Budget fashion tips for that back to college look

With lectures in full flight and assignments starting to trickle in, there also comes the perennial ’what am I going to wear to college?’ Paula Burns has done her homework and picked key looks this Autumn that student budgets can stretch to.

While our foremost thought should be our timetable, we all know that getting the look right for college is often top of the student priority list. This season the Seventies is having a fashion revival and so there’s fun to be had.

My advice: Treat yourself to one throwback piece per outfit. Style a polo neck with skinny jeans or skirt, wear the gilet as a statement coat and if afraid to embrace full on fringe, then mix it with accessories.
