Kids nowadays dress up themselves to express
their hidden emotions as well as to show others
which groups or 'families' they are belong too.
From skateboarding to hip-hop, all of them have
some kind of dress code that reflect each group
identities, which is good if they move to new
places. They can get along and mix easily with
other boys and girls that share same interests
with them.
The dress codes might be different from each
other but we can say they all belong to the same '
phylum', which is named as urban fashion, street
fashion or street wear. To dress up, what they
need is a t-shirt, a pair of jeans and a nice
pair of shoes. Although they share same
similarities on what they wear, cuts, sizes and
how they wear them differentiate different groups.
Forget about price, brands and high-end cuts.
Today, these do not matter. A simple t-shirt with
a cool graphics on it counts the most. Even a
coca-cola t-shirt can be a hot stuff today.
Anyway, pre-teens, most of the time, have hard
times to choose the right apparels. This may due
to lack of experience and they are not mature yet.
Fear not, choosing the right tops, shirts and
kicks are not difficult at all. All you need to
remember are the theme and the right colours.
To make things easy, remember these rules. Do
not exceed three different main colours and make
a focus point. Branded items are good for style
and status, but do not buy something you do not
afford. Brands and expressive are not the main
part in the beauty equation.
Take your time to learn how style works. Buy
skateboarding, music etc magazines. Buy something
real. It is okay to invest in something that can
fix your impression as well as to make your teen
life enjoyable and memorable. If you want to get
a head start on street wear, feel free to visit
