1. Because simple is always chic.

Pairing a graphic tee with a high waisted skirt and some sandals is an effortless way to look professional but stay comfortable at the same time.
Â
2. Because black is the new black.

Sneakers with a little black dress always looks classy but youthful.
Â
3. Because black leggings don’t make you basic.

Layering neutral colors is a great way to make a statement without getting out of hand with patterns and colors.
Â
4. Because leopard print is a neutral.

This is a great example of stylish and trendy accessories elevating a casual outfit.
Â
5. Because MUSTARD YELLOW.

Wide leg trousers and a mustard yellow top show that you’re in the game. A white cardigan shows that you also like to not freeze in your classroom.
Â
6. Because colored trousers aren’t just for ladies.

This guy has confidence and I would trust him to teach my child.
Â
7. Because a comfy sweater is always there for you.

If you can’t wear your PJ’s to work, you might as well your favorite sweater, your favorite jeans, and obviously your favorite sneakers.
Â
8. Because Friday is the best.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYzgawhHyE9/?taken-by=missartofteaching
Of course it’s ok to admit that you surrender for the next two days. We all feel the same way.
Â
9. Because you can wear all black and not look like you’re going to a funeral.

Adding an unexpected silhouette in the trousers creates a unique effect that somehow makes this monotone outfit exciting.
Â
10. Because classrooms are freezing and scarves are pretty.

There’s no telling on any given day what kind of climate you will be dealing with at school—it’s either hot as you-know-what or the arctic. Nothing in between. Am I right?
Â
11. Because a statement necklace turns up the volume of any outfit.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYwWtjMDjWW/?taken-by=mathenista
Buffalo check, a neon necklace, comfy pants, and gladiator sandals? There’s a lot going on here and I love all of it.
Â
12. Because I can get behind this outfit 100% even if it’s not even Spirit Week. Especially if it’s not Spirit Week.

Subtle cosplaying a character that every student could learn from is always in good fashion, let’s be honest.
Â
13. Because those flats look amazing.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYweWLyH7Ol/?taken-by=primarystyle81
An animal print with a khaki skirt is a fun play on work attire while still maintaining the professional look you might be striving for.
Â
14. Because big, bold floral patterns can make you look less like Laura Ashley and more like Ashley Olsen.

I don’t even know if this is a dress or a romper or a jumpsuit but I support it.
Â
15. Because you can layer and still look unique.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYwlvrhD6Eb/?taken-by=craftingyourclassroom
I’ve never tried to wear a necklace WITH a scarf but I’m sure going to try now.
Â
16. Because why be the only stylish person in your school?
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYwuNxCAwUH/?taken-by=chalk_it_up_to_style
Pencil skirts and shift dresses with flats somehow make their legs look longer and I have no idea how this is happening.
Â
17. Because your eyebrows are ON POINT.

This is how you take a basic white top and turn it funky but professional at the same time—gorgeous accessories.
Â
18. Because you are that teacher who is crafty enough to paint their own shoes, no big deal.

These are the cutest things I have ever seen. If you try to create your own, make sure to hashtag them on Instagram with #TeacherStyle!
Â
19. Because ice cream cone earrings exist.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYxQF4aDh1m/?taken-by=missmcdonaldhadaclass
Teachers totally get a free pass to wear whimsical things like earrings with food attached to them. Feel free to take advantage of this. Especially if it involves ice cream.
Â
20. Because those shoes.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYxrphtAhrH/?taken-by=taunusmutti
Some comfy looking cigarette style pants are the best way to show off those amazing sling backs.
Â
21. Because your students love colors.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYx4CAijf5H/?taken-by=svesnavesna
Looking comfortable in your own skin and maintaining your own fun personal style is a great way to engage students with what you’re saying.
Â
22. Because who else can get away with wearing this dress, guys.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYyJsq2gZOu/?taken-by=rockingearlychildhood
There is no shame in having your school supply list on your dress for everyone to take note of. SHE NEEDS GLUE.
Â
23. Because you are adorable.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYyPIxjlAp_/?taken-by=pairingswithperi
A blouse with tassels hanging from it seems like the perfect top to wear on a Monday when you literally can’t.
Â
24. Because fashion is supposed to be fun.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYyIBPvDN3F/?taken-by=applesandabcs
Being well put together for work does not always have to mean pencil skirts and button-down shirts. Sometimes it can just mean your lipstick matches your amazing jacket.
Â
25. Because sneaking in a little LuLaRoe is always a good choice.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BYwoZxjn1TI/?taken-by=oneteachersstyle
She also found that dress for $10 on sale. Crayola look on a Roseart budget.
