Having cute but simple basics on hand is every busy gal’s dream. Between the early mornings and late-night study sessions, putting together a new outfit combo every morning isn’t for the faint of heart. But PSA: There’s nothing wrong with being an outfit repeater–especially when they consist of the kind of wardrobe staples you won’t mind wearing more than once a week. Read on for the five basics you need to snag ASAP.
Wide-Legged Jeans
A simple pair of jeans is the key to feeling put together when you’re feeling tired in the morning—and a wide-leg cut gives them the perfect trendy edge. For your basics wardrobe, snag them in blue, black or white. The best part is that they match any–and we mean *any*–top from your wardrobe. Pair them with a tank top or a baggy concert tee plus cute platform sneaks. Easy!
Neutral Tees
Whether you’re a baby tee or boyfriend shirt girlie, have some tees in neutral colors readily available. (Think white, black, navy blue or grey.) While we love tanks and long sleeves, T-shirts are more reliable for those AC’ed classrooms. (Still cold? Zip up a hoodie to keep warm.)
Jean Skirt
Jean skirts are so back! Pair a simple light-wash denim skirt with your fave top (we like a sweater or funky jacket), then accessories with knee-high boots or flats.
Sweatpants
Let’s be real–we all want to feel cozy at school. That’s why keeping it comfy with a simple pair of sweats can do just the trick. And after sitting in the same seat for hours…we could all use the extra cushion. Snag a matching set to look put-together (while still feeling like you’re in your PJs).
Sweatshirt/Crewneck
Throw on your go-to sweatshirt when those stressful mornings need *maximum* relaxation. It adds a baggy and relaxed vibe to your school fits. A pair of sweatshorts, leggings or baggy jeans will complete this outfit perfectly. (Pro tip: Want to leave your hair down instead of in a slickback? Opt for a crewneck instead!)
