You knew the time was coming. You’ve been dreading all year the day the invitation was going to be sent through your door. The reunion party for the 10th anniversary of the school is imminent and even worse, it’s going to be a costume party.

Most of the time, school reunion parties have a costume theme and school uniform costumes seem to be the most popular of all. It’s been ten years since you last saw many of your friends and you’re determined to outshine each and every one of them. You are determined that your school uniform costume will have everyone at the party talking.

So what should you do to make sure your school uniform costume looks better than the costumes all your old classmates are wearing and remind all the guys in attendance who was the hottest girl of the year? In a word, you need to customize. Below are my top 5 accessories to make sure your school uniform costume is rocking the party:

buy a sexy costume

If you’re lucky enough to still be wearing your original uniform ten years later, then great. For most of you, it means looking for suitable skirts and cardigans, or going the extra mile and spending on a sexy school uniform costume.

There are a wide variety of different outfits available online these days, covering all budgets and ranging from flirty to downright kinky. My advice would be to stick to the naughty but nice look. You want to look sexy, but remember that you are now ten years older and you have to think about your reputation.

It’s definitely worth spending some money on an outfit rather than putting together a costume yourself. After all, you want to play a fancy role at the party and, above all, look great.

Wear your old school tie

Try and buy a school uniform costume to go with your old school tie. Wearing your original tie is a great touch and if you haven’t kept any of your originals, you can of course buy one from dealers near your school.

Spend time on your hairstyle

Of course, your hairstyle is always important, but you really should put in the effort to play sexy schoolgirl and put your hair in sexy pigtails for the party. If your hair isn’t long enough for pigtails or you fancy a total color change for the night, you may want to consider purchasing a wig. You’re sure to surprise the guys if your favorite brunette shows up at the party dressed up as a blonde.

makeup is so important

You probably want to wear more makeup than you normally would. Remember when you were young and wanted to make yourself look older, keep that attitude when you apply your makeup, but don’t go overboard. A few freckles on the cheek or a Marilyn Monroe mole can also be a nice touch to match your sexy schoolgirl costume.

socks and shoes

Of course, the best accessories for the perfect sexy schoolgirl outfit are stockings and shoes. Occasionally these are paired with your schoolgirl costume, but if not, then you’ll want to wear white knee-high stockings and big black shoes with a chunky heel.
