FRESHERS WEEK 'FITS MADE EASY

Freshers Week is finally upon us – instead of worrying about your outfit rotation for your introductory class, mid-week 9am lecture, *several* parties and other core parts of the uni experience, we’ve done the hard work for you by curating the must-have pieces. Whether you’re a returning student or a fresh face on campus, a clean look sets the tone right for the year. Read on for some first-class looks.

AKA your first-impression look. When the awkward icebreaker activity comes about, be sure to make your mark in a look that’s polished but stays casual. Our winning combo? A slightly y2k top + oversized jeans. 

September weather isn’t anything to scoff at, so pack a basic heavyweight hoodie or cosy up in a bright knit for some prep points. Feeling ambitious? Layer up in *both* for a workwear meets grandpa-core moment.

When that dreaded 9am’s on the timetable, you’ll definitely be too tired to pick a perfect ‘fit – let an old-school track jacket and joggers duo be your new go-to. As for the Freshers parties, a denim co-ord will score you full marks in the fashion game.

We know you’re planning to live in those trusty 530s, but new beginnings call for new shoes. Fresh silhouettes are what this season’s all about – think the just-dropped New Balance RC42s and platform Timberlands that'll elevate your look (literally.)

A supersized tote that carries everything from your laptop to your gym gear is essential – uni life is busy. If you prefer making a statement (or you're having a bad hair day), turn heads in a bold patterned headscarf.
