If there’s anything we love more than buying our school supplies each fall (can someone figure out how to bottle the smell of No. 2 pencils please!), it is buying our back-to-school outfits. We asked some of our Rugby store associates to fill us in on what they need to be their best autumnal, studious selves. Says Jose in our Chicago store, “When I hit snooze too many times and I am late for class, I throw my stuff in my tote, grab my cardigan and am out the door!” (See, men?!
We told you a cardigan fixes everything!)

Meanwhile Jack in our Seattle stores says: “It may be over a hundred degrees down in L.A., but what everyone forgets is how cold it gets in the mornings and nights — especially in the Valley, where I go to school. Coming from Seattle, where rain is looming around every corner, I have learned that wearing layers is the key to difficult weather. With a simple T, an oxford and a sweatshirt, all types of weather can be tolerated.”

Mallory in Chicago adds, “First impressions are key for the first day of school. I’ll be wearing a fashion rugby and my skinny jeans.” We couldn’t agree with Mallory’s attitude more! What will you wear to hit the books this fall?
