Answer 1

yeah i agree with the 1st answer.

don't just decide to be preppy and then buy clothes to go along with that, buy clothes that you like and some stereotype name will eventually come along with that, trust me its better and you won't seem so fake because lets face it you can't just call yourself something and make it true. go into a store (any store that you like) and forget everything you think you know. don't think about wanting a preppy look or what everyone else one else wears and just pick something that you like. eventually after doing this you own personal style will evolve. and you won't be that everyday clone wannabe like everyone else.

Answer 2

First off dont say " hip "

Answer 3

i totally went through this transformation last year.  Its totally worth it trust me.  I look younger than 16 too.  Before i changed i was called "okay" but now guys are calling me "hot".  yay! lol.  pig tails are REALLY cute.  not up ones....but down ones.  they are ahdorable wen they are down and they are both curls.  so just curl both into a lose wave before you put it in.  you can get cullers at dollar stores for just the same quality as expensive ones if you don't have a curling iron.  also if you have long bangs, or even short ones, they just can't be too short you can pull them back and put a small clip holding it back.  this can work if you have grown out bangs too. another good idea is to braid your bangs and pull them back with the clip.  i always get complments on that. since your blonde, go to CVS and get blonde colored bobby pins and pull back your bangs on one side for a simple look.  also pulling the sides of your hair back in a 1/2 up 1/2 down do looks great. a high pony tail is always a classic.  if you pull your bangs behind your ears (if they are grown out) then leave them in front for once.  put one behind one ear and one in front of the other.  if you do the 1/2 up 1/2 down do you can twist the end of the hair tie (where you tied the two ends together) and twist them back with the end pointing to your scalp and keep twisting it so it will look like twists being pulled back.  you can also pull 2 braids back.  a lot of ppl in my school like french braiding.  I suggest piggie french braids where you french braid pig tails.  also you can pull your hair into a down pony tail and then push it up with a big clip and let the ends of it flow over like fountain.  try a new hair texture...if ur curly go straight and if your straight go curly. for more hair tips go to seventeen.com and look at their hair styles and tips.  make sure they look okay to you though, because some of their hair styles are wayyyy "out there" for school.  you can also look up "pursebuzz" on youtube.com.  I LOVE HER!  she has the ABSOLUTE BEST hairstyle ideas in the world. they are mostly easy and are totally wearable.  all those hairstyles take under 15 minutes btw. most only take 5.  For the highlight idea, i dunno how good beach blonde looks with dirty blonde but if you like it go for it.  layers are in right now, but i shouldn't tell you what hairstyle to pick.  but layers are totally versatile and look good on most people.  just make sure they frame your face.  here are some cute clothing links that are really in right now.  most teens wear things like hollister, abercrombie and fitch, aeropostale and american eagle.  they also wear wet seal, forever 21, delia's and you can even find some trendy things at kholes or target.  pac sun (pacific sunwear) has some really cute accesories too.

^just a few cute things i found.  make up should be natural.  no more than 3 coats of mascara.  if you have pale skin like i do, don't go for the "very black" mascara. go for black brown. i have brown lashblast from covergirl and i love it.  after you do that you can also put on a coat of clear mascara to get the curl and length in your lashes.  then all you need is a little concealer for the imperfections you may or may not have.  also throw on some lip gloss.  it can be tinted, but not TOO noticeable because its just weird wen girls wear lipstick to school .  covergirl is the best makeup that i ever came in counter with.  if you want you can use a little eye liner OR eye shadow.  don't use 3 things JUST on your eyes.  if you have blue eyes i HIGHLY suggest NO blue eyeshadow.  it totally masks your eyes and make them look small and weird.  you can also use eye circle makeup which covers eye circles (duh) if you didn't get enough sleep one night.   hope i helped! =)
