    Many schools with uniforms do not allow direct modification of the uniforms, but will allow accessories and small additions. If you are unsure of what exactly you can and cannot do, check with the office beforehand.

    Tasteful pins are a good non-permanent addition to your jacket or sweater. Adding new buttons to your jackets and shirts is a small but individual touch. Adding colorful ribbon to the edges of your clothing (or the top of your socks) is also a small but effective way to alter your uniform. Iron-on patches are great, but only if they are allowed. If you are not sure about permanently affixing something to your uniform, use safety pins and pin the patches on.

    This is probably the easiest way to change up a boring look. Adding things like hair clips, clip in extensions, jewelry, makeup, nail polish, and socks can change the whole look of an outfit.

    This is where you can go crazy, if your school allows additions. A bright pink trench coat? Why not! Bright blue leggings? Go for it! If you don't have shoes that you are assigned, choose shoes that really show off who you are. Preppy folks can wear moccasins or Mary Jane shoes, punky/emo students look great in converse high tops or plaid slip-ons. Backpacks are another great way to show off your personal style.

    Let them tell you what's wrong and then fix it if you have to. If it looks good, teachers won't write you up they will actually commend you on your style. If they give you detention carefully show them your loophole and get off with a warning.

    Although you cannot change the school uniform policy, you can change how you interpret it. There are a variety of blazers, slacks, skirts and button down shirts out there. Find one that you feel comfortable in, but still complies with school policy.

    If the colors are blue, white and black, but you have been wearing a white shirt, blue skirt and black shoes every day of your school life, go wild! If you have no money and your parents are tightening their purse strings, customize your clothes. On a white shirt sew on black and blue felt patches and make a black, white and blue felt tie by braiding yarn and tying it like a tie!

    • If you have medium hair, tie it up with a colorful band with a headband or let it flow, be confident.
    • Long hair should be tied up high up or let down with a headband for a preppy look.
    • The tomboy short hair should be with a headband or clip. Also nice if plain.

    Do different hairstyles every day. To switch it up a bit, put on some highlighter.

    My school has a uniform and doesn't allow anything else; even shoelaces have to be black. I can only wear my hair in a ponytail and can't wear makeup. What can I do?

    Focus on things you can control; develop a great skin care routine, wear cute but simple jewelry, and try learning how to do undetectable makeup.

      Warnings

      • Some teachers can be picky and tell you to take it off, so try to stay away from them or don't wear it when you have them for a class.
        Thanks
      • Try not to go overboard, because you can look like you've been trying to be a showoff.
        Thanks
      • Try to avoid hanging tempting things off of key chains on your bag, or you might find that someone steals them!
        Thanks
      • Prepare to face the dangers of Headmasters and Teachers nagging you about uniform.
        Thanks
      • Don't copy anyone unless you've got permission! If you copy someone they might not like it and might start to hold a grudge against you. Do not copy if the person is popular and you don't have their permission - most people will listen to whatever the popular person says and agree with them. This probably means you will rapidly lose friends.
        Thanks
