Still hemming and hawing over what to wear for day numero uno? Katelyn’s pretty polka dotted dress and coral cardi is the perf inspiration. It’s part retro, part girly and totally cool. We heart how she’s wearing it with sweet sandals now, but it would look just as rad with platforms once the weather gets a li’l chillier.

Mod Mod Mod,
i need help with a outfit for promotion, for middle school, but i dont know what to wear like shoes, jewerly or what dress i should wear cause the straps have to be two finger lenghts or else i have to wear a sweater over and it cant be to short has to be finger length. please tell me if you have any suggestions oh and by the way i am into a edgy look or a vintage look hope that helps thank you! ;)




Hey girlie,

You definitely want to dress a little conservative and professional for a graduation/promotion ceremony - but that doesn't mean you can't have any fun! Try looking for a white tee with a lace overlay, like this shirt from Forever 21. Paired with a tan tank top underneath and a knee-length pencil skirt like this one in a plain black, it's a totally vintage look and is super romantic! It's easier to do separates because it's easier to find a longer skirt than it is to find a dress that matches your school's rules. Smile Add some fun accessories and a pair of flats to express your personality! <3

Hey! Ok so my mom got me suspenders. I found some ways to make them look cute, but I am not sure if I should wear it or not. Will i look wierd? (not that suspenders are wierd) I just don't see anyone at school wearing them.




It's definitely fashion-forward and unique, but that's no reason to push them to the back of your closet!! Take a look at some fashionable ways to wear suspenders (with sheer shirts with neck ties, fitted tees, button downs, etc.) which it sounds like you've already started to do, then go for it! Make sure you walk with your head up and shoulders back - the best way to pull off a fashion risk is confidently!
