Local finds to take your child’s school uniform game to the next level
With the school year here, it’s time to start making sure everyone’s uniforms are up to par. I think it’s safe to say that wearing a school uniform is either a blessing in disguise or a constant fight in the morning. From my personal experience of 12 years in plaid and Sperrys, uniforms are definitely associated with memories of a love-hate relationship.
On one hand, not having to pick out a new outfit every day is a fabulous convenience. However, with that being said, wearing the same thing every day, year after year, gets a little old. Side note: making the transition from wearing a jumper to wearing a skirt or skort was revolutionary for my uniform game. And luckily there are plenty of ways to allow your child to amp up their uniform game if they’re not old enough to make the jumper-to-skirt transition–accessorizing!
Upon first glance, most schools have seemingly strict policies regarding uniforms and what is, or isn’t allowed. However, with a little out-of-the-box thinking, and an eye for fashion, it can be easy to dress up your child’s look and allow them to feel and look their best in a sea of similarity. Below are a few of our picks that we think would complete any back-to-school look.Ā Click on the posts below for pricing and purchasing information:
