subject: Student Style Starters For College [print this page] The starting day of college can be both exhilarating and a little nerve wracking. Not only do you have to find all of your classes in a sea of new faces, but also you need to come prepared looking good. You may meet your new best friend or boyfriend this year! Don't go school shopping until you have gone to class though.
You may have been one of the best-dressed divas in your high school, but this is college and things change. Each college boasts it's very own unique unwritten fashion laws. If you learn these rules early it can save you from embarrassment in the future.
Once you have been at your university long enough to understand the unwritten rules of fashion as they are at your specific school, you can finally go school shopping. You will be able to wear what you want and what you see fit best as to how you want to fit in. You will be able to control your own image.
There are a few items that can be purchased before school starts. These are items that are used by ninety percent of college kids. One of these items is a light jacket. The best look for girls is a cotton or knit button down sweater in a color that can be worn with most outfits.
Bear paw boots are also great go to items for every student. These sheepskin boots are wonderful when you need to relax and also walk from building to building. Every girl in college that knows a thing or two about fashion owns a pair.
Plain white blouses can also be picked up before class starts. Because plain white blouses can be paired with slacks, shorts, skirts and jeans, these will work for anything. They look very good with a skirt and brown Bear paw boots.
If there is no choice but to go school shopping before you get a chance to attend classes and get a look at the fashion of your peers, don't buy anything too trendy. You can add your own style to a plain outfit with accessories that you can get after you have been in class like a cool watch or Bear paw boots.
If you were a fashion queen in high school, you can be again. And if you weren't you have another chance to be in college.
