1. Plain White Tee

This is the basic that everyone needs at least one of. This shirt is a staple for any wardrobe.

2. A Good Pair of Jeans

A solid pair of jeans can last for a couple of years, at least. Try to look for investment jeans that may seem pricier at first, but will actually save you money in the long run.

3. A Warm Winter Coat

Whether you are walking across campus or just walking out to your car, a warm coat will save your life.

4. Plain Black Leggings

Leggings have quickly become a staple in my wardrobe, and I'm sure they are in yours, too. Instead of buying the cheap $5 leggings at Forever 21, invest in a sturdier pair that will last for longer.

5. A Simple Professional Outfit

You never know when you may be asked to do something for a class that has you scrambling to look put together. Stick to clean lines with black pants, a white button-up, and a black blazer.

6. A Cozy Cardigan

You could bring a blanket with you to class, but you might get some weird looks. Instead, wear a cozy cardigan that will leave you feeling like you never left your bed.

7. A Baseball Cap

Let's face it: at least once over the semester, you will have a bad hair day. Find a cute pop of color that will draw attention to your hat, not your day-old hair.

8. A Sturdy Pair of Boots

A nice pair of boots can last you for a long time. Find boots in neutral colors, like tan or black, that you can pair with any number of outfits.

9. A Comfortable Pair of Sneakers

A comfortable pair of sneakers could save you after a day of classes. I recommend looking for shoes in white or black so you can mix and match as much as you'd like.
