Problem: Like most Catholic schoolgirls , I had a love - hate relationship with my uniform . It was an unflattering , unwieldy thing that hid the curves our adolescent bodies were just starting to develop : precisely what the nuns who designed the garment had in mind . I went to Miriam , where the girls wore green pleated skirts and loose tan blouses from grade school to high school . It was a color combination that got us endless teasing from students of rival schools who likened us to inverted trees , although we had our own witty comebacks about year - round Christmas decorations and Goldilocks waitresses . The outfit was finished off with white socks emblazoned with the school initials paired with shiny black shoes , with heels that could go no higher than two inches .

It would only blink it 's eyelids every once in a while .
