Hello lovelies! August is here and whether we like it or not, going back to school next month is already haunting our thoughts. The most exciting thing for me about going back to school is not actually going back to school, but getting ready to go back to school. Meaning: shopping for new clothes and supplies! In these BACK2SCHOOL series posts, I'll be giving tips on creating casual but stylish school outfits, DIY ideas for cute school supplies and more. Hope you're as excited as I am!
With a few key basic items [and I made sure they were affordable!], I'm going to show you that you really don't need much to create outfit-variety for the entire week. I chose a basic striped tee with mid-length sleeves. I loved the simplicity of it and the cropped hemline. I find a great denim jean a must and opted for a skinny slit-knee version. And an item that can really create variety is definitely an oversized checked shirt! I also opted for a vintage-feel oversized denim jacket and a brown fake leather bag that is sturdy and big enough to use as a book bag.
Monday: You're super tired from your fun weekend and want to sleep in as much as possible before heading to class. That's why I chose for simple! Comfy but still well-put together.
Tuesday: Swap your simple top for a fun (check out the back on this one!) checked shirt, wrap a statement belt around the loops of your favorite pants and hop into some comfy hi-tops.
Wednesday: Do some serious time traveling back to the past era with this denim jacket and neon shoes. Unbutton the jack so that just a few hints of the top is revealed.
Thursday: Create an interesting look by wearing the checked shirt under the cropped top. Roll up the long sleeves and make a cute little knot in the front with the excess of the checked shirt. Complete this very feminine look with a high bun and this clip-in bows.
Friday: Prepare for a new weekend with this layered look! Instead of wearing a denim jacket in the most common way, switch it up a bit by wearing a checked shirt over your trusty jacket. Both unbuttoned ofcourse. It'll look like your shirt has some cool denim trimming. Go all out with a fun cap to match your fun personality!
I would love to know what your five essentials are for back-to-school outfits! And let me know what your favorite outfit was! :) <3
