Hey guys!Spring break is just around the corner, but winter weather is at full force!  We hope you’re all breaking out your fluffiest jackets and softest scarves to stay warm during the next couple of weeks.Superbowl LI was surprising for many, but what surprised us the most was Lady Gaga’s cool style at her halftime performance.  From the moment Gaga first appeared on the roof of Reliant Stadium in a silver bedazzled bodysuit with matching tall boots, we knew it was going to be a wild ride.  After she jumped off the roof, she put on a gold spiked jacket made out of jewels and sequins.  Then, she took inspiration from the field, and changed her costume into a pair of bedazzled shorts and white football shoulder pads.  Her dancers wore purple, which many saw as a symbol of equality.  We’re happy to see that Lady Gaga killed her performance and outfit game with a great message.Supreme’s long time brand director, Angelo Baque, has left the company to pursue his own project. His new brand will be called Baque Creative. He will still be consulting for Supreme for a little longer as the company hasn’t found his replacement yet. He spoke about Supreme’s growth since the founding of the company and their new collaborations with Louis Vuitton. As he will still be consulting for other companies, Baque said that he will slowly grow Baque Creative in a different way than Supreme, with products designed when he “has something to say, not just for the sake of selling clothing.”This week, Michael Garcia ‘18 wore a chic outerwear look in a pair of distressed winter boots and a long navy wool coat.  Bella Thilmany ‘17 rocked a black leather skirt paired with a metallic long sleeve shirt and black moto boots.  Emma Norton ‘17 looked cool and casual in a bright red vest worn over a red plaid flannel with a pair of Wayfarers.  Science instructor Sasha Alcott had killer style in a pink striped sweater and scarf to match her hot pink ‘do.  Liam Luddington ‘18 styled black loafers under a pair of beige pants and a double-breasted wool coat. Sophia Oguri ‘18 wore black jeans and heeled booties under a trendy black and gold mockneck tweed blouse. Great looks, everyone!Interested in writing for Trendwatch next year?  Applications will be out within the next couple of weeks, and they will be due Mar. 3.Stay stylish,Caroline and Connor
