Moving down South isn't just a temperature change but a lifestyle change. Things are said differently, worn differently, and viewed differently. The accents are thick, the food delicious, and the hospitality out of this world. If you find someone living in the South not following these trends, they're not a true southerner.

Outfits:

1. Oversized T-Shirts

Buying shirts two sizes too big is just as much a fashion statement as it is comfortable.

2. Norts

Not only are Nike shorts super popular down south, but they also have earned the fancy nickname, "norts."

3. Patagonia

You are not a true southerner if you don't own at least one article of Patagonia clothing.

4. Chacos

Nobody how many shoes a girl owns, these make an appearance 9% of the time.

Southern Slang:

1. "Y'all"

Or, even worse, "all y'all."

2. "Coke"

It is not "pop." It is not "soda." It is "Coke." Even Fanta is to be called this.

3. "Buggy"

If you ask for a shopping cart, expect a weird look of confusion.

4. "Sweetie"

"Sweetie" isn't just a term said by grandparents. It can be heard from waitresses and even complete strangers.

5. "Yes Sir"

The south is known for their manners and this phrase is a sign of respect.

Accessories

1. Enos

If you're on a college campus and don't see thousands of these hanging in the trees, something is wrong.

2. KAVU

Essentially a mini backpack, but definitely a necessity.

3. Stickers on EVERYTHING

Laptops are not complete without a dozen stickers.

4. Nalgene Water Bottles

Covered in stickers, of course.

Food:

1. Grits

The north just can't make them like the south can.

2. Fried Okra

Vegetables can be tasty.

3. Sweet Tea

Tastes even better in a Mason Jar.
