TUESDAY

        And here we are! Day two! You've ripped the bandaid off, now it's time to get comfortable and start meeting new people.

Here is my Tuesday Look:

     Today you want something that is put together, and won't kill your feet when you book it to your second class. You want to feel put together, but still casual and approachable. 

     What I love about this white polo with the black stripes is how simple it is to style and throw on. You don't even have to think about it. But to make it more eye-catching, you gotta add the details. The simplicity of the shirt can be taken advantage of by adding checkered slip-on Vans along with a punctured belt and distressed Mom Jeans. Subtle H&M hoop earrings can we swapped out for something more daring, like my favourite Brandy Melville star hoop earrings, or a geometric style.

T-Shirt: Thrifted

Jeans: American Eagle

Sneakers: Vans

Belt: Thrifted

MONDAY

        As shitty as it is, September has finally come around and that means all students are back to school. Whether it's university, college, or high school, there are always anxieties going back to class. Whether it's "Will I know anyone in my lectures?" or "Attendance will count for the how much of the final grade!?" to "How the hell am I gonna figure out where all my classes are?", believe it or not, we're all thinking the same things. 

        I know a huge source of anxiety for me is first impressions. I want to be looking cute for tutorials, but also comfortable. I want to feel confident enough to start conversations, and not blend into the crowd (getting your profs and TA's to notice you in the beginning of the semester is a huge advantage). 

        So, I thought I would make a "2018 First Week of School Look Book" and post Monday to Friday, sharing an outfit for each day of the week. These looks all serve a purpose, and all have their benefits. If there's anything with the coming looks that don't work with you school's dress code or not in your comfort level, feel free to tweak them as you see fit! 

Here is my Monday Look:

        I wanted to style something that was not only bold and eye-catching, but also super comfortable so you weren't nervously tugging and pulling of seams and necklines throughout the first day.

        This button-up is an old thrifted find of mine that by a vintage brand called Koret City Blues. I decided to pair it simply with a pair of black shorts underneath (because no one is trying to flash everyone on the first day of classes), with my new Little Burgundy Women's Clara Boot in Black. Modest H&M silver hoop earrings for a little bit of accessorization, and of course those overpriced textbooks to complete the look. 

Button-Up: Koret City Blues

Boots: Little Burgundy

Earrings: H&M
