Make a school uniform cute

Question

my school uniform is a red plaid skirt, a white blouse and a blue sweater. i don't see anything that can possibly make this cute. I want to make suspenders on the red skirt and wear it over the white blouse and not wear the blue sweater but i don't think altering the uniform is prohibited. other than changing my hair, are there any other ways to make this uniform cuter? also, on the student rule book, it states that no fashionable accesories are allowed. does that mean EVERYTHING?!

Answer 1

sometimes, its not just the uniform..

if you use them neatly,

they will look good.

i think that the accesories that you cant wear are

belts, chains and such

but i think that you can wear earings, bracelets, necklaces.

if your not sure,

ask you teachers on the first day of school

dont worry about your uniform,

cuz everyone will be wearing it :)

Answer 2

Everyone will have the same problem! First, you would not believe how sloppy some uniforms get. Try spray starching and pressing your white blouse so it is very crisp and iron your skirt. How about monograms on one sweater and not another. Think about your legs - stockings? tights? Socks? Color coordinate! Think shoes for different effects - tennis one day for more casual, penny loafers or mary janes the next for dressier. Polish them!! Then of course, all about your hair (curl it, braid it, tail it, barrettes, headbands, ribbons, really pay attention). Schools are usually pretty strict the first couple of weeks, then relax. Watch and see what jewelry is allowed and if things like rolling your sleeves, tying your sweater, etc., is okay. Uniforms may all be alike, but you don't have to look alike.
