2012 campus fashion is all about bright colors, quirky combs and making a personal style statement. This year’s collegiate cuties are having a fashion bonanza with interesting photo print dresses, feminized menswear and delightful retro throwbacks. Campus fashion is constantly changing and the only real constant is personality. Most college women are finding their own personal style as well as the confidence to rock it. As usual, the best accessory to any outfit is confidence; this is what makes campus style so refreshing, the dedication to personal expression. If you’re having trouble finding your collegiate fashion niche, never fear, here are a few campus fashion basics that every girl needs.
The Maxi Dress- This campus style staple is perfect for running to class, late night study groups and even a date with that cute guy you’ve been eying in English class. With the proper accessories and accents, the maxi dress lends its self to any college activity setting.
Leggings- Have multiple pairs of legging, in different colors, patterns, prints and textures. Leggings are the go-to item if you’re running late to class and they are fashionable in both winter and summer time. Best of all, they don’t take up to much of your precious dorm room closet space.
Sundresses- This flirty summer staple is a must have for balmy summer night house parties, outdoor music festivals and of course date night. Having a few of these flouncy, girly dresses will defiantly come in handy when you’re in a fashion pickle.
Ballet Flats- You’ll find these shoes will get a lot of use in campus life. Make sure you own a black pair, a light colored pair and a pair with some flourish or embellishment. This will ensure no matter where you need to go, you’ll have a pair of ballet flats to match any outfit.
Boho Tops- Flouncy boho tops work well with jeans, skirts, leggings and shorts. They add more interest to your outfit than a plain old tee shirt and allowing you to play with different textures and patterns. Creating a multi-faceted wardrobe to suite any college fashion needs.
