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.

“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.

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.
