What clothes are you taking to university?

I have:

20 home tops
10 home pants
20 going out tops
7 jeans

Is this enough? How many party dresses do you have?

ALSO, can I wear some of my home tops (indoor clothes) outside?? Or is that not acceptable?

Must I change everyday?

I don't understand. Indoor clothes? What?

Just take enough clothes to change your top and bottoms every day for a fortnight, a couple of things to wear on a night out, something formal incase your Uni calls for it, and obviously lots of underwear! Nobody will notice if you wear a top more than once, just don't become known for living in the same outfit all week when you run out of washing money.

I took my whole wardrobe to university, but it sounds like thats plenty as long as you do a wash once a week or so.

Do you go to sleep in the same outfit as you wear all day?

I have about six outfits I wear. The fact you have "indoor" shirts.make me think you are beyond privileged.

What the heck are home pants?

I just took largely all I owned that I still wear, and packed mainly for winter since you can switch out the jumpers for warm weather clothes over Xmas hols.
But taking all may not be an option for all so just take whatever. You can always wash and buy more.

No-one cares what you wear. Seriously. Some people go to the shop in pajamas. Some people turn up to lectures, hungover in a hoodie - if they turn up at all. As long as you have clean clothes for each day it's no big deal.

Why don't you just sleep in your pajamas?

Do you wear the same clothes for days on end at home?

Do you go to bed at home in the clothes you've been wearing all day?

Next you'll be telling us about your horror at being told you have to wash your clothes.

I do the bit in bold, wear the same set of top and bottoms for like 3/4 days, I thought that was normal? :s-smilie:

I cba to wear a different set of clothes at home everyday, didn't think it mattered if they didn't get dirty or smelled?

Op 20 home tops is waay too much imo, I have like 7 sets of tops and bottoms that I wear at home and rotate. I have more day wear stuff and a few items for going out.

As do I if I'm just dossing about in the house. I was trying to get the OP to think, as living away at uni is not really that different to living at home, you just need to be a bit more self sufficient.
