Students at the University of Alabama know that the most anticipated day of the week is always Saturday. Wondering why that is? Two words: Game Day.
Whether you’re a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, there is no doubt that a fun day lies ahead. The football game isn't the only competition that matters, though. The fashion competition between the girls gets just as much attention and you can’t help but buy every cute thing you see that sports your school spirit (like that cute tank from VS PINK!)
1. MAKING THE GAME PLAN
Recruit your girlfriends to make plans for outfits, tailgating and the afterparty. You'll quickly realize that your potential outfits have taken over and your bed has become a sea of crimson, black and white. There are always so many ways to dress, so try switching it up a little for each game!
2. THESE BOOTS ARE MADE FOR WALKIN'
Your trendy new wedges can sit this one out – comfy shoes are a must for game day. Between tailgating and watching the game, you'll be on your feet a lot. Instead, opt for some cowboy boots or play it safe with a pair of gladiator sandals. Don’t forget to bring your red and white shaker to cheer on your team or stick it in your cowboy boots as a fun accessory!
3. LONG HAIR DON'T CARE
Alabama's hot and humid days can make finding the perfect hairstyle the struggle. Play it safe with some loose curls or a playful party-pony. If you’re dealing with a bad hair day, add a classy sunhat and no one will ever know! To complete your gameday look, a bright red lipstick is always a good idea.
4. CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS
Accessorizing can sometimes be more important than your game day outfit. Sunnies, hats, shakers and shoes are your main staples - so try to keep it simple with a cute pair of earrings and a statement necklace to accentuate your outfit and you're good to go.
5. PACK YOUR BAGS
It’s going to be a long day, so be prepared and grab a classic satchel to pack all of your necessities you'll need for the game. I never leave home without my Action Card, money, phone for countless selfies and live tweeting during the game, portable charger, and stylish shades to keep the sun out of your eyes and some lip gloss.
6. ROLL WITH THE TIDE
When the tailgating has ended and it’s time to head into the stadium, get some 'gram-worthy shots with your friends, cheer on your favorite team, have fun, sing along to Dixieland Delight, and celebrate the big win – ROLL TIDE!!
After a long, long day of slaying game day, there is no better feeling than getting home and throwing on your favorite pair of leggings and a big, cozy sweatshirt like the one below from VS PINK. But just because the game is over doesn't mean the school spirit is lost.
PINK embodies the energy, excitement, and fun of college life. Offering pretty and playful intimates, loungewear, beauty, and activewear, PINK has become a collegiate staple, instantly recognizable and coveted by girls all around the world.
