Dress Your Age
I have decided to dedicate my first blog to dressing your age. As I have roamed the hallways of the school I have noticed teachers both dressing too young and teachers dressing too old. If you are somewhere around 42 years old and appear to be a student who is late to school (because you are carrying your back pack, wearing khaki pants, a Hollister sweat shirt, and UGG boots) you should probably re-think your attire when you wake up by asking yourself when you look in the mirror: What Was I Thinking? Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with this attire for a student who is going for the comfy look, but I do not suggest that an adult working in a professional environment choose to wear this to work. Some people would probably think that I am against UGG boots, that I am not. I will be the first person to say that UGG boots are perhaps the most comfortable shoe that ever touched my sole. I will say again, I do not believe them appropriate for a teacher at work, especially when paired with a Hollister sweat shirt. So if this is not the appropriate attire, one might ask, what is? Well, I suggest dress pants paired with a blouse and flats or heals, a dark wash pair of appropriate fitting jeans along with a nicer blouse, a dress suit when you're feeling extra professional, a skirt and top, or khaki pants along with a nice blouse paired with flats or appropriate tennis shoes. Of course there are a variety of other options, but these are the ones I highly suggest. I hope my first post wasn't offensive to anyone, but keep in mind, I am only trying to help. I sincerely would like you to look the best that you can, because I believe that you have the potential!
