Dressing as a teacher can be hard – you want your outfits to be exciting but professional and comfy enough to be on your feet all day. Here is a basic teacher capsule wardrobe and some outfit ideas to get you started!
It’s back to school season, and that means it’s time to talk about teacher outfits! I’ve had tons of requests to put together more teacher outfit ideas, after I shared THIS POST last year.
I wanted to put together some outfits with basic pieces for all the teachers – and I asked my teacher readers for their most tried and true clothing items. And instead of showing you 10 pieces and making 10 outfits with them, as many capsule wardrobes do, I wanted to share the essentials you really need, and then outfits with many of them.
Here are twenty essentials from actual teachers that you should have in your wardrobe.
20 Teacher Closet Staples
- No show socks
- Rothy’s
- Casual dresses (not too short and work with a sneaker)
- There are lots of good ones out there, but MERRICK WHITE COLLECTION are some of my favorites! They’re like pajamas, but so cute and super good quality.
- Comfy sneakers
- These are my all time favorite sneakers. So comfy, perfect cut, and easy to wear with dresses or skirts.
- Biker shorts for under dresses
- Layering (always cold in classrooms)
- Colored pants (not jeans)
- Comfy blazers
- If you’re not into regular blazers, a sweater blazer is a great idea that’s soft and comfy.
- Cardigans
- There are lots of great cardigans out there, but this one from Target is affordable and cute!
- Tops with higher or tighter necklines so you can lean across a table
- White jeans
- Black jeans
- Dressy joggers
- These aren’t especially dressy, but they’re my go-to joggers and CAN be dressed up! See them four ways RIGHT HERE.
- Button up shirts
- Ankle length pants
- I have two pairs that I’m showing in the outfits below – THIS ONE and THIS ONE. Both are great and affordable!
- Mules
- Better than basic tops
- These are tops that are nicer than a basic tee. I’m sharing a few good ones in the outfits below!
- Jean jacket that allow you to move your arms
- Look for one with elastane or spandex in the fabric so it has a little stretch!
- Big tote bag
- This Madewell tote bag is my go-to, but this bag from Target is so cute too.
- Tops long enough to cover your stomach when you raise your arms

They’re amazing outfits you shared! What about a similar post but about student fashion? I’m spending a lot of time studying and don’t have even ten minutes to choose something cuter than a hoodie and regular jeans. But now I started using this source https://samploon.com/free-essays/school-uniforms/ (also great materials about school uniforms) which helps me a lot with my study papers. So I got more time and wanna spend it on creating my own capsule wardrobe. I hope to see such an article soon!
