Somewear: International Business Conference

My girlfriend is traveling to Hong Kong this week for her company’s international business conference.  She needs work clothes that will pack well, not wrinkle, and be semi-comfortable.  Though this dress still seems a bit restricting, the peplum makes for a great cover incase you eat too much at lunch!

Somewear: Matinee in NY

Somewear: Matinee in NY
I just spent some time in my old stomping grounds, NYC (hence my disappearance from STB last week).  While I was there I went to a few Broadway shows including one matinee performance.  Now, I realize dressing up for a matinee doesn’t have to be all stilettos and sequins, but I was appalled to see so many people sporting ripped up jeans and oversized tees.  Maybe I’m old school, but I was raised to always dress up for the theatre.  Even if it’s a daytime show, it can’t just be me and all the blue hairs keeping it classy- people!
