I've been going through a shift of styles and been trying out something new. I've found the color brown to suit me well lately and Dark Academia is just right for that, but still keeps the elements of my old style I used to love so much.

Shirts/Sweaters
Just a plain sweater is a great start, since it's all about layering. On top of this you can put any cardigan/ vest you want to achieve the look.
Women’s Casual Pullover Sweater
Same goes with this too, I'm just putting more options to choose from.
3 Pack Fine Knit Crew Neck Jumpers
This is giving me that vintage vibe that I feel like fits perfectly with the aesthetic.

You can layer this on top of something or wear it on it's own.

Combine this with the sweater from above and boom! You're already half way there to achieve that Dark Academia style.

Just for some variety.

Cardigans/ Vests
I absolutely love the knitted look of cardigans, they look and feel cozy!

These sorts of vest are the epiphany of the whole aesthetic. Without this it can't be complete.

Layers, layers, and more layers!

This print and color are the exact match.

This is divided into skirts and pants.
From what I've seen short skirts aren't particularly the aesthetic, though the print and color of these are exact. Besides, I'm more into shorter ones.

Keeping it on theme with the color and print.

Now this is what you should wear if you want to 100% complete the aesthetic. Long skirts are a must!

Pants are another important piece of the puzzle. These, sort of, checkered pants are exactly Dark Academia vibe!

Simple, but elegant and perfect for mixing and matching.

Accessories
Can't go out in a skirt without at least something warming your legs!
Seamless Leggings - Dark brown
Laces, ruffles... All of this is very important when choosing which socks to put on.

I love the ruffles on top of them.

This is just perfect! You can go with bows for a more cutesy look, but can remove them for a more reformed look.
Layered Socks with Detachable Bow
Absolute must have!
Cream White Stripe Lace Socks
I just LOVE how leg warmers look on a person. Might not be Dark Academia entirely but it could be implemented.

Nothing without cute bows in your hair!

These are entirely optional but I just love how they make my brown hair stand out.

I love shoulder bags, they are just the right size and length.
