This polo-and-jean-skirt combo made me feel a little bit like I was wearing a school uniform. But since I wore it to school…it’s OK, right? As uniforms go, this wouldn’t be so bad. The shirt is super comfortable, and the skirt has a cute shape. Plus, who doesn’t love a little bow accent? But if I had to wear the same thing everyday – and not to be dramatic or anything – I would probably jump off a cliff. No uniforms was one of many good things about going to public school. And by “many” I mean probably like 3. Ideally, I would have gone to that high school that they went to in Gossip Girl, where they had a uniform, but, from what I gathered, you were A-OK as long as you were wearing at least one square foot of plaid.

LOVE your bow belt darling! It looks perfect with the striped tee!

I have had the same exact thought about Gossip Girl SO many times! It’s very cute, but with the blue stripes and blue skirt I feel like you need a pop of color somewhere.
You’re right, I thought that too. I wanted a bright shoe but most of my bright shoes wouldn’t stand up well to water, and there was a chance of rain…couldn’t risk it!! So I went for little pops with the belt and bracelets 🙂
Love that bow belt! I went to a public middle school but still managed to have a dress code. Khaki pants and a navy or white shirt. I still can’t wear khakis to this day.

This outfit is so cute on you! When I went to high school, I had to wear the same uniform every single day (bleeeh). AND you couldn’t wear colorful accessories or makeup whatsoever (double bleh). Anyway, back to the outfit. I really like how you mix prints with the top and flats!
