ACE BACK TO SCHOOL

Heading back to school? Whether you’re a first time fresher or wise third year, get your term time wardrobe on lock with these essential pieces you need to ace your new semester style. This is your lesson in back to school cool 101.

Dresses you can wear day or night

The key to surviving uni is getting the most out of your cash flow (read student loan). Get way more bang for your student buck out of your style game for buying smart and opting for versatile dresses you can wear for both day and night with simple shoe and accessory changes.

Denim forever

A fool proof classic, denim is your go-to no matter what the season. Dress up with heels and a bodysuit for night, or team with a hella good tee for day. Make your denim new season appropes by buying into embroidered detailing or distressed styles. We’re in a denim daze and we ain’t mad about it.

Buy a bomber

Bombers are cool AF but you don’t need us to tell you that. This key piece has been around all season and is set to carry on way into the next. From pretty floral applique styles to sportsluxe pieces, throw a bomber on with your jeans and a tee for lectures, or wear it over any dress to add a cooler edge to your going out look.

Bulk out your basics

Every fash savvy girl knows a good size portion of your wardrobe should be made up of easily interchangeable basics right? Yeezy vibes are hella cool right now so get inspired with the neutral hued pieces you can wear over and over, come rain or shine, whatever the season, and easily dress up or down.

Go for a luxe long line

From sleek satin styles, to oversized denim, long line jackets work as being a statement enough piece to take an otherwise basic outfit to the next level. Woke up too late to carefully consider your #OOTD? Throw on a long line jacket and edge out the simplest day looks with this blogger fave.

Buy a slip dress

A key piece for this season and next as well as an easy layering piece to ensure you get way more cost per wear. Nod to the 90’s and layer a slip dress over a basic tee and team with chunky platform trainers, or wear alone as a killer going out dress with some thigh high boots and an essential choker.

Cool kicks are the one

Save your feet and buy into some oh so cool kicks. Trainers have been seen and worn with everything from the street style set so take note from the fashion elite. This way you can run to your lectures in style when you’ve overslept from too many all nighters and endless freshers week fun you just had to attend.
