To ask what you’d wear on express yourself day

[FurForksSake]

My children’s’ school is having an express yourself day where they can wear their own clothes.

if you had to do this (mandatory, no option for getting out of it), what would you wear to express yourself for the day?

My replica Aston Villa shirt from winning the European Cup, jeans, converse, my godmothers gifted dangly emerald earrings, and a set of worry beads on my wrist. And sparkly eyeshadow.

Probably my beloved harem nappy trousers and a Tim Minchin T shirt. Or Sunnydale Highschool T shirt. I love my harems for at my happy place (allotment) and Tim's my favourite musician, and Buffy is still my go to show!

Literally whatever they want. I’d do jeans and t.shirt (kids would probably say joggers and t.shirt). Or shorts if warm.

This. I hate fun

I would dress like Wednesday Adams

A crown.

If I was really being true to myself, and didn’t care about dignity and decorum, then a grotty towelling bathrobe and nothing else

Express yourself? Madonna or NWA?

My suffragette scarf or an Adult Human Female t-shirt (if I had one)

I've noticed that when I'm stressed or overloaded, I live in plain black trousers and plain black tops. Then when I'm feeling more relaxed and unstressed, I wear loads of colour, especially rainbows, colourful Dr Martens, swirly skirts, bright stripes, that sort of thing.

Get a plain white t shirt and some fabric paints and let her do what she wants.

(I would wear a Pulp t shirt)

A Vivienne Westwood dress. My life doesn’t have times where this is doable.

When I was at school- Probably jeans, t-shirt and trainers or something that wouldn’t make me stand out.

now- something comfortable like leggings and a tunic if going out, PJs if staying at home.

@TheWisePlumDuck has nailed it.

Also, whatever I wore there would be big pockets and I would have very comfy shoes.

Also something homemade - I like knitting and making jewellery...

I'd go full-on hippy, and definitely barefoot.

My kids have worn Rainbow/Brownies/Beavers uniforms, sports kits, dance kit, Bluey PJ'S, Christmas clothes, Frozen princess.
Their school went one step further, they had to produce a poster/craft or similar explaining why they chose that to wear. I don't mind the dressing up bit, but the associated craft activity is a bit annoying

I would wear PJ'S to signify that I love my sleep.

Exactly this, and I think half my team would wear the same!

I absolutely hate fun of any kind, I'd wear a shroud and my best mardy arse face.

This has so much potential to go wrong.

I'm imagining political statements, offensive language....

The idea of a music themed t-shirt was good. My DC would be in peppa pig or paw patrol stuff but they are small.

I have a t-shirt that says ‘Shut up. No-one cares.’ Wore it on non-uniform day at school.

Tailored navy dress, Chie Mihara shoes.

Today me - Jeans and a bright coloured tshirt (no slogans), trainers
Older teen me - mini skirt, a men style shirt, black high heeled boots, black tights.

Older teen DD - black leggings and a tshirt with healthy/ optimistic style slogan, trainers.
DH : jeans and a tshirt (plain coloured, the one which was the closest when he opened wardrobe)

Starfleet uniform… if I was to be really true to myself.

but I’m not that brave so a Star Trek T shirt is about as far as I will go.

Sorted

Bright yellow (my favourite colour) and some fabulous shoes
