" Hello Seventeen Readers, it&amp;#039;s Kyrstin Himes from Style Council 2011! As someone who has already been through the rough four years of high school and another four in college, I have come out know some very important things when it goes to dressing for school. School is where you find yourself and become the person you love. Through its up&amp;#039;s and downs, it&amp;#039;s the perfect time to experiment with clothes and style. Growing up, I have had my rough moments in fashion, but that is exactly how you learn about style and developing your image or persona. This is my first outfit for the Style Council back-to-school calendar. I really love this outfit because I feel like it expresses my creativity, yet it is simple and chic. I first put on the royal blue pleated maxi skirt from American Apparel. It is long, so it&amp;#039;s comfortable sitting in a chair all day. It will also make you stand out in the hallway! I then paired it with this nude American Apparel crop top. The skirt is such a one-of-a-kind piece that I really wanted to keep it easy on the top. A cute pair of nude wedges topped off the look, along with my favorite accessories! If you have any questions about styling a look like this, just comment below and I will answer you as soon as possible. You can find more inspiration on my blog Vixxen Intentions! Have fun everyone!
