Let's be honest: One of the best things about going back to school, if you're fortunate, is the new wardrobe that starts off the year. The frilly dresses and trendy tops, clean kicks and fresh haircuts ... who wouldn't love it? Back to school can even be a way to reinvent yourself.

If you're thinking, "But I wear a uniform." That's OK. You still have the weekend to wow them. Cameron, Jada and Dennis sacrificed a sunny afternoon to model back-to-school fashions at the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science just for you. Who are we kidding? It wasn't a sacrifice.

Be sure to check out the fashion show at the JFP Gallery, as well as this week's Issuu, and get some great ideas for your reinvention!
