I’ve literally worn a uniform through my entire schooling and could not imagine picking my own clothes each day...

Me going to an ordinary British secondary school with my blazer, tie, and knee length pleated skirt: 👁👄👁

the thing i love about our school uniforms is that it can be fashionable just by adding a waist worn or just put on cardigan, jacket or hoodie. and the poor and unfashionable people wouldn't be bullied, because everyone wore the same thing. dress codes is just a headache for everyone. uniforms all the way!

Old uniforms were so cool. My uniform is just a navy blue or white collared shirt with khaki or navy blue skirt/pants

0:09 okay I can't be the only one that thought that the black underwear was the uniform

[fumi.s]

The one thing I miss about my uniform is not thinking about what to wear. Saves me so much time

[noxzienocturnal]

The one thing I really loved about wearing a uniform for all 12 years of my schooling life is that I never had to stress about choosing an outfit.

I like the idea of having a uniform that can be customized. Like there’s a standard uniform but you can accessorize it or wear different cardigans, socs etc to express yourself.

WHY DID WE GET RID OF THE SAILOR UNIFORMS THEY WERE SO CUTE

[ur_local_nintendo_ds]

I LOVE uniforms. My schools uniform is SUPER easy but really pretty. We also have this t shirt thing which we wear on the days we have games. My uniform has a white shirt, navy blue skirt/pant/shorts, white shoes and black socks, I'd cards, attendance cards for bus children, and a tie. Until 4th grade the tie is pre made and you have two diagonal white lines across. After that, the tie is a normal one without the white lines.

I go to a school with a uniform! our school colors are red, white, navy, and gray. what girls wear is:

no headwear/hoods allowed, but they are lenient with bandanas and other hair accessories.


in the high school, we have collared shirts, short and long sleeved, in our school colors with our logo. certain sports teams or other activities also give you other collared shirts with different logos. on fridays, we can wear spiritwear, which are essentially school-branded t-shirts.

for bottoms, we can wear khaki/navy skirts of a suitable length, jeans, and khaki/navy slacks/shorts. we have to wear a belt if there are belt loops, and no ripped/frayed jeans.

for outerwear, we can only wear school-branded outerwear. that's mainly hoodies and sweatshirts, but you can also buy sherpas. in addition, there are thin jackets and cardigans that occasionally come into production. i've seen knitted vests and knee-length coats that have not been made for many years. some sports teams give you windbreakers or warmer outerwear.

for shoes, socks, and accessories, there are no rules other than keeping it school appropriate. closed-toed shoes are required for fire safety. leggings and turtlenecks may be worn under uniforms for warmth or fashion.
