Dresses, who? Just no. If you're not a fan of dresses and skirts but people expect you to wear them and follow the trends because, duh, you're a girl, read on. Here's 3 outfits that are definitely preferable to wearing dresses but are still stylish, fresh and perfect for heading back to school in style. I'm not a huge dress or skirt fan myself, (unless it's denim, sometimes I'll give them a try...) so I've chosen these outfits hoping they'll bring a lil' joy to your dress-hating closets!

1. Cosy and casual

Who am I kidding? All these looks are casual! But, anyway. Moving on to these incredible high rise slim leg mom jeans that just look so freakin' comfortable it's insane. The colour and the straight leg fit of these are spot on and they'll be crazy comfy for long days at uni. Pair with a snuggly sweater like this Lulu Rose Grey Turtleneck and plain and simple kicks such as the Vans Old Skool Classic Tumble Sneakers for a minimalist chic take on day to day wear. Finish off the look with a super useful Kånken black backpack. This backpack is so versatile, it'll go with so many outfits!

2. Sass it up

When it comes to wanting to turn a few heads, dungarees and jumpsuits are the perfect alternative to dresses. The Mila denim dungaree in indigo are so cool and would look great paired with everything from plain white tees to stripy tops. Accessorise with classic and minimal pieces like this bottle green Stussy tote bag and grey leather Superga a.k.a the comfiest trainers in the world.

3. Black denim forever

There's nothing a good pair of black skinny jeans can't fix, right? Especially paired with a classic Calvin Klein slogan sweat and stand out sneaks like these Puma pink platforms. Finished off with these amazing Le Specs slay sunnies, you're good to go!
