I've changed the way I dress. I used to enjoy being fashionable and would get bored with wearing the same things eventually. That was because I wanted things that stood out. Then I noticed a new teacher who wore the same things every day, and I noticed it looked nice and also professional. She wore long straight, usually gray, skirts and knit tops that fit in light colors, medium tone neutral colors, and a sweater, along with the same black sandals EVERY day. Well, I LOVE twirly skirts and have several, but I finally found some below the knee straight skirts in 4 neutral colors and lately 2 more, and I wear them almost like a uniform. I'm uncomfortable wearing skirts above the knee to school. So long skirts and the big jewelry thing is my new style. I don't want to stand out any more. I just want to have authority and respect and students who listen to me without being distracted by how I'm dressed.
But as for shoes, I never wear the same pair 2 days in a row because it wears the shoes out faster if they don't rest between wearing. Luckily I've found some new shoes that fit my long skinny foot, and I those along with my old standbys that I replace every now and then. One big thing for me, though, is that I finally found a pair of "flip flops" that fit and I'm getting used to them, although I haven't worn them out anywhere yet. = ]
