Heading back to uni is
an incredibly exciting time. Escaping the constant vigilance of overly-caring
parents and returning to complete independence to do as you please, and eat 4 times
the recommended salt and fat levels – bliss!
Amidst all of the excitement and
anticipation, looking forward to being reunited with friends you haven’t seen
for months and the freedom to ditch clothes-hangers and employ the floor as the most
practical wardrobe, comes the panic of “What clothes do I take?!”
You have one suitcase in which to
fit an entire year’s worth of clothing - quite a feat. That means covering all
bases of practical, fashionable and wearable with just a handful of items. This
means serious fashion business! Being in Edinburgh, I can’t just throw in a
casual summer smock and sandals hoping I’ll get a chance to wear them. I know
it will be sub-zero temperatures within weeks and I just don’t have the suitcase space to
spare for such optimism. It’s important to stick to staples which can be worn
limitless times and can be re-worked in to several outfits.


This fabulous ACNE Vera leather-trimmed shearling biker jacket would be the
perfect addition to my wardrobe. Versatile and chic, it's ideal to wrap up warm on
the bone-chilling winter days and eluding a clear sense of style and sophistication.

With pieces that transform effortlessly from day to night, and tick both the comfort and style boxes, you'll be able to dress well with just a few key pieces.
So pack clever to ensure you can always look great without suffering the cold and concentrate solely on enjoying student life.
