The Back To School Essentials For The Fairfield Girl

Although we may not all want to accept it, summer is coming to a close. How did it go by so fast? While we are soaking in the final few weeks of summer, it is time to start thinking about back to school shopping! At least if we have to go back to school, we can get a few nice things to make it easier! Fairfield girls are known for being stylish and having specific, similar items. So there are some essentials that every Fairfield girl needs for this season.

1. Lilly Pulitzer Agenda

If you go to Club Dimenna, you are bound to see dozens of these! It is perfect for keeping track of assignments, long term projects and other miscellaneous notes you will have to put down somewhere quickly over the school year.

2. An ID Case

This is important for keeping track of that all important Stag Card. In an effort to save money by not losing your Stag Card, an ID Case is the way to go. Vera Bradley makes super cute ones too.

3. A Yoga Mat

Although it may seem unconventional, you will be surprised how much use you get from a yoga mat. For those days you don't want to go to the gym or need a little relaxation through meditation, a yoga mat is the perfect solution.

4. Rain Boots

Any returning Stag will know how much of an essential these are. They will help you trudge all over campus for classes in the rain, sleet and even snow.

5. A Tumbler

These are a must for bringing coffee to class or those Point Days filled with sunshine in the fall semester. A must for all Fairfield girls.

6. A Cute Beach Towel

Speaking of Point Days, one of the best things about Fairfield University is being able to go to the beach during the warm weather days. Make sure you bring a towel to soak up those last few rays of sunshine.

7. A Fresh Pair Of Sunnies

Sunglasses are a must for walking around campus, going to the beach and just in life in general. Treat yourself to a nice, fresh pair for the new school year.

8. Colored Pens

These are a staple for Fairfield students. It is a quick and easy way to keep notes organized.

9. A New Pair of Sneakers


Now that the new Rec Plex is almost done, it is the perfect reason to go to the gym more. This obviously calls for a new pair of sneakers to use in all of your successful (or not so successful) gym trips.

10. Water Bottle


These are definitely a must for Fairfield University students in all aspects of life. It is much more economically friendly than buying cases of water and there are so many cute types of water bottles these days.

12. A New Backpack

Always a back to school must!

13. A Portable Phone Charger


Although it may not seem like a necessity, it will come in very handy when you're not by a phone charger for many hours.

14. An Umbrella


This is another rain essential at Fairfield. Don't be caught in a downpour without yours.

15. A Floppy Hat

These are perfect for the incoming fall weather and super fashion forward.

16. Blanket Scarves

Blanket scarves are great for the in between weather of fall and winter. These are well-loved by Fairfield girls.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
