If you're a person that can handle slightly delayed gratification, shopping at shein is the best thing since sliced bread. The majority of cute clothing found on amazon can also be found on shein. Given, it doesn't[...]

This year I'm not only doing back-to-school shopping, I'm doing back-to-the-classroom after being out of it for two years rebuilding. To be honest, I didn't even know where to start and had to do an intense inventory of[...]

Happy Friday! I'm following up on my previous post sharing my favorite teacher picks for back-to-school shopping while browsing the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Today was my "access" day being a cardholder and I was able[...]

c/o: frankie4 For some of us it may be too early to start talking about back-to-school things-- I totally get it... However, this year, I am not one of those teachers 🙂 It's hard enough to contain my excitement[...]

My favorite part about guest teaching is having the opportunity to repeat teach in the various classrooms and watching the kids faces light up when you're back. I've always been really big on building relationships with[...]

I'm really behind on all things having to do with life, blogging, and teaching... for none other than the fact I accidentally sedated myself for 36 hours. I had allergies when I was little but outgrew them until last year. Literally... on the day they came back. I went outside in my back yard to te[...]
Ah! Wellll helllo! I'm hoping it's as sunny wherever you are as it is in the lovely little pacific north west! We have about a month left of school and I've been searching high and low for some fun outfit ideas for the next few weeks. It's bananas that my brain is already going into back-to-school[...]
the D R E S S pants debacle It's very rare I am able to find a pair of dress pants that check every box. Comfortable? Pockets? Fit normal in the thigh area? Right length? Holds shape? Stays nice after washing? Can wear with tucked and untucked shirts? Reasonably priced? Literally almost impo[...]

There are one hundred and one insane sales going on right now! I was laying in bed yesterday morning wishing my apple tree had hundo dollar bills growing on it! My investigative spirit had to google what is money made out of? I'm shocked. COTTON AND LINEN FIBER? So money and clothes are basical[...]
My mind can't stop thinking about ways to prevent these little printed slides from appearing on the "Rest In Peace, Buckley ate me!" shoe list.

I am still in slight shock from the answers on my instagram post that posed the question: when do you go back to school? I had no idea all the different educational cycles circulating around our country-- it's intense. No wonder back-to-school ads start popping up while I'm still teaching d[...]
If you look back in my camera roll for the last 25 years (ha...I guess realistically since 2007), there is a 94.7% chance I'm wearing cut on jean shorts on the 4th of July. I mean, cut off jean shorts are basically the spokesbottoms for BBQ's and country concerts across the United States. I mig[...]

Teacher tees are to teachers as sorority tees are to sorority girls. In college I had an entire drawer devoted to my three little letters. Now I have the same drawer jammed back with positive messages and teacher tees. My go-to teacher tee outfit is either Monday or Friday on our more casual outfit[...]
I have been a FabFitFun super fan for the last couple of years and each box keeps getting better! I've already used almost everything from my spring box. There's nothing worse than stumbling upon the current FabFitFun box on pinterest only to realize the box is sold out. Thankfully, FabFitFun[...]
In my educational career, I've had two interviews. One for a paraprofessional position while student teaching and the other for my first teaching position. I can recall every little detail to both outfits worn. Not due to my love for fashion, but because I was so nervous about each and every asp[...]
