I was in high school during the late 60’s when the girls wore dresses. My final year – 69/70 – my school adopted a new dress code to allow the wearing of PANTSUITS. My mother bought me this beautiful lime green pantsuit, and, looking back, today I wouldn’t be caught dead in it. Imagine, long red hair with a lime green pantsuit…you must have been able to see me coming a mile away!
6-12, no choice: blue blazer, gray wool worsted pants. Since we could choose shirts and ties, I sometimes sported a yellow tape stripe on white Oxford button down shirt with any tie I could find. . .
Okay, are you ready for this? Poodle shirt and white sweater. This was in the late 1950s, at our school girls were not allowed to wear slacks/jeans.
Jeans and a T-shirt. Not just any t-shirt though. This t-shirt: http://t-shirts.cafepress.com/item/voices-talk-to-me-tshirt/5720039
If you don’t want to follow the link, it says “You’re just jealous because the voices only talk to me.” I wore the shirt so much (and washed it often) that I wore it completely out. It’s taken me years to find it again. I’m well on my way to wearing this new one out, but now I can order more. 😀
T-shirt and jeans!
Hi taxgirl!
My favorite outfit for school right now is comfortable jeans, and layer dressing. A tank underneath a cool jean shirt with a cute little leather jacket to top it off. I still am wearing sandals to show off the toe jewelry! When we cut-out in the p.m. I can layer-off to the tank and catch some rays!!
The joys of uniforms K-12. Plaid kilt, shirt (with collar) and — oh, how cool were we?!? — sweatpants under the kilt.
What a fashionista I… wasn’t…
I went to school in the mini-skirt days. You could get sent home if your skirt was too short. I rode the school bus so they couldn’t send me home so I was the example of the shortest skirts to appear all day.
Of course, you’d wear colored stockings with the mini-skirts. My favorite was red sheer stockings with a scotch plaid skirt (with a big gold safety pin) and a plain white blouse.
I was a Garanimals kid in elementary in the 70s, like this dude only blonde. I was never very clothes conscious, but did have a bunch of Op cords shorts that I wore a lot in middle school.
Tapered jeans with big plaid shirts!
I had no choice in what I wore the school, we had a very strict uniform code.
We had a dress code, and could wear jeans only on the last Friday of every month. So jeans and a sweater were exciting and the best thing to be able to wear to school, though only because it was prohibited most of the time.
Shorts and T-shirt everyday.

Khakis! I didn’t wear jeans until Law School EVERYONE ripped on me
