It is hot in South Texas!  Yesterday’s heat index was 105…so no doubt, we still have summer to deal with though school has begun.

This is what I wore for the first day of teaching high school.  I have started my 15th year as a teacher, so I thought it deserved a few pops of color for celebration!

Living in San Antonio, we love our color!  A color explosion floods the senses everywhere you go.

The first time I wore this CHICO’S jacket on the blog, I styled the look with bronze ballet flats, and a simple gold necklace.  But today, I wore these STEVE MADDEN (BOUGHT AT MARSHALLS) cork flats with orange tips…then added the beautiful beaded necklace my husband brought me from Alaska.

This is my way of beginning a slight transition out of my flip flops toward a more professional summer look for the classroom.  Pretty soon my bright orange will turn to burnt orange and my red will turn crimson as I begin to transition to fall…too hot to think about that today!
I am joining in today with the amazing Sacramento from Spain and other stylish bloggers to show off our summer style.  Check them out HERE!!  and MONDAY MINGLE!

  6. What a great look Pam! Love the pops of orange (great shoes!!) and I love that jacket! You always have the best necklaces! I live in Ohio and can definitely feel a change in the air. Even though it is August, you can just get the sense that fall is coming. I am still in my summer things as long as possible, but have been thinking of ways to change things up to transition into fall. Your color choices are a great example of how to transition gradually!

  7. Happy Monday Pam! Love your 'pops' of colour…orange has been my favourite colour this summer…I can't wear it but it's such a striking colour and my daughter wears it so well.
    15 years of teaching…congratulations…quite an achievement 😉 xx

  9. Wow! None of my teachers ever looked like that! 🙂 Do you actually change colours for the seasons? I never knew that! You are my style guru!

  11. We too are still in the midst of summer 100+ here in the basin of Southern California. I fell in love with San Antonio during a business trip several years ago. We stayed on the Riverwalk at the Omni La Mansion Del Rio. It was beyond fabulous. I loved the entire vibe of the Riverwalk, especially the delicious southwest cousine. I even had the opportunity to visit the Alamo.
    Your pops of color look perfect for your first day of school. It represents optimism.
