In effort to avoid looking like I was attending a funeral today, I threw in some reddish/maroonish/berryish colored tights. The tights just happened to match my maroonish booties – a happy coincidence. To complete this berry theme, the boots and tights also matched my not-so-new-anymore-since-I-wear-it-all-the-time-now Rimmel ‘bordeaux’ lipstick. Some kid today said that I actually looked a bit “teacher-ish” except for the red tights and boots that elicit a “omg I love your shoes” type response. So….the trick to looking like a teacher is: bun, glasses, black dress, black cardigan. Thanks, kid for the fashion advice. I’ll remember it, because unlike you (for now), I am good at listening (most of the time).
glasses: warby parker – circle scarf and necklace: h&m (I think, it’s hella old) – cardigan: j.crew – dress and tights: uniqlo (last year) – booties: ecote via uo
By the way, my lesson today was on graphing. As in what is a graph, which is the X axis, how to graph using a table and identifying the independent vs. dependent variable.
Kid: Miss, this is maaad easy! Why are we doing this?
Thinking to myself: Yeah, it should be ‘mad easy’, considering they’re in the 10th grade.
Me: If you think it’s so ‘maaaad easy’, then why was your graph hella wrong on the cellular respiration lab?
Kid: What’s ‘hella’, miss?
Mental note: replace ‘hella’ with ‘mad’ from now on.
Wear the tights with black booties, change your scarf to a lighter shade – beige, if you want to be elegant, vivid green if you would like to achieve a bohemian-look, or silver if you want to stand out. Wear with a long statement necklace (colorful and/or with silver chains). Your hair-makeup-glasses are absolutely OK. 🙂 You will be anything but `teacher-ish`. 😉
