This outfit is very easy. Dress yourself in your shirt and skirt. Leave one or two of the buttons on the shirt unbuttoned at top. Now put on your school tie. You don't want to knot it tight, the way a regular tie is. Instead, have it hanging loosely with the knot of the tie between your chest area.

Your makeup should look natural but very classy. Think rich.

The last step is putting on your long blonde wig. If you have natural blonde hair, style it straight.
