This is really more “teachery” than I normally am. Some people might say I should look “teachery” every day in light of the fact I am a teacher after all. And that’s okay, but following the norm goes against every fiber of my being.
I don’t dress inappropriately; I’m always mindful of the girls not being on display, I don’t show too much leg, I don’t wear graphic tees with inappropriate slogans or political statements, and I most certainly would never be caught dead wearing yoga pants to school.
That being said, I do march to the beat of my own drum. I love fashion, and I have fun with it. Pretty much every day. It makes me feel good, and I enjoy it. If I don’t look like your run of the mill stereotypical teacher then so be it. Just because I don’t wear a suit every day, have seven tattoos, and swear like a drunken sailor (umm…no, I don’t do that in the company of children) doesn’t mean I’m not a damn fine educator. ‘Nuff said.

Style Tip: What you wear should be an expression of who you are. Don’t be afraid of that.
