This look is a great blend of dressy and casual. The skirt is comfortable, sandals are always a win, and the shacket is great for those freezing cold classrooms.

I love this dress! I purchased it for the first day of school. Anyone else treat themselves to a first-day-of-school outfit? This dress is the comfiest material. If you’re comfortable in a wedge, the ones linked below are cute, but I also think it would pair well with a flat or sandal. Because unless it’s test day, it’s sandal/flat day.
Buy it: Ruffle Dress at Amazon, Wedges at Altardstate, Sandals at Amazon
Jeans, T-Shirt, and Cardigan

This look is a Walmart find! I love the fit of the jeans and they are very comfortable. The cardigan is a staple in every teacher’s wardrobe. This outfit is perfect for casual Friday and always makes for one of the cuter teacher outfits.

If you’re at a school that has a fancier dress code, this look is for you! It could also be a great ensemble for a teacher interview. The kitten heels are truly comfortable for work, but you could sub in flats for heels if you’re looking to dress it down.

Ride the Barbie wave! There are pops of pink in several of these outfits because it seems everywhere you go, Barbie has invaded! I don’t mind it at all. I love brighter colors especially when the weather feels dull. It makes me feel like I am combatting the gloom with my outfits.

I love the classic black-and-white combination. Both the top and pants can be mixed and matched into countless combinations. Swap out sandals for a pair of closed toe shoes, and this is another great outfit option for a teacher interview.

I think the reason why I choose dresses so much during the weather-appropriate months is just because they are the easiest option. I just have to think about one piece and I’m all set. This one is like wearing a T-shirt—a big long bed-time T-shirt.
