Dresses For Back to School Teacher Outfits

The search for the perfect back to school teacher outfit usually starts with me looking for the ultimate teacher dress. I love a dress that’s midi-length, but that still feels light and breezy. Our California days are usually sizzling hot during the first weeks of school, so staying cool is so important!

This crisp and simple white dress caught my eye this summer. Therefore, this beauty is definitely one of my top choices for my first day of school outfit this year!

I know some teachers will disagree, but I am a big fan wearing comfy wedges with most of my teacher outfits. And Toms is always my go-to brand of cute wedges. That’s because they have so many choices, and I can wear their shoes comfortably all day long. And we teachers know that having functional shoes is a must!

I’ve rounded up some other super cute dresses that would also make the perfect back to school outfit.

Skirts For Back to School Teacher Outfits

Teacher skirts are definitely another staple for my teacher outfits! All you need is some cute tank tops in neutral colors to pair with them. And then throwing together a cute back to school teacher outfit is a totally no-brainer.

Midi and maxi skirts are so comfortable, and I love that they can even be paired with a cute t-shirt knotted at the waist. I found this skirt on Amazon, and I fell in love with this gorgeous teal color. Another amazing thing about pleated skirts is that you don’t have to iron them! Hallelujah!

Usually, I like to wear my skirts with cute sneakers or flat sandals. In fact, it seems like sneakers and skirt trend was made for teachers, because who doesn’t want a teacher outfit that’s totally comfortable? In this outfit, I went for some basic metallic slip on sandals. I have a big thing for metallic shoes, because gold is basically a neutral, right?

Here are some of the cutest skirts I found vying for that first day of school teacher outfit spot!

Jumpsuits For Back to School Teacher Outfits

If you’re not into dresses and skirts, prepare to swoon over these amazing jumpsuits. More and more jumpsuits have snuck into my back to school teacher fashion. And it’s probably because they are one of the easiest teacher outfit ideas! One-piece items just make it so much easier to get dressed when you’re trying out rush out the door in the morning.

This jumpsuit is from Amazon, and it would make such a cute back to school teacher outfit. I love the color and how light it feels. Plus it has the best surprise… pockets! In this photo, I paired it with some cute Toms flats. I always keep one or two colors of these shoes in my teacher wardrobe, because they go with so many teacher outfits. (In case you’re wondering… this post is not sponsored by Toms, I just really love how comfy they are!)

I’ve gathered some of my favorite back to school teacher outfit jumpsuit ideas! Because who wouldn’t want a single item you can throw on and be ready to go?

Jeans and Tops For Back to School Teacher Outfits

Wearing jeans and a comfy teacher T can be really tempting when you’re having trouble nailing that first day of school teacher outfit. Well, here’s an instant upgrade if you just want to keep things simple.

First, start with a pair of white jeans for a more polished look. Next, pair that with a cute blouse, and you’ve got yourself a fool-proof back to school teacher outfit! I think wearing wedges brings the outfit up another notch, but flats would also be totally cute.

Recently, I fell in love with these white jeans from Old Navy. The cut is so flattering, and they have made their way into many of my teacher outfits. I also love the embroidery detail they have at the bottom. White jeans go with everything, so it's always good to have one or two pairs on hand! This cute yellow top is from Macy's, and it's on super sale right now if you act fast!

I found some other cute blouses and white jeans that would make great additions to any first day of school teacher outfit.

Shopping For Back to School Teacher Fashion

I often get the question of where to shop for teacher clothes. I definitely have a few places that I consistently come back to again and again for the best teacher outfits.

If you want to go out and shop yourself for the perfect back to school teacher outfit, here is my list of places that I continually find great teacher clothes:

Old Navy: I love that they are super affordable, but their quality feels like it will actually last more than one year. This is my go-to for teacher jeans and teacher jumpsuits.

Nordstrom Rack: I adore Nordstrom, but I don’t want to break the bank on clothes that I wear mostly just to the classroom. Nordstrom Rack is the answer! I especially love the skirts and dresses I can find at Nordstrom Rack!

Loft: Loft has amazing clothes that are perfect for teaching. Every time I walk in, I see so many things I want. They can be pricy, but Loft has amazing sales, so I always wait until what I’m looking for goes on sale, and I get it then. I especially love their blouses and dresses!

Target: Of course we can’t forget Target in a list of teacher essentials! I love Target for headbands, earrings, and accessories. They are also great for clothing basics, like neutral tank tops and t-shirt dresses.

I hope you now have lots of great ideas for putting together the perfect back to school teacher outfit!

Some of the best items to look for at Loft are:

• Jewelry: Their earrings, necklaces, and bracelets are super cute and very affordable!
• Shorts: I was sooo pleased with the shorts I found. Not too short, and very flattering.
• Dresses and Skirt: They have a wide variety of dresses and shorts – honestly something for everyone.
• Blouses: I love their selection of cute but simple blouses and tops.

Here are some of my favorite items I snagged in the Loft sale! I listed the prices that I got them at. I recommend putting items you want in your cart and then waiting a while to see if they go on sale!

These shorts are the perfect length! I was looking for shorts that were long enough to wear to school but that still felt stylish. The are very flattering with the tie waist, and also have big pockets which we teachers know is always a plus! I also was looking for white shirts that would match all of my shorts and skirts. These are both cute options.

How cute is this white blouse? I love the puff sleeves so much! It really pairs with any skirt to make it into an easy outfit. These skirts are both perfect for school. Not too long, not too short. It's hard to find denim skirts that are modest enough for teaching, but this one is great!

It's always hard for me to find fall and winter dresses. These two will both transition easily into the colder weather with just a sweater and some tights. Definitely worth holding onto! I was also looking for a lighter colored woven belt… bingo!

I've been trying to add more dangling earrings into my outfits (I'm usually a no-fuss studs girl). These earrings are simple enough to pair with most outfits, but also not boring. I am keeping them all!

I've been trying to hop on the top knot headband trend for ages, and I finally found one I like! The crinkle fabric on this pink headband is so pretty. I use headbands all the time for easy hair days, and these will all get a lot of wear!

Head to Loft before these amazing styles sell out! And if they're not on sale now… they probably will be soon!

What's your favorite place to shop for a good deal on teacher
clothes?
