5 Things Every College Girl Needs In Her Closet
Erica Melendez

We have been in classes for about a month now and I think most of us have realized the pieces of clothing that are our “go-to’s”. For me, it is a Tarleton t-shirt, a grey sweater from Old Navy, a pair of straight leg jeans from Target, and my Nike shoes. These are the pieces of clothing that I throw on when I am running late for class or I have no idea what the heck to wear. This week, I have put together a list of some articles of clothing every college girl needs in her closet.

Pair of Jeans

  • No matter what the weather is like, you can always throw on a pair of jeans for class. Almost anything goes with jeans, and once you find your favorite pair it is one of the easiest things to slip on fast!

College T-shirt

  • If you’re like me and go to a university where school spirit is key, it is socially acceptable to wear a school affiliated t-shirt every day. But as long as you have at least one in your closet you can just throw that shirt on if you are running late to class!

Sweaters

  • My mom thinks I have an unhealthy obsession with sweaters, but having at least one neutral colored sweater in your closet is not a bad idea. They are light and easy to carry around, they offer some warmth in that class that is way too cold, and they can easily dress up on outfit!

Rain Boots

  • If you live in a college town where it is subject to rain, go get yourself a $10 pair of rain boots from Walmart and call it a day! It is a much simpler fix than getting your shoes all wet and walking around in water all day.

A Simple Dress

  • There is going to be some point in your college career where you need to dress up a little more formal. This is a time where you need something other than jeans and a college t-shirt. That is why it is a good idea to have at least one simple dress in your closet! I am not talking a homecoming dress here, it could be a t-shirt dress with some nice jewelry or a skater dress with a decent pair of flats. But this way if you need a dress for a dinner you have an option!


Now I can think of many more clothing items to put on this list, but for those of us who are not exactly clothing freaks at least this can get you started! So go look in your closet and see if you have at least a few of these items and if you don’t, guess who gets to go on a little shopping trip!!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
