  2. Get to work. Buy things like Polo's in bright, but plain colors, like yellow, green, brown, or red. Or get T-shirts with video game characters and superheroes on it, like Megaman, Mario, Superman or Sonic(there are many available at Target). Buy button up shirts (like you usually wear with school uniforms). Pinstripes are the best. If you are a girl, add random school patches on it, and sew/write your own caption under it. If you're a boy, wear a nice, plain, boring teacher tie with it (Marshalls).Dress%20Like%20a%20Cool%20Nerd%20Step%202%20Version%202.jpg
  3. Get bottoms. Wear plaid, skirts (with either plain, or multi colored), but not too long. Or you can get bright, colored Jeans (they're not like jeans, but like skinny denim leggings). Get them in, like, yellow, red, or matching your top (available at American Apparel). Wear things like leg warmers in plain argyle and plain colors. For boys, wear relax fit jeans, like Levi's, but never dark, always plain dusty colors. Or wear khakis.Dress%20Like%20a%20Cool%20Nerd%20Step%203%20Version%202.jpg
