Make my khakis look cute!

Check these out, too...

  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
Having to wear a uniform can seem like damper on your fashion freedom, but you can easily modify those boring khakis by adding some fun accessories to change things up. 


Belt it
An easy addition is a bold belt in a color that will pop and add some excitement to your same ol' uniform.
 

Streamline Woven Leather Blue Belt, $25, lulus.com

 
Cuff Away
To change up your standard-issue khakis, go for a skinny fit and roll up the cuffs to give your pair a fresh new look.

 

Cotton Twill Modern Cargo Pants, $54, loft.com
 
Go Bold
Pair cuffed pants with a brightly colored flat. Patent leather gives these a hint of extra notice-me shine!
 

Patent Ballet Flat, $30, delias.com
 
Tuck ‘em in
Try tucking your khakis into moccasins or a cozy pair of booties when it starts to get chilly out there. They’ll keep your feet toasty and make your uni look just a bit more hip. Love it!
 

Steve Madden 'Tblanket' Moc Boot, $80, nordstrom.com

These are all really cute but I can't do any I'd these things to my uniform! Firstly, our shorts cant be as short as the first picture, we aren't allowed to have skinny pants (they have to be either straight leg or flare) so we can't cuff them up, and we aren't allowed to wear boots or moccasins so we can't tuck our pants in!!! D:

At my school, we can wear khakis, a blue or white polo, a navy or khaki pleated skirt at knee length. On fridays we have to wear the skirts with an oxford shirt, pullover, vest or cardigan...so they're not that bad.

BUT, we have to wear a belt, and it has to be black or brown only. We can't cuff our khakis. And we can only wear black or brown dress shoes. So none of this would work for me.

MOD MOD MOD! I have this kahki skirtb and i hate it! its not flattering and i cant add a belt becuase it has no loops for a belt. We are allowed to add accesories but i dont have anythat goes with a baby blue shirt and my kahki skirt! UGLY!!! HELP

 

Hey girlfriend, mhmm I hate unflattering clothes lol! You could try tucking the shirt into your skirt and adding different accessories. Try necklaces, bracelets and rings. A headband and a cute purse would look cute too! Smile Smile Smile Smile Smile
