Dressing up for school doesn’t have to be as hard as your mid-terms! Choose your favorite staple pieces and then mix and match! Mine are: cardigans, colorful necklaces, and belts!

You know those mornings when you wake up energized and excited for the day, after nine hours of sleep, and you dress in a super cute outfit, have the perfect curl to wave ratio, and flawless make-up in a matter of minutes? Cool, me neither.
 
Unlike Ke$ha, I do not wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy. I’m sure we’re all too familiar with those mornings when you have to exert every ounce of energy just to get out of bed and end up wearing what you slept in to class. Your 8 a.m. psych class is lucky if they get to see you with a swipe of mascara on, and as you grab your laptop and keys, you wish celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe was your best friend. These are the days when it seems every girl walking through the six-pack decided to get up a little early and dress as if they were coming off of the runway at a New York fashion show. Guess you missed the memo.
 
Let’s be completely real: Instead of actually taking psychology notes, you are people watching and Facebook creeping on your friends and your friends’ friends to memorize outfits that you can later run to your closet and duplicate. If only you could have a place where you could continuously look at outfits to inspire your own!  We at Her Campus Texas have heard your S.O.S. and are sending a lifeboat! We decided to create an “outfit sharing platform” so you can virtually look at fellow Longhorns’ outfits and take pieces of those outfits to create a whole new look, then post your own outfits! You know you’ve been taking all those mirror pictures of your outfits, so why not show them off? You could be a trendsetter! I’ve taken the liberty to post some of my own outfits; feel free to take a look (don’t judge too harshly!) and then start posting your own! No longer will you have to stand in front of your closet deciding what to wear—grab your ideas from us!
