I remember always feeling this sense of unbearable dread before the first day of school. Not knowing what to expect made me feel out of control. But the one thing I looked forward to without fail was planning my outfit. What would I wear to dazzle my friends and classmates this year...to show off the "new" me after summer had passed? Thinking back, it was pretty silly of me to be so concerned with that but it allowed me to gain some semblance of control so I rolled with it.
Today, I created three different looks to hopefully inspire you to take the new school year by storm!
The first look is an easygoing jeans and T-shirt combo, when you can't be bothered to sift through your closet. Pair your favorite ripped jeans and cropped tee for a comfortable but figure-flattering outfit. If your school has strict regulations, throw on a cool-toned flannel for subtle color and extra length! Throw on a playful backpack and your trusty sneakers and off you go!
The second look is for all the girly girls out there. I am all about comfort so I opted to mix a sleek, indigo/purple/blue tank with floral shorts. As much as I like wearing skirts, shorts will help you conquer the day without worrying about anyone looking up to see your hoo-hah. Jazz the whole outfit with blinging sandals and finish with a clean, white tote to balance everything.
The third look is a sporty chic, sweatshirt and leggings combo. Without fail, leggings are basically the better looking version of sweatpants. The adidas ones I chose have stripes on the side that help elongate the legs. Plus, it's a step up from plain black ones. If you're like me and you hate showing your crotch/butt, layer the sweatshirt with a longer tank top (I picked one that matches the color of the leggings and has a nice motivational quote). This way, you can choose to take the sweatshirt off if it gets too hot by the end of the school day and still look sporty chic! Amp up the casual look with metallic sandals, pearl studs, and a structured leather bucket bag. Boom. Done.
What are your go-to looks for school? I'd love to hear about it so leave it down below!
Bye for now,
Jenn
