Daphne's dilemma

youdontknowme

Angelina there are people who find it sexy to lick mayonnaise off other people's bodies, so.... yes there is no right or wrong

And then there is always this guy:

the really interesting thing is that he told his parents that. i would die a thousand deaths. 🤣

Avery

Angelina you would probably look very sexy in it

So would you. There are a number of similar uniforms on the US Amazon site with bare midriff tops. Very nice. Probably also on the German site.

Sounds good, I think I will at least continue to deal with the topic. 😃

Daphne I do want to know what you all think

but that's hard, i'd actually have to see a photo of you in a school uniform (and there are good reasons why you shouldn't show that)

Lea

that just reminds me. do you still have your parents' strict dress code?

Daphne

Angelina i think you should just try a few things. wear different variations for a day and then decide what you like best. 😉

I do want to know what you all think

carg

Lea You mean uniforms in general have advantages, or you mean the full slip and blazer have advantages over skirt+blouse+tie? And in either case, which? (Apart from turning on some of the members here 😉 )

Daphne I do want to know what you all think

I think you really want to go for the strictest option, and are just looking for confirmation. But knowing nothing about how you look like, what your social environment is, what kind of work you are thinking of, we don't have anything to base serious advice on. (And like Angelina said, you shouldn't divulge enough information so that we could.)

Lea

Daphne Definitely complete school uniform including blazer and underwear otherwise it is not real experience.

Daphne

Lea

And should i do that every day or?

carg

Lea Interesting to see that someone with a forced dress code, and IIRC one she doesn't care for, would choose the most severe uniform option for Daphne.

Lea

Daphne Yeah but it depends on you.

Lea

Angelina Yes I do.

Lea

carg Well it is something she would like to try. On the other hand it also has some advantages.

Angelina

Lea Yes I do.

it's a pity that your parents still insist on it, despite the chastity bra 🙁

Daphne

still it's difficult, a school uniform that looks sexy on one person can look ugly on another person. what suits you always depends on how well it suits your type otherwise, that makes general suggestions difficult

carg and apart from that more equality between rich and poor kids (visually).

But the diamond necklace can speak a different language 😂

Daphne

Lea

What advantages are there?

Lea

Daphne Well you dont have to think what to wear. You are sure that you always wear appropriate clothes. You can try both and compare which one do you prefer.

carg In general. But even strict uniform has advantages for example during cold weather you exactly know what to wear and you don t have to think if it match uniform.

Daphne

That's a pretty big assumption yes, one that's wrong. I'm not here for confirmation or anything. That being said, i don't mind giving some of that info if it helps.

Daphne That's a pretty big assumption yes, one that's wrong. I'm not here for confirmation or anything. That being said, i don't mind giving some of that info if it helps.

OK, since you asked what we think, I decided to take you up on it. My idea was based on that you selected thighbands, and the shortest possible chain too, after asking about it here. But since my assumption is wrong, I was thinking that we might be able to help you if you give us a list of pro's and con's for you for both options: that would give us an idea what is important to you in the choice, and we can perhaps tell you what we think of them, and come up with more.

Lea you exactly know what to wear

Yes, that is of course the standard advantage of uniforms: no need to choose, and apart from that more equality between rich and poor kids (visually).
In what way is the cold weather relevant? Do you find it harder to pick, and match, a winter outfit than a summer outfit (if not in uniform)?

Daphne

Lea Well you dont have to think what to wear. You are sure that you always wear appropriate clothes. You can try both and compare which one do you prefer.

True that, I'd almost try your dress code if it featured a skirt if I'm honest

Daphne

I've recently gotten a longer chain actually, to 6cm now as for the options

Blouse + gymslip + tie + knee socks

+can choose what i want to wear over the gymslip
+not as expensive as the other option
-not as many layers
-not as formal as i desire

Uniform with blazer and underwear

+full uniform that i cannot escape from
+proper formal wear
+will be warm enough for all seasons so i don't have to change much at all
-Expensive
-might be a bit dull

Lea

carg It always depends what she wants. Not harder but not unified.

carg

Daphne

Thanks. Yes, I guess both options are not that cheap (looking at the prices from albertprendergast), but of course blazers are a lot extra. Now, I'm quite unfamiliar with school uniforms (I've never seen them in the Netherlands, except for at a British School), so this might be something that is obvious to others, but what is the difference between the full uniform and the first option with an added blazer? If there is not that much difference, can't you just get one or two sets with blazer, and the rest without, so that you can only use the blazer for colder / more formal occasions?
I'm not sure why you'd say the full uniform is dull - I think it will draw plenty of attention. It looks even more modest though.
So you have decided it will be a gymslip, and not a skirt then with the first option? Because it is less sexy?
Personally I liked the pinafore the girl wore in the first few episodes of 'His Dark Materials'; with the split skirt she can run/climb/.. without the risk of exposing herself. Of course, esp. with a blazer on top, it will take more effort in the bathroom. But I don't know if there are gymslips available with a split skirt. Don't see them at albertprendergast at least.)

Daphne full uniform that i cannot escape from

Do you mean that you can't escape from it mentally, since it is so formal and constantly present? Or are you actually considering adapting it so that you need help in taking it off? (In that case I would advise against a split skirt 😮)

Vanessa

Daphne I've recently gotten a longer chain actually

Wise decision.

Lea jewellery are ban.

You're not allowed to wear jewellery?

Not at all?

Lea

Daphne It will be good expereince. What clothes/colours did you choose?

Daphne

carg Do you mean that you can't escape from it mentally, since it is so formal and constantly present? Or are you actually considering adapting

I mean that would desirable as well or just depends on how that would be done

Daphne

carg So you have decided it will be a gymslip, and not a skirt then with the first option? Because it is less sexy?

Basically yeah

carg

carg gymslips available with a split skirt

I was focusing on school uniforms, and then completely forgot that it has to work with thighbands, so a split skirt is probably not a valuable suggestion (unless it has a very low crotch). 😅

Angelina carg and apart from that more equality between rich and poor kids (visually).
But the diamond necklace can speak a different language

Yes, that was why I wrote more equality - it will never be total; even if jewelry is banned, it might be make-up, or hairdo - I'm sure there are people who will always look for some way to distinguish themselves, and show off their riches.
