia to New Orleans to South America, Clinton moved back to Lincoln and realized there were no stores in the area that provided quality, vintage items like the ones he had seen in the larger cities he’d lived in. So, almost two years ago Clinton decided to fill that void by opening Home and Closet, a vintage clothing and furniture boutique that could provide the Lincoln area with

American-made and unique items from the past that still remain trendy today. Now, the small brick building carries an ever-changing inventory of vintage items. Walking into Home and Closet is like walking out of 2014 and instead entering a boutique from another decade. Customers are instantly greeted with shelves of oversized sweaters with multi-colored patterns stitched on them and handmade blankets made from all different methods of crocheting. As one walks further into the store they find all sorts of mid-level skirts, well-worn

denim jackets and intricately unique and sparkling necklaces hanging on the wall in the back of the store. “I like how unique the clothes are here,” said fashion communications major and Home Closet customer Abby Walker. “You can’t get them anywhere else.” Crossing into the home section of the store, you’ll find all types of furniture, from mahogany desks and dressers to ‘70sstyle cabinets and 200-pound benches from

You might live in the same house and have closets right next to each other, but I promise your style isn’t the same. Your sisters are women you trust. They’re there to guide, inspire and encourage, but they don’t need to be a mirror image of you. When we all try to dress like our sisters – or our best friends – fashion gets very bland. Our wardrobes begin to lack diversity, personal style becomes dwarfed and trends start to take over.

My little sister is an exceptional person, but I will never be able to dress like her and she will never be able to dress like me. She’s sporty, athletic and built like an Athenian.

There’s a time and a place for all of them. But when I see women at social gatherings all are wearing crew cut shirts, puffy jackets, leggings and Nike shoes, I get very sad and bored. Anna Wintour, editor in chief of Vogue, called trends “a dirty word” in an interview about the past week’s New York Fashion Week. “Fashion today is so much more about individuality and reflecting a woman’s character,” Wintour said in the interview. Looking at the street style from NYFW you know that very few of the best dressed individuals at that event were worrying about current trends. It might look comical to some, but seeing that there are people in the world who don’t just care about their appearance for the sake of others is relieving and sometimes breathtaking. What’s better than simply following trends? Self-confidence and following fashion on varied platforms can empower your will to be less trendy. To trample trends, a person has be willing to stick out in a crowd and be proud. Encourage your sister to stop “twinning” and be different. Say no more to trending and create style that displays your individuality.
