To Katherine Dunnell, fashion means wearing what makes her feel good and not caring about what others think. “I’m in a better mood when I dress nice.“
One thing she can never do without is her Cape Cod gold-bead bracelet. “I got it for Christmas from my daddy,” Katherine says.
Katherine’s style is simple and classy. Her favorite stores are J Crew, Madewell, and American Eagle. She shops nearly three times a month! Her method is to never buy what’s on the mannequin “because that’s what everyone else buys, and you don’t want to dress like everyone else. You want to be different and unique.”
Growing up she didn’t have many fashion influences. “I grew up with brothers, so I couldn’t follow what they wore. I learned from my mom and friends.”
Fashion isn’t in Katherine’s future plans. “I plan to be a businesswoman, a businesswoman who dresses nicely every day.” She has fashion standards for her future husband as well. “I hope my husband dresses nice and doesn’t dress like a slob.”
