Winter storms and chilly, damp conditions motivated Chico State students to bundle up this week.
Some students threw on their biggest sweatshirt with their comfiest sweatpants and called it a day, prioritizing warmth over style. Others, however, refused to let the weather take a toll on their accessorization and commitment to fashion.

Ellie Stehr, a sophomore studying geology, sported a vibrant outfit contrasting the dark and gloomy skies that loomed over campus on Tuesday.
She describes her style as a “sub-genre of Ramona Flowers . . . quirky, artsy and skater-y.”
When it comes to constructing a good outfit Stehr said she prioritizes incorporating fun colors and textures. She is most inspired by her brother Zack’s attire.
“He has high standards in fashion,” Stehr said. “I’m held to higher standards because of him.”
When getting dressed, Stehr shared her primary motive — “just not being basic.” Safe to say she accomplishes that goal with her bright colors, various accessories and funky fabrics.
