Hi ho, hi ho — back to school we go! And just like that, summer break is coming to an end. Here in Indiana, several school districts are already back and in full swing! Whether you’re back to the grind, or still soaking up the last few weeks of summer, you deserve to look [and feel] great in your teacher wardrobe this school year! In order to make your early mornings go smoothly, we’ve created a fall capsule, perfect for mixing and matching and making the most of your classroom looks! Think comfortable fits and shoes that yes, you can stand to stand in all.day.long. We have big hearts for our teachers here at LIY [my mom was a teacher for 35+ years with other moms of the LIY team still in the school systems]! Providing just a small amount of outfit inspiration for the year ahead is the least we can do.
PS. GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED! Congratulations to our winner Sarah Beiler, a local teacher from our community! Sarah teaches 2nd grade and has been an educator for 17 years. For reference, she is 5’5″ and wears size large. Below, we’ve rounded up several budget friendly basics that can easily mix and match to keep your fall wardrobe fresh [and early mornings a breeze] all semester long. May this school year be successful and your wardrobe be one less thing to stress about!
