Ace your classes in style

Get full marks for your major and your style, words by Buntu Ngcuka for Letterhead

Whether you’re fresh in the game as a first-year or a seasoned vet doing your final year on campus, looking good is a must. But don’t worry, being among the best-dressed in class and feeling comfortable doesn’t have to break the bank – you don’t have to start over with a complete wardrobe overhaul, either. Let’s help you nail that effortless back-to-varsity look with pieces that are on-trend so you can express your unique personality.

Res relaxation

When you’re still trying to get a feel of everyone’s vibe, it helps to look relaxed yourself. Our next-level streetwear doubles as loungewear essentials you can wear around the dining hall or even to town when you’re running errands. Our fave is the oversized T-shirt, with its dropped shoulders and extended short sleeves. Pair it with your go-to headgear and shorts or sweats.

 Late nights at the library

All-nighters are part of the student experience. Top marks for those tutorials and exams don’t come easy, but thankfully, with us, looking presentable does. Don’t get caught slipping, even at the busiest times. Hoodies won’t let you down and while it’s still warm, you can team with the season’s hottest arrival: baggy denim shorts. Add some personality to your look with a bandana and you’re set.

Look fresh from Friday

Weekends are for letting loose and getting to know your fellow students. It’s the perfect time to show your unique take on stylish classics. Take the T-shirt and jeans look, for example. You can add your own twist to it by going for an oversized tee silhouette and even baggier jeans. Finish things off with the utility gilet and some accessories.
