Hey /fa/. Starting uni in Australia shortly. Any suggestions for a relatively cheap uni bag. Preferably from a store within Australia but whatever

Also any general everyday stuff to wear to uni.

What are those type of sunglasses called?

>> No.7787951

>>7787917
This, or get a Herschel or Jansport and debrand them.

What to wear? Whatever you want. Nice, well-fitting basics won't do you wrong, with a couple of nice pieces if you've got them.
But wear whatever style you want; imma go to uni as a streetgoof three days in five

Where you going?

Yeah, I use a debranded Herschel and a Jansport (likewise) for heavier stuff, they're decent enough beaters

I respectfully disagree, I think people won't really care too much about what themselves/others are wearing unless somebody wears some meme pieces or some shit
If they do, nobody'd come in the first place
