School dress code ideas?????
Hi, so I go to a school where there is a really strict dress code. Any ideas for things to wear?
Our Dress Code is:
Collared shirts- all collared shirts that aren't polos have to be tucked in with a belt
Absolutely no t-shirts or spaghetti straps
No advertisements or name brands ( for example I couldn't wear a shirt that had the 2008 Summer Olympics or a sweatshirt with Aeropostale across the front)
You MUST wear a belt if you have belt loops
No shorts after November 24 and until April 19th
All shorts and skirts should be no more than 2 and a half inches above your knee (they will measure it!)
No jeans
No sneakers
No shoes with more than a inch heel
There's more but it wouldn't fit in this box.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
oh god. honey i definitely feel your pain! i went to a school exactly like this one for three years, but sadly, i tended to break the rules lol. i highly suggest that you DO NOT follow my lead. please stick to the rules, because they will enforce them.
OKAY, now for my advice...
you kinda have to figure out your style before you get into this, but I'll give you some suggestions. bright colors are a way to stand out, this type of dress code usually doesn't allow for obscene pictures on the front, so stick to bright patterns or designs that you like. I also think button down shirts are very chic and a lot sexy... if done right! you can get some in different colors, but for school, make sure you buy tank tops so you can layer underneath so you don't look TOO sexy.
Ugh. the belt thing. it sucks i know, but this is an opportunity for you to buy really cool and unusual belts that can be conversation starters as well.
i'm sure it gets a little chilly in school, so go ahead and buy some cute jackets and hoodies to layer over your shirt of choice.
accessories: this is a dream come true! there are no limitations baby! buy whatever suits your fancy and don't be afraid to pile it on: big chunky bracelets, or a bunch of slim ones, a huge bold watch, fun rings, earrings, headbands and there is sooooo much more! accessories should be your best friend girl!
Bottom Line:
i know you see this dress code as a restriction, but your just gonna have to think outside the box!
and again, accessorize, accessorize, accessorize!!!

Ah, reminds me of High School.
Well, there's always accessories. Jewelery, crazy hair, makeup, little pins with bands or symbols on them, neckties, interesting belts...etc
You could always go for the preppy-chic look with a tailored blazer and long white socks.
