I am a committee chair. I need a uniform, but why can't I, who deals almost exclusively with parents, wear a blue blazer, grey skirt, floppy neck tie, and blue pumps? Why is this a "formal" uniform limited to "professional occassions?" As a very formal and professional person, I am extremely uncomfortable wearing a khaki shirt covered in multi colored patches and olive A-line skirt. I am just as able to do my job in one uniform as the other. However, just putting on that khaki and olive makes me itch. (It's the weave, I think.)
