 Do It With Stvlc Everybody has a clothing style of their own, whether it's punk, preppy, or just plain comfortable, and Slicers are a prime example. For the people who like the punk new wave styles, it's leather clothing, safety pins, and anything else one might see on the latest new wave idols like Billy Idol or Danny Elfman of Oingo Boingo. Preppiness in students is exemplified by Izod's and Polo's (turned up collars, of course), motif prints. Bermuda shorts, plaid kilts, and the basic colors of pink, green, and navy. Deck shoes and argyles are also popular with the Bif's and Tiffy's” of LaPorte. The most popular style here, though, is probably just plain comfortable, tee-shirts, oxfords, sweatshirts, and faded jeans top the list of comfy clothes. It's the clothes that are perfect for those blue Mondays and the days when one just doesn't feel like dressing up. Many students here are not able to be classified into one certain category. Their styles are a mixture of everything, and no matter what the look, they wear it proudly. For that's what the LaPorte style is all about — being your own person and wear- ing your individualism with pride.
