The first few weeks of college are hard for everyone for different reasons, but few anticipate how difficult it can be to navigate their school’s unspoken dress code. Everyone goes through regrettable fashion phases at one point or another.
Whether you hopped on a fleeting trend that quickly fled the scene, or you jumped the gun on reviving a past decade’s fashion before it came back into style, we’ve all been there.
The freshman uniform alludes to that regretful freshman fashion phrase one goes through when trying to find their personal style within their school’s social scene.
Whether you’re a freshman, a senior or anywhere in between, here are some trendy, yet timeless pieces to help you avoid the “freshman uniform” on your night out in Happy Valley.
Elevated Tanks
A simple white tank top is a go-to staple to any going out fit. That said, it can feel a little underwhelming. Invest in a few elevated tanks with details that feel more personal to your style! A simple embroidery, lace trim or button detail will elevate your outfit, while still ensuring it remains simple and timeless. Pair this tank with your go-to blue jeans and a kitten heel and get ready to step out in style.

Asymmetrical Tops
If you’re going for a chic and timeless look with a fun flair, an asymmetrical top is the way to go. In an era where boho-chic and vintage Isabel Marant are making a big comeback, asymmetrical tops are the hot style to add to your closet this semester. No matter the color, material or design, an asymmetrical top will ensure your outfit stands out on your night out!

Halter Neck Tops
Halter necks are a sophisticated yet stylish approach to choosing a frat fit. Whether you prefer a solid-colored classic top or a loud polka-dot pattern, the halter neck is a necessity in any college wardrobe. Halter tops are timeless, yet modern and here to stay.

Neck Scarf Tops
Slightly teetering on the trendier side of things, neck scarfs are a simple way to elevate an otherwise boring tube top. This versatile top can be styled so many different ways, making it a go to grab in any college kid’s closet.
