You will never see me dressed like this in any month with a “u” in it. January and February are just too dang cold for pencil skirts and pumps and June, July, and August…well, come on now, as Alice Cooper would say school’s out for summer! So no work wear for this girl! Elle from Living In Color Style and Jacqueline from Stylin In St. Louis are hosting a Professional Dress: Work Style Link Up today so I thought it would be good practice for the inevitable rapidly approaching first day of school.
To be perfectly honest, as you will see in the upcoming months I don’t typically dress quite like this for work. I don’t dress inappropriately, but I do like to push the envelope a little bit. I guess I’m a rebel at heart… I mean really, how many elementary teachers do you know with seven tattoos?
In case anyone was wondering, yes, the glasses are real. Unfortunately, they aren’t a fashion statement. I’m supposed to wear them all of the time, but I hate anything on my face, so I pretty much don’t wear them. It’s only really a problem when oh, I don’t know…I need to see!
Also linking up with Tara at Mix and Match Fashion for her Summer Style Link Up and Meghan and Bethany for their Three-fer Thursday Link Up.
Style Tip: Always be yourself. You can dress appropriately for the occasion, but still be unique through the use of colors, textures, patterns, and accessories.
