It is necessary to instill good taste in children from an early age. It is very important that the child feels confident and comfortable in any outfit, be it school uniforms or everyday basic things. They are greeted by their clothes, so the ability to dress according to the circumstances and the desire to look neat and stylish is the key to a successful first impression.
I am sure that most mothers have already prepared their students for the festive September 1st rulers and the upcoming school days. So, we consolidate the material: once again, let's talk about the universal options for school uniforms and basic things for everyday life.
Uniform wardrobe
Dress or sundress, skirt, blouse, jacket, trousers - for girls. Trousers, jacket, shirt - for boys. (And also a pullover or a vest - as interchangeable wardrobe items). Shoes in both cases must be of high quality so that it is easy and comfortable to spend the whole day in it. If the requirements for school uniforms are strict, like "white top - black bottom", then accessories will help to create an image different from others. In this case, girls are a little easier, they can wear brooches with frills, beautiful hairpins and headbands, shoes with buckles or bows, and boys can experiment with ties and bow ties.
Backpacks and bags are not covered by the school dress code (hurray!), So they may well be cool: with bright prints, stylish keychains or images of your favorite characters.
Do not think, I am not at all against a single school style, I am for spectacular details in the image, which each student can have their own. It is with them that individuality begins!
Combination of colors and prints
A strict combination of black and white can quickly get boring, so if school rules allow, dilute with monochrome. Choose deep, dark shades like blue, burgundy, purple, asphalt. The rule of one saturation will work, and the combinations will turn out to be interesting and harmonious. Also, do not forget about your favorite "school" prints - a cage and a goose foot. Made in discreet colors, they will look businesslike and stylish at the same time.
I created a rough set where all the clothes are in the same color saturation. In this case, in the dark. Since all things have one common denominator, they go well with each other:
The right base
If your school has passed the fate of the obligatory formal wardrobe, it is important to think about capsules of everyday looks. A girl can have two basic sets, for example, a sundress with a shirt and trousers with a turtleneck / sweater (skirts, dresses, jackets - as additions), and for boys - pants / dark jeans and a shirt / polo with long sleeves / jumper.
If the wardrobe is thought out in advance and all things are combined with each other in colors and styles, then daily morning gatherings from September to May will not seem to your children as a routine and obligation at all.
Grafting good taste
I mentioned above that in our time, the relevance of things is very important. Two simple examples: if a girl's wardrobe consists entirely of elegant dresses like Disney princesses (this happens), then in her lush ruffles on a walk with friends dressed in jeans, she will look slightly ridiculous. And if a football boy, accustomed to race around the field in sneakers and sports shoes, came to the theater in this form, he will definitely stand out against the background of his peers in trousers and jeans. It is important to teach children to understand that smart clothes require a special occasion or festive event, while everyday clothes should be comfortable and stylish, emphasizing individuality.
Before going to the store, I advise you to make a shopping list of necessary things. It will help keep you from unnecessary purchases. It is also very important to choose clothes by size (not for growth!) And take into account the opinion of the child.
From time to time, we all need a "syringe" of fashionable knowledge. It is important to train your eye, follow trends and choose stylish and worthwhile things among them, easily assembling a basic "constructor" and enthusiastically experimenting with fashionable novelties. And children will, one way or another, take an example from stylish parents!
