Campus Style: The Cambridge Satchel

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Nottingham chapter.

Name: Fay Birch

Year: 2

Course: Law

Her Campus loves: Cambridge Satchels! I adore mine, make sure it’s at the top of your Christmas list ladies and gents!

We only have two weeks of uni before the mass consumption of mince pies and boxes of Celebrations begins. When it comes to Christmas I know what I’ll be doing – hitting the sales! Fay truly got me into the shopping spirit in her gorgeous outfit. From top to toe, Fay mixes high street and vintage – from her Topshop fur pea coat and sandals (http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/jackets-coats-2390889/teddy-fur-pea-coat-2212505?bi=1&ps=200) to her vintage floral green blouse, she works the old and the new with flair. I love her grey high-waisted jeans, a cool take on the usual baggy mom jeans, these Levis are fitted and flatter Fay’s figure. Of course I had to find out where her satchel bag was from! It’s from a market but you can easily bag yourself one from any high street store! The mismatch tones of brown work in this look making it a great casual yet fashionable outfit.

Sheetal studied History at the University of Nottingham and was Campus Correspondent during her final year, before graduating in July 2014. She is currently jumping between jobs, whilst still writing for HC in her spare time. She may or may not be some of these things: foodie, book addict, world traveller (crazy dreamer!), lover of cheese, Australian immigrant, self-proclaimed photographer, wannabe dancer, tree hugger, lipstick ruiner, curly-haired and curious. She hopes for world peace and dreams that someday, cake will not make you fat.
