The pressure of having a fabulous first day of school outfit has passed, and the fall season is upon us. As the leaves turn red and orange, the question arises: What are Latin students wearing?
Longchamps
Latin’s most popular bag, the Longchamp Le Pliage Tote, is back this year and is as popular, if not more so, than it was last season. For students looking for a stylish alternative to a backpack, a trendy purse like the Longchamp is the perfect accessory to complete a fall outfit—just look down the hallways, and you’ll see how many students agree. While the classic navy variation remains a staple, Longchamps of all colors have made their debut in classrooms this fall.
Although Latin’s masses love to sport the trendiest items, owning something as popular as the Longchamp can occasionally yield some minor challenges. Sophomore Ciena Dhawan said, “It can be very stressful sometimes to put my bag down in the halls, due to the fear of getting my bag mixed up with someone because of how many people own the same exact bag.”
Owala
Staying hydrated is important, so why not drink your water from a cute bottle? With mix-and-match lids, fun color pairings, and the sleek design of the water bottle, the Owala is the most popular water bottle this fall. Specifically, the tall, narrow design allows the bottle to fit easily in any bag while still storing a generous amount of water—the 24-ounce or 32-ounce sizes are the most popular. The colorful contrast between the mix-and-match lids and the vibrant body of the water bottle provides ample opportunities for personalization, making Owala an ideal choice for school.
Colorful knits
Dressing up at 8 a.m. every day takes effort. The staple school outfit is baggy jeans and a plain t-shirt all year round, but this season, students are beginning to amplify their outfits with colorful knits. The best way to stay comfortable throughout the day while still wearing cute clothes is to wear a stylish sweater. Knitwear is a staple for fall and winter, and currently, we’re seeing colorful cardigans, shrugs, and more. If you want to elevate your jeans and t-shirt into a unique, fun outfit for fall, select a knit top to complete your look.
Denim
As the temperature drops, it’s time to put your denim skirts away and bring out your jeans for the upcoming winter season. Denim is the most popular trend in the Latin halls during winter and is beginning to appear more often in students’ outfits as the fall season progresses. The current most popular form of denim is low-waisted, baggy jeans—skinny jeans are a rarity at school.
