Back To School: 05-31-2013

Most of us teens express ourselves through our style or the way we dress up; but this becomes really difficult especially for us students who attend schools which enforces strict dress codes. Then the big question is, can we still stay stylish without breaking the rules? The answer is a resounding YES! During my first year of college, choosing the right clothes to school became one of the hardest things I have to deal with everyday ( second only to school homework). It even takes me an hour just to think of the clothes I would wear for the day!! However, as time goes by I learned to stick with my personal style while waltzing around the boring dress codes.

Here's what I wore to school on my first day; the classic denim on denim look. All things denim will never go out of style.What I love about denim is its versatility which can match with anything inside your closet. For this look, I wore my black denim jeans from Mango and matched it with this washed denim jacket from Two Percent Shop. One of my style secret is I never wear denims of the same shade, just make sure one is darker than the other.

Now onto my accent... the florals. Florals definitely bring out the bohemian in me. I like how it perfectly matches with my denim over-all! The tiny flower print in my top from Bershka coincide well with the big flower prints in the bag which I got from Bench. Just to prove prints-on-print is still in season!

You know what they say: "The real fashion is in your shoes." You can make a fashion statement to school by just wearing simple flats with funky prints or short boots! So make sure to invest on it if you really want to stay stylish (and sassy) when on campus!
