How to Customize a School Uniform
School uniforms are very expensive and children outgrow them fast. There are a lot of ways to personalize and accessorize a school uniform. Children and especially teenagers like to be different and express individuality. Wearing the same clothes as everyone else will not let your child express their own personality.
Supply List
- Scissors
- Jewelry
- Ribbons
- Colored Laces
- Badges
- Hemming Tape
- Check all of your uniforms to make sure everything fits well. Wearing clothes that are too baggy or too big does not look good. Well-fitting clothing makes you look confident and stylish.
- Make sure that your skirt is not too short or too long. If you need to hem the skirt, use scissors and hemming tape. Some schools have a policy on the length of your skirt, so make sure you do not make it too short. Hemming your skirt will also keep it from unraveling and looking bad.
- Wear items like earrings and bracelets to put some color in your outfits. Use bows and ribbons in your hair that match your school uniform, if such accessories are allowed.
- Make a tie fashionable for boys by placing clips and badges on them as a form of embellishment.
- Add colored laces to tennis shoes or stickers to low-heeled shoes. Accessorize with different styles of shoes to show of your individual personality.
- Change the look of your hairstyle at least once a week for a new look every time.
- Show your personality off by experimenting with different makeup colors and styles.
