Having started the `What do you wear to work' thread, I thought an even more interesting one would be what you wear/wore to school!
In Australia there are very few schools that don't have a compulsory uniform, although the interpretation of that tends to be widespread and varied.
In high school, at my first school we wore canary yellow skirts, straight or pleated, with white button up shirts or t-shirts, and a bottle-green cardigan or jumper. It was bright but kinda cool.
At my second high school, the colours were blue - navy skirts (again straight or pleated) with lighter blue shirts or t-shirts, a blue and red tie if you wanted (but only if you were in year 11 or 12), navy blue jumpers, or rugby tops with your academic colours on them, and occasionally a navy blue blazer. The girls also wore navy blue tights because it got really cold in winter. Lots of us wore the tie, but never done up tight, and it really was more of a fashion statement!!
What did you wear??
