The Savvy Stylist: Student Teaching

Reader Request

I start student teaching at a high school this fall and I have nothing to wear. I'm going to need a professional wardrobe, but since student teachers don't get paid, I'm going to be on a strict budget. Can you help me put together an outfit or two that are professional but still stylish? I'm in my early 20's and look young, so I want to be sure that I don't look like the students I'll be teaching.

This look, which costs only $99.67, is chic but practical, mature but not stuffy. I hope you like it and good luck with your student teaching!
