It’s grant-writing season at work, so today was very long and hardly anyone saw what I wore because hardly anyone saw me! I will post my work clothes for today and tomorrow when I am done with the grant. But here is a picture of me wearing my post-work outfit, which is partly in honor of my cousin Debbie, who died a year ago today. We were the same size, but she had better fashion sense and an amazing sense of style.
When my first husband and I split 22 years ago and I needed a work wardrobe, she sent me a work and casual after-work wardrobe that was beyond beautiful. Mom’s comment, “You don’t even look like you *need* a job!” about summed it up.
This blue Liz Claiborne shirt was among them. The jeans are the 528s from Mass Bay. Oh, when I come home thrashed at 8 p.m. after a day of grant writing (and haven’t even finished the grant) and the only reason I put on clothes instead of pajamas is to walk the dog, I’m gonna wear the after-work outfit two days in a row.
So hold the snark.
