DICKIES 874: (COP)
CARGO PANTS: (MAYBE) It is no secret that cargos are in right now, from the Miami Vice pants to the parachute-style cargo. No matter your gender or style, cargos are super flattering and I have been wearing them for years. I do, however, see them as more of a trend than a timeless piece, and can envision them losing their popularity as everyday wear. Unless you are seriously in love with them (regardless of if they were out of style), I would not recommend buying a pair.

Another pant trend going around is the Dickies 874s. The rolled down Dickies microtrend is something we’ve all seen, and if it is something you are into, feel free to join. One thing that separates this microtrend from the rest is that once it dies, you are left with a pair of super high-quality work pants you can roll back up. Also, they are available in lots of colours, so that is a plus! These are a cop for me and I think we will be seeing a lot more of them around campus this coming season.
AIRPOD MAX: (DROP) There is nothing better than a good pair of headphones for university, and the Airpod Max has recently emerged as one of the most popular fashion accessories. Even though they look incredible, this one is still a hard drop given the price and quality. The best bet if you are still interested in buying into this trend is to get a pair of Bose or Sony headphones half price as they still look cool, have noise-cancelling, and are much higher quality than the AirPod Max.
