Pay attention to your image. Have good hygiene and wear what flatters you.

Question
What if I think I am ugly?
Community Answer
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Nobody has the same idea of what "beautiful" is. Find a way to realize you are, in fact, beautiful.

Do I have to do my nails when being girly?

Community Answer
Of course not. If you want to do your nails, do them. if you don't, don't worry about it. Just keep your nails clean and avoid biting them.

How do I wear pink with black?

A cute pink blouse or button-up shirt would be cute with skinny black jeans (or you can swap the colors, it works either way).

Make sure your hair is neat. Set it to a different hairstyle everyday, to make everyone dazzled. Don't always leave your hair the same.

Get rid of your backpack for school and buy a vintage shoulder-bag. If you can't, add accessories to your backpack, or ask all your friends to sign on it.
