While many fashion choices were meant to stay in the past, some were just meant to brought back...

So get ready for a blast from the past. Here's a list of ten clothing items that were popular before many of us were even born that every college girl with style has worn at least once.

1. Body Suits

While brightly colored body suits were all the rage in the 80s, they have made a comeback in a very different way. With all different styles and colors, it's easy to throw one of these under a pair of ripped jeans and you're all set to go.

2. Flannels

The '90s were a time of grunge and punk rock, so a big flannel tied around the waist was a must. Now, a flannel worn with simple leggings is a fall must-have.

3. Doc Martens

Doc Martens and any kind of combat boots were super popular in the 90s, so it's no surprise that today they are a staple boot that any girl needs for her closet.

4. Flared Pants


What's more iconic than 70s flared bell-bottom pants? These are my personal favorite. Toss the funky patterns and go for a solid colored pair of flared pants with a short boot and you might as well go to a disco club with this outfit on.

5. Vintage Band T-shirts

Ahhh, the good old vintage band tee. Honestly, these can be the comfiest things ever and you just look super cool if you have one on. 10/10 would recommend buying one of these classics.

6. Crop Tops

Most of the time I'd think we would want to forget early 2000s fashion, however, the crop tops of that time have had a fashionable upgrade and these are super cute with some high waisted pants.

7. High Waisted Pants


Another one of my personal favorites. You just really can't go wrong with these. Not only are they comfortable, but you're less likely to have that little bit of extra fat roll over the top of your jeans. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Don't pretend that hasn't happened to you.

8. Leather & Denim Jackets

Both leather and jean jackets were popular in the past. They're now a stylish way to look cute when that chilly fall air hits.

9. Ripped Mom Jeans


The "mom jeans" of the 80s and 90s can stay in that decade but cut a few holes in them and all of a sudden you got a new fashion craze.

10. Mini Skirts

The mini skirt of the 60s inspired the mini skirt of today's age. High waisted zipper mini skirts are perfect to go out in, plus the checkered pattern is essential if you want to make a bold statement.


You might've thought these clothing items were gonna stay in the past, but sometimes old things just need a new twist to make them worthy of bringing back.

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.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during 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. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
