As August is drawing to a close, people are looking at what to wear for the upcoming school year. There are many different types of fashions one can wear for the new year, but rocking a collegiate style will always be a success.
Many people assume a collegiate style needs to be preppy, but that isn’t the case anymore. It is easy to mix classic pieces with an updated twist. Standard pieces of the collegiate style include: white button downs, pleated skirts, knee high socks, athletic-inspired shoes. This season’s unexpected twist on the classic style is graphic sayings, bright colours and rebellious accents. It is easy to pair an oversized tee with a pair of jeans, or tuck a white button down into a pleated skirt and combine that look with combat boots.
It’s effortless to make the collegiate style your own this fall, and with many different clothing options, you can create your own look and be at the top of your class.
