The Look

1. Classic Campus Casual

3. Polo Shirt + Chinos

For a smarter vibe, use The Rest Is Money Polo Shirt ($34.99). Tuck it into khaki chinos and finish with loafers. This works for presentations or meeting with professors. You look put-together without trying too hard.

4. Tank Top + Shorts

When the weather's still warm, The Rest Is Money Tank Top ($19.99) pairs with cargo shorts. Add slides or sneakers. Lightweight and breathable, it's ideal for outdoor breaks or gym sessions between classes.

5. Layered with a Flannel

Tie a flannel shirt around your waist over the Classic T-Shirt. This adds a pop of color and texture. Works with any bottom - jeans, joggers, shorts. It's an easy way to switch up your look throughout the day.
