WHAT TO WEAR: Back to School

February 1st, 2017 at 2:00am

Sad as it may be that the holidays are over, I’m kind of glad to be back in school and busy. The first day is always my favorite, when you get to see all of your friends again and start getting used to your new schedule. For that occasion, it’s always nice to look your best without making it seem like you tried too hard. A nice, casual ensemble would suffice and when in doubt, just go for the good ol’ pair of jeans and T-shirt—never fails!

This Fashionista plays this out perfectly in her plaid blouse with a flirty cut-out at the shoulders and a comfortable pair of black jeans that is folded at the seams to show off her cool pair of white high-top sneakers. She kept her makeup and accessories very minimal and she looks quite effortless, casual, and ready for a busy day of classes.

As the semester goes on and the work load from school starts to pile up, stressing us out, urge to opt our fashionable pair of jeans for a pair of sweatpants starts to kick in, and one way that I’ve learnt to resist that unstylish itch is to go for basics! It’s just as easy to put on a pair of comfy jeans and a nice basic T-shirt as it is to wear a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie (probably even easier). So whenever you’re in a rush and you have no time to make a full-on fashion decision, just throw on a nice pair of jeans and a comfortable T-shirt and head on out while still retaining your fashionable reputation!
