College Closet Essentials

A fashion expert points out clothing that every college student should have.

Jeans are an essential. Go middle-of-the-road when selecting a color and style — not too dark, too light or too trendy.

As far as T-shirts, go basic for comfort and versatility, and get both long and short sleeve ones.

Essentials for girls are jeans, sneakers, a hooded sweatshirt and roomy purse.

Guys should always have a pair of shorts and a button-down shirt.
