What better way to dress the part than with sweaters of various sorts! I love oversize cardigans especially as transitional pieces to layer into the colder seasons. This one by Madewell is a great earth tone color and the perfect length as well.
Go a little more nautical with this blue and white cardi or a shorter cropped style!
This Rugby by Ralph Lauren sweater is the picture of private school:
Another great way to rock a sweater is to add a sweater vest over a colored shirt, polo, dress, or tighter fit sweater.
Another school girl staple is the iconic blazer. Madewell has so many options this season, like this classic black boyfriend blazer or a more casual look with this grey jersey version:
One of my must-haves right now is a navy blue blazer, boyfriend or cropped it doesn’t matter I just need one!
My best friend and I were shopping last weekend at Forever 21 and we saw this Harvard Dad sweatshirt and both really loved it, even though neither of us ever went to Harvard we thought it may be fun to pretend we did!
Now what will you carry your belongings in while walking those busy halls in between classes along with all your books? My favorite designer, Marc Jacobs has a great option with this tan turnlock bag.
Alexander Wang has also been designing AMAZING bags, I just wish I could afford one! This olive colored leather duffel could fit all your personal necessities along with school supplies all in one!
Let Them Eat Cake makes and adorable vegan handbag that is on my wish list.
Oxfords in all heights and colors are so HOTT right now! I recommend one in a heel/bootie style and a pair of flats. These suede oxford pumps by Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent are great for work, a casual day, and even a dressier affair.
Or choose a more masculine yet feminine take and go for the more traditional version with these styles:
No prepster would be complete without a pair of chino or khaki colored pants or capris. I like this skinny chino by J Brand or this pleated DKNY pant!
