[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on your middle school demographic. White UMC, lots of lululemon. Diverse in both color and socioeconomics, anything goes, quite literally. At my DD’s diverse public middle school I see everything from jeans, pajamas, leggings, sweats, athletic wear, cosplay bizarre stuff, all black, fuzzy slippers, Nike shoes, tall combat boots..really I don’t think you could stand out if you tried. Everyone wears whatever and anything. [/quote] I agree with this. If girls stay away from the mean cliques (most of whom dress exactly alike, lots of lululemon yes), they should be fine wearing whatever they like. [/quote] This is what we've seen. When someone makes fun of my dd's outfit she gets a pretty clear signal that it's not someone she'll want to be close to, at least not right now. There was a pretty clear dividing line among the friends from elementary school, those who cared a ton what was cool and those who couldn't care less. It made for a tough sixth and half of seventh grade until the more accepting kids kind of found each other. They wear whatever.[/quote] PS if your DD is asking for expensive name brands, you might want to ask her how her clique treats people who aren't wearing the "right" labels and styles. She might not listen right away but keep messaging that kind people don't exclude or put down others based on their outfits.[/quote] Good advice, thanks.[/quote]
