Wear a statement jacket on your way to and from school when it’s cold. Get a pair of fun shoes if you don’t have to wear a specific pair. Put on a pair of socks in a fun color to show your style. Opt for a bow tie instead of a regular tie. Layer a lace camisole under your shirt and let it peek over the collar. Roll up the sleeves of a guy’s uniform for a more laid back look.
Pick a colorful bomber jacket, a classic denim coat, an edgy leather jacket, or a polished wool coat. Most schools don’t regulate what kind of coats students can wear outside of school, so use this freedom to show your personal style and add some edge to your uniform. Remember that if you get cold during class, you might not be able to wear your jacket if it doesn’t fit the dress code. Keep an acceptable sweater or cardigan in your locker in case you do feel cold and need to cover up. Most uniforms require that your shoes are a specific color, but don’t specify a style or material. Pick a pair of oxfords, flats, or even high-top canvas sneakers in that color. Decide if you want them to be patent leather, suede, or other type of material or pattern to show off your fashion knowledge.  Make sure your shoes are comfortable and you’re able to walk in them. Your school might restrict the type of shoe you can wear. Some schools don’t allow heels of any type, so check the dress code before you buy! Choose a pair of socks in a color that compliments your uniform. For a uniform that has prints, choose a solid-colored pair to keep the uniform from looking busy. If your uniform doesn’t have patterns, feel free to pick a pair of socks with a fun pattern or print.  If you’re having trouble matching a color to your uniform, pick a pair that include your school colors to make the look purposeful. For girls, you might be able to get away with wearing socks that have lace or crochet trim around the ankle. Most school dress codes allow students to wear either ties, bow ties, or “cross” ties. To make your outfit stand out, wear a patterned or solid-colored bow tie. If there’s a special occasion coming up, like Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, or Halloween, try to pick a themed bow tie with a fun pattern or print. Be sure to check your school dress code to make sure bow ties are allowed. If it doesn’t say that they’re forbidden, you can normally wear one since they’re considered more formal than a regular tie. This is a great way to add a pop of color to an otherwise dull uniform. Pick a color that complements your polo or blouse, and leave the top button undone if you’re allowed to. Make sure the lace is visible, but isn’t so revealing that your chest is showing.  Some strict schools may require that you have the shirt completely buttoned. Check your school handbook to see if you’re allowed to try this look. If you get told that you’re out of uniform, you can simply button the top button to cover up the cami. If you don’t have to wear a blazer or sweater, unbutton the cuffs of your shirt, and fold the sleeve in half so the cuff is at your elbow. Then, fold the sleeve in half again to cover the cuff with the sleeve of your shirt at the elbow. This will give a more carefree, rebel-looking style. Keep in mind that some schools won’t allow you to fold your sleeves like this. If your school doesn’t allow fully rolled, try half-rolling the sleeves up to your mid-arm.
