J-14's loved having Greek's Amber Stevens as our very own celeb fashionista this summer! Check out her answer to J-14 reader Nava Melody's major scarf dilemma below, then let us know what you've thought about all of Amber's fun style tips!

I got a super cute dark pink scarf with black peace signs on it for Christmas last year. What colors on a shirt or tank would match a scarf like that?

- Nava Melody, Yekita, OK

Hi Nava Melody!

Black and pink are pretty bold colors! Try to match it with different shades of pink, grey, or silver. Be sure the scarf is your boldest piece you have on!

Scott Michael Foster plays the always scheming Cappie on ABC Family's Greek, the Kappa Tau president known for his many majors and tons of hilarious plans -- plus he's quite the girl magnet! J-14 talked to Scott about the upcoming season of Greek will be like, his old co-star Jesse McCartney, and what he really thinks about his castmates! Look for even more of Scott when Season 3 of Greek premieres on Monday, August 31, on ABC Family!

J-14: What can we expect in Season 3 of Greek?
Scott Michael Foster: Without giving too much away, we left off [season 2] with the end of the world party, and so it's the whole Cappie and Casey thing -- what's gonna happen there. Cappie was on top of the roof wondering what he should do. We literally pick up right where we left off, and it's the next day. There's things that you have to do to figure out what you want, and so that sort of starts off the whole season. It's definitely going to be a lot of fun, and we're touching on some new stuff. We're going to expand on Cappie being in a secret society and his relationship with Casey, so you'll see a lot more of that. You'll find out about Dale -- he has to struggle with his religion for awhile, like some college students do. That's actually a really cool story line.

J-14: Do you still keep in touch with Jesse McCartney, who guest-starred on Greek last season?
Scott: We were hanging out shortly after he got done with his stint. I went to go see a couple of this shows, and we went and played pool with some other castmates. It was a lot of fun, but I know he's busy right now, so I haven't actually talked to him in awhile!

>J-14: What is your favorite behind-the-scenes memory from the show?
Scott: There's so many, it's hard to just pick! It's like going to college without the schoolwork, so you can imagine what that's like. It's so funny to go back when they make little blooper reels of the season and behind the scenes stuff. Those scenes they show in the DVD, that's exactly what it's like. It's a lot of fun. I can't even think of one thing.

J-14: Have you gotten into Twitter?
Scott: I have actually never been on Twitter. It's just like public IM site, right? I've heard it's the next big thing. There's like eight Scott Michael Foster Facebook pages, and I don't know how they do it, but a lot of people think so many of those sites are me. I'm like "Nope, that's not me!' Some are fans, and then some are actually impersonating me. It's weird to look on and see that other people are pretending to be you!

Let's play word association with your castmates. Jacob Zachar.
Scott: Gangster.
J-14: Spencer Grammer.
Scott: Sweetheart.
J-14: Paul James.
Scott: Pranskter.
J-14: Jake McDorman.
Scott: It's not one word, but pool hustler who always beats me!
J-14: Amber Stevens.
Scott: Singing.
J-14: Clark Duke.
Scott: Comedian.
J-14: Dilshad Vadsaria.
Scott: Rebecca because that's her character's name. She's really not [like her character]. She's actually very smart, mature, and well put-together.

School uniforms and dress codes are no fun when all you want to do is look unique! J-14 reader Ariana is totally dealing with that right now, and we bet a lot of you are figuring out how you can look stylish at school despite all those rules, too! Luckily Greek's Amber Stevens, J-14's fashion guru, is here to teach you some style tricksshe learned back in her H.S. days when dealing with the same probs! Check out her advice below, and don't forget to check back next week for her last piece of fashion advice (tear!).

Hi Amber!

I am going to high school, and we can't add colored shoelaces, headbands, or flats to our school uniforms. What should I do to look unique but not break the rules?

- Ariana

Ariana, try some fun hairstyles and colorful make-up. Also, if jewelry is allowed, find a bold watch and some cute studded earrings. Stay subtle though -- no need to go overboard to just stand out!

<3,
Amber

What do you do to dress up a school uniform but not break the rules? What are your fave ways to look unique at school but still work with your school's dress codes?

Finding clothes that fit your personality isn't always as easy as it seems -- sometimes it even leads to a total style rut. Greek's Amber Stevens gets to wear clothes that fit two different types of girls -- her own sweet style and the funky fashions of her character Ashleigh. And as J-14's style expert, she was so the right person to help Kimberly figure out her dilemma. Amber''s got some awesome tips below, and she'll be back next Friday with another installment of her fashion q & a!

Hey Amber!

Most people think I'm "emo" when they first meet me because I only wear black, but I'm not! Now I want to get a more girly look. I went shopping with my mom and found a baby blue top and skinny jeans. Is that a good start? What else can I do to look "girly" but still feel like me?

- Kimberly

Kimberly -

I think a baby blue top and skinny jeans are a great start -- kinny jeans are essential! Put on a cool scarf over your t-shirt to add some pizzaz. A fun blazer or leather jacket look great layered over a t-shirt! I can't live without my leather jacket -- it's be best way to dress up a plain outfit. And instead of sticking to just t-shirts, try other types of tops like an empire waist top.

What do you think of Amber's advice? Are you a fan of layering? What do you do when you want to change up your look?

Who doesn't want to wear the hottest trends? Sometimes they're super cute but tough to wear if you're not a really specific body type. That's where J-14's helpful fashionista, Greek's Amber Stevens, comes in! She's got some great advice for curvier girls! Her tips for Becca Lynn are below, but then check in next Friday for more stylish ideas from Amber!

Don't forget, Season 3 of Greek premieres August 31 on ABC Family -- wonder what cute clothes Amber's character Ashleigh will get to wear!

Hi Amber!

I'm kinda big on top and in the middle. What cute clothes would make me look a little smaller but fit my shape?

- Becca Lynn

Becca Lynn -

Try triangle shaped tops! They will give the illusion of a smaller waistline. Wearing flared pants is always a good way to go. Also, empire waist dresses with leggings look great on any shape!

Amber

What do you think of Amber's advice? Do you have the same problem as Becca Lynn? What are your fave clothes to accentuate - not hide! - your shape?

What girl doesn't love shoes? J-14 reader Kristine loves the pair she just bought, but she's got to match them with something. Cue J-14's sylista, Greek's Amber Stevens! As usual, she's got some awesome tips for all of you! Check out her answer to Kristine's dilemma below, then check in next Friday for a brand new tip from the Greek gal!

Hi Amber -

I bought cute wedges but I don't know what to wear with them. Help!

- Kristine

Hey Kristine!

Wedges are great cause they can really be worn with anything. If you have wide-legged pants that are a little on the long side, slip on your wedges. Or you could wear them with a sundress when it's warmer out. Jumpers are back in style now, and those look great with wedges.

<3,
Amber

What do you think of Amber's advice? What do you pair your wedges with? Are you into the jumper look? What are your fave shoes to wear this summer?

J-14 loves the fact that Greek's Amber Stevens is answering all of your fashion questions. She's got some sweet style helpers to back up her tips, like Greek's stylist, Mandy -- she puts outfits together for Amber's character, Ashleigh. "She's really funny and cool and most of the time, my costume for the scene is something Mandy is wearing to work that day!" Amber tells J-14. "She'll coordinate and say, 'Oh I own that, I'll wear that the same day to work so we're matching.' So I basically wear everything she wears." Amber also got to meet fashionista Lauren Conrad from The Hills when LC guest starred alongside Amber and Spencer Grammer in the season two finale.

Since Amber's got so many fashionable people in her life -- and she's quite stylish herself --- Amber was able to give Amanda great advice on changing up her style. Check out her tips below, and look for her next fashion q & a next Friday!

I have the problem of always wearing the same style, but when I try to change it up a little bit, it just makes me feel uncomfortable. I like the preppy style I have, but people always tell me to change it. In some ways, I can't! What do I do?

- Amanda, FL

Hey Amanda -

Stick with the style you love! It can be hard to go outside of your comfort zone, so start small and try new accessories. Add some hair ornaments or wear long necklaces and hoop earrings. Changing the colors of your clothes could help, too, but be sure to tell your friends to buy you new clothes if they want to see you in something else so badly!

Amber

Hi Amber!

I really need your help. There's a dress-up night at camp, and my crush is gonna be there. I don't want to go all dressed up, but I don't want to look like I don't care either. I was going to wear some cute flats, leggings, a skirt, and a rockin' tee shirt! Would you change add anything change something up?

- Paige

Paige, I love your idea for an outfit. If you're looking for a different idea, maybe wear the leggings with a cute dress, a waist-belt, and some fun jewelry. It's a little more dressed up, but it will still be fun and casual with flats!

<3,
Amber

Dear Amber,

I love your style on Greek! I am going to a beach BBQ in a few weeks, and I want to look super cute but still be comfy in the heat and be able to wear it all day and night. What do you think would work?

- Lee

Separates are great. Start with a cute bikini and layer over a shirt, jean shorts, and a jacket for later. Roman sandals, hats and sunglasses are a must!

Amber

J-14 hung out with Greek's Amber Stevens in Los Angeles, where she dished all about her character, on set pranks, her fave episode, and more.

J-14: How are you like Ashleigh in real life?
Amber: Ashleigh loves to socialize and have fun. She's boy crazy and positive all the time, and I find myself very similar to that. I'm not as much of a party animal. I'm a little more intelligent than Ashleigh. I'm not as big of an airhead! She's real silly and isn't a leader, which is what's fun now because she's been given this leading role as President and has to figure out how to make that work. I've always been the leader. I was in student council. I was the president of my high school.

J-14: How has Ashleigh changed since the start of Greek?
Amber: Making her President of ZBZ has opened up a whole new world. They're trying to challenge her, see if she can pull off being President. So far she's completely oblivious to what's going on and her duties. She's used to being social chair and taking care of parties so now she's got more responsibility. She has a guy, Fisher, and she doesn't know how to balance being President and keeping her relationship a secret. Ultimately, she's just there to have fun and be a BFF to Casey.

J-14: Is it weird to kiss a guy with all the cameras around you?
Amber: It's awkward! The first time I had to kiss someone on the show was Paul [Calvin]. That was extremely weird because we're friends, so it's like making out with your friend! Kissing Andy, who plays Fischer, was awkward because it was the first day we met. He shot all the scenes for the first episode he was in during one day. I met him during the table, read and it was like, "Hi, nice to meet you. I'll be playing your new boyfriend." Then I saw him a week later, and they were like, "You guys have to grab each other and go for it!"

J-14: Are there pranks on set?
Amber: Paul is the king of pranks. Paul and Sarah, who is our head make up artist. Every single day they do something to someone, even small things where they print out pictures and put your face on it. They stole Jake's [who plays Evan] car once and moved it!

J-14: What was your favorite episode to film?
Amber: There's a funny episode where Fisher has a lot of Cyprus-Rhodes team spirit -- he's one of those guys who paints himself at a football game. Ashleigh is completely mortified by it. She thinks it's so dorky, but he's really hot, so she's torn between his really dorky side and his sexy side. I think it's cute, so I accept him for his weirdness. That was a fun episode.

When J-14 hung out with Greek's Amber Stevens, she was only on page 16 of Twilight! "I'm not that far, so I have a lot to go. It's a big thing! My friends just recently finished it, and they're like, 'It's awesome.' I bought the book before the movie came out -- it's just been sitting on my shelf. I haven't seen the movie because I wanted to read the book first, so I finally finished the other book I was reading, Something Blue."

Have you only read the books and not seen the movie yet? Or did your friends convince you to read the series? Let J-14 know what got you hooked on Twilight -- after all, Amber needs to know if she should be Team Rob or Team Jacob!

J-14 was psyched to meet up with Greek's Amber Stevens out in Los Angeles, and not just because we talked about her character, Ashley, or the awesome, bold clothes she gets to wear on the show -- we had some major girl talk about boys, too! And lucky for Greek fans, she gave us some good news about ZBZ's hasher, Fisher -- who Amber just happens to lock lips with on the show. "He'll stick around for awhile," Amber dishes. "He's very, very cute." Sweet! Stay tuned for an exclusive Q & A with Amber, but for now, check out this video she made just for J-14 readers! Greek airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC Family.
