School’s Out

Now that school’s out for the summer (isn’t that an Alice Cooper song?) and I don’t have to meet students every day, my work clothes can be a lot more relaxed, and more relaxing, too. Not that my work clothes are ever formal or business-like (one of the things I love about working at a film school), but I always try dressing a bit more professionally whenever I have to teach – blouses and skirts and heels instead of T-shirts and flats, for example. But as these are the last days of the semester, I can afford to be a little more comfortable.

These pants are quickly becoming my go-to for the summer. They’re ridiculously comfy, they go with everything, and apparently, linen is a big trend this summer, so they’re an all-around winner. Same goes for these loafers. The pointed toes make them more dressy than your average flats, but they still retain all the comfort. I’m finding it increasingly harder to wear heels. Just one day in heels and my knees would be killing me. Maybe I’m getting old.
