Fashion Trends At Fordham University

I am a junior at Fordham University in the Bronx. I also have taken classes at the Lincoln Center campus and from my encounter on these campus's, I've definitely noticed the most popular fashion trends at Fordham. Here's what I've noticed!

Sweatpants Are Acceptable?

Giphy

Acceptable enough, at least, for a huge portion of students to wear them going about their days, at class and even at work! I'm a huge fan of matching sweatsuits; I think they're very trendy and I own a few myself. However, I do think that there is a time and place for sweatpants and I definitely wouldn't wear this to work. That being said, I'm not a huge fan of baggy pajama like sweatpants. I just don't think it looks good, but to each their own!

Trendy / Unique Trench Coats

Giphy

I've recently a lot more unique patterned trench coats in place of the traditional oversized black winter jacket. I definitely love this trend and tried a green plaid trench coat with my Rent The Runway subscription!

I think that using jackets as an additional fashion statement or way to show off your style is super cool and I'm happy to see that we're expanding from the traditional winter coat.

NY has terrible winters, so we may as well take advantage of it however we can and rock some cool jackets!

Business Casual / Everyday Attire 

Giphy

A lot of people go for the everyday attire that is sometimes a bit more on the business casual side and other times more on the trendy and stylish side! I'm a fan of all aspects of this trend and definitely rock this trend quite often myself. I think a solid pair of jeans with a stylish sweater or shirt paired with the right shoes can be just what you need to look put together and ready to tackle your day, without requiring too much thought or effort.

Girl Boss 

Giphy

Another trend that I am definitely a fan of and rock myself is the girl boss vibe! It can be jeans with a button down blouse and booties and you're rocking people's socks off. It doesn't take a dress or super expensive clothes to make a girl boss vibe, just experiment with what you have and flaunt it!

I believe that comfort comes over everything so if you wear outfits that comfortable and make you feel confident, it will work wonders for you!

Hipster

Giphy

There is definitely a huge population of students at Fordham that are very trendy and wear what I would categorize as hipster clothes. From band tees to patterned pants, there is definitely a very creative and outgoing side to Fordham's population and I absolutely love seeing what unique and bold statements my fellow classmates can make with their outfits.

Business Man

Giphy

I can't remember the last time I went about campus and didn't see a guy in a suit. Besides looking like a pretty boy, dressing in a suit will make you look and feel more professional and may influence how you go about your day.

I do not wear suits, but I can imagine that they can be quite uncomfortable so if you don't NEED to wear a suit but want to look very professional and put together, I am a huge fan of a blazer with jeans and dress shoes.

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.
