I don't think I'm going to be ready for the workload, the annoying teachers and the free periods. However, this year is going to be a bit of a bitter sweet year, as it's my last year at school. Which is sad and scary and exciting and confusing all at the same time.
Anyway, I thought I'd piece together some things that are needed for school-clothes wise. Yes, plenty of people have said to me "school is not a fashion show" but I have promptly ignored them each time. If you want to wear nice clothes to school do it! Here's a few of my must haves for braving school...
1. Jumper is from River Island, and is perfect for when the weather starts to get cooler. Also, is sometimes more flattering than a cardigan, if you get one that fits you well- get here
2. Bag is from H&M, I love this bag so so so much. I think it's so classic and plain, but also efortlessly chic at the same time. Must buy for school- get here
3. Pinafore is from Daisy Street, I think these pinafores are quite cute and add a girly touch on uniform, whilst this one is navy it does come in black as well, but due to such low numbers of it, I felt it was best to just include the navy one instead- get here
4. Shirt is from Topshop, you can't go wrong with a plain white shirt. Some schools-mine included-don't let you wear any other colour or pattern (by pattern I mean stripes, NOT Tommy Bahama print)- get here
5. Skirt is from New Look, I've ordered this skirt because I love the unusual shape of it and the zip detail. I am, however, slightly worried that it could be a little on the short side..I will report back later- get here
6. Trousers are from Forever 21, for me F21 is the home of preppy, so if you feel like channelling a bit of Blair Waldorf this year, I would definitely look there. These trousers have a timeless look about them and F21 are usually very good at their clothes maintaining colour and size- get here
7. Shoes are from New Look, again, these are my school shoes, I've just ordered them. Mainly I got them because New Look has an amazing selection of shoes which are sturdy. But also because they are plain enough to pair with anything and not look out of place- get here
8. Cardigan is from H&M, H&M is my trusted shop for school clothes, the stuff last. This may just seem like a very boring plain cardigan- which it sorta is- but it's a staple, you can pretty much throw this over anything and go. It is needed for school, I literally couldn't survive without mine-get here
Yes, I know they're all dark and dreary looking, but it's school clothes; you work with what you've got. So I guess all now you need to add now is a tie, tights and a blazer. I hope this is making you look forward to school a little bit more. Sadly, I love a good school clothes shop. Anyway, have fun getting school clothes and, also, a big good luck to my fellow Scottish pupils anxiously awaiting exam results tomorrow!
