How to Make a Boring Uniform More Interesting

Something that a bunch of us have to deal with 5 days a week for a bunch of months in a year is a boring uniform or intense dress code(I've had to deal with this one). So here are a couple of ways to fix up your school uniforms or dress code outfits!!
1. Accessorize
Add cool accessories like long or layered necklaces, a bunch of bracelets would be cool too. Also, scarves would be good. For example, something that looks like the McQ scarves(not necessarily McQ themselvesbut, something like that). AND you can add other little things like pins and rings. Try looking through your mom's old jewelry, you'll never know what you'll find!!
Here are some accessories that I would choose:

Marc by Marc Jacobs Cherry Charm Watch Necklace
Convenient in to very important ways; 1. gives you the time, so you'll never be late to class! 2. Adorable and fun for any outfit.

Urban Outfitters Travel Charm Necklace
Perfect for layering and super cute!

Fred Flare Pirate Octupus Brooch
It's really silly looking but, it may be perfect for that boring uniform and your friends will probably love it!!
get it here!

Fred Flare Heart Button Ring
get it here!

Rachel Leigh Ribbon Charm Bracelet
I love these bracelets thy are adorable additions and they come in a bunch of different colors and charms!!
get it here!


Okay, moving on before I get crazy with accessories!!!
2. Shoes!!!
My pick would be an adorable pair of flats that would be a print, metallic or bright color. But, depending on your school's rules, some of those may not work. Just remember your shoes are probably the best way to make your uniform more interesting.
My shoe picks!

London Sole Low Cut Ballerinas, in Red Spot
I love these and London Soles are perfect for a day of walking from class to class. I would pick any pair of London Soles to pair with my uniform or dress code appropriate outfit!!

Marc by Marc Jacobs Leather Round Toe Slipper

3. Legwear
Tights and leggings that are patterned or colored are perfect for keeping you warm and making your outfit more interesting!!!

American Apparel Opaque Tights, available in more colors!
They also have stirrup tights, I'm currently wanting a black pair, that would be cute too!!!

And of course the classic American Apparel Leggings, I love these in black, grey, and navy but, if you can pull it off try a color or a print!!

Lesportsac + The OC = Disaster

So I randomley decided to check out lesportsac's website and on the front page was a link for Lesportsac for the OC and being a major OC fan I took a look. After clicking on it I soon discovered that Lesportsac is doing OC inspired bags. From the TJ weekender to the Coop clutch you just won't know what to do with yourself. I have to say I find the line absolutely hideous but, the names are very funny.
Take a look:

Coop Clutch in Tiajuana Rose, horrendous...right??



Harbor High Tote in Sparkler, this makes me cringe



The Outsider in Kid Chino, if you carry this you'll definitly be an outsider.
