What not to wear to your first lecture

It’s that time of the year freshers


You’ve come to a new environment, and going to the long, tedious lectures is just the start. The very least you can do is look, and feel the part, to make you at least feel like you’re learning something.

The Tab’s got you covered with our guide for what NOT to wear to your first.. or any lecture.

First impressions count after all.

Suits 

You’re at university not a business meeting. Leave the smart dress-code to Barney Stinson.

Lecturers won’t think you’re any smarter.

Sunglasses

Don’t be that douche who wears sunglasses indoors to be hip.

You’re not cool, just have an instagram filter on life.

Onesies

Onesies are a weird concept anyway, just leave it for those winter days when you just want a snuggle.

THEY ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR JUMPSUITS

Sports/Gym Gear

We get it.. you’re more active than most of us. It’s not an excuse to show off your chiselled abs 5 days a week.

Too much mesh ew

One night stand-esq

They’re never something to be proud of, no matter how good you look. No lecture is worth you tarnishing your dignity further.

Stay classy.. Nottingham

Fake Lashes

Plastic fantastic is only acceptable at that on nights out. Being glammed up for an hour of education is simply not worth a lot of makeup let alone the whole shebang.

Since when was looking like a circus performer attractive?

Socks and Sandals

Okay we know that no one but the 50+ does this trend, but there’s a special place in hell for the person who brought the trend of Jelly Shoes with white ankle socks.

The Michael Jackson look was maybe cool in the 80s..

Double Denim

We are fully aware it may look hot on SOME people.. but when you’re striding with pride with the same shade of denim on.. nope.

Did the 90’s chunder all over you?
