I think
uniform is the key there. If you're having to wear a uniform, you're going to absolutely want to be able to wear whatever when you don't have it on.
When you're given a dress code to abide to, you began to adapt to it, especially when it's a money issue. You don't want to be buying two sets of clothes just to go out on the weekends, and then buy additional stuff for the school year. Celebrities don't tend to go out in t-shirts and torn pants anyway, and that's how I see it. I'd rather spend my money on the hottest style shirts, pants, and shoes, rather than fit in with everyone else.
And it taught me about money too, because what's the point in spending $100 on a years worth of t-shirts when they'll only last you for that year? The clothes I'm wearing now are from when I was 12. Now I'm 22 and they still are in top condition after 100+ washes and fit perfect. They cost a little more, yeah, but they're there in case I want to donate or keep them.
