I like your streamlined style. You do look professional, and these outfits look like they can carry you through your long days with great style. I started to try to pick favorites, but it was futile. Kept wanting to add "just one more" to the list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951270 Sun, 26 Aug 2018 03:34:14 +0000 cindysmith 1951270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very very well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951259 Sun, 26 Aug 2018 02:37:23 +0000 Jaime 1951259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits - they look great for students. Current and sophisticated. Love your shoe collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951257 Sun, 26 Aug 2018 02:33:33 +0000 jussie 1951257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all your outfits. My favorites are 1 and 7. The colour of the dress in 7 is gorgeous and the drapey cardi in 1 is lovely with that lighter print top under it :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951245 Sun, 26 Aug 2018 00:15:22 +0000 Anonymous 1951245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I particularly love the way you style with your denim jackets. I would also be interested in seeing what the pairing of the sweater in #1 with the dresses might look like as alternate.<br /> I think all your outfits say relatable but commanding attention/ authority.<br /> Good job- 2 thumbs up and best wishes for a great school year to you and teachers everywhere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951217 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 20:40:39 +0000 chouette22 1951217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in the exact same boat as you - our students (college) are coming back this Monday as well and I have been in lots of meetings recently. Love ALL of your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951207 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 20:16:44 +0000 The Cat 1951207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a great, personal style. Interesting lines and details.</p> <p>I imagine that some of your outfits, in particular those without a topper, like #2, #4 and #7, would benefit from adding an artsy-looking accessory like a handcrafted necklace or brooch or a colourful scarf or shawl. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951203 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 19:42:46 +0000 catherine 1951203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, my feet are pretty narrow, but long. The loafers are Naturalizer, which I know you like, in 9.5 N.<br /> The others are Vaneli, which run .5 size small for me, so 10 N. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951187 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 18:12:34 +0000 Angie 1951187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Catherine</b>, I think we have similar feet. Talk to me about the loafers in #3 and the points in #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951178 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 17:50:55 +0000 Greyscale 1951178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of these! That cropped white jacket is great on you. You’re playing a lot with vertical proportions here and my favorites are the cropped jacket over long layers. I’ve been shopping for a new black denim jacket and this makes me reconsider the hip-length one I just found in favor of some cropped option I haven’t found yet.</p> <p>From your location, I wonder if you teach at the same college as my brother. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951171 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 17:13:16 +0000 JAileen 1951171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They’re all excellent, but I love 3. The jean jacket and the patterned shoes with the dress really appeals to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951168 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 15:56:57 +0000 rachylou 1951168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Snazzy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951166 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 15:45:36 +0000 Carla 1951166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love number 3 on you -YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951160 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 15:09:14 +0000 Anonymous 1951160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did nail it as others have said. I like the structure of your jean jackets on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951159 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 14:59:15 +0000 Becky 1951159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Many of my colleagues dress more casually than I would be comfortable with dressing (for myself). I try to look as professional as possible, while still being able to physically do what I need to do (I teach elementary school, but not the youngest students). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951157 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 14:46:00 +0000 catherine 1951157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Becky and Angie. I teach at the college level. Lots of people dress VERY casually, but somehow that doesn’t seem quite right to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951155 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 14:39:05 +0000 Angie 1951155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo,<b> Becky.</b> You nailed this, and then some. KILLER all round.</p> <p> I would have loved to have been in a classroom with a teacher who dressed like you, <b>Catherine</b>. #3 is my fave. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951150 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 14:31:09 +0000 Becky 1951150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you've nailed it. These are all professional looks, while remaining comfortable and practical for the work you need to do. I would wear any of these outfits to work (I teach). I don't know what level you teach, but getting a classroom ready can take some physical effort too, what with moving furniture around, climbing up and down ladders to hang things . . .&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/meetings-and-other-nonsense#post-1951148 Sat, 25 Aug 2018 14:27:50 +0000 catherine 1951148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our students return on Monday and I can’t wait to meet my new cohort. Meanwhile, the days have been busy with meetings and other things. Trying to stay comfy for these 10-12 hour stretches while still maintaining the guise of professionalism .<br /> Please advise on improvements, and I again thank all of you for your great outfit posts. I couldn’t get dressed without you. </p>
