We heart teachers

It's the start of the school year for many people around Australia (a little delayed here in Queensland). I come from a family of teachers - my dad and step-mum are retired teachers; my late mum and step-dad were teachers; my youngest brother is a teacher and now my daughter is going back to uni to follow in these family footsteps.

I know (secondhand) just how hard teachers work. And I can't imagine the level of stress the past two years has added to their workload. That extra layer of unknown and disruption doesn't seem to be disappearing any time soon. 

I can't change that but I can do is celebrate our teachers. We did a call out recently for teacher ambassadors and throughout February we'll be sharing the style and the work of 12 teachers from all around Australia. If you missed the call-out, we'll be doing it again later in the year. Sign up HERE to be first in the know. 

What we'll also be sharing are my tips for work wardrobe organisation and outfit planning - for everyone (not just teachers) wanting to start the year stressing less about the daily what to wear question . 

It's something I do to make the weekday mornings run a little smoother - and it starts with our non-boring basics as foundation pieces. Scroll on for a look at some of our best-sellers.
