*not sure if this is in the right category*

Okay, so I'm starting college on the 31st of August. I'm studying to be an accountant and I'm really excited. However, I'm not sure what to wear to my classes or what to do with my hair and makeup since I want to make a good impression for my teachers whom I'll be working with for projects for businesses. Anyone's got an idea?
-I think suits are way too formal
-It's too cold here for skirts and dresses and I'm not a tights kind of girl
-I will continue to live at my parents house and take the bus (it's only 40 minutes) so I can go all out on makeup

Personally, I would wear a nice blouse and skinny jean. with some wedges or flats. just make sure you look good! as for the hair, low bun, half up - half down, high pony, even a messy bun ( if done correctly ) would work. I wouldn't overdo the makeup, you don't want to look cakey. I would stick to foundation, concealer, some neutral eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara.

I would go for a dark dark "intego" denim, or a back denim though, continuing on with what Shreya said. Then on the first day, I would straighten your hair, for I feel like, personally I always look older, and more put together. Then after they get an impression of you, I wouldn't worry to much about doing your hair, just do it how you want to (I always wear mine natural so I hate using heat on it) then pull the front pieces back. I would just do your "everyday makeup" not too too much, but enough where you look nice and confidant and put together :) hope I helped!

I like these for hair ideas, and for makeup I would keep it pretty simple, neutral tones, I love wearing full glam, but I think for business it's a little out of place
