Steven G. Mihaylo - The Original Human of CSUF

You've all seen him around, but today we're showcasing the timeless style of Mr. Steven G. Mihaylo, distinguished CSUF alumnus and namesake of huge buildings on Nutwood Avenue. From his perch on the brick bench in front of the building named in his honor, Steven casually sits back and takes in the sight of Mihaylo Hall and the crowds of students who pass by to and from class each day. With his cuffed pants and bronze-colored suit jacket, Steven showcases an effortless business casual look, the laid-back aesthetic completed by his choice to forgo a tie in favor of a smart-looking Oxford shirt unbuttoned at the top. The unassuming but sophisticated wristwatch and classic loafers are the perfect accessories for his ensemble. - Andrew

CSUF Fashion Show Favorites

At the "Round the Clock" Fashion Show, Titans modeled some trendy spring fashions. These were some of our favorites: 


Like all the models in the show, this Titan is modeling clothes from local Orange County clothiers. Here, she flaunts an all-black two piece ensemble. The well-fitted top contrasts with her loose and flowing skirt, and represents the kind of bold summer fashion we expect to see a lot of in the coming season. Her pumps scream a powerful, independent message and highlight the idiosyncratic fashion choices apparent in this get-up.


We loved this yellow blazer because it gave off the trendy hipster vibes while his pants and shoes gave off a more classy, traditional feel. This blend of avant-garde and conservatism is the outfit of the modern gentleman, and we think (and hope) that this is a look that will last. 


This handsome Titan leads the pack with a timeless red sweatshirt under a cream blazer. As with the gentleman above, this sophisticated look is both trendy and traditional, and has been adopted by A-listers and average fashion buffs across the fashion world. The fashion show demonstrated that so-called hipster fashions have rapidly become the standard in both casual and formal wear - and we don't have a problem with that at all.

Taking things down a notch, a bit - we noticed that the footwear adopted by many of the models line up with current trends in men's fashion. But don't just take our word for it; have a look at what our friends at GQ have to say:
