Name: Maggie Haden

Age: 28

Hometown: Kansas City

Time in Lawrence: Just visiting for the day

Relationship status: Married

Occupation: I work at an insurance company right now.

Dream job: I have a master’s in history, so eventually I’d like to go back and get my Ph.D. and become a historian.

What were you doing when scouted? I was reading a book about the British Empire and just hanging out.

Describe your style: I like things that are comfortable and affordable. But it takes awhile to build up a wardrobe that’s cheap and looks OK.

Fashion trends you love: Right now, I like a really romantic look so hopefully I can build toward that. But right now, it’s all about comfort.

Fashion trends you hate: I like everyone’s individual fashion. I’m not really against anything. No strong opinions here!

Fashion influences: I follow fashion online and I just piece together what I like, and I try to find pieces that I can afford that look OK on me.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? When I go to Lawrence, I’m always excited to see people’s dogs! So more dogs! Less of? I guess a lot of people look the same. I just hope that everyone has their own individual style.

Tattoos or piercings: My ears are pierced, but I lost half of my earrings.

Whom do people say you look like? Mostly, people say I look like my dad.

What type of music do you like? I like indie music like The Decemberists. I like, sort of, English major music.

Tell us a secret: I feel awkward being interviewed for a style article because I literally bought everything I’m wearing at Target.
