How to Accessorize School Uniforms

Few kids get excited about school uniforms. No one wants to look like everyone else, blending into a sea of khaki, navy, hunter green and white. But there is hope for the stylish child whose fashion sense is bound by a school uniform policy: Accessories.

Boys
The easiest way for boys to stand out in the crowd is with cool backpacks. We have a variety, ranging from this superhero-themed bag(1) to this rugged looking Jansport backpack(2) to and this rolling space shuttle backpack(3). If ties are allowed or required, he may opt for a trendy bow tie(4) in the appropriate color.

Stylish shoes are excellent for expressing individual style. Try these boat shoes from UGG Australia(5) or Sperry Top-Sider(6). Colorful Nike (7)or Polo Ralph Lauren(8) sneakers are sporty options.

Girls
Girls have an even wider range of accessories to choose from.

A Hello Kitty backpack(1) or handbag(2) can add a dash of whimsy and a splash of sparkle. The zebra print of this Jansport backpack(3) is a little edgy, while this Vera Bradley book bag(4) might appeal to the more fashion-forward young lady.

These dazzling Skechers(5) sneakers and shimmering Sperry boat shoes(6) are also great options for adding a little pizazz to a school uniform. A plain pair of shoes can be dressed up with these cute Copper Key socks(7) that have animal-print ruffle trim.

If standout shoes are not an option (or even if they are) add color to her hair with brightly colored bows from Copper Key(8). She can add a little bling to her khaki pants with one of these stylish rhinestone-embellished Miss Me Girls belts(9). Bracelets can also enliven a bland school uniform. From Copper Key, the animal-print bangles(10) are exotic and edgy.

The spring semester is here and it’s time to get your back-to-school wardrobe looking fresh and on-trend. Here are a few of our favorite spring styles:

Copper Key Graphic Hoodie  Lily White Printed Chiffon Top
  1. Sorbet Hues: A light, airy shade gives you a feminine feel without being too pastel. We love the lace-insets (double trend alert!) on this Catch My I top.
  2. Athletic Attitude: Go sporty with this graphic hoodie from Copper Key. Pair it with jeans for a comfortable day.
  3. Abstract Prints: Add a dose of Bohemian charm to your look with this Lily White chiffon top. Let this allover print take center stage with a solid bottom and neutral shoes.
