This outfit gives me the feel of a private school uniform in the best possible way. Most Dark Academia books take place in boarding schools so this first outfit is very fitting.

We have a staple white shirt that most people already have on hand already. (It’s a classic wardrobe essential for a reason.)

Up next, we have an ever academic-looking grey sweater vest. The zip in front makes it more versatile for most weathers or occasions.

I love this vegan leather satchel because you very rarely see people going around with satchels and when I do see one, it sticks with me for the rest of the day. It also harkens back to the old school days when children carried satchels to school. Start a statement with this bag on your shoulder.

Lastly, we have a pair of brown loafers. Loafers seem to be my go-to shoes right now if I’m looking for something comfortable and corporate-looking at the same time.

This cozy look is perfect for sitting down with a gothic novel while the rain pours outside and the wind sounds like ghosts calling.

This beige cable-knit pullover just screams late nights studying with a cup of coffee and a lofi playlist. It looks cozy and warm which is ideal for these crazy temperatures we’re having.

The brown skirt with windowpane print almost looks like plaid, a Dark Academia material, and the small slit on the side gives it just a hint of attitude.

For footwear, I chose these black pumps with a short wedge heel. They’re a simple yet elegant addition to the look.

Finally, I added some black tights for warmth and for their faint patchwork design.

Black is without a doubt a gothic, brooding color, so that’s why I decided on an all-black outfit.
