I just bought this really cute tan leather jacket but idk how to wear it to school. Im ot a fan of dresses but anything else i can wear to school. Any ideas???

 

hey! that sounds cute! i think it would look good with a T and some skinny jeans. if the jeans are a bright color that's even better with the tan Smile

i just turned sixteen last week and people always think im in middle school which stinks im not really new to this ppl have been telling me that i look younger than i am since i was ten. I learned to dress like my age im bout 5'3ish and am at a healthy weight. I love to wear makeup but dont usually go with a full face. anyway my question is how do i get the appearance of looking older b/c im sick of it?
Also i was wondering maybe its my hair it wavy/curly dark goldy/blonde and three inch's below my shoulders with layers.
Or maybe a different makeup look?
thank you a tons this site has helped me for so long!

 

hey! I have had the same problem since forever too! Seriously people can be so rude about it but they act like it's a complement. anyway one good way to dress older is to check out what stars who are older than you are wearing. You don't have to pay fancy designer prices to spot a trend the older girls are wearing and find an affordable equivalent. Also a big no no is piling on the makeup to look older, you might think that would help but it's rarely as flattering as a fresh face. maybe test out a makeup trick you haven't yet like a smokey blend of eyeshadow or a cat eye. one makeup trick I live by is this: emphasize your lips or eyes, both at the same time is too much. But the best tip I can give you is to have a mature attitude. If you act your age or older it comes across in the way you carry yourself, trust me Smile

I have bright red skinny jeans but idk what to wear ontop. I don't really have anything that matches for colder seasons. what are a good buy? btw im 15 and my family is fairly strict, so it can't show too much skin. thanks!

 

hey! when you have bright pants I think it's best to wear a neutral color like white, grey, or black on top. I think a simple tshirt with some interesting jewelry would look cute but modest Smile

ok so at camp and during vacay im like super confident and the most popular and then when school starts i start to get insecure and no one but my 5th grade friends like me. today was my first day and when i would talk to someone they kinda just rolled their eyes at me and ignored me how do I get that camp girl back!

 

Hey! I know exactly what you mean, I was the same way at my camp vs. school. Just try to pinpoint what it is about camp that makes you so confident. was it that you know you're there to have fun as opposed to school which can be hard work and stessful? whatever it is, think about it and try to channel that feeling when you're at school. good luck!
