An Open Letter to the Boston Globe

Dear Boston Globe,

Recently, you released your sixth annual list of the “25 Most Stylish Bostonians,” and, for the sixth year in a row, you have made a grave oversight. While I can’t argue with many of the people on your list, I am rather affronted that you chose to include, say, Bruins right wing Brad Marchand, over a certain Dean of Students of a certain local University. Marchand may be a master on the ice, but when it comes to fashion, we here at BU have it all over him. (Even his teammates agree that he might not have been the best choice for the list. “Maybe [the list] was printed wrong?” asked Bruin Nathan Horton.)

Next year, why not consider a true beacon of Boston style?

Look at that bow tie!

Look at that bow tie!

Around BU’s campus, it’s hard to beat our very own Dean of Students when it comes to flair and style. (Some would even go so far as to call it “swag.”) Whether he’s rocking some fly kicks, a bow tie, or a cool hat…

Note the masterful coordination and layering! (As well as the super fly hat.)

…this man knows style! Where is his recognition, Boston Globe? This student blogger hopes to see Dean Elmore find a place on your list next year.

Until then, if you want to come to a cool event and trade style tips with a Dean who’s always ahead of the fashion curve, mark your calendars for THE fashion event of the fall season, the Kick Off/Launch Party for the OoO Tie-made BU Bow Tie. The event will be at the BU Pub, but never fear, youngsters, for this special night, it will be 18+! Hope to see you on Saturday October 22 from 8:00pm till 11:00pm. (We’ll have food and appetizers for you – drinks are on you.)

Hope to see you there, BU – and Boston Globe, if you want to swing by…well, let’s talk fashion.

Cheers, Terriers!
Julia
