5 MUST-HAVE ITEMS FOR YOUR NEW SEMESTER WARDROBE

Dress Styles

This is going to be a two-part series on shopping for a new session if you are on holiday or this semester if you’re about to.

Like me, you’re probably thinking about how to manage funds and get new outfits. I’m here to help point out needs from wants, you know, the unavoidable.

So without further ado, here are a few must-haves for your resumption closet.

  1. Bags: Bags are necessities regardless of gender, style, or age. Getting the right bag can be hard, I mean we have many clothes that refuse to go with just any bag. To make it easy, here are some that you will most definitely need: a book bag, a cross bag, a tote gag, and a chic fashion bag (you get as many of these in particular).
  2. Shades: Shades tie an outfit together. Regardless of your style, shades are a finality that gives you a classy and complete look.  They are perfect for everyone and for every occasion.
  3.  Umbrellas: This accessory is constantly underutilized. Umbrellas are great for sunny days and rainy days. I’ll advise you to get more than one if you can, it’s important to add options.
  4. Jewellery: From simple earrings to chockers to extravagant necklaces, jewellery allows us to express ourselves in ways we never thought possible. So for this holiday, as you go shopping, I suggest looking out for items that fully explain your style and bring your outfits together.
  5. Underwear: I know this is a weird thing to put on the list, but it is very important and mostly forgotten. I mean, a lot of people don’t seem to realize this but the right underwear gives you a lot of confidence, which you need as a student of OAU.

Sometimes, we consider how expensive these items are, that we keep them out of list but you can always get these at not too expensive prices suitable for your purse type. Never be caught unaware in dare need of these items. Make yourself comfortable this semester while it last.

"I WOULD HATE TO MAKE PROMISES BECAUSE THEN I WOULD BE CHALLENGED TO PERFORM ABOVE THEM." - FRANCIS OHACHO, PRESIDENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH, OAU.

By Mercy Ojegbola  NCB: Can we meet you? Francis: I am Francis Fortunatus Ohacho, popularly known as Sael. A part four student in the Department of English, Obafemi Awolowo University, I am the incumbent president of the department's students body. NCB: What motivated you to run for the position of President? Francis: I would like to use cliché pumped up phrases like I'm led by my passion for service and all.  People often say they knew I was going for presidency from part one due to my proactiveness, but really I didn't have the Presidency in mind till late second semester of part two.  And that's because I have only wanted to support from the sides, being a significant catalyst for development wherever I am. So I've had roles like Vice President and Fin Sec in mind, but not president. I didn't think I had it. My motivation, in summary, would be the realisation of how efficient I can be to an administration. And I don't doubt it, that with the help of the t...

Afeez: Yes. I chose English myself. Actually, when I was in SSS 3, I was indecisive on whether I should pursue a degree in Law or English.
