Finals season is upon us and let’s face it, rolling out of bed in the same clothes you wore yesterday isn’t as uncommon as you had hoped it would be. As rainy April took over most of the sunny days we had hoped for, it’s easy to get the finals blues and not see them fade until May has freed of us all responsibilities. If you’ve ever been to Iowa than you know that the weather is as emotional as a teenage girl, so it’s always necessary to pack layers wherever you go.
For this finals week, it’s a must to bring some type of jacket or sweatshirt because the lecture halls will all be blasting the A.C. In this look, the layer of choice is a black-fringed poncho that can go over anything. Layer it over a black long sleeve T-shirt for extra warmth during testing season.
I know you only want to wear your comfiest pants during finals, but as I always say: dress well to test well, and it has gotten me through the toughest of finals. These Citizens of Humanity Jeans can go for the cute and casual look that you want when you’re sitting in class. The light wash can offset the black top she’s wearing to brighten it up a little bit during the dreary weather.
Throw on the glasses instead of your contacts this time, because everyone knows that means no make-up. It also acts as a cute accessory and if you’re me, it usually makes me feel smarter. Accessories are a must with such a simple outfit so feel free to mix and match. Any long necklace with colorful bracelets will do.
One Simple Change: You can take this look from one season to the next for when the weather really is too cold. You can pair it with booties to keep your toes warm.
