It’s all too easy for college students to fall into less than ideal habits — especially when going out two or three nights a week. An unfortunate side effect of these habits is something best described as ‘The Hangover Uniform,’ a mismatched sweatshirt and sweatpants combo grabbed off the floor while rushing to make that 8 a.m. lecture. Needless to say, this outfit sets you far from fashionable. Not to worry — these effortless alternatives to The Hangover Uniform will keep you runway-ready even when those rough mornings get the best (or worst) of you.
Sweater Tee’s
An underrated staple in any closet is a sweater tee, especially during the fall season. This elevated basic is the perfect alternative to the baggy sweatshirt on your bedroom floor. Pair it with matching sweats or shorts, and you’ve got an outfit that feels comfy cozy while still looking put together. Whether you love a sharp collar moment or a soft, fuzzy quarter button style, sweater tees offer endless ways to elevate those early morning class fits.
The Elevated White Top
As great as a basic white tee can be, it can look a little sloppy without the proper styling. Swap it for an elevated white top instead. Subtle details like ruffles, lace trim or puffed sleeves instantly take your look from ‘walk of shame’ to ‘walk of fame.’ Dress it up with your favorite jeans or keep things casual chic with sweats or shorts. No matter how you style it, your look will feel effortless yet put together. And the best part? An elevated white top pairs with virtually any color or style of bottoms, making it the ultimate transition piece to take you from class to wherever the rest of your day takes you!
Matching Sets
A matching set is the ultimate cheat code to looking put together, even on those days you secretly aren’t. Whether it’s a workout set or a linen button-up paired with a white tank, you’ll rock the effortless look — effortlessly!
Rugby Shirts
Good news! Old-school style is back — a timeless trend making a well-timed comeback to save you on those mornings when you need an outfit that doesn’t scream, “I got home three hours ago…” If you’re looking for a piece that makes a bold, colorful statement or a more refined, solid-colored or classic striped look, the rugby shirt is the versatile staple that can do it all.
Denim Sweats
A pair of denim sweats is crucial for those slow mornings. Looking almost identical to true denim while feeling as cozy as sweatpants, these jeans-sweats are a go-to staple in any college wardrobe. Coined by rag & bone, the trend has since been adopted by countless fashion brands, offering options for nearly every price range. Style them with a sweater tee, a casual white top or even a rugby shirt, and you’ve got the perfect early morning approved class outfit.
Statement Jewelry
Sometimes all an outfit needs is the right accessory. If you wake up and feel the matching sweat set calling your name, try jazzing it up with your favorite statement necklace or earrings. Accessories are the perfect way to look like you tried — without really trying. A few pieces of jewelry can take your laziest outfit from ‘rolled out of bed’ to ‘rolled onto the runway.’
