Guys, summer is over! I know this could be hard for everyone but I’m here to help you out since a lot of people are struggling with what to wear, and hopefully, this could make your school year better. Here are five tips for back to school fashion.

Essentials are extremely important, like your t-shirts and hoodies. The reason why this is a must-have for guys and girls is that they’re so simple for that everyday look. Also, they look good with every other clothing pieces.

Have a pair of white sneakers, because it looks good with any outfit and you can wear it all year around. I did a fashion interview with Jason Lee, my weirdest friend.

He suggested white vans sneaker because they are just so comfortable. However, the downside of this is that white sneakers get dirty easily, so you got to take cares of your shoes.

Wear watch guys, I bet you can’t even name one of your friends that wears a watch… so if you want to stand out… the easiest way is just to wear a watch. You don’t need those expensive ones, just buy one that fits you. Buy one that’s light, so it flows with the outfit like it can almost disappear on your wrist.

Wear well-fitted jeans, it’s all about the fits guys. You don’t want to rock some jeans that are going to make you look like you are in a dress. When you are buying on new jeans, one trick you can do is try to sit on your lab and see if it’s to tie, if it’s too tie then the jean is probably not the one for you. One thing that’s really important is that you don’t want too much distress on your jeans, because it’s supports help you stay warm.

Last but not least, this applies to all the tips above, guys don’t overdress or underdress. If you dress too extra everyone is going to notice, and possibly think that you are trying too hard. On the other hand, if you just don’t care what you are wearing then you are not going to look well put together.

All right guy, that’s the five tips I have for everyone that’s in school and wants to dress better. Hopefully, these tips will help, and will make your next school year better!
