Style on less than P1,000 | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

If you’re one of those who no longer need a uniform, it’s time to do a little back-to-school shopping. Look chic around your college campus without having to break into the bank.

Here are four different looks with pieces less than P1,000!

Dress

Regretting picking classes that are first thing in the morning? The quickest way to get ready for school and still make it on time for class is by throwing on a dress. Layer on a vest and pair it with structured accessories to look polished!

BACK TO SCHOOL STEALS: Garterized dress, P698, and linen romper worn as a vest, P598, What A Girl Wants; two-toned flats, P899, SO!FAB; structured purse, P690, Androgyny; tie headband, P250, Looking For Lola

Tote bag

While you may not be studying in Manhattan’s Upper East side, add a little Blair factor to your everyday school wardrobe by using this Chanel-esque tote as  school bag!

BACK TO SCHOOL STEALS: Grey top with lace detail, P468, and tweed tote, P990, Androgyny; navy trousers, P788, and striped blazer, P888, What A Girl Wants

Skirt

Inspired by schoolgirl uniforms, the skirt is an essential.  To avoid looking like you’ve taken a cue from Britney Spears circa 1998, skip the midriff and bring the hemline a little lower. Pair an oversized blouse with the skirt, and look sharp by cinching the waist with a thin leather belt!

BACK TO SCHOOL STEALS: Two-layered skirt, P468, and oversized polo, P698, What A Girl Wants; beige driving shoes, P899, SO!F.A.B

Tailored shorts

While some may be lucky enough to land in one of those classes in air-conditioned classrooms, others may not be as lucky. Beat the campus heat by wearing shorts! Stay away from extremely short shorts; instead, select styles which are longer and more tailored to make them more appropriate for classes.

BACK TO SCHOOL STEALS: Tailored shorts, P690, graphic tee, P490, braided belt, P290, and striped tote, P768, all from Androgyny; Houndstooth polo, P698, What A Girl Wants; two-toned oxfords, P899, SO!F.A.B.
