ASTER NGUYEN

Decked out in a dress shirt and star-patched jeans, junior Aster Nguyen voices deep pride in the way he dresses. According to Nguyen, their style has evolved over the years, slowly growing past what other students wear.  

 

“I’d just wear jeans, a T-shirt and a hoodie, and I[‘d] swap that out in three rotations,” Nguyen said. “Then junior year I was like, ‘I might as well [dress nicer],’ because I was kind of tired of dressing normally — I like [to] dress really well. I like looking better than everyone else.”

 

While a majority of Nguyen’s clothes are from YesStyle, he also goes thrifting and incorporates these pieces into daily outfits. They state how the most important part is how the article of clothing looks, and he strives for a cooler, more edgy look. 

 

“You just see it and you know it's gonna be good,” Nguyen said. “Even though you don't know what you're gonna use it for, you just [think] ‘That could look pretty cool, in theory.’ Then you just buy it. Like, I bought this shirt because I was like, ‘That's pretty cool.’ And these jeans, I actually bought [them] because the star pattern is sick and you can apply [it and] turn [it] into an outfit.”
