It’s the most wonderful time of year for Fashionistas/os—back-to-school season! For trendsetters, it is the Super Bowl of shopping. Figuring out your “new look” for the new year, trying to find pieces that no one else will have on a campus of 20,000 undergrads, planning your first day of class outfit—all of these are major decisions that go into what to buy.
Another major factor for building your back-to-school wardrobe? Your closet size. Whether you will be living in a dorm or off-campus apartment, chances are your closet is going to be (to put it lightly) tiny. Instead of opting to turn your bedroom into a full walk-in closet and sleeping on the couch (we know you have thought about it), just be strategic with your back-to-school shopping.
Check out these 24 wardrobe essentials to ensure you are set for back-to-school (and can comfortably fit everything into your closet as well).
