I had a cute elementary teacher friend tell me she would love it if I shared some teacher outfit ideas. So I rounded up a few outfits and will share them over the next several days.  I hope that this might inspire you to create similar outfits with pieces from your own closet. Of course, I will link everything below each graphic in case you’re interested.

What kind of clothing do teachers need?

Here’s the thing wiht teacher clothes.  They need COMFORT.  They need to move around the classroom easily and they might be on their feet a lot during the school day. Most are looking for style at a great price.

 

The Black Dress

Whether you are petite or plus size, black dresses will pair with so many other pieces giving lots of variety… and COMFORT!

Quite often, dresses are more comfortable than pants, if you get the right one.

When shopping for a black dress, try to find a loose dress with lots of give. Nothing tight. This particular black dress is one of my favorites! It is a must-have piece of clothing for a cute teacher who needs comfort and style. It’s comfortable, loose-fitting, and best of all… wrinkle-free!!! Oh yes… wad it up and throw it in a drawer… it will not wrinkle! The pockets offer a place for keys, phone, treats, kleenexes, or whatever!

I love the versatility of a simple black dress. For a fun twist, throw a graphic tee or white button-down shirt over it and tie a knot in front! This creates the look of a top and skirt. Add any third piece like a cardigan, blazer, or denim jacket for interest.

Third pieces that go great with your teacher clothes

 

Top your little black dress with any cardigan, blazer, or jacket from your closet. For warmer weather, the sleeveless cardigan is one of my favorites!
