Back to School with M-L #4

          Hey friends!
We're on our forth post on our back to school series! What will the fourth post be..? Exciting, isn't it? Drum roll please! OUTFIT IDEAS!!! Yaaayy, hugs all around! Yes, let's brainstorm and inspire! Let's begin!





If you are leaning towards the girly side, wear florals! Not only does it add a feminine taste, it also adds color and pattern to your outfit which is always a thumbs up. Florals with a skirt can also never go wrong. But if you feel more comfortable with pants, wear them! I see flowers with denim, so maybe a denim skirt, shorts or pair of jeans, or a denim jacket. I don't suggest wearing florals with other patterned item of clothing. It will most probably clash together and we don't want that! Instead, try one item that is patterned and the rest of your outfit can be solid colors. If you don't want to wear floral clothes, a simple skirt with a cute top and flats work magnificently. Adding pink to your outfit adds for a sweeter look. As for accessories, little, simple but cute jewellery work! Pearls, studs, just basic little things that will amplify your outfit. Thinner belts are very stylish, especially those braided leather belts. Pastel colored scarves are super cute and matches the girly look.

If you are leaning more on the edgy side, there's no problem with actually being edgy, so long as you're not breaking your school's dress code. If it represents you as who you are and you feel comfortable in it, go for it! When I think edgy, I think metal, leather, dark clothing. That's just how I see it in my mind. One of my friends is edgy like that and I think she has a good sense of style. I usually see edgy girls wearing maroon coloured slim pants with a black top or jacket. I think that is very stylish. Black boots look awesome with anything at all and definitely a leather jacket if you want that edgy look. Wearing large, noticeable earrings look super cool. Big flashy bracelets are a plus too! Wearing thick belts with studs on them will be awesome with your outfit. Don't forget to have that "rock out!" attitude. ;)

If you are more of the casual type, like me, basically your key word here is comfort. A basic top, bottom, sneakers, a few simple accessories and you are good to go. There isn't much to say here but to be comfortable. I am the casual type, so the least I can say is what I usually wear. I like to wear
sweaters and jeans. I don't go for patterns as long as I really like the item of clothing. I go for simple accessories like a one lace bracelet and necklace, a basic pair of earrings... And HOODIES! I don't have that many but I'm trying to have a collection. Hoodies go with anything and they make you warmer during the cold days.

If you're looking towards the preppy side, collars and cardigans are a must! I see a preppy outfit with white knee high socks. It reminds me of some of those private school uniforms. As for bottoms, I would opt for loose skirts. Burgundy colored, grey or black, navy. If it's too cold on the first day of school, wear tights underneath to keep you warm. Another way to keep yourself warm is if you put a collared shirt underneath a sweater. I love that style and I think it looks really cute and preppy. Still looking on the cold day possibility, wear boots. Not those Uggs though. Try going with brown leather boots. If it's rather a sunny hot day, wear flats or Toms or even Converse shoes if you want! Though for the preppy look, Toms or flats look more appropriate for your outfit.




Voila! These were a few outfit brainstorms for your first day of school! I hope you can get inspired and motivated for your back to school outfit! Don't forget, it's all about representing you as a person. If you feel comfortable with what you're wearing, there's nothing stopping you. Of course, if you want to change your look, and get out of your comfort zone, you can do that by all means! It's your choice!

Have fun picking out an outfit!

Keep Smiling,
M-L
