What to wear to the apocalypse
Just because it’s the apocalypse doesn’t mean you have to look like you live in District 12.
1. Chapeau (French for Hat; 2 years of French well spent) - A wide-brimmed hat will protect you from sun/wind/rain and bad hair days, which lets face it will be abundant during the apocalypse.
2. Don’t Freeze. – Nights are cold and unless you learn to light fires out of twigs you’ll need a nice warm coat to keep you warm. Keep the colors neutral (don’t make it easier for them to spot you) and versatile and you’ll be on your way to a stylish survival.
3. It’s in the Bag – Not to be a bummer but you probably won’t be using that back-pack for school anymore, so it might as well help you in your new life. Another good one is old camping gear, but any durable bag with straps will suit you just fine.
4. Casual Fridays for Life – Good news, you’ll be spending the rest of your (foreseeable) life in jeans! (Bad news: It’s the apocalypse, but you already knew that). They may start out uncomfortable, but raw denim jeans are the saving grace for the survivor on the go. Once you break them in, these jeans will form to your body like a second skin.
5. Boots - Walking endless expanses of abandoned highways? Running for your life from hovering space shinies? Leave the sandals, flip-flops and chucks at home. Your choice in shoes may be the difference between life and death. Stick with insulated boots with arch support for maximum comfort.
