The attire of university life

This is a generalised list of outfits to bring to university and how and when to style or whip them out of your wardrobe. You are entitled to wear whatever you want and to feel comfortable in anything you want.

I would say the essentials you need are:

• 2 pairs of jeans

• 3-4 pairs of joggers

• 3 pairs of leggings

• 1 pair of shorts

• 10 pjs

• 10 jumpers/hoodies

• 2 coats

• Lots of socks and underwear

• Gymwear

• Skirts

• Dresses

I do not wear skirts and dresses so I don't know how many to bring, but it is up to you.

Top Tip: After a month or two of being at university, once you go home, take home all the clothes you haven't worn since the start of university as I am sure you will not wear them ever.

I am going to add photos and links to where I got my outfits from down below:

I bought these leggings while at university. These are from Boohoo and the original price is £12 for 2. They are super comfy, but they do bobble easily. I use these for day-to-day living and lectures just to be cosy.

I bought this catsuit whilst at university as I had one previously from Shein however it didn't fit properly and I didn't like the material. The only problem with this is the zipper is so thin that it feels like it will break when trying to zip it up. I wear a pink sports bra underneath it which shows as I don't zip the catsuit up. The original price is £25. https://www.prettylittlething.com/prettylittething-black-embroidered-zip-front-catsuit.html

This set is from Boohoo, I mostly use the jumper more than the shorts and cropped top. However, this will go to more use during the summertime. The pink jumper is oversized and slouchy and very cosy to be in. I pair it with black leggings or joggers or just when chilling in my pyjamas. The original price is £38.00

This little crop top is from H&M, it is tiny but great for lounging around in. I normally pair it with joggers and an oversized hoodie or jumper. The original price is £2.99 https://www2.hm.com/en_gb/productpage.1031511003.html

I bought these jogging bottoms from Amazon as they were black and warm and went with everything. These are £13.80

These are only some of the items I would wear, but bring what you want and then after the first term when you go home take all the items of clothing you did not wear.

Quote of the blog:

This quote is perfect for this blog because no matter what anyone wears at university they should feel confident. University is not judgemental at all, I feel everyone understands that everyone has their unique style and we just accept it is not our cup of tea and move on.
