When it comes to fashion, students certainly know their stuff. From amazing charity shop finds and high street bargains to designer brands and athleisure wear, there was plenty of style on display at the Aberdeen University Students Association’s second-hand market. Here they talk us through their outfits.
Maggie McCulloch, 20, from Aberdeen Primary education. My beret is from Amazon, my jacket, bag and top are from charity shops, my trousers are from Monki, my belt is from H&M and my trainers are from Sketchers. I only wear three colours: black, white and red.
I find that limiting myself to that colour palette means that I can try lots of different styles. I also have a huge tie collection. I love vintage clothes and I enjoy looking round charity shops as you can find more unique pieces.
I love Monica from Friends. I love the style in the 90s and 2000s. Daniel Heltberg, 19, from Virginia in the US and now lives in Aberdeen Environmental science.
My trainers are from Ecco, my trousers are from American Eagle, my shirt is from Harmont & Blaine, my t-shirt is an old one and my belt is from India. I try not to worry too much about clothes, I just like to wear something comfortable. I recently visited a vintage fair at Dunbar Town House which was great.
I try to get second-hand clothes as there’s less of an impact on the environment. One brand I really like is United By Blue as they have sustainable clothes. I don’t have one.
