Wandering on Whyte Avenue

November 23rd, 2012 • Macleans.ca

Campus style near the University of Alberta

Today’s Campus Style shots are courtesy of Skye Oleson-Cormack and The Wanderer, an online magazine that’s looking for Edmonton’s Best Dressed. Writer Sansitny Ruth sets the scene:

Just take a five-minute stroll down Edmonton’s Whyte Avenue and you’ll surely come to the same conclusion I did: this is the go-to hangout for the University of Alberta’s most fashionable students. Simple patterns—especially stripes—are thrown in with pops of colour and classic pieces.

As the cold begins to settle in, students at the University of Ottawa are warming up to winter. Dark peacoats are returning this season on men and women with varying lengths and colourful accessories. Some matched their coats with jeans while others chose skirts for a layering effect.

International flair at Carleton U.

Our latest Campus Style photos

Maclean’s photographers are back in Toronto, but our Campus Style blog isn’t done yet. Here’s the sartorial scoop at Carleton University, courtesy of Michel Ghanem. After clicking each of his photos, why not show us what you’re wearing? Tweet a shot to @maconcampus or email us.

As a campus style blogger for The Charlatan student newspaper this fall, I’ve witnessed a wide variety of colours, textures, prints and combinations on students rushing past to class. Carleton’s large international student population and overall cultural diversity definitely came through in these wardrobes. It will be interesting to see how we all bundle up for the harsh Ottawa winter ahead.

Prim and proper at the University of Toronto

October 22nd, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Our latest student style photos

When Jessica Darmanin visited the University of Toronto on the hunt for stylish students, she found navy blue, jean blue and indigo blue, with yellow and red in supporting roles. Aside from the rich primary colours, the common thread was simply how prim and proper these students all looked. Well, almost all. The woman in Angry Birds pants opted for a more casual look.

Pops of colour at Trent University

October 18th, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Photos from our Campus Style tour

The trees at Trent University are adding much-needed pops of orange and crimson to the concrete campus, and students are doing much the same. Our Jessica Darmanin spotted pink hair, rainbow shades and red backpacks against black and brown jackets. (There was also one guy wearing plaid pyjama bottoms who was too fun to leave out.)

Showing off at Ryerson University

Our latest campus fashion photos

Ryerson University in Toronto is known for its performing arts, television and fashion programs, so we weren’t surprised to find a few people with bold styles, from shabby chic (the holes in those jeans!) to the standout studs on Ives Phe’s jacket.

Diverse dress at York University

See what students are wearing in T.O.

York University is nothing if not diverse, so we weren’t surprised by the variety of styles on campus this fall. From slouchy tops and leggings to bowler hats and knee socks, the Toronto campus is looking good. Jessica Darmanin snapped these as part of her Campus Style tour. After clicking each, why not share yours? Tweet your photo to @maconcampus or post it on our Facebook wall.

Confidence at Queen’s University

October 5th, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Are these students the best dressed yet?

Jessica Darmanin’s ninth Campus Style gallery is from her trip to Queen’s University in Kingston. Dare we say that these six students are the best dressed we’ve seen so far? We found a guy who made the blazer, jeans and bowtie combo work, plus a girl whose pearls, floral skirt and purple rims popped. The common thread in their threads? Confidence. After clicking on each of these photos, why not share yours? Tweet your fall fashion to @maconcampus or post it on our Facebook wall.

Where the hot accessory is anything purple

October 2nd, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Campus fashion from Western University

Western University students know how to accessorize. Some keep it subtle—a scarf here, a crown of flowers there. Others aren’t afraid to wear Mustang purple from head-to-toe. Jessica Darmanin went to London, Ont. on homecoming weekend to snap these stylish students. To see what students are wearing at other universities, click here. Since she can’t make it to every campus, why not show us your fall fashion? Tweet your photo to @maconcampus or post it on our Facebook wall.

Practically stylish at the University of Waterloo

October 1st, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Fall fashion from the engineering mecca

The latest stop on Jessica Darmanin’s Campus Style tour was the University of Waterloo. If ever there was proof that engineers are practical people, it’s in these photos. Waterloo engineers dress even more slack than guys at Guelph with jeans, zip-ups and big backpacks (probably full of computer gear). There are, of course, exceptions, like a few psychology students.

Leather jackets, boots and shades at Guelph

September 28th, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

See what students are wearing this fall

Guelph doesn’t shy away from its agriculture and veterinary school roots, so it’s no surprise that leather boots and leather jackets are in style. Unlike at some schools, it seems Guelph guys can get away with hoodies and shades. These photos are from Jessica Darmanin’s campus tour where she’s keeping one eye out for campus style.

East Coast surfer style at Acadia University

Wolfville, N.S. fashion in photos

East Coast surfer style is all over Acadia University in Wolfville, N.S. But when they’re not in Hurley tees or Billabong hoodies, they’re at least looking more relaxed than Dalhousie kids. Check out the shots Jessica Darmanin got on the final stop of her tour of Atlantic Canada where she captured campus fashion. Click each photo to make it bigger.

Staying cool—on student budgets—in Halifax

September 19th, 2012 • Jessica Darmanin

Dalhousie and King’s students show us their fall fashion

Photographer Jessica Darmanin is touring Atlantic Canada with an eye on campus fashion. First up, Dalhousie University and King’s College, where the kids are staying cool on student budgets. High-waisted pants are in—and one of these ladies got hers at Value Village. If you’re wondering where to buy Genevieve’s shades, don’t bother; they’re hand-me-downs from Dad. Lesson to first-years: raid your parents’ closets at Thanksgiving. Next stop: Memorial & St. Francis Xavier style.
