Dress-Up Disaster

Last year we had a “Crazy Dress Day,” and I was new to the school. So little did I know that for everyone in my class, “Crazy Dress Day” was really just a day where we didn’t have to wear our uniforms. So, I showed up in big, ugly sunglasses, a feather mask from Mardi Gras, a weird shirt, ugly jeans, and cowboy boots. When I walked in, everyone laughed and then I noticed that everyone else was wearing normal, in-style clothes. It was so embarrassing!

dress up disaster

o my word!!! i did something like that once except it was crazy hat day and i thought it was crazy hair day so i walked in w/ my hair dyed in like 4 different colors and braids with wire in them and everyone started laughing

Luckily

Nothing like that’s happened to me. But that’s just because I’m cautious. Like when there’s a casual day at my school, I ask like 10 different people over and over and I’m usually still not satisfied until I get to school and see other kids wearing casual clothes. Don’t know if that sounds weirdd or not, but I’d just really like to avoid embarrassment!

it happens

it has happened to me but when moments like that happen you need to be there for your friends.then you can be reliefed when there for you it may be hard but it will pay off trust me! kelley

Lukily

Thats never happened to me before either because at my school we don’t have to were uniforms!(I hope that never changes)If a were you ind ask a friend or sense you were knew to the school ask someone in your class or a teacher.I hate embarrassment!!

LOL I do the same thing one

LOL I do the same thing one of the people in the comments said. I ask like a lot of my friends what are they going to wear too.

Wacky Cheer Day

At my cheer camp we had wacky tacky day, and this one girl wore a bathing suit top, to different sneakers,and cuffed one side of her jeans but not the other! It wasn’t embarrassing but was very funny!

LOL

That sound funny!

OMG

One day the school had a pool party and I forgot to put on my bathing suit bottom so when I took my shorts off to go into the pool I was wearing my UNDREWEAR! It was so embarrassing and my crush was their. Everyone was laughing at me for days!!!!!

Not too bad

Thats not too bad, you where new, right? Stuff like that happens to you! Thats how you deal with things in life!

like treos

me too!! it was really party day where everyone would wear party clothes but i took it as pajama day so i came in with my monkey pj’s on and the whole room was silent then they broke out laughing THE WHOLE DAY!!!!

WOW

WELL,I HAD SOMTHING LIKE THAT HAPPEN TO ME! I WAS IN GYM GLASS AND WE WERE LISTENING TO MY GYM TEACHER TALK ABOUT BASKETBALL(BORING!) WELL MY BFF WAS MASSAGING MY BACK! THEN! THEN WE HAD TO RUN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY BRA FELL OFF AND LANDED ON MY CRUSHES FOOT ! HE SMILED AND SAID THANKS FOR THE PRESENT!I TOLD MY MOM I WAS SICK THE NEXT DAY!

oh well i would....

that actually sounds good. if i were doing that i would dye my hair: pink,blue,purple, and then the hair that i keep natural i would add sparkles too. and i would braid the bottom parts and put the top parts in buns. i saw it on a dozen Japanese cartoons.

HAT DAY!!!

boy,you probaly needed a hat after that…..(no offensive)I would have asked my friend for her hat to make it less noticable.

If there WAS Crazy hair day

if there is a crazy hair day at your school you could braid you hair into wires. Then you can bend them into what ever shape/form you want!! It’s really cool!!

Angie!!

Solution

You should’ve just told them that you are celebrating no uniforms. Then people would just think that you have a lot of school spirit.

add a sense of humour in it

when u did that u should hav told every1 that u wr wearing the latest “hat” in Hollywood and laugh along with them…thats wat i did when i wuz wearing a wet skirt(i spilled stuff on it and i washed in the bathroom, in case u wr wondering)

Wow

That is sooooooo embarasing! I would have taken a spare change of clothes or something!

OMG!

It is hard being new! That must of been soooooooooooooo embarrassing! It would be like being a fugitive standing on a stage on American Idol! I mean it would be a LOOK AT ME! costume!

REply

Yea…but you would not think of that cause you would think you like were going to look great!!! LOL

real harsh

ooooooooh REALY HARSH

Thats okay

I had a similar story! Once I thought it was wacky tacky day at my school so I dressed up in all these clothes that did not match and I also wore a feathered boa and sunglasses. When I got to school everyone laughed and said it was tomorrow! I was so humiliated

PICTURE DAY

THERE WAS THIS NEW GIRL IN MY CLASS AND IT WAS ABOUT TO BE PICTURE DAY SO SHE GOT DRESSED UP AND WORE A DRESS THEN WHEN SHE CAME TO SCHOOL EVERYONE WAS IN UNIFORMS. WE TOLD HER PICTURE DAY WAS TOMMORROW ,SHE HAD TO GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO HER HOUSE AND CHANGE.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh!

Who could of seen that coming? Well, I still feel awful about it! You Are A Brave Girl! You know that? Maybe if there ever is a new person you could tell them what not to wear! - Gypsy Girl

OMG!

Sry about that. I can’t beleive you survived that day. I would pretend i was sick and make the nurse beleive that so i could go home. Sry!

Dress up disaster

Crazy Dress Day

I feel soo sorry for you.But,the cowboy boots,good touch.Since you were new to the school you should have asked your friend what they were going to wear.If she said that she was going to wear something “in-style”then you should have worn something “in-style”.

"friend"

she might not have friends yet because she is new!

That's sad!!!

It’s okay. First of all, your school shouldn’t have said it was “Crazy Dress Day”. I hope that your okay and no one makes fun of you.

OMG

Wow that must have been HUMILIATING!! I feel so bad for you!! I’m glad I go to a school where we don’t have to wear uniforms!

M.L.A. <3

WOW!

i feel really bad! that would be super embarrassing! that kinda happened to me. i knew that on friday it was crazy hair day, and i got sick tuesday. i guess that was the day everyone decided to do their hair in high pig tails, or if you were a boy do a mowhawk. on friday, i walked into school with my hair dyed pink and purple, and sticking out in a million ponytails all over my head! everyone in class laughed at me. so i know how you feel. i luv u girl! -Rhianna

That's strange...

Usually my school calls it “Free dress days”, instead of “Crazy Dress Day”…

Oh no

crazy dress

My school calls it choice dress day or casual day.

Same thing happened to me

One day my school had a pajama day and I wore the really cute pajamas, hoping to impress. When I walked in everyone laughed and said,” Are you going to where normal clothes tomorrow?” I didn’t know it was the next day! + your school should have said No uniform day or something. - Jennalee

don't worry

don’t worry about it it was a mistake and will hopefuly never happen again

OMG!

seriously? in my last school, i was aware that it was pajama day, but i thought nobody would wear Pajamas, so i didnt. so i guess it was uncool to wear normal clothes coz everyone was wearing soft PJs When i got there i was like the only one in there wearing capris and a pink t-shirt. ppl said, ” u dont slp in those do u?” that was HORRIBLE. im proud that u didnt fake sick. I almost did. lol i know how ya feel

 -Lauraniya

I would have...

I have just have taken off the glasses and the mask and told my friends that I was just “celebreating” Crazy Dress Day. YOur school should call it something else though.

boy pants

One time, at school I spilled milk over my pants, so I went to the nurse and she gave me these really heavy boy pants, and everyone wouldn’t stop asking me why I was wearing boys pants! And then later I felt like I was sick so I went to the nurse and she though I felt bad because I didn’t like the pants, so she called my mom and told her to bring another pair,{Thank goodness} But then everyone started thinking I was a spoiled brat!

THATS BAD!

i know what thats like i did that once..but it got all over the school…cuase my friend yelled out “angie loves ‘P’” so loud and then i was bright red and then his friend brought him 2 say hi to me and he was like hi and then i was so embarrased it was the thing that EVRYONE knew! so i can imagine it being pretty bad for you.. PEACE angie <3
