Starting college can be a daunting experience, and your first day can often be the most daunting. But it doesn’t need to be! We’ve come up with some tips to make sure that your first day is as fun and as easy a transition into college life as possible.
Freaking out about what to wear? Check out these fashion tips to get your campus style right. The foremost being wear something that you’re comfortable in, but also something you feel you look good in.
- Invest in some classic pieces
Buy some basic denims like a pair of skinny jeans and bright colour tanks. Buy some of these signature pieces and work your outfit around them.
- Girly girl
To bring out the girly girl in you wear a lot of florals, colours, laces. Just remember, DON’T overdo it!
- The boho chic
A boho tan bag and flowey tops will bring out the glamour of boho fashion in your outfit.
- The trending crop top
You can wear your crop tops over a long tight-fitted tank top. This way you don’t have to show off your navel and can stay in sync with the trend.
- Beat the summer heat with flowy skirts.
Whether they are above the knee or below, skirts are in trend this season as they are easy to handle. Body-hugging tops tucked inside the skirt is a comfortable yet stylish way to attend the first day at college.
- Palazzo pants are in vogue.
These loosely-fit pants can be worn in any shade and print. However, be careful when wearing busy prints as you don’t want to commit a fashion faux pas on day one.
- It’s equally important to accessorize your outfit.
The Plain Jane of your college? Nah. Make sure to maintain a balance between not too less and not too much. Go for silver anklets, stone-studded neck pieces, floral or bright coloured cotton scarves which can also be used as funky headgear to get that chic look.
