Fall is just about here, which means football season is too. For me (Dianne) this is one of the best times of the year. While I love watching the games, I also love a great game day outfit. So I curated a list of some of my favorite wardrobe pieces, all with a little unique twist. I tried to find different and more feminine pieces like the maxi dress I am wearing and Jen’s leopard print sweatshirt. I hope you love them all!

And just so you know, we’re featuring our favorite teams (the University of Michigan and Michigan State University) in the images below, but pretty much all these pieces are available in all college teams.

Your Game Day Outfit – Dresses

We’re starting with dresses because that’s probably not the first thing you think of when planning your game day outfit. But it’s a fun and feminine look to consider!

Fun Leopard Print

How fun are these shirts? Especially if you don’t want to go “all-in” on your team’s colors, leopard is a great trendy option!

SHOP JEN’S SWEATSHIRT:

Sweaters

These are a great layering piece whether you’re tailgating or just watching from home.

Trendy & Unique Tops

If you want a more traditional look, but in a trendy or unique style, here are some great options for you.

Bottoms

We almost always start with tops when we think about our game day outfit. But you can start with the bottoms too. Here are some places to start – we’ve got leggings, sweatpants, shorts and bike shorts!

Your Game Day Outfit – Accessories

There are lots of ways to show your team spirit through accessories – whether it be in a small earring or a large tote bag. Here are some of our favorites!

JEWELRY

HAIR ACCESSORIES AND SUNGLASSES

If you’re at the game, you might want to keep the hair out of your face and your eyes protected:

SHOES & SOCKS

HANDBAGS

With handbags, if you are going to a stadium, be sure to check to see if you can bring in a bag at all, and if you can, what size it needs to be (or even be a clear bag). But here are some cute options, even for a home get-together.

As you know, we are big fans of K. Carroll Accessories and they have an entire line of their best selling Harper Crossbody bags in team colors. In many cases, they are small enough to bring into a stadium.

NAIL ART

We can always add a pop of team spirit to your nails! These come in almost any team color.

Your Game Day Outfit – Non-Team Varsity Wear

So, maybe you’re a sports fan, but don’t have a favorite team to root for. The good news is that “varsity wear” is so in style right now, that it’s not hard to find fun, non-team branded items. These pieces are fun and a great addition to your wardrobe.
