Your school uniform should make you feel good about yourself and should be stylish. They are not meant to be boring. Let's look at things you can experiment with, to look pretty in your school uniform. Well-Fitting Uniform Your uniform should fit you well and should not be baggy or too tight. It should be well ironed and in a perfect fit. It should enhance your body structure making you look smart. Alter your Uniform You can shorten the length of your skirt, keeping it above the knee. This will enhance your legs and nothing looks better than a short and a well fitting skirt. Similarly, you can also shorten your sleeves, if they are too long or just fold them (if you can carry if off), it will look smart. Another style you can experiment with is by combining a well fitting skirt with a baggy shirt (not very baggy). It looks pretty cool. Use your creative outfit ideas and give your uniform your style and touch Accessorize Accessorize with a smart tie or a scarf or a jacket on your uniform. There are different ways of accessorizing with a scarf and a jacket. You can wear a scarf in so many different ways; you can tie a scarf around your neck- like a tie, you can also tie it sideways on your neck. You can wear a tie and experiment with hair bands too. In case of accessorizing with jewelry, wear cool and small earrings, neck-pieces with a bracelet. Optimal Make-up Heavy makeup on a school uniform is not a cool idea. Try keeping a natural look; apply a foundation to camouflage blemishes. Highlight your eyes using a liner and a mascara. Use a lip loss or a lipstick to glisten your lips and use a little blush. Flawless Skin Having a beautiful skin is the most attractive thing on a person. Beautiful-flawless skin with the above makeup or even without it will make you look pretty. Take care of your skin and don't experiment with harmful products to look nice. Keep it simple by drinking lots of water, eating healthy food, maintaining good hygiene and exercising regularly. Manicured Nails Maintain clean and beautiful nails. Color them or try some nail art work on it. Dirty nails are a big turn off. Well-Set Hair Your hair takes almost 50% of the credit in contributing to your prettiness. There is so much you can do with your hair, so many school hairstyles you can try. You can tie a high ponytail, a side ponytail or leave them open with a pretty hair-band. Keep your hair in a good condition don't use harmful products on your hair. Trim them and style them by straightening them or curling them. Use a Deodorant It is very important that you smell nice. Carry a deodorant with you to school and use it after you've played a sport or a dance practice to avoid body odor. Footwear If there are no restrictions with the kinda footwear you should wear, there are so many options for you to experiment with. Try tennis shoes or ballet flats or some matching formal trendy shoes that don't have high heels. High heels are not recommended as they do not collaborate with the activities you do in school. They can be uncomfortable for brisk walking or running. Wear the Right Attitude Even if you have a no makeup and no accessories on you, you can still look nice if you carry yourself confidently and with a good attitude. Right attitude is the attitude that merges with the real you. Don't walk or sit clumsily; maintain an upright back posture. Your body language speaks everything about who you are. Bags Carry cool and funky bags to school; it adds to your overall look. Experiment with contrast colors or with sober colors and with different styles. It is good to look pretty and dress up, but don't overdo it. Nothing in excess is good! Style and flaunt but don't let it take over your mind and change you into a different person. Beauty is a true expression of who you are. The coolest girls are never the ones that have the prettiest face or the best bodies; they're the ones with their own unique style and look. They are the ones who are true to who they are." ~ Wendy Zomnir
