My children do not have to wear school uniforms since they are home schooled but there are some schools in our area that do require students to wear uniforms. I am of mixed opinion about this. On one hand I can see what some kids complain about because they lose their sense of style and personality however I can see the school and the parent’s side in that there is no name calling because one kid has better clothes or no more worries about what your child is going to wear for the day. If your children have to wear school uniforms finding the right place to purchase them can be a difficult task as well. I don’t know where the parents in our area get their children’s uniforms. In fact I can’t recall seeing school uniforms in any of the local stores. However, I have found one place that has it all: French Toast Uniforms

TESTING French Toast Uniforms:
I received four wonderful items from French Toast Uniforms to review. My children love getting new clothes and they don’t care if it is school uniforms or not. I received two items for each of them that I felt would be best used and could be worn at any time with anything.
First up was the Short Sleeve Gather Front Blouse. The blouse is a cotton blend and with the gathered empire style it is perfect for body type. Which is great because Victoria is a little pudgy. This shirt made her look great without having to feel bad about herself. It is only available in white and wears very well. I have washed and dried it several times and it still looks like new, which is saying a lot considering it had some of that wonderful red Georgia clay on it.
The next item Victoria got was a Short Sleeve Skinny Placket Fitted Polo. this shirt is a cotton,polyester blend. It is available in blue, red,navy, white, and yellow. You can also have the school logo added if your school has submitted their logo to French Toast uniforms. This shirt is Victoria’s new favorite shirt. It wears super well and washes just as well although I must tell you that I wash it in cold water with like colors and line dry it.
Daniel also received two great shirts. The first was a Long Sleeve Oxford Shirt. This shirt is available in blue, white, and yellow and is a cotton polyester blend. I was a little unsure about the size and this one ended up being a little large on him but he loves it. he said it makes him look cool. I like how easy to wash it is and how even easier to iron it is. I hate ironing shirts!
The other shirt he got was a shirt Sleeve Pique Polo. Okay I guess when I told French Toast the items I would like I didn’t pay even attention to the fact that this is a girl’s shirt. however he hasn’t noticed and it is really one of those shirts that can go either way. The cut is great and it is available in several colors including: black, blue, navy, red, and white. Like the other polo it washed and wears very well. I also line dry it.
