Brandy Must Haves

These are some shirts from Brandy that I’ve worn and as someone in college, they are so affordable yet in style, which is hard to find nowadays. This list mostly includes staples with some extra cute clothing items I would also recommend.

Classified as their pjs but can also be worn out, you could never tell the difference. Also this item is relatively cheap compared to other name branded clothing
Brandy Melville Usa-Amara Tank

Similar to the Amara Tank but is more simple and again cheaper than other pjs

If you’ve seen this shirt on the streets, this is where it’s from. It has a boat neck which is so comfortable and gives a more laid back look

This top is so cute and offers some depth to your outfit. Also the top is so supportive and can be worn without a bra if needed
Tiffany Gingham Tank

These pants are super basic but add a little more than just a flared leg or a draw string. These can totally be worn out and about and can double as cute pj bottoms.

This shirt definitely gives a beachy look while also doubling as a going out top if needed.
Brandy Melville USA-Arden Tank
 
Charlotte W profile picture
I personally have this shirt in white but in general the shirt is so soft and the quarter length buttons make the look more casual yet put together, which is usually hard to find in my closet.
Zelly Long Sleeve Ribbed Top

They have this zip-up in so many colors and I think it’s the perfect thing to wear when it’s cold or you don’t know what to wear. Plus, the quality is super nice so it can last throughout the seasons.

Thriftables

These items aren’t specific to any brand, but I find these items the most when at thrift stores such as Goodwill/St Vincent De Paul. They do have potential even if they look lousy on the rack, it just matters how you style them.

I find a lot of these types of jeans at the thrift stores and a lot of times they look over sized or washed out but with the right top it can really add to any look.

I find so many button ups at the thrift store and personally I think they go with almost anything and they’re super comfortable.

Urban Outfitters

I find Urban Outfitters actually has such a wide variety of clothes. They can be pricey but there’s definitely some more affordable staples that can be found. These are some of my favorites!

Kimchi Blue always has the most beautiful clothings, either staples or pops of color. In particular this cardigan is so elegant but affordable compared to similar cardigans.

Another peplum top but the buttons on this one add a more casual look while still helping put an outfit together.
BDG Brittney Square Neck Henley Babydoll Tee

I have this in white and it’s one of my favorite from Urban. It’s super breathable but the lace totally makes it pop out from other long sleeves.

Simple but cute with a neck-line adds some detail to the shirt!
BDG Drew Cap Sleeve Square Neck Cropped Tee

Levi’s are often sold at Urban Outfitters, and these type in particular I think fall under the Jorts category which are in trend right now, but you know they’ll last a lifetime because they’re Levi’s.

Low rise jeans are just somehow so flattering, especially when they’re baggy because they really accentuate whatever top you’re wearing.
BDG Teo Relaxed Low-Rise Bootcut Jean

Any sort of simple long sleeve is always a staple for me. They’re perfect for making an outfit look simple but they can also work well as a layering piece.

Sunny’s will always be in fashion and personally, these ones fit my face the best! (Coming from someone with a little bit of a wider face shape)

This cami is so elegant but it can really add something special for an outfit but can double as PJs.
