She's old enough to dress herself within reason

Misogynist. Always attacking women for their looks, not men.

My teen (been back since late October) has been wearing sweat pant shorts:lounge or bike shorts, loose or crop tops, a sweat jacket or hoodie, sweatpants or leggings and white sneakers or army boots. That is pretty much what all of her friends are wearing as well (plus flip flops which my DD does not wear).

High school teacher with teens of my own who recently went back.

These are good ideas. The kids seem to be dressing in all sorts of things. Definitely comfortable clothes since they are still adjusting to being back after being at home in pjs for so long. My own DD just asked for more pastel colored thin shirts. She also likes tie dye.

I wouldn’t advise short shorts if fitting in is her goal.

Here are a few ideas - Cute boyfriend jeans, flow tops, slightly cropped t shirts and long sleeve Ts, soft colors. Try American Eagle, Madewell, H&M, Pac Sun, Urban Outfitters, Free People, Brandy Melville - just a few ideas, but honestly, just keep it simple the first few days and she'll figure it out. Def. the white tennis shoes - she will fit right in. Good luck with her new school

Same feedback here.. “softie clothes,” she says. Soft pants, flowy tops, white sneakers

ignore the snarky comment from previous poster. being new in school is hard.


Thank you so much for understanding. And to the other poster who made recommendations. Yes being new and having been isolated for so long can make a kid feel especially self conscious- you are so kind to help.

My teen girl said that no one is dressing nice now. Said the look is cute lounge wear. Soft tie dye patterns, matching sweat shirt/pants. Definitely white tennis shoes. Said the overall look is much more casual and relaxed.
