Jasmyn Blackburn, affectionately known as Jazzy, 23, is a kindergarten teacher at a small school in Indiana. She is living out her dream life, filled with sequins, sparkle, and smiles. On her first day as a teacher, she arrived wearing a sequined apple dress, proving that she wasn't trying to blend in but rather to make her young students feel loved and excited about learning.
Jasmyn is a firm believer in "dopamine dressing," where she wears colorful, sparkly, and fun clothes that make her smile. Her personal style is simple – she wears clothes that bring her joy.
The 9-month-old teacher has earned nearly 600,000 TikTok followers who tune in to watch her get dressed for work. Her unique fashion sense, characterized by colourful fabrics, glitter, sequins, and a refusal to apologise for it, has earned her a dedicated fan base. This style is deeply rooted in her childhood, where she was nicknamed 'Snazzy Jazzy' in first grade. Blackburn's teaching career has allowed her to embrace her inner child with colourful dressing, a style that is now welcomed in her kindergarten classroom.
Her wardrobe is predominantly school-themed, with 90% of her pieces featuring teacher patches, sequined letters, apples, crayons, and ABCs. This collection spans from her bedroom-turned-dressing-room, painted entirely pink, to her favorite shopping destinations like Queen of Sparkles, Sparkle in Pink, ReallyRexBoutique, and Depop.
Blackburn's most expensive outfit is a Queen of Sparkles polka-dot set with sequined patches, which retails for around $400. However, she believes that one special piece per month is enough to create a large, mix-and-match wardrobe without repeating outfits often.
Blackburn's journey with colourful dressing wasn't always smooth. Initially, she shopped frequently, once a week, but has now become more strategic in her purchases. She advises budding fashion enthusiasts to start with what they already have and experiment with colors to bring personality into their work wardrobe. For Blackburn, fashion is about feeling joyful and excited to get dressed in the morning. Her goal is to make the world a little more colourful and smiley, one video at a time.
