Tara LaPlante
31, financial assistant and artist What are you wearing? A scarf and earrings from Cliché; a pleather jacket I've had for so long I don't recall where I got it; a shirt, belt, pants and boots all from an array of thrift stores.
What inspires your style? Bright and contrasting colors and fun clothing items. This "fun look" can occasionally border on ridiculous though, especially when dancing is on the agenda.
Item of clothing you get the most flak for: Gold lamé.
The perfect Friday night: A little art and a lot of dancing.

What inspires your style? My friends.
Item of clothing you get the most flak for: My grandpa sweaters -- especially my Mr. Rogers cardigan.
The perfect Friday night: Summertime at the cabin -- grilling, pontoon rides and trashy magazines.
Bridgette Rongitsch
29, getting out the vote What are you wearing? Earrings from Cliché, a J. Crew dress and Biala shoes.
What inspires your style? Local artists, designers and activists, my grandmas, trying to suppress my natural tendency to be a dirty hippie.

The perfect Friday night: A fancy dinner followed by art or live music.
Nathan Tylutki

The perfect Friday night: Happy hour, dinner with friends, and then more drinks and dancing. There must be dancing.
