What To Wear In A Week:
Back-To-School Edition
Featuring five different aesthetics you can wear from Monday to Friday
Monday: Casual Athleisure
Maybe you have had a long weekend, or you would rather stay in your pyjamas — either way, comfort is the key to surviving Mondays. Athleisure staples are the perfect go-tos for days like these, as they balance functionality with a fuss-free aesthetic. A roomy carrier like the Soleil nylon tote bag is the perfect essential item. It is equipped with multiple compartments to keep your things organised, and its clean exterior will go well with just about anything — the nylon finish is also durable and water-resistant. To create a laidback ensemble that still feels put-together, pair with textured sneakers like the Kay denim low-top sneakers.
Tuesday: Effortless Yet Elevated
As you ease into the week, you will probably want to make a good impression — elevated-casual pieces will do the trick. Simple, timeless silhouettes in neutral hues like black and white are as versatile as they are elegant. To spruce things up, add an element of tactility — the puffy finish of the Errya quilted crossbody bag will inject a pleasing softness into any ensemble and doubles as a comforting pillow on your commute to school. As you head out the door, slip into the buckle-strap flatform mules to complete the outfit, or pick the ankle-strap ballet flats for a dressier touch.
Wednesday: Preppy Academic
The remedy for the mid-week slump is to dress up a little — and preppy style is the easiest way to channel the aesthetic of a studious academic. Lean into schoolgirl charm with a pair of patent buckled Mary Jane flats. The closed-toed style and buckled details are suitably prim and proper. If a heeled option is your preference, the Hester Mary Jane block-heel pumps will do the trick. To look the part of a model student, complete the ensemble with a sweater, miniskirt and the front flap structured backpack.
Thursday: An Unexpected Twist
You made it to Thursday, so it is time to take things up a notch with an unexpected detail, texture or color. Swap the sensible neutral-hued carrier for a more refreshing option, like this mint-green iteration of our tubular slouchy tote bag. It will brighten your outfits and hold all your essentials with ease at the same time. The more functional aspects of your student life can also be a part of the look — this laptop bag features a textured panel against a matte finish to create subtle visual contrast. Other distinctive details include additional straps and platform soles on the classic Mary Jane style, as seen on the Luella triple-strap Mary Jane platform pumps.
Friday: All-Day Sophistication
The last day of the school week calls for a celebration, so picking good day-to-night pieces is crucial. Tailored silhouettes look polished enough for the classroom and will look just as classy for your evening plans. Opt for classic styles and sleek details — the Gabine leather T-bar Mary Jane pumps feature interlocking buckles that add a touch of refinement to the black leather finish. If you’re carrying your laptop around, the quilting on the Aubrielle quilted laptop bag gives the carrier an elevated feel.
