With spring semester in full swing, you won’t want to pass up this season’s must-haves. From cute jackets to hair styling tools, here’s everything you need to have your best semester yet:

1. A leather jacket


Leather jackets are perfect for spring because not only do they look great for going out (and keep you warm when it’s still chilly), they look super bada** during the day, too! H&M has a ton of different options.

2. Conair Diamond Brilliance Smoothing Hot Brush


This hot new hair styling tool is perfect for on-the-go girls. Run it through dry hair and see results in an instant! You can find them at Target.

3. A statement choker


As I’m sure you know, chokers are back — and they’re here to stay. Grab one at Charlotte Russe — they’re 2/$10!

4. Boyfriend jeans


Whether you’re trekking to class or out on the town, boyfriend jeans will bolden any look. Forever 21 is sure to have a pair you’ll love.

5. Versatile sneakers


Whether you’re into Adidas or Vans, Converse or Keds, versatile sneakers are an absolute must for spring. Head over to Zappos to find your perfect match.

With these five items, you’ll be ready to take on whatever this semester has planned for you. Good luck, collegiettes!
