School Merch & Denim
Repping your school and looking iconic? Say less. School merch pairs perfectly with laid-back denim styles for an effortless cool girl look. Our collection includes jersey-inspired styles, cute mini shorts and tees.
Style tips:
Go for mid or low-rise slouchy jeans with oversized sweatshirts/jerseys/tees. This is just one of the cute ways to wear a football jersey
Try a more fitted, cropped school top with skinny jeans tucked into boots (trust us!)
Mix in denim shorts (yes, even jorts) and add cowboy or biker boots for a western vibe
Boxy school sweaters/tees paired with mini shorts slays every time
Throw on an oversized tee, some slouchy low-rise denim and chunky sneakers for an easy, comfortable OOTD
For the game day’s you’re in the mood to dress up for, a long sleeve dress is the move. They’re flattering, comfortable, and pair effortlessly with a cute pair of boots.
Styling tips:
Off-the-shoulder knit dresses (extra points for studded detailing)
Long sleeved body-hugging LBDs or styles with fluted sleeves
Add cowboy boots, biker boots, or classic riding boots to finish the look
Want something casual but still cute? Athleisure is your go-to! The ultimate cool girl outfit formula always starts with some sleek activewear. If you know game day will be a long one, a comfortable athleisure look should be the first thing you reach for. Think leggings, cropped jackets, and your favorite accessories. These styles will come in handy for those winter football game outfits where you want to feel extra cozy.
Here’s how we’re styling athleisure looks:
Full-length or flared leggings paired with a staple zip-up hoodie
Cropped bomber jacket styled with a dad cap for cool-girl energy
Finish the look with an oversized slouchy bag to carry your essentials
Pro tip: pick a color palette that works with the college/team you’re supporting!
This classic combo is a forever fave, and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Perfect for game days that roll into after parties, your mini dress and denim jacket will never fail you.
How to wear it:
Reach for a black, white or neutral mini dress, so you can easily accessorise with your team color
Layer with an oversized denim jacket (we’re loving mid wash right now, but any tone works!)
Add flat boots, chunky sunnies, and keep jewelry minimal for cool girl vibes
Before the game starts, supporters will have a pre-game party in the parking lot. This is super common, so make sure to leave yourself plenty of time to get ready! These are often the best part of game day, so make sure you don’t miss it.

Afterparty
If your game day turns into a night out, plan ahead. Wear boots that can go from bleachers to a bar, and bring a small crossbody bag or clutch for later.
