[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here: W feeder middle school. The "basic" look. Google it. Sweatshirts, leggings, Uggs or Hunters. In hot weather, [b]tanks and shorts with flip flops.[/b] But insist she wear layers because I keep my classroom freezing year round. Cuts down on dress code violations.[/quote]

Just FYI for the OP, tank tops were a dress code violation at our public middle school. No tanks (for either boys or girls, by the way) or camisole thin-strap tops on their own. Under something else, OK, but not on their own. OP should check her DD's school's code first.

My DD made it through MS with zero leggings, Uggs, or sweatshirts. In her MS, among her friends, it was jeans (never skinny jeans, only what was comfortable but not skin-tight) and t-shirts but not the shirts that advertise specific stores. There were plenty of leggings and jeans and Hollister-name-on-everything shirts etc. on some girls but this just isn't universal at every school among every group of kids.

OP, I would wait and see what kids are wearing at your DD's school before putting a lot of cash into anything. Get her some basic items to start with but don't get a whole trendy wardrobe until she's had time to scope things out. Get her to find some clubs and activities at school that interest her and where she'll meet kids who share her interests. That'll help her find friends and then she can dress however she feels most like herself around them.[/quote]
