WHAT TO WEAR: Back to School

Summer is ending and fall is fast approaching. That means it’s school time! Yes, that means hauling schoolbooks across campus and sitting in desks for what seems like endless hours, but there’s also the perks of reuniting with your best pals and meeting new people. So, why not do it all in style? Let’s cherish these last few weeks of summer with a more covered-up, fall-inspired look. The look this Fashionista sports is perfect for back to school because not only will it get you noticed, but you will also look classy and chic.

The maxi dress is perfect for school because the A-line silhouette cinched with a belt looks effortless, breezy and is of course super comfortable. The little extra details on her dress are always a plus, too. The frills add playfulness and ease to the look, which summer exudes: it also brings out the fall aspect of a covered, rustic feel.

Now, we can’t forget accessories. This Fashionista believes that if you don’t have at least a pair of earrings and a bracelet on, then you aren’t fully put together–I totally agree! Accessories add personality to a look. She added neutral colored bracelets with a little sparkle and some funky black and gold earrings in the shape of a flower. But to make this look put together, she paired the dress with some wedges. I love these shoes because they’re comfortable for walking around campus but they still look chic. Finishing it off, she went a little farther by adding a pop of color with these colorful sunglasses while pairing them with her favorite bright bag. These extra accessories give the outfit a little extra oomph against the more rustic color of the dress. Now that her outfit is on point, she can start school looking fabulous!

One Simple Change:  After a long week studying, you need some time with your girls. In order to change this outfit from day to night, a great dark wash denim jacket would be the perfect accessory to keep you warm out on the town with your best buds.
