The Uniform Project

I love projects like this. And for a good cause? How can you beat it? not with a stick, I tell you.
The lovely adorable girl has made a pledge to wear the same dress (she has 7 of them) everyday for the next 365 days. She calls it The Uniform Project. Today is day 47 and she is going strong. The dress was specially designed to be worn both back and front open and clothes and has deep hidden pockets.
"The Story of Uniforms
I was raised and schooled in India where uniforms were a mandate in most public schools. Despite the imposed conformity, kids always found a way to bend the rules and flaunt a little personality. Boys rolled up their sleeves, wore over-sized swatches, and hiked up their pants to show off their high-tops. Girls obsessed over bangles, bindis and bad hairdos. Peaking through the sea of uniforms were the idiosyncrasies of teen style and individual flare. I now want to put the same rules to test again, only this time I'm trading in the catholic school fervor for an eBay addiction and relocating the school walls to this wonderful place called the internet."
