Hello, hello!
A week or so ago, I did a poll on what future content you all would like to see on my blog. Two answers that I thought would be great additions and favored by many of my readers were: what to wear to class + workwear. With classes starting back this week and next week I shot a casual look that would be ideal for the classroom and today I am sharing it with you. Let’s be honest when I was in college I wore norts, a huge Kappa Delta tee and nikes. When I had plans after class I would throw on a t-shirt dress and my Tory Burch millers. All that to say, I know that most days you will opt for leggings and tennis shoes/birks because that is easy + practical. So, I decided to keep it realistic but also show that you can look put together while remaining comfortable.
I think the key for this outfit, that adds interest, is the snake-print leggings. Yes, I know, these printed leggings are not for everyone but they elevate the look especially in comparison to what a basic, black pair of leggings would do. There are tons of patterns + colors of leggings out there so have fun with it. Except stay away from the geo tribal prints please– let’s keep those in 2012. Furthermore, get a great pair of causal kicks that are not your typical running shoe. I love the pair of Adidas Gazelles I am wearing because they are neutral and go with everything. They also look like I tried a little bit versus just wearing my running shoes.
Lastly, I know wearing makeup or fixing your hair is tedious and is not going to happen everyday, especially for morning classes. I wore a baseball cap three days a week and only wore mascara & foundation but it covered all of the bases for me. You just have to find your quick and simple morning routine that achieves the look you are going for and stick with it. I am not a morning person whatsoever so whatever helped me catch more Z’s I was all about. I planned my outfit the night before so it helped me save time in the mornings. For makeup I would put on my Dr. Jart color correcting cream and maybe a little bronzer if I was feeling it. Lastly, I would swipe on some mascara grab a granola bar + water then head out the door.
I really liked planning my outfit and coordinating this post so let me know in the comments below if you would like to see more “What To Wear To Class,” options and I will happily plan more. I hope everyone has a great semester and remembers just how much of a girl boss you are every. single. day.
*My exact pair of leggings are sold out but, I am including a few of my picks that would be great options if you are looking to add to you closet!
Thanks for reading!
