Here are some tips to get you prepared and ready to go:
- Mix 'n match your clothes - Since its a new school year, we might update our fashion senses without spending like thousands we just our old shirt and put some accessories that we can use it over and over again even tho its old, this way, you would be able to reuse the items over and over again so you wouldn't have to keep buying new pieces that you could only use once or twice.Using accessories can bring the outfit! Different schools, different rules. At my school, we follow our school policy. We must wear our prescribed uniform, but of course.I know some of you are now college and wearing different clothes.
- Jeans or Leggings - you must wear jeans or leggings first at your first day of school, because you'll go to different buildings and you have to stand up and sit. So that there will be no hesitate and it wouldn't be awkward.
- Comfortable Flats - You must wear flat shoes first, because you have to walk, run, walk forever. Choose footwear that you can walk around the campus, but of course make sure you'd be able to last the whole day wearing them. I love the flats at Topshop, payless, Celine. I usually shop there, I recommend those stores for you. ;)
- Cotton Shirts - You wear cotton shirts! Our weather in manila is very bipolar, it'll rain then Mr. Sun is shining again and that's it! Hahah! Wear cotton shirts so that if you sweat you will be fresh and you won't feel 'malagkit'. I recommend Bench, their shirts there are cotton and very cheap. They have the simple one only!! :)
- Cardigan - Most schools are now using aircon, but of course per class its only 30 to 20+ but it depends on the school policy, we must wear one because we never no what will be the temperature of the aircon!
- Bags - I recommend wear a backpack first because you have to put your goodies there, your kikay kit, your personal stuffs. Its only the first day palang naman so it won't be heavy. Jansports is a good bag because they have a good quality even tho its a little bit expensive. They have good colors plus!!! They have very good designs, that will fit your designs.
- Be ready for our weather - Our weather here in Manila can be pretty bipolar in some time, so it's good to always be prepared just in case the day doesn't go the way we planned.
- Mini Umbrella - Bring an umbrella a mini one so that you can put it on your bag and won't take too much space, and the other reason too is that you don't have to make "silong" to you other classmates.
- Abanico Fan - My other classmates are teasing me because I'm like a grand mother because I'm bringing one, my mum always put a fan in my bag so that I won't feel the exxxttrrreemmmee hot nowadays!
- Sunglasses - I always carry one if we'll gonna go out or whatever things we'll gonna do outside with my fam bam or my friends because my eyes is irritated and I'm having head aches, I make sure my mum bring me one or I'll put it in my bag. Ray ban sunglasses is a gooood one cos they prevent your eyes from the UV Rays!
- Flip-flops - just in case it rain, you have a back up! You don't want to ruin your flats don't you? haha! You don't one to bring boots to your school! Havaianas is a good slipper store, their have a good quality products and almost fit everyone's style.
- Snacks - Bring a snacks with you! So that if you're a commuter student you won't spend too much time going to the mall just to eat. Bring just a little one, in the zip lock or something so that you won't feel hungry ;)
- Re-usable water jag - its so important to bring a water with you because you have to stay hydrated and prevent the heat, use a container that you can easily refill, and use over and over again to be eco-friendly.
- Stay Fresh & Be pretty! - We need to be fresh and good looking till the end of the day! Who looks looking messed, stressed & haggard anyway? Keep a grooming kit in your bag to be fresh!! :)
