Who: Clare Bakewell (junior-chemistry)

Why We Think it Works: Bakewell combats the winter chill by wearing funky socks, purchased on eBay, over her black tights with vintage leather boots. Her denim skirt, from Urban Outfitters, paired with a Gap shirt creates a casual yet urban look.

"I am an exchange student and I go to university in the city at home, people get a lot more dressed up [there] than they do here," Bakewell said.
