Back To School



This Thursday I went back to school as a Sophmore. Even though I've only been at school for about 3 days,we have so much homework! It's like the middle of the year already. Ever since Freshman year, I've been going to a private all-girls school. So you can say, I've been in private school for about a year. There are no guys to impress, but I always make an effort to dress up. Our uniform is pretty plain: a grey skirt and white shirt with the optional sweater or vest. We can also wear blue sweats,would that be fashionable though? The outfit pictured above is the style I try to go for.Very girly and preppy with lots of pink. Acessorizing is what I really try to do when I go to school, where everyone is basically wearing the same thing. Flats are also a cute and equally comfy alternative to tennis shoes.



The rest of my school life, I've been in public school where we had "color codes". Basically students could wear whatever they wanted to as long as it was the bland colors: black, white and grey. But students could pretty much bend the rules a bit. On the right side of the above picture was my style back then. I was really into Abercrombie and Hollister back then. I took my color code for granted a lot. Complaining that I couldn't wear my light washed destroyed denim to school. For me, the HCO and A&F look was the ultimate fashion. If I went back to a similar school today, my style would be quite different. I'd probably try to pull off the colorful backpack and some shorts. Since our color choices are limited, I'd dress in basics and go for an urban look. Really different from the preppy acessories I sport today.
