Saved by the Bell

The end of Summer can, in a strange way, feel a bit like the end of a movie--rushing to tie up the story line before the credits roll. Yet it isn't just an ending, the last weeks of August are also a beginning. Sure, sure; back-to-school shopping is mainly about preparing for the next semester, but it's also partly about showing how much you've glowed up over the last couple months.

Even after graduating, it's never a bad idea to treat yourself to a bit of "back-to-school" shopping. Keeping your closet dynamic prevents getting in a sartorial rut and gives you a chance to redefine your style.

Whether you're heading back to class or not, here's everything you need to keep your wardrobe fresh while on a student's budget.
