Alix Earle, the 24-year-old social media influencer, made headlines for her whirlwind acceptance to Harvard Business School. She channeled her Elle Woods and stumbled into the limelight. On the day of her visit, Earle tromped in with a big black bag. Inside was an actual stuffed Chihuahua that evoked memories of Bruiser from the hit movie “Legally Blonde.” Her sartorial statements were bold. She paired her iconic coral pink outfit with a mini skirt and a coordinating blazer that glimmered with three silver buttons, hitting the Elle-approved aesthetic square on the head.
In under 24 hours, Earle chronicled her whirlwind trip from Coachella to Harvard. She couldn’t contain her excitement and documented her thrilling experience in an Instagram Stories and TikTok video. She woke up early at 7:30 a.m. PT after a night out with friends, excited for her day on campus.
I truly have the sense that I’m back in class. I’m really just going to audit the class and take part in it, as Earle told me, it’s indicative of her excitement for the lively academic environment at play.
The influencer’s trip included much more than a stop at Harvard Business School. She warmly assumed the role of main attraction for the students. Earle engaged with attendees through a “Q&A with the students,” providing a glimpse into her life as a digital creator and entrepreneur.
Throughout the day, Earle shared clips and updates on her social media platforms, showcasing her journey and interactions with students.
I’m going to spend the day on campus. This is a dream come true! I’m so excited,” she gasped, reminiscing about her amazing experience at the elite university located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
For many fans, Earle’s role at Harvard Business School was a dream come true, as even fans who never attended HBS admired Earle’s ability to infuse glamour into education. Her hot pink blazer and chic, put-together look immediately brought to mind another famously stylish character, Elle Woods.
