2. A pair of Converse
There’s a reason why Converse have been popular shoes for the last few decades and it’s because they really don’t go out of style. These platform Converse are a reinvented version of the classic and are a great everyday option for when you want a bit of height, or to wear on a more casual night out.

6. Sliders for the communal areas
It’s a well-known fact that uni kitchens or shared bathrooms aren’t always the cleanest of places. Because of that, you definitely won’t want to be walking around the communal areas of your flat barefoot so a pair of sliders is a must to tackle the probably sticky floors. Not to mention, no one will judge you if you turn up to a lecture in sliders either, we’ve all done it at one point.
