Ahead, I’ve gathered 12 study date outfit ideas that are as cute as they are comfy 👗🩷, along with some styling tips and friendly reminders 💡💄. Enjoy! ❤️💫

1. A cute spring study date fit

For a cute spring and summer study day fit, picking the right color is key! 🌸

Think pastel and refreshing hues like baby pink, light blue, cream and more for the vibe! 🎨

To embrace the carefree vibes to the fullest, throw on that straw hat and straw belt to complete the look! 👒


For the girlies who need a study date checklist, here’s the checklist!

For a study date, bring these essentials:

  • Your study materials (textbooks, notes, laptop – fully charged please if you don’t want to bring chargers)
  • Notebook & pens/pencils/ highlighter
  • Water bottle to stay hydrated

  • Small snacks that aren’t messy or noisy
  • Headphones (in case you need to listen to material/ wanna stay focus)Beats Studio Pro Noise cancelling headphones is my favourite!
  • Chargers for your devices
  • Mints or gum (subtle but thoughtful)

2. Off-shoulder top as a forgiving fit

For the minimalist girlies who wanna dress simple but cute, an off-shoulder sweater like this is just oh-so-flattering. ✨

As a chubby-faced girl, I love wearing off-shoulder tops A LOT as they just highlight the feminine shoulder line and, in the meantime, make my face appear to be smaller by comparison. 💁‍♀️

If you’re going to a study date with a crush, well, you know what to do! :p

3. When in doubt, bring a cardigan

When it comes to a library or café date, it’s always best to bring a cardigan with you, as when you sit 3 hours down the road, you’ll feel freezing cold. 🧶❄️

Draping the cardigan over the cute white crop top is such a cute look!

And now when I see the Matcha, it makes me crave one as well. 🍵

4. When in doubt, throw on a headband

For my fashion girlies who wanna spice up the otherwise plain study date fit, I’d say throw on a headband. 💫

Trust me, this gives out so much more personality without trying too hard, even in the regular top and bootcut pants fit.

By the way, I am loving the CRZ Yoga pants these days — so comfy and booty-flattering — try them out, loves! 👖❤️


As for the girlies who wanna elevate the look further, try finishing up the look with boots. 👢

It’s screaming baddie vibes lowkey. 💅

5. Stay cute in pleated skirt

When it comes to a cute preppy look, pleated skirt just work wonders.

I’m loving this fresh spin on this LBD – featuring a pleated skirt with a tube top design, delivering modern uniform-core vibes 💫

Add frilly socks and chunky Mary Janes for that perfect blend of preppy girl summer aesthetic. 👗👞✨


A styling hack:

When you want to look put together or convince others you’ve thoughtfully curated your look, limit your palette to just three colors maximum. ✨

For example, in this outfit, she’s wearing dark blue, white, and brown. 👗

By keeping color blocks minimal across your body, you’ll visually elongate your figure and appear taller! 📏💫

7. Button down x waistcoat study fit look

Classic button down and waistcoat look, anyone? 👔

This is a fit that doesn’t really come across the mind, but it’s actually so cute! ✨

Together with the baggy jeans, this outfit is so comfy for a half-day study session while remaining stylish. 📚

Plus, the design of this waistcoat draws eyes to the chest area and creates an hourglass body shape for you. ⏳

8. Add a claw clip to hold your hair

I always recommend claw clips to my friends and they end up telling me ‘I regret not using these earlier!’ 🙌

Yup, claw clips aren’t just for the aesthetic but also for the practicality.

When you constantly have to look down and flip through textbooks, you just want something to put your hair up. 📚

I tried the high pony before — that’s cute but I can’t really do it for long periods as it kind of damages my hair. 💇‍♀️

So now claw clips are my better alternative — plus they’re just super flattering! ✨📎

I’m loving these Acrylic claw clips (so Instagrammable!), check this out later to see if this is your style as well!
