My Prediction of the Go-To Outfit for Most LMU Girls This Semester

So if you went to LMU last year, I don't know if you noticed, but about 80% of the girls dressed about exactly the same. I mean, on one hand that's good because it means that they were all very aware of all trends appropriate for class. Then on the other hand, it's slightly underwhelming fashion is supposed to be exciting and expressive, but hey, at least it's easier to set yourself apart. 

If you can't recall, let me remind you. If you were walking through Alumni Mall at any given time last year, let's say February, you were guaranteed to see the following items: a blousy little top (possibly cotton jersey) with some ruffles or a floral pattern or a bubble hem, a square-shapes scarf arranged in a triangle shape with the ends hanging over the shoulders, slouchy boots that hit mid-calf, braids, a loose cardigan sweater, gladiator sandals, leggings, and lots of plaid. This sound about right?

So this summer I've been reading a lot of magazines and fashion blogs and things of that sort so I think I have a pretty good grasp on which trends that every LMU girl will want to wear. Take your pick:

• slouchy boyfriend tees
• leggings with zippers or buttons at the ankle
• slouchy grandpa cardigans
• ankle boots
• purses with studs
• distressed denim
• leather and/or denim vests
• chain necklaces
• belted dresses and tops
• neon
• high-waisted mini-skirts
• boyfriend blazers
• maybe a couple over-the-knee boots for the bold

Let's see how accurate I am.
