The college year is practically upon us and so it is time to purchase all of those essential items... for your new college wardrobe.
After opening your very own student bank account (newbies take note: if you open and use an account with KBC before the end of October you'll receive €100 - more details
here) it is time to hit the shops. Here are the ten things you NEED to call your own:
1. Hoodie
Everyone knows that tight-fitting clothing after a night out isn’t going to happen… This is where the trusty over-sized, soft hoodie comes in.
A hoodie also becomes acceptable study wear during exam time; you’ll be too busy cramming to care about outfit choices.
2. Little Black Dress
The staple item in every lady’s wardrobe is also a MUST HAVE in college. No one has ever had a bad night in their little black dress.
Handy tip – with a new necklace no one will even know it is the same dress!
3. Favourite Trackies
This one explains itself, we don’t know anyone who gets into their Sunday Best for a day spent lounging on the couch, eating and watching soaps.
4. Fluffy Socks
After a good night out in your new favourite heels, your feet need some TLC and fluffy socks are a necessity.
5. Onesie
It is an essential item for a duvet day. Cosy, comfy and a much needed cotton hug.
6. Giant Scarf
Perfect for hiding the dreaded peeling tan. Pop one in your handbag and save yourself some serious hassle every morning.
7. Hat
A hat to hide all those bad hair days when you’ve slept in. (Depending on your hat choice you can even pretend to be fashionable).
8. Tights
Quite possibly the greatest clothing item ever. Tights mean you can ditch the razor, forget about streaky tan and be party ready in minutes. Always pop a spare pair in your bag, (there’s always that one ladder).
9. Jeans
Jeans are quite simply the handiest piece of clothing ever. We’ll have a pair in every colour. Go comfy with a pair of converse by day; go classy with a pair of heels by night. Sorted!
10. Bags Of Style
A moderate sized bag for college is a must-have. A satchel is ideal because you can fit all of your essential items, including books, refill pad, laptop and most importantly it is still very much on trend.
