"My mom is very fashionable and my dad is an artist," she said, which inspired her to be creative with her look at a young age. "Growing up my dad put art all around our home and totally encouraged me to do whatever I wished - and I chose to make things to wear."

Heaton is from Manhattan and works as an arts model at the Kansas City Arts Institute. Johnson is an incoming freshman also from Manhattan.
"I am a fan of strange patterns and I'm not afraid to mismatch as long as it all comes together," she said. "I'm inspired by innovation." - Heaton
"Most times I dress according to my mood," Johnson said. "I can shop anywhere, I love deals and second-hand clothing. I get style inspiration from old TV shows, the Internet and pretty much anywhere." - Johnson

On Monday, the Oread Hotel will host a meet-and-greet and scholarship fundraiser with actor and alumnus Rob Riggle.
The event will honor the late James "Jim Bob" Clarke, a 10-year line cook at the Oread and Eldridge hotels, and the money raised will go toward a scholarship fund for his two young children.
Clarke died unexpectedly this summer and left behind two children, ages one and three, said Nancy Longhurst, general manager of the Oread.
Clarke spent the last five years working at the Oread after spending five years at its sister hotel, the Eldridge.
"We just thought it would be really helpful to their family to provide and to set up some kind of a scholarship fund for the kids since they are so young and since he had worked for us for so long and was such a part of our lives." Longhurst said. "We wanted to do something for the family."
Riggle has starred in movies such as "The Hangover," "21 Jump Street" and "The Lorax." Riggle, who grew up in Overland Park, befriended some staff members at the Oread
during his numerous stays there, Longhurst said. She said Riggle was more than willing to help out when approached by staff members.
The event begins at 7 p.m. in the Hancock Ballroom at the Oread at 1200 Oread Ave. Limited tickets are still available for $99, and the price includes a photo with Riggle, hors doeuvres and live music by Sugar Britches and Garrett Childers and Caroline. This event will also have a cash bar run by Riggle's Loaded Vodka company. For tickets, call the Oread at (785) 830-3927.
