By now, many of us are probably reaching the point in the term, if we have not already, where we could really use a break. Yes, once again midterm season has fallen upon us, making it nearly impossible to find sanity in the midst of seemingly endless papers, projects, presentations and exams. Luckily, there is a group of people who are always willing to come to our rescue in trying times like these, and that group of folks is in fact none other than our dear old family members.
Thankfully, many schools have scheduled parents weekends where families can plan to visit. However, if your school does not have one coming up anywhere in the near future, and you are in need of some QT with mom and dad, try planning one of your own! Of course, a good amount of us attend colleges hundreds or even thousands of miles away from home, and it may be difficult for your parents to coordinate a visit to campus, but if distance is not an issue or you are able to make it happen, then get ready for a great weekend with the ‘rents.
You will want to go for an outfit that is fall chic, but still comfortable, cozy and most importantly low-key enough for you to hang with your nearest and dearest. This Fashionista perfectly showcases how it’s done with a lightweight light blue sweater over a black lace tank, a pair of dark-wash skinnies and black flip flops, perfectly complemented with a pair of white teardrop earrings and light make up. With a casual yet feminine ensemble, you will be all set to take on a variety of activities to enjoy with mom and/or dad.
One Simple Change: To go from a casual and relaxed weekend with family to something such as date night, it is all in the shoes. Opting for a pair of sky high or over the knee boots will add a dramatic, fall-laiden touch that will set your look totally off for when you step out with your guy.
