Anonymous asked: Hi Katherine, love your blog and style. I'm hoping for a little advice. I start teachers' college shortly and I'd like to be prepared wardrobe wise. I'd like to look professional but not like I'm trying too hard or that I'm dressing too old for my age. I live in chch if that helps, I'd appreciate any tips on what/wear to buy. Thank you!
Hello! Thanks!
If you’re in New Zealand I’m going to say that most people dress quite casually at teachers’ college - I know this because I’ve lived near one for many years and I see everyone going there.
Despite that, I’m glad you want to dress up a bit! It’s refreshing. I’m going to assume you’re a girl. Let me know if you’re not. I think blouses and shirts are a good way to go. That and pencil skirts. And if you can find a pair, some ankle length wool suit pants or similar in navy or charcoal or beige or pretty much anything would be amazing. Wear them with flats.
Basically, I’d just try to not look scruffy. Make sure things are clean and ironed and that your hair is tidy and your shirt is tucked in properly (if it’s supposed to be tucked in) and if you’re wearing jeans, that there’s no rips in them.
GOOD LUCK!
