Around this time of year, people are trying to buy new clothes to look their best for fall. But, what are the most necessary essentials for your closet? Here are the 10 necessities to make the most out of your business casual.

1. Black jeans

A nice set of black jeans can be dressed up or dressed down to fit any kind of occasion. You can wear it with a blazer for work or school or a T-Shirt when you are relaxing at home.

2. Skinny jeans

You may think that skinny jeans are not professional enough. However, in recent times, they are the new pants. You can put them with a pair of heels and instantly be accepted.

3. White blouse

A white blouse can work in summer or winter, despite past color fashion beliefs. You can roll the sleeves up or keep them down.

4. Booties

When you have a nice set of little booties you can pair them with literally any outfit. They can go with the skirt, shorts or even a nice pair of jeans.

5. Blazer

Blazers are one of the first things people think of when they hear business casual, and they should be. They are the item that truly can make an outfit business casual or just plain casual.

6. Basic tees

If you don't have a white, black or maybe avocado colored shirt, you're missing out. Whenever you have multiple colors of a solid shirt you can put them under a blazer with some jewelry, and people won't even notice that you have on a tee.

7. Black heels

Black heels can be worn with any type of clothes. They can go great with pants, jeans or dresses. They give a nice professional look that business owners are looking for.

8. Dresses

I know, I know you're looking at this list and just see "dress", that seems kind of typical. Well, that is because in and of its self, it is. But, with the other items on this list, you can look snazzy.

9. Kimono

A kimono instantly dresses up any outfit and gives it a hippie vibe.

10. A little black skirt

A little black skirt can be used with your blazer or by its self with a tee, and it will still look just as good.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads.
