In life, there are lots of easily preventable things. One of them being that ‘I woke up late, have nothing to wear, and literally look like I woke up on the wrong side of the bed’ situation. I’ve always been someone who picks out their outfit for school the night before or even a whole week in advance so I don’t have to worry about it as the week goes on. I have news for you; you can be like this too!
Today on the blog, I’m sharing fifteen outfit ideas with you! That’s three whole school weeks worth of outfit inspiration so you never have to wake up frantic.
Please keep in mind that my school does not follow a dress code so some of these outfits may not be right for you. Consider adding a cardigan, swapping a skirt out for pants, or changing things up a bit so you can still leave today with some awesome ideas!

I tried my best to really give you all an idea of what I personally wear to school. It’s rare that I ever dress down and if I am feeling casual I’m probably opting for a tank, jeans, and some flip flops.
I wear heels and dresses and makeup to school because that’s what I like to wear. In order to feel your best not only this school year but everyday, I encourage you to wear what makes you feel confident and comfortable in your own skin. Not what everyone else is wearing or what you feel like you ‘should’ be wearing because it’s the ‘normal’.

These are all SO cute!! Thanks for sharing these ideas–I’m going to need some good class outfits!
Ah thank you! So happy you enjoyed them. Have a fabulous day xoxox
So many lovely outfits. We weren’t allowed to wear skirts and dresses in school or Uni unfortunately. xx
aw that stinks! A lot of schools here in the US are pretty lenient as to what you can wear which is nice!
You FOR SURE must’ve won best dressed every single year!!! I LOVE THEM ALL. I’ve always wanted to rock a vest similar to the one you have in the last photo but I couldn’t ever really envision a whole look with one but I lovee how you paired it with the black romper so simple but super cute!
xo, JJ
