We know what a challenge it can be to choose a great teacher outfit. If you teach younger grades, there’s the glitter factor. Not to mention sitting on a carpet at storytime, but still wanting to look professional for parent-teacher conferences. And if you teach older kids, you want an outfit that is contemporary and polished yet doesn’t invite too much commentary from the peanut gallery.
Plus, there’s the reality of living on a teacher budget. That’s why our new #teacherootd blog series will explore awesome teacher outfits that you can pull together for $100 or less. Today’s crew found their looks from Target, but stay tuned for posts from more of your favorite retailers…and even the thrift store.
