Most of your time spent at orientation will involve reviewing the details of college life, campus activities, and signing up for classes; the rest of the time is an opportunity to chat up potential new friends and explore your campus. Here are some tips on what to wear, along with inexpensive yet chic outfit options to start college off on a fashionable foot:
Whether your orientation includes a formal tour or just some free time to venture out on your own, you’ll want to explore your new campus in comfort and style. A loose-fitting nautical shirt with denim cut-offs and cognac sandals is an on-trend look that’s both comfy and affordable. This outfit — paired with a dainty gold pendant, gold bangles,Wholesale Milwaukee Brewers Hats, and a rope bracelet — is summery but could also be easily transitioned for fall.
The bulk of orientation will be group discussion, ice-breaker games, and explanation about campus life. So you’ll want an outfit that makes a good first impression, but is also flexible for different activities, easy to move in, and comfortable in the summer heat. Consider a romper: It combines the adorable look of a sundress with the versatility of shorts.
You’ve graduated high school and now you’re on to bigger and better things… like college!

Some orientations span multiple days, and thus, colleges offer incoming students the opportunity to spend the night in a dorm room. Think of it as a trial run — you’ll get a taste of dorm-life — and a slumber party: Spending the night in the dorm is another great chance to meet people and hang out with your fellow co-eds. Remember to pack a robe and flip-flops for the shower!
