WHAT TO WEAR: Back to School

It’s that time of year again: back to school. With the start of a brand new year and a new round of classes come cooler weather and fall fashion. So what do you wear for your first few weeks back?

One of the hardest parts about getting ready for class is picking out the perfect outfit to impress classmates, but this Fashionista knows how to throw together an easy outfit for that first Monday morning trek across campus. She focuses on basic pieces, but when put together, they make an edgy fall outfit.

Sweaters are a staple for fall. This Fashionista rocks a high neck sweater in the ever-trending burgundy color. Burgundy is such an on-trend color for fall that it could almost be used as a neutral in a lot of outfits. She kept with the trendy color for fall by matching some ankle booties, nail polish and a liquid lipstick to her sweater. The monochromatic feel pulls the whole look together and keeps her looking polished and chic for classes.

Since the sweater is cropped, she chose to pair it with some high-waisted jeans. The black distressed denim really adds an edge to the look and keeps the basics interesting. Her matching black backpack is the perfect accessory for carrying all her books to class and for keeping essentials on hand, such as her lipstick for touch-ups throughout the day.

The one standout piece in this outfit is her blue mirrored sunglasses. These really add an unexpected pop of color to the look but don’t clash with the rest of her ensemble. All together, this Fashionista has perfected the back to school look.
