I’ve only ever written one post dedicated to teachers and it was one of my most popular posts – ever! Since writing that post in August, I’ve had numerous requests for another one and I’m finally delivering.
Five Petite-Friendly Outfits for Teachers

Petite-Friendly Chinos
Comfortable pants you can move around in, and they come in a few different spring colors – yes please! This pair of pants fits well in my true size, Petite 00. They do loosen up with wear as most chinos do. The top is also true to size but needs a cami under it to not be see-through.

Printed Pants
If you love fun prints, these floral pants are a great pair to add to your wardrobe. Although they’re printed, you can really wear a few different colors with them to still get a good amount of wear out of them. I would pair them with white and red as well. They run a little bit big, I’m wearing them in Petite 00 and they have a little room on me.

Cropped Flares
Ok ok, I know white pants aren’t going to work for every grade level, but I wanted to include them as an option. You could swap in some black jeans or pants with this outfit if needed. You could also swap the heels for comfortable flats instead, however these heels in particular are comfortable and easy to walk in for extended periods of time.

Black Jeans
The outfit I’m most likely to wear to work right here! I work in a small medical practice and black jeans are fair game there, so I wear them the most. This sweater is tunic length but it can be worn tucked as I have it here too. It’s soft and last I checked still had other pretty spring colors available.

Casual Friday
The teachers at my son’s school wear jeans so I felt it was fair to throw this one in! If you ask me, teachers should be able to wear jeans in general with as much as they move around and stay on their feet. If jeans aren’t in your dress code, I’ll also share a pair of navy pants that would work well with this top! Fit notes on my jeans, they’re tight at first but stretch out a lot with wear, so stick to your true size.
