Whenever I picture December, images of peppermint mochas, holiday fashion and family time are always at the front of my mind. Somehow, every year, I manage to repress the memories of the first two stressful, hellish weeks that make up finals season. If you’re anything like me, you’re probably on your phone or computer looking up holiday outfit inspiration and daydreaming about all of the seasonal treats you want to try, all to avoid doing any actual studying.
Luckily you can have the best of both worlds this year by getting some quick fashion inspiration for finals week and while still having enough time to comb through your notes. Here’s some of our fave inspo for finals week fashion, all from members of Her Campus’s InfluenceHer Collective!
Sugar and spice make an outfit look nice
Don’t want to choose between cozy and sexy? You don’t have to anymore, just pair your warmest plaid with a silk camisole like this one and you’ll be celebration-ready once you finish your last final.
It’s time to jingle bell rock
Punk’s not dead, we’re just wearing it now. This cherry red leather jacket pairs perfectly with a graphic tee and ripped jeans for a glam yet rebellious look.
All black everything
A favorite tactic in my own wardrobe planning skills, a simple all-black top and bottom draws the attention to other parts of your outfit. Grab your favorite sneakers like these and let them shine!
Sweat it out
Who knew that a simple pair of grey sweatpants could be so stylish? It’s every college gal’s dream come true. Style them with a pair of Timbs to look fierce and cozy at the same time.
Have a monochromatic moment
You’ll never have to worry about matching again if your entire outfit is the same color palette! With dreary weather outside, this sunny outfit has us feeling peachy keen.
Graphic content ahead
Don’t put away your favorite graphic tees for the winter season just yet! Layer a long-sleeved shirt underneath one for an edgy, cold-weather take on an outfit you typically see during the summer.
Give us the cold shoulder
Cold shoulder sweaters are the best way to show a little skin during the winter months without sacrificing warmth. They’re easy to pair with just about anything, like these black and white striped wide-leg pants.
