School's Out for Summer



I wore this for the last day of classes, and it was a fan favorite (at least according to my students, and that was before I told them we could have class outside and gave them ice cream sandwiches). I'm never sure what to do when my students compliment my clothes. On one hand, I choose my teaching looks with an eye toward looking both professional and hip (or, hip for a 30-something nerd) so that my students will think I'm cool. On the other, I want them to respect me because I'm smart and interesting, not because of my looks. Plus, there's something not quite right about having that much attention on my body. But on this occasion, since I felt this outfit to be plenty professional, and since it was the last day of school, I decided not to worry about it.
