As much as I love wearing jeans, t-shirts and athletic shoes to work every day, it makes the contrast that much more pronounced when I have to dress like a grown-up.
Tonight we’re having a Soroptimist Club awards dinner and presenting our local Violet Richardson Awards and Women’s Opportunity Awards. I won’t have time to go home before the meeting, so I’ll end up wearing a suit or dress all day at work.
It’s been so long since I had a job that demanded business attire that I’ve almost run out of decent clothes. I have one nice suit that I’m pretty sure I wore to last year’s awards function, but may still wear again. I have a few skirts and tops, but nothing that’s really nice enough for this. All my older suits have either been retired already, or should be.
The only good news is that I have the option of wearing open-toed shoes because I got a pedicure last weekend before it turned cold again. Oh, but it’s cold now, so nevermind.
I guess I’d better start getting ready. This is going to take some thought…
