College-Kid-Approved: Unexpected, Stylish Wardrobe Finds From Walmart

These cool cargo-style pants will take them from class to on-campus events after dark. They’re made from a soft twill, so they feel comfy but won’t lose their fit.

This is what we call a staple: a form-fitting black cardigan that can work with nearly any style trend. Worn with casual jeans or layered over a dress, it’s like the LBD of the sweater world.

Wide-leg pants are having their moment in the sun again. This pair looks straight from the ‘90s.

“Soar Free, Fly High” is exactly the attitude you want to live by at college. Even better, this cozy pullover will keep any student warm on cool fall nights and looks great paired with jeans or matching joggers.

There’s no going prep without penny loafers. This pair will not only look great with jeans, shorts, miniskirts and maxi dresses, but the memory-foam insole is cushy enough for constant runs across the quad.

A Levi’s jean jacket is a classic for a reason: You know you’re getting quality denim with the perfect amount of pre-wash to give it that cool, broken-in look from the time the tags are clipped. This style features a little bit of stretch to make it that much more comfortable.

This cargo mini takes utility to the max: The short skirt packs in four pockets (two side, two cargo) to keep lip gloss, that college ID, hair ties and more essentials. It comes in a classic army green or a rich cherry cola, two wear-with-everything shades.

This bag is roomy enough for all the must-carries, but not so big and bulky that it’ll weigh a busy college student down. Plus, the clear design is ideal for quickly getting through security lines at concerts and campus events.

These are the perfect laid-back shoes for just about any occasion — including those early-morning classes when time is of the essence. A rubber outsole offers durability and traction, while the memory-foam insole and padded collar add an extra layer of comfort.

Elevate the streetwear game with this versatile 100-percent-cotton statement shirt. It can be buttoned up for a more formal look, or kept open with a graphic tee underneath.

This faux leather bomber can be mixed and matched with practically any style: prep, street, utility or layered with more denim. The ribbed knit cuffs and hem help it stand out from the crowd.

Finally, a backpack that’s both ergonomic and cool. It’s equipped with three outside pockets, two side pockets, a detachable zippered pouch and, of course, a padded laptop sleeve.
