DALLAS -
Lucky for you, the school girl uniform look is in, thanks to a few famous "Gossip" friends!
Alana Unterberg, Owner of Merge Dallas says, "I think they're taking their cues from shows like Gossip Girl."
But let's face it, the standard uniform lacks a little originality. Ashley Anderson, a high school senior who goes to private school says, "Everyone looks the same, it's not fun, sort of boring."
So Alana is showing her and her friend Sarah Cassidy how to take their uniform and make it rocker chic, or collegiate cool, with a few simple additions.
Alana says, "Lots of layers of chunky bracelets, chunky thin, color leather gold, just a whole concoction. We have some rock star jewelry in black leather, and then a high boot and what else do you need to be a rocker?"
Belts are huge this season, you can wear them high waisted for a tailored look, or slung low on the hips to make it edgier.
And funky necklaces and bracelets are a dress code friendly way of showing off your personal style.
And while accessories are in, too much of a good thing is just overkill! So when you're shopping, go with one big statement piece, and that's what's going to help you stand out.
And who says you have to wear a back pack to lug your books in? Bright bags in bold colors are fun and young.
Change out your shoes once school is out, and no one will ever know you had to wear this to school.
Sarah Cassicy says of her new look, "It's more rocker, edgy trendy, just updated." and Ashley Anderson says, "The bracelets are really cute, makes it more edgy."
