YOU
- Diary of a Skool Girl – For this feature you can submit a diary entry in which you tell your version of a story, event or life experience (Here are some examples.) We’d like to know about a moment in time when you felt pressured to down play who you are to make someone else feel more comfortable. Do you regret not standing out for the right reasons? How easy is it to talk about your successes and accomplishments when people around you may not be in the same position? Is it okay to shine without fear or being judged or labelled cocky? How did the person react…Were they happy for you or not? What is your relationship with that person now? Is it possible to be humble and great?

THEME
December is all about celebrating the FANTABULOUS you. Be your biggest supporter, shout about you, your race, your culture, what you do, your achievements, love you, be you, do you and for the people who don’t like your new found self-confidence, tell them to step aside and to not interrupt you.
We are not asking you to be big-headed, cocky or to pertain to be better than anyone else but we are saying it’s completely okay to acknowledge the great qualities that make-up who you are and to wave your “I Am Proud Of Myself”flag high as a kite.
If you have anything worth celebrating yourself for this month, we want to know all about it – birthday’s, passing your driving test, getting a certain grade, starting a new hobby, conquering your greatest fear, forgiving someone who hurt you, finally clearing out the junk underneath your bed, being punctual for school, having the courage to say goodbye to people in your life who are a burden – whatever it is we’re going to help you have a BIG fat Skool Celebration!
You can get involved by submitted content, photo’s or idea’s based on the information above and you can also join in on social media with the hash tag – #skoolstyle and if we like it will we regram or repost.
COLOUR SCHEME
Visual work / Photo guideline: For every monthly theme we have a colour scheme. For December’s “Celebrating Yourself” theme, the colours are red, white and pink. Think candy canes, stripes, confetti, balloons and candy-floss pink.
