COLLEGE, GABBY'S POSTS · July 29, 2016

A College Girl’s Guide: Starting Off the School Year Right + Free Ebook!

My two most popular posts have been college related: 100 Things to Know Before College and How to Keep Your Life Together. This tells me that people are always looking for advice on how to make the college experience and life in general smooth sailing. I love this too and I’m always looking for online resources for new tips and tricks to staying on top of your goals! So, I’ve been working really hard to put together an Ebook type of thing that is all about starting off the fall semester on the right foot! It’s primarily geared towards first year students who might need some extra help with the big changes and crazy scenarios you experience those first few weeks from home. Here’s one section from the 9-page book available as a free PDF when you sign up for our newsletter using the link to the form at the end of this post! Enjoy and Good Luck with fall semester! {If you’re already subscribed to our newsletter, check your inboxes!}

New year, new you; right? TOTALLY YES. I love a new school year, because it gives you the chance to reinvent yourself and try new styles! Fall collections are coming out and you can try all different trendy things. I was going through my closet to pack for Florida, and I realized that my wardrobe had turned from a colorful mix to pretty basic black and white with navy mixed in! I had really changed from using bright or pastel colors in my style to using cute & classic patterns and cuts to really change up the style game. Don’t get me wrong, I still love a good floral romper and lavender sundress, but typically I’d rather stick to a solid black romper and play up my accessories! Here’s a peak into some outfits I love for campus occasions: You can check out my style picks from last year here.
