“Schoolmarm” is not a term I associate with fashion. This outfit manages to be both frumpy and stuffy, with neither comfort nor style to salvage it.
Yes, Cathy does look just like the stereotyped schoolmarm depicted in movies depicting long ago times. And she matches quite closely (except for a little too much ankle showing) the guidelines for teachers I have read in collections from more than 100 years ago – when women were not allowed to be individuals. Certainly not a new fashion trend – unless we have come full circle again.
Have a good midweek day today – without having to look frumpy and stuffy as accurately described by jbarnes
Well, her new look is … distinct. Maybe they’re putting just a bit too much thought into it, though? Of course, if they didn’t, we wouldn’t have our trusty daily [eye-roll], now, would we? Oops.

She looks like a schoolmarm from my era and that was a long time ago.

This joke wouldn’t work in Canada, our teachers are decently paid.
