Teacher Style {What I Wore}

As an elementary teacher the clothes you wear are extremely important. You are often on the floor with kids and you hardly ever sit down so comfort is a MUST. That being said I still want to look somewhat fashionable so I've been working on a few outfits. Here are a few I've put together...
1. Dress: Banana Republic, Sweater: LOFT, Belt: Limited
2. Dress: Whole Foods, Sweater, Kohl's (Lauren Conrad)
3. Dress: Kohl's, Blazer: H&M, Belt: Old Navy
4. Chambray Top: Limited, Striped Ponte Pencil Skirt: Limited  (I call this look my "Meg Henning"because when I put it together I thought of her so thanks Meg.)

I've really been trying to "up" my teacher style without spending a lot of money so I've been remixing my summer dresses. I'd love any suggestions for other cute and comfortable outfits you wear to work!
Merona Dress: Target, Necklace: Fossil, Boots: Fergalicious

All cute, but I especially love the striped skirt + chambray. Pencil skirts and chambray are the best combo ever, and stripes only add to it. Also love the striped Target dress in the last photo - I really wanted to be able to buy/fit into that one. Also, these outfits make me hope your school is air conditioned ;-)
