    Though I am in an online school recently I went to one of our many events for online students. Everyone seemed to know someone and it didnt take long to see cliques forming. Most of the "popular" girls so to say were wearing tight skinny jeans, some sort of weird thick tongued sneakers, a "butterfly" shirt, you know big on the arms, then flowy, and fitted around the waist? and very dark makeup :P Poor me showed up in capris, a tank top with a loose sweater unbuttoned, my hair all curly and almost no makeup with my running shoes ;D
