As you prepare for a collegiate fall, you will find yourself searching for items that fit a college style. Check out these fabulous items that are must-haves on any college campus!
1. Leggings
College girls across the country are wearing leggings on a daily basis. They come in many different colors, thus making them versatile. They can be worn with a tunic top or a large t-shirt – either look is a hit on campus!
2. Trench Coat
Every girl needs a trench. Often, weather can be sporadic and you won’t have time to make it to your dorm or apartment to grab your rain coat. A trench can be worn rain or shine, which means you don’t have to worry about making a fashion faux pas!
Pullover sweaters are wonderful for colder evenings. Most dorms don’t turn on their heat until close to Thanksgiving, which will leave you thankful for your trusty sweater. You can also wear it with a pair of leggings to the library for a cute (and comfortable) study outfit.
Chambray is a favorite of designers this season. The soft denim look yields a casual, comfortable feel without being grungy. If you follow fashion blogs, you will notice chambray being worn in all different combinations. Chambray can be worn alone, under a sweater, cardigan or a button-down. Don’t be afraid to get creative with your outfit! Try visiting the blog Atlantic-Pacific for some inspiration.
5. Ballet Flats
You will be so thankful for owning a good, neutral pair of ballet flats. They can be worn with just about anything and dress up any outfit. Whether worn with skinny jeans or a sundress, they will keep your feet comfortable during long days on campus.
6. Skinny Jeans
As an item, which originally started as a trend, girls across America are thankful they have become a staple in today’s fashion world. They can be worn with ballet flats, sandals, boots, etc. Skinny jeans do a great job of showing off your figure and are also easy to pair with any style of top. They can be thrown on with a sweatshirt when you’re running late, or worn with a tunic for a softer feel.
7. Cardigan
Universities tend to keep classrooms cold to help students focus. Cardigans don’t take up a lot of space in your backpack, will keep you warm and are a cute accessory to any ensemble.
8. Scarves
Scarves are a hot item this season. Pair it with your favorite jeans and a casual tee and you’ve got yourself a comfortable outfit that looks incredible!
