Summer is over, you have a sun kissed tan, and you are feeling energized and motivated to meet new boys at school... err, I mean you feel motivated to get straight A’s. The first day of school is fun because, really, it is just about catching up with people and getting your schedule for the semester. So, no thinking is involved! We like that.
Since first impressions last a lifetime…. make a statement without being too over the top. If you wear a pair of pants or shorts that are statement makers, then make sure your top is subtle. For example: if you have a pair of denim shorts with jewels around the waist, then match it with a plain t-shirt. This strategy keeps the focus on the shorts. JUST SAY NO to too much bling!
A few options for day one include: a sundress, white jeans, denim leggings, or slacks with a striped top or floral blouse. Often, the first day of school is a little dressier, so don’t be afraid to wear a dress or skirt. Make sure, though, that it is not too short. A wrap dress with some strappy sandals and a scarf, for example, would work well, too. Bring a cardigan to put over your arms in case it is cold inside or you want more coverage.
Wear what you KNOW you look good in and also makes you feel well. Always leave something to the imagination, and don’t reveal too much. Remember, you are only in high school! Don’t be an attention whore and have everyone hating on you on the first day! Wardrobe Wire Girls are classy, not trashy.
