2. Comfy and Cool

Just because jeans and a t-shirt are your go-to look doesn’t mean that you can’t show off some serious style on the first day. This graphic tee from Wildfox adds some major pizazz to this outfit and and these Cotton On jeans are, as Lizzie McGuire might say, what dreams are made of. These metallic Dr. Martens are a style jackpot for a girl who’s not in the mood to compromise fashion for comfort. . .or the other way around. Pair this look with a simple choker and cool pair of earrings from Boohoo and your first day outfit will definitely check both the comfy and cool boxes.

This outfit would even make Blair Waldorf proud, and, I mean, what else could you really ask for? The combination of this white blouse and pink bow pin from For Love and Lemons looks like its pulled straight from Blair’s closet and was pretty much made to be paired with this black skirt. These eyelet socks from Modcloth and ankle strap heels from Boohoo come together in preppy perfection for this look. And of course, in true Blair style, this outfit had to be topped off with a signature headband like this one from ASOS.

Okay, so if you’ve been reading this post thinking “yeah Christy, those outfits are cool and all, but I’m all about the sportswear here,” then this last look is for you.

This first day of school looks pairs a trendy and exciting take on the classic sporty t from Puma with some extra comfy Under Armor joggers. And OMG those sneakers from New Balance are the perfect pair to start of the school year in sporty style. You’ll be leaps and bounds ahead of the sporty school fashion game with this look.
