A pin or a brooch
Some schools may not allow this, but if yours does give it a try! You may being saying the only person I know who has a brooch is my grandmother, but still if you find one with a cool color or design, and pin it on your jacket or shirt, you’ll be sure to stand out.

A belt

Shoes
Even if you have a certain color shoe you have to buy, like black or brown, there’s no reason why it can’t be one you enjoy. Make sure you pick something you’re going to be comfortable in, but also adds something to your look.
