The weather in central Pennsylvania, especially around springtime, is bound to be temperamental. Unfortunately, aside from keeping a ready eye on the weather app, there’s not much we can do to plan ahead for the rapidly changing weather. Luckily, the outfits listed below are adaptable to spring and can help anyone stay comfortable and fashionable.

Classy, chic, timeless — Princess Diana was the people’s princess for a reason. Aside from the compassion and humanitarian work that she was well known for, she was a fashion icon as well. This look is perfect for going to class or taking a walk around campus.

All you need is a big sweater, biker shorts, tennis shoes, black sunglasses and simple gold jewelry.

2. The “Adam Sandler”

You’ve heard of little shirt, big pant? Get ready for big shirt, big pant. Nobody does Dad Style quite like Adam Sandler. If the paparazzi photos of him are anything to go by, Adam Sandler’s style will continue to exude both style and function.

For this look, you’ll need an oversized graphic T-shirt, big shorts (preferably basketball shorts) and athletic shoes or slippers. You could even throw on a baseball hat or sunglasses.
