Exam Season Outfits

Exam season is right around the corner and I am pretty sure that you all will be spending tons of all-nighters twittering, facebook stalking, procrastinating studying. When all your time is being spent hitting the books....it is likely you wont have any time to make outfits or do your hair.

WRONG.

Those are the symptoms of laziness. Fierceness and laziness are like oil and water. One rises above the other.

It is possible to look neat and tidy while preparing to write an exam. All you need are comfy clothing choices, a can do attitude and a hairbrush.

Nothing wrong with wearing sweatpants and hoodies for a month...just do it with style! I think what makes sweats cute is COLOUR. Check out Aeropostale for a diverse range of cute hoodies and sweatpants!

I have created a few outfits for exam season which are comfy, quick to put together and dont scream "I spent all of my time getting ready and not studying"

HAIR: no need to waste precious hours straightening and curling.....stick to the simple messy bun or a chignon. Or you can hop in the shower, hop out, insert gel or mousse, scrunch and voila curly hair! Check out some great hair tutorials at http://theoutfitmaker.blogspot.com/p/hairstyles.html .

Makeup: Dont waste your time applying foundation, bronzer, eye shadow and lipgloss. You don't even have to wear makeup. Go natural! If you do have a moment to spare ..... perhaps eyliner and chapstick? and a hint of blush to add some colour to your cheeks (we all know the zombie-chic face during exam season :S)

Check out some of these comfy and quick exam outfits:



What do you wear during exam season? Are these tips helpful?

PS. One thing you can always do is have your outfits pre-made the night or week before to save time.

  1. I HATE it when people think that exam season means that you should leave all style at the door, and all the kids who normally live in tracksuits and fli-flops look cool. I wear what I would normally wear to my exams, it makes me feel normal.
    Don't be sad about being brunette, I would love to be one! If I ever grow my hair out again might become one, tried it when it was short and it didn't work. Though red is good, I wish I was like Karen Elson but I can enhance what I have :)

  2. I agree with you... exam outfits must be comfy yet stylish. I also believe that confidence is the key. You have to like and be confident with what you're wearing so that your mind will be off your outfit and instead be on the exam.

    Have a great day! xoxo
