Hmmm. What to wear?

I can’t believe that jeans cost $200. I couldn’t believe it when they went up from $40 to $70, and then $125. For those of you in your 20’s and 30’s this probably sounds ludicrous because jeans have always seemed to cost more than $70…or else they’re cool and from H&M and a steal. Many of you only know casual Fridays, and every other day too, as a reality. Many of us remember when they began and the khakis and polo shirts that became an accepted reality. Look where we are now. Uggs, jeans and t’s, flip flops. Does not seem to be working…
The Wall Street Journal had a great article in the Personal Journal today about Business Casual and the problems it’s caused for everyone. I guess Laurie Graham and I were ahead of them because we created a program to help men and women of all ages understand how to look great and appropriate for every environment and occasion. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our program on April 19th, this coming Saturday, but we’ll be back with it soon. If you want to stay up-to-date on this and other programs, email me and we’ll stay in touch. In the meantime, keep your jeans tidy, your shirts crisp and your shoes polished — and don’t forget to smile
