As I'm coming to the end of my time here in Aberdeen, (two weeks left here!) I've decided to write a post about the fashion I've seen while living here. A lot of people have similar ways of dressing as each other and I have seen certain trends pop up among girls from class and on the street. Here are some key pieces that you can buy if you want the 'Scottish Girl' look!

| Missguided Quilted Bomber |
Bomber jackets: This is definitely a trend seen everywhere this season but I highly doubt I've gone a single day here without seeing a girl my age wearing one. This kind of jacket is actually pretty good for Scottish weather when it's chilly but not snowing or raining. I really like this type of jacket for a sporty vibe.

| New Balance 620's |
Running shoes: The most practical trend out there! There are so many nice sneakers in stores these days and they are perfect for casual days at school. I find it hard to resist buying multiple pairs while over here, for the simple fact I won't have room in my suitcase! New Balance, Nike and Adidas are the way to go.

| Topshop Joni jeans |
High-waisted, ripped jeans: Girls here are all about the knee slash in their jeans, which you don't have to buy a new pair to achieve. Just grab your scissors and cut a line at the knee and voila you're trendy! Also extremely high waisted jeans without front pockets are popular here too, perfect for crop tops.

| Boohoo Crop Top |
Cropped turtlenecks: A bit contradictory, but good for fall since you can be flirty with the length but covered up at the neck to keep warm! I used to hate turtlenecks but now that they're everywhere this season, I admit I own a couple (hey they're practical!).

| New Look Boxy Purse |
Structured bags: Not many girls at Robert Gordon carry actual backpacks, they much prefer structured leather tote bags. I really like the juxtaposition of wearing a boxy purse with a super casual outfit.
Those are the key pieces I've seen during my studies, it'll definitely be interesting to see how these trends are interpreted back home once I return!
