What
a great week to work with kids! I have had the best week and it’s only
Tuesday. I love where I work and I am
excited to get all the experience I can this year before my student teaching in
fall of 2014. My blog is still a work in
progress, but I have enjoyed having fun with all my ideas. I was reading through some other teacher
fashion blogs and wondering how I would compete with such wonderful
ladies. Then I decided I wouldn’t, I
would just make my own blog. I decided I
really don’t have to be the best writer, most fashionable, super creative,
amazing model. All I need to do is write
what I love and maybe someone will read about it and agree with me.
#1
I love teaching. It’s my passion in life.
#2 I love clothes. ‹especially getting clothes for a great deal.› So I begin my blog journey with a pair and
share. I paired with my best friend Janessa to put some outfits together from
clothing I already had, with the exception of a few new essential pieces.
First
my blazer bliss. I am in love with my
new blazer from Forever 21. I search
high and low for one that fit me the way I wanted and found it for half the
price of everywhere else. A whopping $16!
I have already combined the blazer look a million ways and decided it looks
good with everything. You can dress it
up or dress it down. Even though in the
Utah heat it’s hard to keep on, except in the freezing classroom, it makes all
my outfits go from being blah to professional.
I
also added the oh so popular jean shirt to my clothing selection. I also found
this at Forever 21 for $19. I searched
but could not find one for a lower price.
I love that jean shirts can be dressed down or up as well. It also can
pair with just about anything.
Saturday
when helping my mom at a soccer tournament I went with a laid back look. My dressy t-shirt (Express $10), Silver Jeans
from two years ago, and flip-flops my mom got hand-made for me in Africa. The top knot has become one of my most
favorite looks.
Monday
I wore my blazer with another dressy Express shirt. Opting for a bright yellow to start out the
week in a cheery way. Black slacks and a
long dangly necklace and I was all good to go.
Also my hair was a having a great volume day, unusual for me.
Tuesday,
my white chevron flowy tank top (Buckle
several years ago when I worked there), the blazer, black slacks (Target $25), black beaded necklace (Premier Designs), and my new leopard print pointy flats (Target $16). The shoes were new for me, I never thought I could do the animal print look, but I liked the added color, especially gold toned, to my neutral toned outfit.

Wednesday
I wore my red maxi skirt (hand-me down), black tank top (hand-me down), Leopard
print shoes (Target), beaded necklace (Premier Designs), and jean shirt
(Forever 21).
Thursday: Green shirt (Express $10), pinstriped pants, blazer, white bubble necklace (Target $10), and white watch (Payless $16). I pulled my hair into a easy side bun. I got a lot of compliments! What a great day!
