10th Commandment: January 17

Jan 17, 2014

As I mentioned earlier this week, a black and white handbag is a purse that you can carry from winter into spring and summer.  It lightens up all black attire and it pairs well with summer colors.  So if you’re looking for a new bag that needs to be carried in multiple seasons, consider a black and white satchel.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
