Style Sense: Emerson Johnston’s West Coast Chic

Emerson Johnston
Age: 21
Occupation: Marketing Student

Emerson Johnston hopes to be a stylist, and with his sense of style and knowledge of fashion, you may just see his name in Vogue one day. He’s kept up to date with all the latest trends and worked at Forever 21 for a few years as a visual merchandiser, offering his input on outfit set ups and style options.

Emerson is a go-to for updates on trends in fashion. His wardrobe reflects a fun tone that is easy for everyday looks while also offering options for dressing his best. His style contains hints of a relaxed, California livin’ vibe paired with a stronger sense of style to make his wardrobe more chic.

Despite the California vibe, his style doesn’t have a California budget. His wardrobe, filled with items he has accumulated through thrifting, has pieces carefully picked to accentuate while not breaking the bank.
