College is a place you absolutely should experiment with your style. Don’t play it safe by restricting yourself to a sort of uniform – you’ve already done that in school for twelve years (not by choice, of course!). If you’re facing a dilemma about how to amp things up, we suggest you look for inspiration from your fave celebs and dig deep into your closet. And, of course, read THIS!
1. Try The Deepika (H)Attitude!
She is one of the most beautiful actors in India, and her personal style NEVER disappoints us. A floppy sun hat and a nice pair of boots (to save you from the pee-fest from above – i.e., rain) can transform a basic outfit. And hey, don’t miss the classic red lips, yo!
POPxo Recommends: Dorothy Perkins Knee Length Black Boots (Rs 3,540), Vero Moda Slim Fit Denims (Rs 1,150), Catwalk 88 Cut About Tee Shirt (Rs 1,295), Black Felt Fedora Hat (Rs 1,045)
2. Rock Those Skinnies Like Kangana
Kangana Ranaut nails it on screen and off screen too! While her acting skills are out of the world, her personal style is on some other level too. We mean, just look at her! And, you can do it too! A cool jacket over a body-hugging crop top, skinny jeans and a really funky pair of shoes to go with it and you’re done for the day! This one is a perfect outfit for a casual day at college.

3. Gladiator Glam Like Aditi
Aditi’s charm and elegance won us over in Khubsoorat (even if it was for five minutes), and we haven’t been able to turn our eyes away from her ever since. This girl is totes amaze! We absolutely love how she has paired her shirt dress with a pair of knee length gladiators. Her look screams attitude. And trust us – you need that in college.

4. Go Oh-So-Adorbs Like Alia
We adore Alia’s sense of style. She is effortlessly chic and is an ideal inspiration for girls going to college. Check out how she’s killing it in this minimal yet feminine look. Her shoes are super rad and her dress is cute as hell! Pair them with a cool pair of shades to make a statement – and you’re all set for rock the campus with your style.
POPxo Recommends: Floral Print Dress (Rs 1,850), Blue Sporty Sneakers (Rs 3,000), MI PACK PERFORATED Backpack (3,495), Style Fiesta Wayfarer Sunglasses (Rs 1,199)
5. Be A Desi Diva A La Sonam
Sonam Kapoor believes in experimenting and evolving when it comes to her personal style, and we love her for it. Give the usual salwar-kurtas a break and go for summery, colourful and pretty anarkalis. Finish up with some ethnic jewelry like jhumkis and a simple necklace. If you don’t want to spend too much, you can even get some off the cobbled streets of Janpath or Colaba.
