How to wear collegiate
You don’t have to go the way of popped collars, cargo pants and roofies – frankly, those are only for frat parties.
Don’t over think it: just consider your personal style, don’t wear anything too baggy and ignore that persistent voice in your head that insists college means preppy – it doesn’t.
You just need to dress younger while still seeming mature. We show you how
Look one: By day
Shirt
A brightly checked cotton shirt is very casual and clean-cut. Pair it with the right jacket, and voila! College dude.
Jacket
Teaming a ribbed jacket with your shirt and dark jeans creates a sophisticated look.
Jeans
It’s all about colour and fit here – consider a well-worn but slim-fitting pair.
Sneakers
High-tops are the perfect alternative to leather flip-fl ops.
Look two: By night
Shirt
Your office shirt can easily transform for an evening out for drinks or dinner. Keep it simple and blue.
Jacket
A formal jacket goes well with an office shirt offset by a smart pair of jeans.
Jeans
White denim is tough to wear, so choose wisely and wear it with confidence.
Shoes
Wrap things up with a pair of muted sneakers – it’s cool and effortless.
