The trick to the cool model look is the combination of leather pants and chic laid back sunglasses. The sweater transforms the leather into a casual class look. Go bears!

Elegant Look

Products: Sweater – Yale, Skirt – Revolve, Blazer – Missguided, Heels – Steve Madden

Yes, you can dress up your college sweatshirt! Tuck it into a silky midi skirt (bonus points: animal print) for a classy look.

Layering with a blazer (optional) will make the look even fancier by creating a contrast with the sweater.

Grab a pair of colorful kitten heels to perfect the elegant style.

Now you can go to a fancy restaurant or high school reunion letting everyone know you mean business.

Preppy Look

Products: Sweater – Brown, Skirt – Bloomingdale’s, Loafers – Asos, Hair clips – Asos

Oftentimes college students are associated with a preppy style, but for those of us who consistently see people showing up to class in their pajamas, we know that to not really be the case.

But I have to admit, a preppy look is so cute, and a perfect way to dress up your college sweater.

Nothing says preppy like a tweed skirt and loafers. Finish your look with a Blair Waldorf-esque hair accessory, like these colorful hair clips or a headband.

This outfit is cute for class, a day out with your friends, or a family reunion where you can give the illusion to your relatives that you have your life together.
